Trade advice... MJD for Welker

Postby 050521640 » Mon Aug 13, 2012 4:54 pm

Hey looking for some advice on this trade offer. League is non-ppr, start 3 WR and 2 RB no flex.

I give: Welker and Ridley
I get: Jones-Drew and Denarius Moore

Team:
QB- Stafford
WR- Megatron, Welker, Harvin, Meachem and Torrey Smith
RB- Murray, Sproles, Redman, Ridley, Tate and Royster
TE- Davis

I'm thinking its worth the gamble that MJD will settle the contract dispute and will be able to produce as a RB1 and have enough depth and WR to take this risk. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I like the trade for you. Welker is not a solid WR in non-PPR, and MJD is a nice option at running over Sproles.

-Welker had 1500/9 last year. that is still elite even in non ppr....the addition of Lloyd and presence of those TE's will naturally have an effect , but at least for this year, Welker is a top 8 option in most leagues.
-that aside, the value is fair enough. I happen to like Ridley and MJD scares the pants off me.....i tend to think he holds out.

However IF you feel strongly MJD comes back, the trade works....you're WR depth is good enough to make that move.

I don't think I would be comfortable moving a player of Welker's pedigree for a gut sitting on his couch. Until he signs, I am hands off of MJD
