I was just offered Larry Johnson for Tiki Barber.........

Recommended Posts

I was offered Larry Johnson for Tiki Barber. A couple weeks ago I would have jumped at this but now I'm not sure. With Green out, defenses are stacking the box on KC. He's a stud though, right? I just don't want to give up Tiki for hype. I always know I'm gonna get atleast the yardage with Tiki. He gets those "all purpose" yards.

 

Please help!!!!!

I'd do it in an instant. Sure, Tiki has (was?) piling up massive yardage, and will always get you some catches and plenty of yards. However, LJ will get the goal line carries, something Tiki WILL NOT get. It isn't like he might get them, he flat out wont.

 

Don't worry about the Chiefs. They are a very good 0-2 and put on an incredible defensive display against the Broncos today. That game was a battle, and LJ still pulled out 120 yards on the ground.

 

Take it, and run.

Hell yes I'd do that. Tiki is going to wear down and Jacobs will continue to get carries. Green will be back soon and LJ is still putting up solid yardage without him!

Although Tiki doesn't get TDs at the goal line, he does get breakaway long TDs both rushing and receiving. He also just gets more receptions, period. He has monster days and plays on a much better team and has a better line. Thus teams can't key on the run and he has running lanes. And though Jacobs steals TDs he keeps Tiki fresh and actually makes him less injury prone. LJs OL is suspect and there's no passing game to take the pressure off of him. Also, he's a bit of an upright runner and is vulnerable to injury because of that, like Stephen Jackson.

Make the trade. Look at what LJ did in 2nd half of season last year. KC will get better offensively and LJ will get those goal line touches He's a fresh horse ride'em

Herm wants to run LJ like never seen before... and when Green gets back the Chiefs are 100% better!

I'd take the deal. Larry Johnson might be better long term since Green will come back and the passing game will get going. Even until then, they'll still pound the ball with LJ. But Barber is a yardage monster but he doesn't score as many TDs a LJ so I would take the deal at this point.

i'd do this trade mainly because right now you'd be buying him low but later in the season his price will rise. i didnt buy into all his hype but i think this is a trade you cant ignore
