Wildman 0 Posted July 9, 2006 At first I was going to tell you to accept it, but I'm not so sure...if it 's a point per reception league, I'd probably do it because Boldin's value is comparable to an RB in those leagues and Westbrook is a better player than Johnson in those leagues, if healthy. In a non-ppr league? Not sure. I think you lose good depth at RB that you won't likely get back with Holmes. Sure if LJ goes down and Holmes actually plays, you have a steal. But you know what you got with Johnson. Plus I have no idea why people believe Culpepper is going to be ready in September--I know he looks great--but call me Doubting Thomas. Until the Jesus of Miami shows his face in the huddle on opening day and looks great, I'm not believing... So who is going to be better McNair or Green? I think McNair has more upside. His WR weapons are better. Statistically speaking Kennison was better last year, but McNair to Mason is one of the better combos in football. I think Mason will return to a higher level of productivity. I like Sammie Parker, but I think Mark Clayton is going to be a better receiver as soon as this year which will take a lot more pressure off Heap and Mason. But the Chiefs will see some stacked lines, which should give Green more room to go deep and as much as Edwards is a defensive guy, that KC defense doesn't look like it's going to be a world-beater overnight. If they do become a great unit, then that might cut down on Green's yardage totals a bit. If not, Green should be playing from behind or just trying to keep one step ahead as usual. So I guess what I'm concluding is Green is probably the safer play that should put up numbers comparable to McNair, unless Baltimore just explodes with a vengeance (possible with a motivated McNair, but doubtful). It then comes down to this--is having Green and Boldin worth more than having Rudi Johnson? Personally, I'd be happy with Horn and Chambers as my starters. Glenn as a fantasy back up is a luxury. If it's a traditional system, I think the difference between a starting quality fantasy RB and a non-startng quality fantasy RB has a worse impact than if you didn't take Boldin So if you are in a traditional scoring league, I'd probably keep what you have. If you are in a more WR-weighted set up, do the trade. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cuse9 128 Posted July 10, 2006 Should I trade- Steve McNair & Rudi Johnson for Trent Green, A. Boldin, & Priest Holmes?? Here is my roster, I have made a few trades already STARTERS QB Daunte Culpepper RB Edgerrin James RB Rudi Johnson WR Chris Chambers WR Joe Horn TE Jeremy Shockey K David Akers D Falcons BACK UPS QB Steve McNair RB Brian Westbrook RB Dominic Rhodes WR Terry Glenn WR Isaac Bruce TE Dallas Clark I would take Green and Boldin for McNair and Rudi. I say Green is more durable than McNair....if McNair didn't break down every year the Titans would prolly still have him. Rudi is very good...only thing I don't like it Perry is going to keep cutting into Rudi's playing time. Boldin is phenomenal! In two less games last year and one where he only ran one play...so basically three less games than Fitzgerald he put up identical numbers. You can't let a wr like that go! Priest is the "why not" player of the deal. IF he happens to be healthy and they trade him to a team that will use him right away you could get a massive steal! Priest has said all along he is faaar from done. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
