Peterson trade?...do i break up my team a bit for him? "whir

Postby bryan1327 » Sat Sep 26, 2009 8:17 am

It is a 12 team league, PPR, one flex (RB-WR-TE) standard other scoring.

Here is what he wants..Bush, Jennings, and TO or Bowe for Peterson, Gage, and Berrian...In our league it has to be an even amount of players given to each other. Do I stand pat with my 2-0 squad, or go after Peterson? And whom might you counter with?

Here is my team..* are my starters

QB- Cutler*, Palmer, Quinn
RB- Turner*, Bush*, L Washington, Mendenhall, J Charles, Graham
WR- Jennings*, TO*, Bowe*, Henry, Maclin
TE- Gonzalez*, Finley
K- Gostkowski*
D- Giants*

His Team

QB- Rodgers*, Collins
RB- Peterson*, K Smith*, R Williams*, D Brown, S Green,
WR- Gage*, S Moss*, Berrian, Breaston, A Bryant, L Moore
TE- Shockey*, Lee
K- Gould*
D- Chargers*, Panthers

Thanks for any thoughts...

So you would still have either TO or Bowe as your WR1? It would really deplete your WR corps, though. In a PPR, sitting at 2-0...I might stay put. You'd be giving up a high-end PPR RB in Bush, plus two of your 3 best WRs. Peterson is great, but you do have Turner.

If you really wanted Peterson, I might counter with Turner/Jennings, TO, or Bowe for Peterson/Gage. Offer TO first, and if he says no up the ante with Bowe and then Jennings last. That way you'd still have 2 solid RBs and 2 solid WRs.

Good luck, and please see mine:

Passing TDs = 4
All other TDs = 6
100 yd rushing bonus = 4
PPR
All other basic scoring

VERY strict rosters...MUST have:

2 QBs (start 1)
3 RBs (start 2)
4 WRs (start 2)
2 TEs (start 1)
2 D/STs (start 1)
2 Ks (start 1)
Flex--ANY offensive player

I don't think you can make this trade. You don't have enough depth at WR to take the hit of losing Jennings & TO/Bowe. I love AD, but don't know if you can sustain the hit. Not to mention you lose Bush who still has a lot of value in a PPR league

I'd stay put for now
