Trade Offer - His Sproles / DeSean Jackson for Rice

Postby jackblack » Fri Nov 06, 2009 8:40 am

Been offered the above deal. Doesn't seem all that bad for me but wanted to get the advice of fellow cafers'

14 Team League - Start 2 RB, 2 WR and 1 WR / RB

QB - Cutler, Flacco
RB - SJax, Rice, Maroney, McCoy, Brown
WR - Colston, C Johnson, Burleson, Bennett

I like DeSean but am leary on losing my best RB. I'm already thin at RB and not sure of Sproles is consistent enough.

I don't think I would do this. I think Rice will be a top 5 back the rest of the way. He's the clear main guy in Baltimore. Who know what is going to happen in SD. They keep giving it to LT even though Sproles is the better back. I love D. Jackson, but I would not take the hit at RB.

help?

This is not a good deal for you. You lose a BIG chunk of your RB points. Sproles will come NO WHERE near Rice. Desean is a great receiver, but he is a big play guy. Yes he has been producing with the big plays, but how consistent can that be?

If your league counts all possible yards then your side in the deal is actually better, but in standard leagues you need to keep Rice.

Bennett get rid of him. Why is he on yuor roster??

What is available?
