Andre for Brees?

Postby hammertoes » Mon May 17, 2010 5:27 am

So an owner in my league just asked if I'd be interested in swaping my Andre Johnson for his Drew Brees straight up. He's freaked out because Brees is on the cover of Madden.

Either player would be kept in the second round.

I had been planning on keeping Gore, AJ, Deangelo, & JStew, and trying to find value at QB in the later rounds. There would be 3 teams NOT keeping a QB, and the best available would be Favre, Cutler, Flacco, Ryan, Eli, Kolb.

But we DO score 6 pts for passing TDs, and having the (arguably) best QB in the game is tempting, but then I feel I might be scrambling at WR, as the best available would be Desean Jackson (maybe), Bowe, both Steve Smiths, Sidney Rice, Ocho & many of them wouldn't be there for my first pick that wouldn't come until the third round.

My first instinct was to tell him no, but the deal is still on the table. What would you do?

I have AJ well ahead of Brees. Unless you start 2 QB's pass on the deal.
