I have been offered Bobby Wagner for Matt Forte in my dynasty league. Should i make the trade? What do you think? Any input would be helpful.

Unless you have some weird defensive scoring rules, this is an easy no. Never trade away a productive RB for a defensive player.

I prefer Forte and it is not close. He will still put up solid RB2 numbers.

The offer he's giving me now is Bobby wagner, Lamar Miller and Ryan Broyles for Matt Forte and Kyle Rudolph. I know Broyles had major surgery, but i think he will be alright and has some decent upside. Please let me know what you think.

It's a little closer, but still no. You have a lot more faith in Broyles than me. I look at him as more of a lottery ticket coming off his 2nd major knee injury in 2 years.

I truly think that Miller will out perform Forte this year.

A healthy Forte is a top 15 back, I just googled Lamar Miller because I had no idea who he was :-D

Plus Broyles has injury history, wouldn't want to roll the dice with him either. Its still a no for me as well :-t

Miller is an unknown right now too. He could have a great year but that was what everybody expected out of Roy Helu last year and then Morris came out of nowhere and stole the show. There are a couple RB's every year that projected to be big but it just doesn't pan out or some undrafted player comes in and outperforms them. With Forte you know what you will get. If you really think Miller is going to be a stud and are willing to roll the dice on that hope, go for it but I think you could still get a better deal here than what you've been offered. I'd turn this down.

Like I was saying above, the latest gossip in Miami is that they are really interested in Mendenhall which could hurt Miller anywhere from not at all to severely!
