I would do this trade for sure. Sims-walker doesnt start for you but mendenhall definitely would start over donald brown. And he has been looking really solid recently.

Please help

Definitely agreed with the post above. You'd be giving up a non-starter for someone who could be a big help to you at the running back position. I'd say it's a very good trade for you.
My Team:
M. Ryan / D. Garrard / A. Smith
M. Forte / J. Stewart / J. Snelling / J. Lewis / L. Johnson
D. Jackson / A. Collie / P. Harvin / J. Maclin / M. Floyd
V. Davis

Thanks for the help with mine. I'd make this trade in a heartbeat. A starting RB for a WR on a streaky team - absolutely, without a doubt.

i wouldnt do this trade.

Donald brown has a great matchup, and either way..you can start Tashard Choice...Choice is a better choice than donald bown..he is more explosive than forte.

This trade really hurts your Wideout depth..you have a semi-injured megatron.

I would keep Sims walker anyday..you have good depth at RB already..no need to add more

and for your info...mendenhall is up against Vikings sick run defense.

Expect this to be a shootout too...while steelers are a great team..they are sure to be in a shootout with vikings..especially with an injured CB. they will probly pass more in this game

i think you are better off starting Choice to be honest with you..he will probly have the same production as mendenhall this game..if not better. Mendenhall is not matchup proof..at least not proven..viking run d is a real deal test.

and like i said..think about your wideout depth you are losing..you have plenty of RBs

Yes I have good depth at rb, but all of them but Thomas are streaky. Any suggestions?

im putting my money on choice over brown.

remember...mendenhall is up agianst vikings run d, and steelers have a bye coming up as well.

i think you are better off just dealing with starting choice this week while sims is on his bye.

I would do it. Mendenhall is a must start. All signs in Indy, including recent comments by Bill Polian that they like the running back mix, are that Addai will continue to get the lions share and be in on passing downs. Make the trade.

id say dont make the trade.

Put it this way..i put my money on Choice putting up similar production than mendenhall this week..if not better.

your already have excellent Rb depth..all you do is lose a WR stud and WR depth just so you can have a RB this week..you already have plenty of RBs..why hurt your WR depth just for one week when choice and/or brown will put up similar production to mendenhall vs a sick run d like vikings.

I strongly recommend not doing this trade
