Trading Sproles for LaDainian Tomlinson

[ScarletKnight]

Another owner is desperate and is offering to trade me LT2 for my Sproles. Normally, I'd take the offer and never look back but given LT2's injury situation and Sproles having good games, I'm afraid that even when LT2 is healthy again, he would be splitting carries 50/50 with Sproles. Am I crazy not to take it?

Non-PPR standard ESPN league. If I trade for LT2 and he doesn't play week 3, I would likely start Addai.

Return yards?

I think LT will have a serious impact later in the season to give Sproles a break. This is a tough one... need to post your lineup

I have LT in one league and I wanted to trade for Sproles while keeping LT. I thought he was going to have a breakout year... but I just don't know...

Is there anyone else he'd trade you?

[ScarletKnight]

Thank you for your help DukeVBall. I accepted the final trade offer of LT2 + Mike Bell for Sproles. Two injured guys but I think the matchup I have this week isn't going to be too difficult so I can afford to wait for LT2's health. I just couldn't reject an offer of a starting RB in exchange for his backup

Congrats brother!!! I like the upside of that for just 1 "backup" player!

So need your help on this last one!
