Trade to land Orton to save my season please help!!

[Twelve Inch Ditka]

PPR League QB's 4 point TD's 1 point per 20 yards ...RB/WR/TE 6 pt TD's .1 per yard

Team is shopping Kyle Orton. I would like to land Sir Orton. Team shopping Orton is showing interest in my Garcon and Rice. Not sure I am going to trade Rice but what do you think would be a good trade to land Orton. I also have #1 Waiver priority and could target Deion Branch to take place of a traded receiver. I also play this team this week.

Is Vick and Garcon and Thomas Jones enough to get Orton and Spiller and I pick up Branch off waivers or is that too much?

My Roster (1-5)
Kolb
Vick
Rice
Torain
T. Jones
S. Greene
Colston
Garcon
Crabtree
D Bryant
Gates
Moeaki
Rackers
Nugent
Ravens
Chiefs

His Roster (4-2)
Rivers
Orton
Matthews
Mendenhall
Spiller
Snelling
Desean Jackson
Harvin
L. Moore
M. Williams South
Scheffler
O. Daniels
Folk
Kaeding
Packers
Bears

I actually prefer to keep what you have, I think Vick/Kolb will be just fine. Who's on the WW? Plus I really like Garcon going forward. Do you need to carry two d's and k's?

[Twelve Inch Ditka]

Yes I have to roster 2 K and 2 DST, Quarterbacks on waivers are

Freeman
Henne
Bradford
Stafford

I am also content staying put but just wanted to see if I could snag Orton without giving up a lot.....Is Deion Branch worth picking up over any of my WR's? Maybe Bryant?

I wouldn't do that either - Kolb/Vick is fine (IMO better than Orton going forward)

I'd pick up Stafford (which I'm in the process of doing in 2 leagues), who should be back week 8 (which takes care of your BYE week) - and is wonderful insurance if Kolb/Vick go into a QBBC...

yeah but If I pick up stafford then I have to let go of Kolb or Vick ....and we already know Reid can't make up his mind....burned me once this year because of his indecisiveness!!!

I would also keep what you have, I am not buying into Sir Orton, as you like to call him. Kolb or vick , is more than solid, and garcon is a nice wr to have this year moving forward.

Roster reqs? Or afraid to drop somebody?

I don't think you need to put in a claim on Stafford... been hurt & on bye.

I'd wait until waivers are done, and everybody becomes a FA, then wait for word on Gates - looks like all Gates owners dodged a bullet - as long as he's playing this week, drop Moeaki, pick up Stafford - QB problems solved, 3 weeks to figure out your week 10 TE or just drop Rackers...

I agree. This is sound advice.

Please take a look at my trade question.

[Twelve Inch Ditka]

Yes very good advice but I have to stick to the roster requirements.....2QB 4RB 4 WR 2 TE 2 K 2 DEF .....
