McCoy for Mendenhall and Big Ben

[Geobadger]

So I lost Romo for 6-8 weeks. I have Sanchez as a backup and picked up Chad Henne and Ryan Fitzpatrick this week. I was planning to platoon those backup QBs when I was offered this trade:

LeSean McCoy for Mendenhall and Ben Roethlisburger.

What do you think? Any advice is welcome. It's a pretty standard scoring format plus .5 PPR.

I would do it, McCoy is a higher risk/ higher reward RB, but Mendenhall is a great consistent RB in a good offense, plus Big Ben is a top 10 QB. I like the trade.

Help on either one of mine?

Yeah, I like it for you too. Aside from the PPR loss, I don't see mendenhall as that big of a downgrade to McCoy. only having 0.5 PPR helps that loos as well. Getting Ben in this deal after losing a Romo-type player makes it nearly a no-brainer. Take a look at mine?

Thanks. Anyone disagree?

[PensSteelersBucs]

Accept quickly.

I may do the deal without Ben.

Yeah that's a pretty solid trade. You aren't downgrading, plus you skip Mendelhall's bye week.
