I have been searching for a another RB for awhile now. I targeted Fred Jackson and offered DeSean Jackson for him which he declined. I thought it was fair or did I undervalue? He counters with Vincent Jackson and LeSean McCoy for Andre Johnson and Fred Jackson. I wasn't in love with it and countered back with Vincent Jackson for Fred Jackson which he hasn't acted on yet.
Did I make a mistake passing on the big deal? Do I need such a big deal should I keep looking for that 1 v 1 deal. I have been working my QB angel trying to trade Big Ben or Brees with zero luck and lots of low ball offers. This is my team 12 team dynasty league 2-3 so far with some bad luck as my team has a lot of pts scored against it each week.

Fred is a beast. I doubt that he will accept that trade either. You're gonna have to do a two for one. Try selling high on Lynch. He sucks and this past week he only got 12 carries and 8 the previous week. I'd try to sell one of your two starting WR's and Lynch for Fred and see what happens.
I wouldn't have done the big trade cuz I like McCoy better than Fred Jackson for the duration of the year and VJax and Johnson is a wash w/johnson's injury.
It may be crazy but if he needs QB help I'd offer Brees and Steve Smith for Fred Jackson. Big Ben could fill in capably for you. I don't think you have enough depth at the other positions to truly improve your team.
Fred's value is very high right now. I understand why he rejected both of your DJax and VJax trades. DJax and VJax are about the 10th best WR's. FJax is a top 5 RB right now. And elite RB's are more valuable than elite WR's. I have FJax, and the only WR I would give Fred Jackson up for is probably Megatron.
Your going to have to do a 2 for 1 to get him, or do two really good players for Fred Jackson and a lesser player.
Updated trade talks... As expected by some he rejected Vincent Jackson for Fred Jackson. He gave me a counter of this 3 for 3 trade.
His Fred Jackson Steven Jackson Pierre Garcon
My LeSean McCoy Marshawn Lynch Vincent Jackson
I'm really torn on this. First thing that comes to mind is that I don't really want Pierre Garcon. He has Julio Jones who I would much rather have. But is that being to greedy at this point? The homer in me is really torn on giving up LeSean McCoy. Steven Jackson scares me a bit with being able to stay on the field and produce. This is the second time I have had the chance to trade for Steven Jackson this season. First chance I could have got Julio and Steven Jackson from another owner for Big Ben and Moreno. Do I fumble away the chance again? Should I counter with Lynch and Jackson for Fred Jackson and Julio? or Just 2 for 1?

FJax is the key to Buffalo's offense. They get everything going with his running abilites which opens up the receiving game. FJax is gonna get 20+ carries each week and is a GREAT PPR running back. I wouldnt take much less the Megatron for my FJax at this point. So your gonna have to give up alot to get him...
However, I strongly disagree with trading Brees and Smith for FJax... that is ludacris! That is two elite players for 1... do the math...
Yeah I have been trying to target teams who are at the bottom of the league possibly looking to change things up. CJ is on last years champs roster and he is stacked and playing decent even without CJ. His trend for stars though not giving them up but i'll ask.
Just for the record guys it's Steve Smith of the Eagles not Panthers. I think some might be confused.
