Will Chad Johnson turn it around?

[killersquids 3]

I'm thinking of trading for chad johnson. Would you trade Mike Furrey and Desmond Clark for Chad Johnson?

 

My other TE is Ben Watson, so basically I'm giving up a top 10 TE to upgrade (if you want to call it that!) from Furrey to Johnson.

 

It's a PPR league, standard scoring. Furrey is outscoring Chad Johnson so far and yesterday will only further separate the two. Thoughts and opinions please and I will respond in kind.

 

thanks.

Trading for him?....umm no....I would try and trade for a more consistant WR, like wayne or harrison....Johnsons #'s aren't going to get much better because C. Henry is the real deal...

CJ has definitely not been consistent and falls under WR core of some pretty good guys. Even so, I still doubt you'd be able to get him for what you are offering up. Either way, I wouldn't do it. He really wouldn't be helping you enough to be worthy of a trade deal where you give up a solid TE. If you are going to go for a WR go for one who more consistent and is guaranteed to get enough catches a game to warrant a trade.

I would stay away from Johnson this year. Their schedule isn't the best either

I've got two solid TEs in clark and watson. I want to trade one of them. Mike Furrey has been pretty consistent and has outscored chad so far this year. Do you think furrey will continue to outscore chad? I'm thinking that chad can't do much worse and his upside is worth making this trade. The guy probably would do this trade b/c he needs a te bad.

Well if he needs a TE "very" bad then offer him one of your TE's and another WR...(other than mike)...because he will continue to have decent #'s in detroit...

 

Start low...and see what happens..

Please stay away from Chad Johnson at all costs.

 

Why? Two big reasons:

 

His inability to run crisp routes and get open while being double teamed.

 

His quarterback's inability to stay in the pocket for more then 5 seconds.

 

 

Chad Johnson will score big when Carson has time to get it to him. This won't happen with the brutality that is their week 14, 15, and 16 schedule. These weeks are fantasy playoffs.

Tough call!!! CJ has not lived up to potential this year obviously. I had him last year and rode him amongst others to the FF Bowl finals. Seeing as the bye weeks are history, you really have no use for 2 decent TE's. I'm not sold on D Clark. Bears schedule is tough coming up and I am not sure he has much more upside. Plus Grossman has shown to be human. Mike Furrey?? Who the hell knows how he will perform? In short, I would pull the trigger. As you said, CJ cannot possibly perform less than this UNLESS he gets injured!
