Don't do that. Sproles and McFadden are way worse than Westbrook. Also, you can't give up Boldin. You would be losing WAY too much.

And sorry to hear you've started 0-2. I'm in the same boat (dead last in points too!)

It's a tough call but I don't think you do this trade

Rivers is a slight upgrade over McNabb.

You are giving up the two best players in this trade in Westbrook and Boldin, along with Harvin's upside (2 TDs in 2 games)

Sproles will lose touches once LT comes back. DMC is a Raider and therefore shouldn't be trusted.

I'd ride it out with Westbrook/Forte as your runningbacks and stick with Boldin/Roy Williams as your WRs. Pick up Kolb if you have to at QB. He didn't look horrid last week.

Westbrook hurt his ankle thooo and its the one he had surgery on during the offseason!

hes gonna be questionable all year now!

i have been down on Westbrook all year and i just dont know

I know that giving up boldin and harvin is gonna hurt me! sooo what to do what to do!

Rivers can help me out thoo i believe

[jetsflagboyz]

I don't think you do this either.

Boldin was awesome this week. Ladanian could come back. Fargas could eat up some carries when healthy.

I think your WR core -- especially in a PPR league -- would be really weak.

Isaac Bruce is a disaster. I think he leads the team in receptions with 8.

Check out mine.

Thanks for the feedback on my trade question.

I would do the trade IF you think you could trade for another WR or get one from the WW... Getting Rivers, Sproles and McFadden is great but your WRs would be a tad weak.

[mcace]

Thanks for the help on mine. I definitely would not do this trade. Sproles is not a strong player, and DMC will perpetually be splitting carries. Boldin and Harvin are both solid receivers. And when you drafted Westy, you basically knew you were gonna get a questionable every game. Ride it out, it's worth it. Also, try to look at this like it is based on draft picks. You're trading much higher picks than he is.

[jmalk25]

what about if we switched up the deal...

so i would get Slaton or (im trying to push for) Deangelo W.

Sooo he wants west/boldin/harvin

and i would get

slaton/rivers/bruce
or
slaton/sproles/rivers
or
williams/bruce/coles/rivers

MY TEAM

QB(1) - Mcnabb, Kolb
RB(2)- Forte,Westbrook,Lendale, Parker, Mccoy
WR(3)- Boldin,Roy W., Harvin,Burleson,Bennett
TE(1)- Carlson
K- Nedney
D- Jets

Thanks for the help on mine.

I'm more inclined to do this trade then everyone else, but not enough to say you should pull the trigger.

Harvin might be the wildcard in this trade. He could end up being a pretty valuable guy.

Stay put for now.

I'm not completely opposed to this but just like someone else said.. If you feel you could turn around and either trade for a solid #2 wr or pick manningham up off waiver wire I'd go with slaton, sproles, and rivers. If I could substitute Deangelo for either of the two RB's I'd do it. I'm not huge on Bruce or Coles so I'd make this move based on trading or picking up a solid WR. If you don't feel you can do that, I'd stay put (but barely). I worry about Westbrook's health and Boldin tends to be inconsistent/unpredictable although they are studs when they are stable. Hope that helps. Thanks for responding to mine!
