Is Driver enough of an Upgrade?? WHIR

[nhgent]

For starters, I'm in a 10 team PPR league that plays head to head. I'm looking to improve at WR2/3. I've got a guy thats looking to deal Jamal Charles & Donald Driver potentially for Turner and either Housh/Garcon. Is the Driver enough of an upgrade at WR to make up for the difference in Turner vs Charles (also noting that I have Foster to play at RB as well).

Any and all thoughts are welcome. Leave a link and I'll help you.

Here's my current roster:

QB Jay Cutler (Chi - QB)
WR Miles Austin (Dal - WR)
WR Chad Ochocinco (Cin - WR)
WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh (Bal - WR)
RB Adrian Peterson (Min - RB)
RB Michael Turner (Atl - RB)
TE Brent Celek (Phi - TE)
BN Donovan McNabb (Was - QB)
BN Arian Foster (Hou - RB)
BN Pierre Garcon (Ind - WR)
BN Mohamed Massaquoi (Cle - WR)
BN Clinton Portis (Was - RB)
BN Fred Jackson (Buf - RB)
BN Zach Miller (Oak - TE)
BN Darren McFadden (Oak - RB)
K Dan Carpenter (Mia - K)
DEF Green Bay (GB - DEF)

Thanks for the post on mine.

Usually, I like to avoid giving away the best player in a trade. This goes double for the case where I am giving away my first round draft choice. I wouldn't make the deal, I think Turner is way too talented to let go. Especially knowing that last week's injury was mild/insignificant, I'd keep him and let him rake in the fantasy pts.

**Edit: I just realized you have AP as well, so I guess Turner wasn't your first pick, but still worth a whole lot in my eyes!

Yeah, Turner was my keeper with the 19th pick...and I can't keep him next year.

Actually, while I normally wouldn't like the trade, you are really deep at RB and not at all at WR, but you start 3 WR. I don't think Driver is enough of an upgrade over Garcon (I don't like Housh) to warrant going from Turner to Charles, but are there any other WRs you could target that are slightly better? You definitely have the depth to trade Turner and still be able to start Foster or DMC.

Thanks for the response on mine.

I would be very hesitant to make that deal. Jones was KCs go to back last week and I think that they like that he's more proven then Charles is at this point. I see them splitting carries almost half and half as the season progresses unless one just starts running wild. On the other had, it is just the Micheal Turner Show in Atlanta. He's going to produce and produce big. Driver would be an upgrade in WR, but I think that the cost of Tuner is too high. Keep your 1-2 RB punch unless you get an offer that you can't refuse; refuse this one.

I agree with everyone else who posted here as well, do not make this deal. Your giving up the best talent in the trade for players who WONT make the same impact on your team. I know you wanna deal him bc you cant keep him for next year but he isnt injured anmore and is a dominant back that you can get alot more for than a backup rb and a #2wr in GB.. Hope this helps

Please help me with mine..

I'll agree with the others as well - don't do it - you're giving up more than you'll get back from the trade.
