Who Wins this Trade?

Postby Hippo45 » Sat Sep 04, 2010 1:34 am

Non-ppr league that starts 2 RB, 2 WR and no flex. Ignoring other people on the rosters of both teams, who do you think wins this trade?

Team A Gets:
Calvin Johnson
Ryan Grant
Shiancoe
Saints Defense

Team B Gets:
Arian Foster
Donald Driver
Pierre Garcon
Jermaine Gresham

Foster and Grant cancel each other out, though I actually like Foster more in non-ppr.
Megatron is much better than Driver + Garcon, if you only start 2 WR with no flex.
Neither is a top TE option.
Saints DST isn't that great.

Team A wins, thanks to a legit WR1.

Last year Driver put up more points than Johnson. Yes, Johnson was hurt, but Driver plays on the better team that will get more scoring opportunities. Plus, I feel that Garcon could put up some decent stats this year if he stays healthy. Manning likes to spread the ball around so he should have a decent opportunity to get a lot of points.

this is really hard to deside without seeing who the other players are on the teams, and the needs of each team. depending on what's the other wr lined up with calvin johnson could sway me that way or the other way.

i think calvin will have a huge year this year, if bradford keeps performing close to the way he's peforming in preseason, we've already seen what calvin can do without a qb, we'll i think he has one now.

shincoe and gresham are a wash imo, only cus i'mhigh on greshm, give shincoe the slight edge with sidney out.

grants good for solid production each week, but i personally favor arian, and i think he'll finish higher than grant by season's end.

so obviously calvin isn't better both those recievers put together, i'd new to know who calvins lined up next to, to make this desision, but almost any reciever lined up next to calvin is probable gonna beat those two guys this year.

arian better than grant

i live in louisiana, and i don't even consider saints defense that strong, just pick a defense offthe wire each week.

i think its pretty much a wash without knowing who calvins linedup against, hard desision. i guess i'd kinda lean to team a, even though i have huge expectations for foster.(don't knw when kubiack might pull him out for fumbles, kinda worrysome)
I only live by 3 rules: Eat Twat, Smoke Pot, and Smile Alot
