Maybe packaging Steven Jackson and Malcom Floyd for him or something?
Looking at your roster I'm guessing there's teams that are hard up for some talent at RB. With your depth it's not like you can't afford it. Foster and Best are going to out perform Jackson this year anyways.
I've been thinking a lot about trying to trade for him. My fellow owners are trying to be hardasses and not trade much....which is stupid. this is the team that AJ is on
QB Drew Brees, NO QB RB Rashard Mendenhall, Pit RB RB LeSean McCoy, Phi RB RB/WR Jonathan Stewart, Car RB P WR Andre Johnson, Hou WR WR Chad Ochocinco, Cin WR TE Brent Celek, Phi TE D/ST Jets D/ST, NYJ D/ST K Ryan Longwell, Min K Bench Donald Driver, GB WR Bench Kevin Kolb, Phi QB Bench Steve Slaton, Hou RB P Bench Pierre Garcon, Ind WR Bench Patriots D/ST, NE D/ST Bench Greg Olsen, Chi TE Bench Neil Rackers, Hou K
Hmmmm... that's gonna be tough. Any trade involving AJ is going to leave his WRs in rough shape

Oh my LORD! fantastic team!! With Foster, Best and Charles as your backups!? Floyd is a huge breakout candidate, as well. Schaub is the real deal - don't let the stats fool you - he finished #5, sure, but he was actually #3 during actual fantasy weeks played. GB defense is a turnover machine. I'm not crazy about your backup QB - I'd almost drop him and pick up a depth TE (is Zach Miller available?, if so, take him. Now.) and pick up a bye week QB when it comes time. You never know who will be streaking at that time. On the whole, I would pay to have that team. thanks for the input on mine

First off, kudos on your depth at RB, really that's pretty awesome. The best kind of problem to have is to decide who will start at the flex every week. Your WRs, IMO, could be stronger. Maybe use someone who's hype is high right now (ehem, Best) and send a deal to another team shallow at RB? I think it'd be worth a look. Good job on picking up Floyd and Harvin just in case. Keep and eye on Naanee to see which WR Rivers likes more.
Otherwise, solid QB, a sky's the limit TE, and good K and DEF. No real obvious weaknesses here. IMO, great job and good luck!
Thanks a lot for the input guys. I agree I could use some work at WR and I have a trade in place for Jennings, so we will how that goes. A lot of people don't like cassel which I find interesting. I'm not huge on him but on schaubs bye week...KC plays Detroit...so if I only use him that week he should do great for me. If a better qb appears on WW or I get offered a trade I will get rid of cassel, but right now since schaub is healthy I think staying put is the best.
Thnks for the help on mine! I posted on this topic before.........and I still cant believe your squad! Hahah its crazy that you have so much talent and great fantasy players..My advice, same as before, package out a rb/wr for a top flight wr .you have enough depth to do so...but even if you ran with this team, you look pretty good to take it down! Good luck!
