Trading Vick?

Postby ImFromLA24 » Wed Sep 21, 2011 12:03 am

Okay so I'm in two leagues this year and this is my 2nd.

Same as the other, 10 team PPR league.

Starters
QB-Michael Vick (Philadelphia)
RB-LeBarrette Blount (Tampa Bay)
RB-Tim Hightower (Washington)
RB/WR-Jahvid Best (Detroit)
WR-Greg Jennings (Green Bay
WR-Steve Johnson (Buffalo)
TE-Jimmy Graham (New Orleans)
D/ST-Detroit Lions
K-Ryan Longwell (Minnesota)

Bench
QB-Cam Newton (Carolina)
QB-Matthew Stafford (Detroit)
RB-Ahmad Bradhsaw (New York)
RB-Jonathan Stewart (Carolina)
RB-Danny Woodhead (New England)
WR-Nate Burleson (Detroit)
WR-Greg Little (Cleveland)
WR-Jacoby Ford (Oakland)
WR-Earl Bennett (Chicag)


I'm trying to trade Mike Vick for some RBs & WRs.

Depending on the interest I get for Vick I might just trade him straight up for a WR like Fitzgerlad, Marshall, Viincent Jackosn.

Cam Newton is a stud fantasy QB and I feel pretty confident with him as my QB1 for the rest of the season. And if he struggles I still have Stafford, who's been incredible.

Would it be a good idea for me to trade Vick?

Thanks in advance

You need RB more than WR, given your QB depth i would try to trade Vick straight up for a stud RB.

I would not go straight up and even consider trading stafford or newton in a package. Why, becuase then you will be benching the likes of bradsahw, best, or hightower. You have good depth you just need one more stud rb. Maybe do blount and stafford or newton for a good back. This way you have 2 great qb still an upgrade at back and your not sitting a good back. In ppr bradshaw best are almost must starts. Blount and hightower will catch less passes so one of those are good trade bait.
10 team ppr w big play bonuses

QB E. Manning
RB C Johnson, Forte, Sproles
WR Marshall, A.Brown, Decker
TE Finley

Vicks value is down right now, whereas Cam and Stafford are way up. Vicks upside is the best of all, but you need a backup QB just incase. I say try to deal off Stafford for a RB, maybe even a Stafford/Blount combo or Stafford/Hightower.

Would trading Blount & Vick for Forte & Brandon Lloyd be a good trade considering the team I have?

EDIT: I offered

Michael Vick
Steve Johnson
LeGarrette Blount, Tim Hightower, or Ahmad Bradshaw

for

Matt Forte
Hakeem Nicks

I agree with most. I would trade Vick right away. He is an injury waiting to happen. Im sure there is someone willing to trade you a stand out RB for him.

Please help

Everybody who's interested in Vick don't have any good RBs at all.

One guy has Roddy White, Andre Johnson, & Vincent Jackson, and his #1 RB is Shonn Greene & Cedric Benson.

His starting QB is Freeman, and he said he might be willing to trade one of his 3 starting WRs straight up for Vick.

Another guy who's interested his RBs are Foster & Steven Jackson and he has Brandon Marshall, Wes Welker, & Larry Fitzgerlad. But even when I just offered Vick straight up for one of his WR he thought that was too pricey.

Nobody else even needs a QB. I'd probably be able to get a lot more if Vick was playing better. I think I might just have to take one of those WRs straight up for him.
