Trade Megatron for Rivers/Moss? WHIR as always

Postby Fuqyu » Tue Nov 09, 2010 1:54 pm

So, I'm in a league where one guy has Vick and Rivers and is trying to deal Rivers for a stud WR. He also doesn't like Moss, so I'm hoping I can get Moss and Rivers out of him for Calvin Johnson. Here are our rosters:

Mine (subject to change slightly after waivers)

QB
Ryan Fitzpatrick (Buf - QB)

WR
Calvin Johnson (Det - WR)
Steve Smith (NYG - WR)
Dwayne Bowe (KC - WR)
RB
Adrian Peterson (Min - RB)
DeAngelo Williams (Car - RB)
TE
Vernon Davis (SF - TE)
K
Sebastian Janikowski (Oak - K)
DEF
Kansas City (KC - DEF)
Bench
Mike Williams (TB - WR)
Felix Jones (Dal - RB)
Steve Smith (Car - WR)
Vincent Jackson (SD - WR)
Jeremy Shockey (NO - TE)
Jonathan Stewart (Car - RB)

His:
QB
Michael Vick (Phi - QB)
WR
DeSean Jackson (Phi - WR)
Lee Evans (Buf - WR)
Randy Moss (Ten - WR)
RB
LaDainian Tomlinson (NYJ - RB)
Joseph Addai (Ind - RB)
TE
Jacob Tamme (Ind - TE)
K
Ryan Succop (KC - K)
D
Minnesota (Min - DEF)
BN
Visanthe Shiancoe (Min - TE)
Brian Hartline (Mia - WR)
Marion Barber (Dal - RB)
Nate Kaeding (SD - K)
Philip Rivers (SD - QB)
Austin Collie (Ind - WR)

Do you guys think this is a good trade, or unfair either way?

you're getting good value for megatron, but your greater issue is at RB. you cant make a trade happen there?

It's a good deal, but I'm not sure it makes sense for you. Fitzpatrick has been playing well, so you may not need the upgrade there. Maybe try and deal for a better RB2.

Please see mine:

Thanks, my RB2 position is hurting. I'm trying to pick up Portis and Jacobs this week to help shore it up, but neither of them are the real answer. I can probably trade for Rivers this week and trade him for Frank Gore or Steven Jackson next week, but then I have a week w/o CJ and w/o my desired RB. Considering I am 3-6 and more or less have to win out, this doesn't seem like a good plan. Any thoughts on that?

I think it's a great trade for you, especially if you can flip him for Gore before this week's matchups. I'd target him over SJax.

that's my problem, I won't be able to make the other trade until after this Sunday. There's like a 3 day waiting period on all trades.

I would do the trade, you gain a ton of value. Even if you have to wait and trade for an upgrade at RB it is worth it. At 3 and 6 you cant be that far out of the last playoff seed. You have time, and you could land a very nice RB for Rivers.

Help?
