In addition to the above offer, I was just offered MJDrew for J Stewart. I think no but maybe of countering w/ one of the following:
Deal 1:
Cotchery and MJ Drew for J Stew and Winslow.
Leaving me with RBs Addai, MJDrew, KSmith, LJ and McGahee (or Sproles) at RB.
and WRs C. Johnson, B. Edwards, Cotchery, Royal, Coles
or Deal 2:
Cotchery and B. Jacobs (NYG) for J Stew & B. Edwards
Leaving me with RBs Addai, B. Jacobs, KSmith, LJ and McGahee (or Sproles) at RB.
and WRs C. Johnson, Cotchery, Winslow, Royal, Coles
I have to start 2 RBs and 3 WR/TEs
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
A few thoughts:
Jones-Drew had a bad start to the season last year as well, I had him and thought about trading him. I let him ride and he seems to become a TD machine the 2nd half of the season. He has done it for me 2 years in a row.
An Addai, Jones-Drew backfield hasn't done much yet but could be a lethal combo in a few weeks.
Jacobs seems to be a more consistent yards guy and probably the safer choice. But I don't see him as having to many huge number games.
It's the old, do you take the guy who gets you 80 yards a game or someone who can get 150 yards one game and 30 the next.

Here's my thoughts, I think you have too many RB's. If you can only start 2 per game, there is no reason to have 5 RB's. However, this gives you an great opportunity to trade for some stud WR's.
Before I go any further, what is your current starting line-up?

None of these guys are gonna lead me to a championship at this pace, much less the playoffs......so what would you guys do?
Ive got Drew Brees, R Moss, Roy Williams, DeSean Jackson, and Jason Witten. I'm thinking of throwing Randy out there to see what I can get. I know the guy who has Addai is a big Moss fan, so what do you think........is Moss for Addai a good deal? I'm thinking it is if I can get it.
I was banking a whole lot on Ricky williams and that pot head has really killed me so far........that sunnavabeetch.
(the best RB on the free agent list is Darren Sproles, and we have to carry a backup at every position with limited reserve spots, so basically if I want him, I'm gonna have to drop one of my other RBs...........if I were to get him, who should I drop? DeAngelo?)

If it were me, I'd make the deal for MJD. Rookies, especially running backs, hit a wall at midseason and MJD has some studly games at times.
I also agree with esparzar that you have too many RBs. You need to deal one straight up for a WR. Right now is a PERFECT time to go after guys like Roy Williams, Chad Johnson, TJ Houshmanzadeh, or even Randy Moss.

I say drop Morris or Norwood for Sporles. Morris is currently sharing the load w/Jordan and when Maroney gets healthy he'll be sharing the load w/2 other RB's and with the emergence of Turner in Atl I don't think Norwood is going to do much. IMO Keep DeAngelo, I think he's in a better position than Morris or Norewood.
I would mos'def throw Moss into the equation. You could probably get a stud RB like Addi,Parker,or Gore in return.
Moss for Addi is a good deal. Addi has started off slow but, you know he's too good to have a bad season. He's a better investment than Moss in the long run.

Jake Delhomme - He’s getting Steve Smith back this week and is going up against a horrible Pass Def (Minny)
J.T. O’Sullivian/Jon Kitna /Det’s WR’s- They’re playing against each other. Both teams have horrible defenses. I think it will be a very high scoring game on both ends. There should be an ample of fantasy points for C. Johnson, R. Williams, Kitna, O’Sullivian, and Gore.
Phillip Rivers – Nobody has really talked about him this year and he is quietly putting up very solid fantasy numbers. He should have a nice game against the Jets this week.
Cincinnati’s WR’s - Going out on a limb with this pick. Cinny’s going up against the G-Men in N.Y. I think that Cinny will have their @$$ES handed to them by N.Y. However, this will give the WR’s (Ocho Cinco/Whosyomama) a great opportunity to be putting up huge numbers (due to playing from behind all game)
Ryan Longwell - Minny can’t finish in the red-zone. This will give Longwell at least 3 FG’s attempts each week. Scoop him up if available. Every little point helps. Kickers can be more valuable than what most people think.

