It'd be nice but I don't think he'll accept this trade. I have Mendenhall too and I don't think I could fetch Williams for him just yet. One more week similar to this past one though and I think it might work. Of course you should try anyways and see what the other owner says.

Oooh...now would be a good time to swing this if you can talk him into it. I really like Mendy's potential in the years to come, but he's still going to have to compete with Fast Willie when he returns. Not saying he can't beat him out, but they are going to split carries in bigger chunks than Deangelo and Stewart.

I'm not sure if someone would cough DWill up for that. Mendy has been great, but whenever Willie comes back, he's back to his old roll. Look at McCoy. He had a great game without Westbrook and now his 2nd string again.....same with Coffee & Harrison too.

Try it, but I doubt he'll budge.

Help with mine? viewtopic.php?f=18&t=454512

Never hurts to try, but I don't think he'll go for it. If he does congrats on a smart move. Stewart doesn't seem to be the vulture threat he was last year, and although I'm excited about Mendy I don't think he's on the level as DWill yet.

Good luck and please see mine:

Then what about trying to offer Barber? He's coming off an injury, but he had been beasting it up until then.

I have Mendenhall and I wouldn't trade him for Williams. No way! Let's see, where to begin...How about Williams is only averaging 3.7 yds/carry and is on a crappy team that has to air the ball out because they fall behind early. When Slow Willie Parker finally does return from turf toe (which is anyone's guess because turf toe lingers and lingers), he will be in the backseat with Mendenhall in the driver's seat. People still seem to be hung-up on what Williams did the second half of last year. That was last year folks... ;-)
