I give Steve Smith, L. Maroney, and Garrard for Peyton Manning.

My above trade seems really clearly good for me, but a couple different people I've talked to don't think so. I think they're nuts, trying to get some feedback to see if there are reasons this is bad that make sense.

Depends who your old QB was (Garrard) and who your WRs and RBs are.

My QB's were Cutler and Garrard. My WRs were Moss, S. Smith, Welker, Branch, Roscoe Parrish, and I have Witten at TE. My RBs are Portis, Peterson (Min), Wynn, and Davenport. I had Stallworth too but he was traded separately.

I figured that Smith was likely at a high point right now given Delhomme's surgery. Maroney's play so far plus his injury plus Morris looking good made me not like his value a whole lot. Garrard and Cutler both seem like solid backups, but picking up Manning would add a lot to my offense. As is after the trade, I have a pretty sick starting lineup for a 14 team league. (P.Manning, Moss, Welker, Portis, Peterson (MIN) and Witten)

Edit: It is also worth mentioning for the observant FF player that I picked up Warner from FA for week 6 (and maybe future tradebait), as both Cutler and Manning are on bye.
