Re: Evaluate this trade

Team B all the way. Chris Johnson is great and all but if you look at it like this ..

Johnson for Bradshaw & Marshall

Lynch, Massaquoi, Kendricks, 4th rnd for Beanie & Gresham

The first trade is fair, I'd take Beanie & Gresham in the 2nd trade every time.

Re: Evaluate this trade

Team B is getting a lopsided deal. I see it the same as Buckeye33. Essentially Johnson and junk for a 4 really useful guys.

Re: Evaluate this trade

Also, in this league we start 3 RB and 4 WR, if that makes a difference.

Still lopsided to team B.

Re: Evaluate this trade

With Gore out I need a RB.

I was offered.
FJax and J. Best for
McFadden and B. Marshall.

That's an easy "no", right?

Re: Evaluate this trade

Trade advice as well. Keeper league. You start QB, RB, WR, WR, 2 Flex, TE, D. You can have a kicker start as a flex position.

Here is a breakdown of my team
QB: Matt Ryan, Cutler
RB: MJD, Steven Jackson, Daniel Thomas, Roy Helu
WR: Miles Austin, AJ Green, Plax,
TE: Gronk
D: Pack and Lions

The rest of my team is basically fodder. Ernest Graham, Kendell Hunter, A. Benn, etc.

Anyway someone in the league is offering Rivers for RB. I mentioned trading MJD for him and he responded with MJD and Matt Ryan. Now its a 4 keeper league and my keepers right now look like MJD, Steven Jackson, AJ Green, and Miles Austin. Is MJD and Ryan too steep a price to pay for Rivers? Without MJD my starting RB's would be Steven Jackson and Daniel Thomas.

What are your keeper rules? How long could you hold Rivers and/or Ryan? MJD is not a long term guy in my book.

No, and you get to make fun of the guy in the response line.

For as long as possible. I think I am going to turn it down. The trade we discussed was Ryan and MJD for Rivers and Reggie Bush. My problem was that there wasn't too much of a difference between Ryan and Rivers to make me willing to part with MJD.

I would keep Ryan and MJD.
Ryan and Cutler should get you a pretty good amount of points even if they don't get what the top QBs get.
MJD is a guy that you can usually count on getting his carries and will usually stay in the game even when his team his down due to his pass catching ability.

Yeah no on that one too. Reggie Bush is fantasy poison.

Ryan actually was one of my biggest mistakes. You were allowed to keep 4 players and I kept Ryan, MJD, Steven Jackson, and Miles Austin while letting Vincent Jackson go. Ryan was one of the "weaker" keepers but I was high on him.
