RB to trade for?

[SameSongNDance]

I just went all in on PT and Ronnie

Went:
My
Colston
Hightower
For:
Ronnie Brown
Manningham

and then
My:
Forte
Harvin
For:
PT
Megatron


Three way tie for first, hoping they give me the push to the Top down the stretch.

Wow, lol who would trade PT and Megatron for Forte and Harvin? That's ludicrous!

I offered, Forte for PT straight up, and he countered with that. I was like okay... V Jax emerged as his WR1, and I guess he grew impatient with Calvin's inconsistency this year or worrisome his knee was bad?

In terms of RB, he has LT, so I imagine he was name shopping at the fact of lining LT and Forte as he two Backs.

Lol name recognition is more persuasive than statistics in fantasy football...gotta love it.

what do you guys think about Brian Westbrook and Marshawyn Lynch. I haven't looked at their schedules but their stocks are pretty low right now.

Hmmm..I'm personally gunning for Westbrook, I want him as my #2 in one league. With Westbrook, there will always be an above average risk of injury accompanying him, especially at his current age. If you have enough depth, I think he might be worth trading for. As for wear and tear, he has very little on him for this season. He may be poised to have a Westy-type second half. He's still averaging 4.8 YPC and is still the top dog in PHI. McCoy will garner more attention, stealing 7-10 carries a game, but Westy will see the lions share of carries. Plus, Westy's upside is still there, especially in PPR leagues, as usual.

As for Lynch. Unless Trend Edwards figures out how to pass the ball, his value will continue to be hindered. Honestly, any below average production from him can directly be attributed to BUFs offense. They are absolutely atrocious. I'd take a wait and see approach with Lynch, although if he does breakout, it may be too late.
