Default Re: *Official Fantasy Football \"What Do You Think of This Trade\" Threa

Rivers:

Pluses:

Gates
He plays Cleveland, STL, Oakland, Seattle, Arizona, Buffalo, and KC twice (not sure if this is that great), and Cincy
Efficient
Makes good decisions
PLayed well against Pittsburgh and Baltimore
Negatives

First year starting QB
No real great WR
LT takes a TON of tds
Plays Denver Twice

Grossman

Pluses

Great at home
Throws the deep ball well
plays well with lead
has decent WRs/TE
Has favorable matchups throughout the year, SF, Jets, Stl, Tampa, Detroit.
Team favors the pass to the run.
Beats up on bad teams

Minuses

Arizona game showed that he's weak on the road.
Running game isn't that great.
Short
They play NE and Giants on the road in November

I'd go with Rivers but then again he's looked really good lately. I don't think you can go wrong with any pick although Grossman plays Tampa/ Det in the 15/16 weeks and Rivers plays Kan / Sea the 15/16 week. I think Grossman has a small edge there but their matchup is horrible for both.

Another thing about Rivers is that just started to let him air it out and he's done a good job in the last 2 games doing that.
