Did he offer the trade or you?

What does his roster look like?

not sure what the scoring is, but i think it's pretty hard to trade Brees. you would have a nice upgrade at RB though...i think it depends on scoring if qb's get 4 pts/td.... then yes. if they get 6 pts/TD.... no. however, i think forte has a good chance to bounce back next year. i've heard he played hurt all year and things are going to change on the offensive side for the bears, big time.

Yeah, like if all TDs = 6, then Brees probably outscores them all.

Keep Forte....he sprained his mcl in week 3 and kept playing. Forte is going to bounce back....and you're in a PPR format. He finished the year third among RB's in receptions even though the O line was a disaster. I'd stay put.

[quote="danielgreen091"]12 team dynasty PPR

I give up
Brees
Forte

I Get
Garrard <--ick
Barber <--inconsistent
McCoy <--potential, but risky
Kevin Smith <--OK, but doesn't do a lot for me, personally
12 overall rookie pick <--crapshoot

As disappointing as Forte was this year, I wouldn't have anything to do with this deal.

Return the favor?

You don't have a decent backup to Brees, stay FAR away.

You have some holes on your team for sure, but you need to trade Brees and get two huge upgrades to your team. If you cannot get a stud WR, quality TE, and decent RB2 out of the deal forget it.

You might want to try something like this:

Brees/Schefler/Burleson/F. Jones
for
Cutler/Charles/VJax/Celek
type of deal.

I might try the risk/reward angle with this...
