My Team: RB (start 2): A.Peterson, Donald Brown, L.Maroney, B.Wells, S.Greene WR (start 3): V.Jackson, G.Jennings, D.Mason, N.Burleson, B.Berrian TE (start 1): J. Carlson
His Team: RB: Brandon Jacobs, Chris Johnson, Rashard Mendenhall, Ahmad Bradshaw WR: Santana Moss, Devin Hester, Miles Austin, Jeremy Maclin, Roy Williams TE: Brent Celek
all TDs = 6 pts, 10 yds rush/rec = 1 pt, no PPR
The key is that we start 3 WRs, so a lot of owners are looking for solid #2 & #3 WRs right about now (although no trades have actually been made in our league this year).
I was offered R.Mendenhall & Roy Williams for my V.Jackson and S.Greene.
Do I accept, reject, or counteroffer? (Note that he mentioned in his offer that he didn't offer Jacobs instead of Mendenhall b/c Jacobs and Bradshaw should be on the same team for handcuffing purposes.)
Some possible counteroffers I thought of:
His R.Mendenhall & Roy Williams for my G.Jennings and S.Greene. His C.Johnson & Roy Williams for my V.Jackson and S.Greene. His R.Mendenhall & M.Austin for my V.Jackson and S.Greene. His R.Mendenhall & D.Hester for my V.Jackson and S.Greene.
If you can, please offer up what you think the best couple of trades options are (for me that has a chance of being accepted by him), including any I did not think of.
i'm a vincent jackson owner too and he's just been so good to me this year. you could definitely use some help at RB, but i agree with the other post about the counter and austin miles. shonne greene is good, even tho last week's performance doesn't necessarily back that statement up, and i just think you're giving up a little much for what your getting in return. so you can either counter for another rb or wr.
Thanks for the help on mine. I view Williams and Greene as non-issues because they both won't be good fantasy options this year (unless Jones gets hurt). So it boils down to what RB can you get for Jax. And I think you can do better than Mendenhall. Johnson would be a good choice. But I wouldn't trade Jackson unless you are getting a top RB.
12 Team League. We start 2 QBs and get .5 PPR, otherwise standard scoring QBs: Stafford, Fitzpatrick, Collins RBs: Charles, Mendenhall, Best, Starks, Carter, Karim WRs: D. Jackson, Marshall, S. Smith, Green, TE: Hernandez, Cook
You are giving up a top 3-5 WR in Jax and you are not being paid off approriately. You can do better than RMend.
If you are going to make this deal I would include Mason or Burleson. Or if its Jennings ask for Austin in return. But as it stands right now, I do not do this deal.
i agree with spodog. the deal to do is the one for chris johnson. you will lose a bit a wr, but CJ and AP should be a lethal duo at RB. thanks for the help on mine! good luck
