Trying to make a big trade please comment WHIR!

[karl0528]

I just sent this trade to another owner:

I Get: Marques Colston and Pierre Garcon

He Get's: Derrick Mason, Glen Coffee, and Joseph Addai

He has Frank Gore, Jonathon Stewart, and Lesean McCoy as his RB's and Braylon Edward, Donald Driver, and Boldin (in addition to the two I am trying to get)

Do you think I can get this done since he has really no RB's? Let me know what you thing and post a link and I'll return the favor. Thanks and good luck this week

Thanks for the help. Depends on the kind of owner he is, but I think he will accept the trade. It really doesn't look that bad to me and he is hurting with the backs a little bit. I say you got it.

Maybe -- depends on what he thinks of Addai, how willing he is to risk being a receiver down (Mason is questionable this week, though he almost never misses games, so he still doesn't look like a bad bet), and how he feels about being thin at wr. It would be close for me.

Who's on the ww? If a guy like Harrison is available (some passable rb fill-in), it'll hurt your chances somewhat.

But it's a fair offer, no harm in asking. I'd say 50-50 he accepts. Thanks for your help on mine.

there is no way I would accept that offer. Masson is on the waver in my league and Addai is headed there if D.Brown keeps playing so well.

Mason is kind of marginal, I agree. (Plus, he's questionable for this week.) But that's an exaggeration on Addai. Brown has been playing well enough, but he hasn't really outshone Addai. The last two weeks, Addai has about 5 ypc, Brown's only around 3.6. Plus, the guy really has very little for running backs. This trade gives him a so-so back in Addai, plus an excellent one-week play in Coffee who happens to be the handcuff to his primary back. In a deep league, it might work, though I'd probably try to counter first.

I wouldn't take that trade if I were him, but if you get it...good job. Essentially you get a starting receiver (Colston) and give up three bench players who are at best bye week starters. I say propose the trade and if he accepts then you did well
