Slaton vs Westbrook - WHIR

[tjdoren]

Who would you rather have the remainder of the season, Slaton or Westbrook? I own Slaton, and the Westbrook owner has put him "on the trading block", wanting a different RB. I drafted Slaton ahead of Westbrook. But Westy has an easier schedule remaining, and also already had his bye week. If you like Westbrook, should I try to get a little extra with him?

I am 2 games behind my division leader. I'm loaded with underperformers...so I don't have a lot of appealing trade options.

Post a link...I'll help in return.

My roster:
QB: Schaub, Ryan
RB: Slaton, L.Johnson, L.White, Buckhalter, F.Jackson
WR/TE (we play them as a flex): Calvin Johnson, Jennings, Witten, Olsen, Massaquoi
D: Broncos
K: Folk

His roster:
D Brees, K Orton
R Bush, S Morris, B Wells , B Westbrook, G Coffee, M Bush
A Boldin, B Marshall, V Jackson, E Royal
M Prater
Saints, Dolphins

Forgot to mention...although Slaton has more touches and yards this year, he's only averaging 3.2 yds/carry, versus 4.2 for Westbrook.

Houston will be playing from behind, Westbrook will be playing with the lead... I can see Westbrook getting lots of late-game touches to run out the clock. Houston has issues abandoning the run. I say go with Westie.

Help please?

This is a matter of personal preference. Westbrook is the better play when healthy, but has injury issues every year. If you make this trade, make sure to pickup McCoy as the handcuff.
