I am trying to make a trade to upgrade my receiver core. Our league is 1PPR and we start QB-RB-RB-WR-WR-TE-DEF-K-FLEX(QB/RB/WR/TE/DEF/K) We play two games a week and depending on Romo and Witten tonight I will be 6-0 at best and 4-2 at worst. The team I want to trade with will be 0-6 after this week. I want to use my depth at RB and TE to sell high on Finley and possibly Tate as well. Here is the trade I have in mind: I give: Jermichael Finley TE Ben Tate RB Malcolm Floyd WR I get Vincent Jackson WR Sam Bradford QB Mario Manningham WR Who gets the better end of this trade? Do you think he would go for it, if not what should I offer? Does this trade leave me to weak at running back? Thanks in advance. My roster: starters Schaub, Matt QB HOU Johnson, Steve WR BUF Peterson, Adrian RB MIN Romo, Tony QB DAL Tate, Ben RB HOU Witten, Jason TE DAL Gibson, Brandon WR STL Eagles DST Rackers, Neil K HOU Bench Finley, Jermichael TE GB Tomlinson, LaDainian RB NYJ Keller, Dustin TE NYJ Addai, Joseph RB IND Floyd, Malcom WR SD Jones, Felix RB DAL Vikings DST His roster: Starters Jackson, Vincent WR SD Jennings, Greg WR GB Orton, Kyle QB DEN Nelson, David WR BUF Blount, LeGarrette RB TB Johnson, Chris RB TEN King, Jeff TE ARI Falcons DST Brown, Josh K STL Bench Bradford, Sam QB STL Stewart, Jonathan RB CAR Graham, Earnest RB TB Hernandez, Aaron TE NE Bush, Michael RB OAK Manningham, Mario WR NYG Lewis, Marcedes TE JAC
Personally, Tate is a hard guy to trade unless they have Foster. Also, if you can play two QB's this guy would be stupid to trade one of his. I don't think Hernadez is out that long, so his need at TE is temporary. I think you may be able to find a better target in another team becasue I think Finley and Floyd have good value. Is there a guy with 3 QB's who needs a TE?
You need to move Finley. Too much value sitting on the bench, but I don't think he'll take the trade. He is loaded at RB and WR. QB and TE are his weak spots. I say just look to move Finley to him. Tate is too valuable and a guy I feel you need.
Thanks for the feedback. I am going to express interest in Jackson and see if he has any interest in Tate or Finley as part of a package. His WRs are awesome. He only needs one good QB and a bye week QB because he should continue to use a WR in the flex spot instead of a QB. Also, I am trying to buy low on Bradford because he has had a tough schedule and hasn't looked good so far. He is loaded at WR, he badly needs a RB. Chris Johnson is still valuable but has been getting him very few points so far. Blount, Stewart, and Graham have also been weak so far. Also, Graham and Blount are on the same team. Hernandez started out as a good performer but is injured. Finley would be a huge upgrade over King. He is 0-6 and needs points now. By the time Hernandez is 100% he could be 0-12.
Update The following offer has been rejected: I give: Jermichael Finley TE Ben Tate RB Malcolm Floyd WR I get Vincent Jackson WR Sam Bradford QB Mario Manningham WR ============================================= He says he wants a starting QB for Vincent Jackson or Greg Jennings. Would I be nuts if I gave up Romo OR Schaub for Vincent Jackson AND Sam Bradford (OR Orton)? If not, what should I offer? Thanks in advance.
I'd shoot for Jennings instead of Jackson. V-Jax schedule is gona be brutal if you take a look at the CB's he'll be facing. Offer up Schaub for Jennings and Bradford. Should be a good deal for you
Update: Your trade offer of Kendall Hunter,Matt Schaub for Sam Bradford,Greg Jennings has been rejected.
