L McCoy/MJD for Nicks? How about for Austin?

Postby rquetzal » Thu Oct 28, 2010 6:14 pm

Opponent needs RB, is willing to trade Nicks or Austin for one of my top RBs. Should I? I'm considering McCoy for Nicks. It's a 1 pt PPR league, 6pt/TD, 2 RB/2 WR/1 Te/1 flex

I have:

QB: Schaub
RB: Gore, MJD, L McCoy, PT, Wells
WR: Calvin Johnson, Jennings, Seattle Mike Williams, Collie, Floyd
TE: Gates, Hernandez
K & DST

I wouldn't do it. I like your line-up. How are you set for the playoffs? MJD has a very favorable weeks 14-16 schedule.

Good luck!

I would rather keep McCoy than MJD at this point, but thats just me. Depends on how much you believe in MJD the rest of the way, McCoy is the highest scoring RB in the NFL in that format. Im not a big Nicks or Austin (post Romo injury) fan myself but of the 2 I prefer Nicks. Based on your roster I think this type of trade benefits you, I would prefer maybe Brandon Marshall or Wayne myself. If you could get Roddy White or AJ (if their owner is soft at RB) for any of your RBs straight up, I would jump on that. You are better off starting a WR in your flex with PPR and any 2 of your 3 RBs would be a solid starting 2 especially if you had Calvin, Aj/White, and Jennings at WR and Flex

I like ur team as is as well... I understand the issue with Ausint and with Romo going down, but i would wait to see how Kitna adapts. McCoy and MJD are money in PPR, so dealing one would be a big deal. Nicks is a Beast...but if you made the deal who would be your flex guy, Austin? Wells? PT if healthy? Too many questions i think...stay put, with Floyd due back week 11, and Collie due back in 4 weeks, you have a great team for the stretch. Austin will be fine as ur #2 WR until then...

I think you misunderstood my question concerning Austin. It was if I should do the RB trade for Austin instead of Nicks. But I get your point about holding out for the broken guys to return.

I tried your link, it just takes me to the main page.

I'd make the swap for Austin, NOT Nicks. Nicks still has a top tier QB throwing to him.

Look at what happened to Fitzgerald now that Warner is gone.

No thanks. Mccoy and MJD are both solid. Nicks value is sky high right now. Austin if you could give up less perhaps since his value is low.
