Big Trade... Should I Take It or Not?

Postby handslikesecrets » Mon Sep 17, 2012 10:07 pm

I'm in a 12-team, non-ppr league.

My team consists of:

QB- Tom Brady
RB- Jamaal Charles
RB- Benjarvus Green-Ellis
WR- Larry Fitzgerald
WR- Darrius Heyward-Bey
TE- Aaron Hernandez
FLEX- Kenny Britt
D/ST-(Changes weekly)
K- Nate Kaeding

B- Robert Griffin III
B- Jonathan Stewart
B- Toby Gerhart
B- Beanie Wells
B- David Wilson
B- Denarius Moore
B- Braylon Edwards

Obviously, I have no TE now that Hernandez is out and I'm hurting at RB.

The trade is this...

I give --> Robert Griffin III, Jamaal Charles.

I get --> Chris Johnson (RB), Michael Bush (RB), Dennis Pitta (TE).

Do I make the trade?

no I wouldn't,the deal breaker for me would be getting cj2lame .I think you'd be better off just dropping braylon and getting a te off ww

Man, no way. RG 3 is worth too much at this point, and should be a good bargaining chip for you. Seems like you need to upgrade your WR most to me. Any teams that are WR/TE heavy that need a better QB? Cutler's team?

I wouldn't do that trade. :-t

You can get the same production off the waiver wire as Pitta will provide in your TE slot. And you can get better value for both Charles and RGIII than what this trade has to offer. I agree with dropping Edwards and grabbing a waiver TE for now until you can work up a trade to add a decent TE to your roster until Hernandez is able to contribute again in your lineup.
