Roddy White for Frank Gore? WHIR

[rich101682]

I'm in a 14 team keeper league (keep 4). Scoring is 6 points for rushing/receiving touchdown, 15 rushing/receiving yards per point. No points per reception.

I've been weak at running back most of the year but I've been able to stay afloat with really strong WR play. I was offered Frank Gore for Roddy White today. Normally I'd jump all over this, but it seems like the 49ers aren't putting as much of an emphasis on the run these days. Plus Gore has put together a few crappy games and been banged up. Should I pull the trigger on this deal? The guy offering me the trade also has Ray Rice and Matt Forte. Would either of them be a better target for me?

My Roster:

QB: Carson Palmer
RB: Stephen Jackson
RB: Tim Hightower
WR: Roddy White
WR: Randy Moss
TE: Heath Miller
W/R: Chad Ochocinco
BN: Willis McGahee
BN: Alex Smith
BN: Percy Harvin
BN: Larry Johnson
BN: Dustin Keller
BN: Derrick Ward

if its not broke and your winning I wouldnt fix it. Frank Gore will come back to earth and Atlanta will continue to use Roddy White. Dont lets the last few games throw you off. Gore had 1 good year, and a bunch of years were owners cried themselves to sleep. White is a top tier WR, you need more then Gore for that.


In a single word: Rice

i think it's a fair trade...although i'd rather have Rice than Gore

with the trade you'd be starting
RB: S-Jax, Gore (or Rice if you can snag him)
WR: Moss, Ocho
W/R: Hightower or Harvin

i like that better than having to rely on Hightower at RB, especially since it's no PPR

personally I would take Gore in a second...V.Davis is being successful so defences will zone in on him...and free up Gore for lots of yards

i would also do this trade i think adding gore will really help your backfield and be able to start hightower at you flex, in my opinion gore will produce more consistently than white going forward

I flipped Chad Ochocinco and Darren Sharper (We play individual defensive players) for Gore. Sharper I picked up off waivers a few weeks ago and my depth at WR makes losing Ocho easier to stomach. Plus, I feel like a lot of Sharper's value comes from INTs and those can be pretty unpredictable. So now I've got:

QB: Carson Palmer
RB: Stephen Jackson
RB: Frank Gore
WR: Randy Moss
WR: Roddy White
TE: Heath Miller
Flex: Tim Hightower/Percy Harvin

Good trade?

the trade is pretty even to me....i think you should stick to your team unless you are able to get Ray Rice...

help me out please???
