Do you have the RB depth to do this trade? On paper that deal favors the other owner due to the fact that DMC hasn't performed up to expected standards and is nursing a high ankle sprain, which takes weeks to heal properly.
I have McFadden in a couple of leagues and he has been a huge disappointment. I would rather have Morris at this point. Looking at both team's playoffs schedule (wk 14-16), Mcfadden would go against Broncos, Chiefs, & Panthers. Morris has Ravens, Browns, & Eagles. Ravens & Browns are the 2 worst run defenses out of those 6 defenses. Plus, you never know if McFadden's ankle injury will continue to give him problems. I would hold onto Morris.

I don't see the Redskins holding back any of their starters as the season comes to a close. Shanny wants to win and win now. He will play everyone on the starting roster from here on out unless the game is out of hand and they are ahead by a large margin. Morris will continue to be the starter.
^^^ agreed. keep morris. McFadden has been disappointing and compounding that with injury now is not a good look.
Team: QB: Bradford/Roethlisburger RB: Rice, Ridley, Fred Jackson WR: Welker, M Crabtree, Dez Bryant, Cecil Shorts, Andre Roberts TE: Vernon Davis, Scott Chandler K: M Prater DEF: Houston/Denver
one more vote for not doing it. i was a mcfadden owner. (notice the past tense) i traded him and josh freeman for mccoy and houston defense last week. while i do like his playoff matchups, i have no faith he will be the oakland rb enjoying those matchups.
