Torain for Garcon?

Postby kelostd » Wed Oct 13, 2010 10:03 pm

Picked up Torain off waivers a few weeks ago and now appears to be in line for several starts, if not the whole season. As you can see, I've very thin at WR and received an offer of Garcon for Torain. The owner does not want Bush and is stretching trying to get LT instead of Torain. Won't do that. But is Torain a fair deal? I always worry about Shananhan Backs, but he does have a habit of producing some good ones. Should I hold Torain in case he does it again here? Or grab Garcon to help my WR out?

If either ends up being a keeper, Torain would be a 13th rd pick next year, and Garcon would be an 11th.

I would wait. Torain will get the majority of the carries and in all likely hood will have a nice game in the next couple weeks which immediately inflates his value past Garcon territory. And as much of a need as you have, Garcon would not be an automatic start for your by any stretch of the imagination.

Hold. You will be able to get more.

I think thats a fair deal, really you were without Torain just a few weeks ago, and now you can cash in.......Sure he might get the rock the rest of the way, but you never know Shanahan.

Besides you are LOADED at RB, so no cause for concern there.

Garcon is a nice "buy low" right now.

I'd wait a week and/or try selling him a bit higher than Garcon. The deal itself is alright, but I think you can sell higher.