I like Morris as he seems to get the goalline carries. I'm thinking Norwood is the odd man out.
I didn't think about that but, your right. Morris does seem to get the goal line carries.
Here's my problem. I don't know if I should start Santonio Holmes, Edgerrian James, or Selvin Young for my flex position. My starters are already very solid but, I'm trying to figure out who to start at the flex.
Starters
QB- A. Rodgers
RB- A. Peterson
RB- Willie Parker
WR- Reggie Wayne
WR- A. Boldin
TE- K. Winslow
DEF- NYG
FLEX-
E. James @ Wash (projected 65 yds)
S. Holmes @ Philly (projected 78 yds)
S. Young vs. N.O. (projected 85 yds)
I'm leaning towards Holmes or Young. I think Holmes can have a break out game against the Eagles but, I also think Young should have a solid effort @ home.
thoughts.......

OK My league is 10 team, 1 pt per 25 yards run or receive, 1pt per 50 yds throwing, 6 pt TDs
Start: 1QB, 2RB, 3WR/TE, 1K, 1DEF
Trades I made yesterday:
Traded Sproles for Willis McGahee
Traded K Smith for MJ Drew
I agree I am heavy on RBs now, so I will look to package a couple for a RBs for a better 3rd RB or a better WR.
I offered B.Edwards & Royal for G.Jennings & Welker, but he hasn't bit yet and I'm going to pull it since we've got a 3day waiting period prior to games.
I like Morris as he seems to get the goalline carries. I'm thinking Norwood is the odd man out.
I would give up Moss for Addai.
I think giving up Norwood for Sproles upside is reasonable. But I'm not too high on DW right now. As a J Stew owner, I like where the RB situation in CAR seems headed.

Thanks for the input.
Alright, I wanna get this straight....Your starting line-up (as of right now) is
QB- McNabb
RB- Addi
RB- MJDrew, J Stew,LJ & McGahee (depending on match-up) ?
WR- C. Johnson
WR- B. Edwards
WR/TE- Winslow/Coles/Royal (again, depending on match-ups)
K-
Def-
do you have C. Johnson from Ciny or Det?
My thoughts after looking at your team is to trade Winslow with one of your back-up RB's (probably stewart) for a stud WR (T.O./Wayne/Fittzy/Boldin). If you have an option of playing either a WR or TE, I would go with the stud WR 90% of the time. Winslow is a great TE but if you can package together a RB (stewart) with him you should get something really good in return.
Like blake said, Rookie RB's often hit a wall about midway through thier 1st season. Sell high on Stewart while you can!
Your team could potientially look like this
QB- McNabb
RB- Addi
RB- MJD/McGahee/LJ
WR- C. Johnson
WR- Fittzy/Wayne/T.O.
WR- Edwards
you would have 3 outta the top 10 WR in the NFL
You could also make a trade that involves MJD/McGahee/L.J. or Stewart with E. Royal for a tier 2 RB like Gore/Jackson/Portis
So, If you did both of the trade somehow.
Your team could be very deadly
QB -McNabb
RB- Addi
RB- Gore/Portis/Jackson with either MJD/Mcgahee/L.J. as your 3rd option
WR- C. Johnson
WR- Fittzy/Wayne/T.O.
WR- Edwards
and all your really giving up is Winslow and solid #2 RB and a few rookie's
That's a winning team IMO

Package together Winslow with one of your RB's not named Addi for a Stud WR
Then turn around and package E. Royal with one of your other RB's not named Addi for a tier 2 RB for killer team!
Make sense?

1st, thanks for the feedback.
Yes, important point it is Calvin Johnson of DET, who looks awesome this year.
But I like your thinking. I have already been peddling Winslow and was thinking of selling high on Royal (in combination with my backup RBs) for a more solid RB2 and/or WR3.
The challenge is that I'm playing with a trade-adverse group of guys. I'm a little shocked I pulled two minor one off already. At least I have some assets to work with.

Well you definetly have the better of the C. Johnson's and try everything to get a trade. Somebody will bite on the bait, trust me, they always do. Sometime's it just take a while. Make a couple of different options avalible when trading. For example: I always offer 2 good players for 1 great player. It makes them seem like they get a better deal (who dosen't want a 2 for 1 deal?)
If you know who thier favorite team is, try and offer them a player from that team. If they like the Jags throw in MJD or if they like Den. throw in Royal. Little things like that always help.
