So I'm loving riding the McFadden train right now. I'm still concerned that he'll end up missing time at some point. I would like to make an offer for M. Bush to handcuff him. What is a fair trade offer [PPR league]? I have: E. Graham, R. Helu, M. Ingram, T. Jones.
I'm thinking of offering Graham. He is averaging just a couple more points per game than Bush and I'd really like to see if my other RB's will start to produce. I don't suspect that Graham does any better than the 10 pts. he's averaging now. On the other hand, I'd be trading him to the team that lost J. Charles. Trade Jones in an even handcuff trade? Thoughts?
All you can do is try. With McFaddens past I would try to get that done if I had him too. Just for the peace of mind lol. The problem with giving graham is that Bush is almost scoring as much as Graham is now and thats not even where Bushs value lies. His value is if DMC gets hurt. If I had Bush and someone wanted him, especially the McFadden owner I would try to make them pay. I would want Graham and Helu.
And you cant just trade T Jones in an even handcuff trade cause its not even lol.

So I picked up Ryan Torain off waivers. I have no interest in keeping him, but I think I may be able to get some decent trade bait for him. Worth giving up Torain to get M. Bush?
I may be able to pickup V. Cruz from another team for him. Now that A. Johnson is hurt, I may need another WR. Would you offer Torain for Bush or Cruz?
I really think that a lot of these guys are even, depending on the way you look at things. I also think that the one poster is correct in saying that the other owner knows how much you value DMC's handcuff and will "make you pay." I'd try any combination to get the insurance on DMC. Maybe throw Helu in there because Washington is going through 3 guys right now, and you never know what Shanny' s thinking. Helu is the future, but that doesn't mean that the future is sometime this year.
Honestly, i would tell him that you want bush and throw those names out there to him and see who he wants. I would think that any of those players for bush would be a decent idea......because i can see mcfadden getting hurt also
