What is your scoring like? I'm inclined to say no. You have nice depth at RB with AP, Foster, Forte, I'd see if he'd take Foster instead. You're line up might be a little better with Brady-Foster-Forte but you he gets the better end of the trade and you lose depth.

Please help with my trade question in the Dwill/Boldin for AP thread.

No chance, you can play the match ups with the QB's that you have. Holding onto AP will be a wise choice. Matt Ryan is not a bad option considering the rest of your squad. My whole issue, and I have Foster in 2 leagues, is discovering if Fosters performance was a one hit wonder. It doesn't look like a fluke to me but just to be safe wait a week or two to make sure he's for real. You've got guaranteed points in AP plus, how would you feel having to go up against Peterson in the playoffs or the championship. holding onto those backs and riding Matty Ice for the season is the ticket. Plus, as he season gets deeper and the pool of quality backs gets thinner these trade offers should get sweeter.

gotta get a solid RB back with Brady if you even think of moving AP. I agree

No way.

AP holds way more value than Brady.

Counter Forte/Ryan for Brady.

I'd rather sell high on Forte than Foster.

Forte managed 50 yards on the ground against the Lions and repeatedly got stone walled in short yardage situations - repeatedly from the 1.

He's not gonna put up 150 yards recieveing weekly.

The Bears line sucks.

Sell now before Dallas mauls the Bears.

Foster is on a fantastic offense, it's his job, his line is fantastic and Houston has the weapons on the outside (AJ, Jones, Water), down the middle (Daniels), and a good QB (Schaub) to keep defenses from gearing up to stop the run.

IMO Houston has a much easier schedule as well - KC, SD, OAK, DEN, INDY, JAX, TEN x2 all look to be very appealing matchups

Bears on the other hand - SEA, BUF, DET all tht I would call "+" matchups (not to mention NE, MIN, NYJ weeks 14-16)
