Now there's a new OC and his receiving yards (much like with Forte), I don't see as lasting. Peterson will get the carries and the points.
Finley has 265/0 TD's and Miller has 156/1 TD, so I don't get the love for Finley at the moment. He's been good, but he's not Gates in his prime and I don't see him being able to maintain high production if he has to be double teamed. I'd go for Miller, because I think he can have quality games and Peterson just outweighs Gore and FInely.
Thanks for the help. I was offered Jacoby Jones and Witten for Floyd. Take that?
now that we are starting bye weeks, i bet a lot of those guys with 2 TEs will start dropping 1 to fill in BYE players. Its already happening in my leagues. In a 14 person league, Winslow and Witten were dropped this week. So if you are patient you may get a FA TE for nothing. Tony Moeaki and Tony Scheffler arent available in your league by any chance? Id play either of them over Lewis.
I'm unsure what effect a new OC will have on Gore's touches, but I don't think they'll go down too significantly. It's more a spread attack, trying to get people other than Davis and Gore available to catch passes. That said - I just don't see the value of a deal that involves a "stud" TE. There are a TON of them out there putting up consistent solid numbers. I think this is barely a win for you, since the gap between AP and Gore is not much less than the gap between Finley and (insert TE here). Good luck!

I pretty much got Moss for trading away Gates. I was a bit uncertain after making it but I'm hoping you're right about the TE thing. Hopefully I can find a decent one

He asked me about my Peterson for his Gore and Finley. I asked him about my Calvin and Barber for his White. He needs a bye week filler and isn't a big fan of Calvin but I think I can get this done.
I own CJ and I would definably trade him and Marion Barber for Roddy White. CJ's situation just drags him down.
