[A S U]

12 team league. 10yds/pt. Start QB, 2RB, 2WR, TE, K, D.

My team:

Kitna
Henry, Mcgahee, T. Jones, C. Brown, Lendale, S. Young
R. Williams, Fitz, Braylon, R. Brown
Watson

His team:

Cutler, McNair
LT, T. Bell, Norwood, M. Turner, A-Train
Holt, CJ, Bennett, Ginn
Shockey

TRADE:

I give Henry + (Mcgahee/T. Jones) + C. Brown
I get L.T. + Turner

This kills my depth, but it's quite an upgrade. This is as low as LT is gonna get. Good or bad trade for me? His WR depth is atrocious, but I don't really have much myself. It should also be noted that before week one I traded him turner + norwood for T. Jones.

Trade I was offered:

I get:
Marion Barber III
Antwaan Randle El

I give:

T.J. Houshmanzadeh

Insta-accept, right? Except I already have Gore, Cadillac, Reggie Bush, Brandon Jacobs and Brandon Jackson on my team. And there are no flex positions available.

My WRs are T.O., T.J., Reggie Brown and Mark Clayton

how many RBs do you start, how many roster spots do you have.

At the same time, I could sell Cadillac high for a big WR also. I don't think he'll keep up this productivity for the rest of the season.

This guy has made like 4 prior proposals for T.J. in the past, all of which were laughable. This is a great deal on paper.

[Victor]

just curious what you guys do when someone continues to offer you idiotic trades.

first this guy offered

dward and jnorwood for barber

then he tried dward, norwood and bruce for barber and lynch

and finally housh and rudi for gore, barber and coles.

Let him keep offering and let him know that you're gonna have to give more.

Remember that if owners are capable of giving trades where they don't give enough, they are also capable of offering trades where they give way too much. Wait for him to slip and strike.

I think that's what happening with my trade above.

What about LT..is this just a early season fluke or is he going to be a solid but not great RB this year?

[/ QUOTE ]

last year LT had something like 3 tds in his first 4 games and then 28 in the last 12 or something like that.

Was it bad to reject giving up Evans to get Cotchery (I already have Coles)?

This leaves you an ugly starting lineup. The upgrade of Barber over current #2 is not enough to offset the downgrade of Brown/Randel El over Housh/Brown
