* **Should I trade RAY RICE? WHIR!!** *

[TheGhost]

OK, I play in a 12 team league that is scored very TD heavy. I'm in 1st place in my division and I'm in the drivers seat to get to the playoffs.

All TD's are 6 points and we are awarded a couple other points for length of TD and for reaching yardage benchmarks (2 points for 100+ rushing, and 2 points for 300+ passing). But mostly it's a TD league. I lost Tony Romo and have been having to start Ryan Fitzpatrick and Shaun Hill.

So should I do this trade?

My: Ravens Def. and Ray Rice
for
His: Matt Ryan

I'd hate to give up Rice but I've had McGahee on the bench all year and McGahee has scored more points (40 to 24) then Rice. I'd just hate to have Rice break out in the second half. Especially next week against Carolina.

My Roster:
QB: Ryan Fitzpatrick, Shaun Hill
RB: Ray Rice, Darren McFadden, Willis McGahee, LaGarrette Blount, Shonn Greene
WR: DeSean Jackson, Dez Bryant, Sidney Rice, Steve Smith (Car.)
TE: Antonio Gates, Jacob Tamme
K: Rob Bironas
DEF: Ravens, Raiders, Falcons (<---plays Carolina and Seattle in playoffs)

Should I make this trade? WHIR!! Thanks!!!

YES!!! I love Ray RIce, but you desperatley need help @ the QB position, and if you watched Ryan last night, it was a thing of beauty vs a great D in Baltimore. Being a TD league, I don't think Ray Rice does much for you, besides the Yardage....

Is there a better QB you could get for Rice? Ryan's playoff schedule is a bit iffy (depending on when your playoffs start) because he plays three straight road games-and the Falcons are run heavy on the road. Just a thought...

Hmmmm... I didn't consider that and I think Ryan is about as good as it gets in terms of a trade for me. I definitely wouldn't want to have to bench Matt Ryan down the stretch. My playoffs are two weeks long and start on week 15.

Matt Ryan will play:
@ Seattle
New Orleans at home


Ryan Fitzpatrick will play:
@ Miami
New England at home
