Guest Mikeock Posted September 5, 2007 Our league scores 1 point every 10 yards receiving and rushing 1 Point Every 50 yards passing 6 points ALL Tds including passing 1 point every 3 receptions **We do NOT have a waiver wire in this league** My team PRIOR to trade: QB: Brady,Rivers,Frye,Quinn,Volek RB: Julius Jones,Caddy,Betts,Morency,Shipp,Sammy Morris,A Peterson(Chic) WR: Wayne,Colston,Porter,Price,LloydJames Jones TE: Shockey,Lee His team QB: Grossman,Griese,Trent Green RB: LT2,Edge,Lynch,Chester Taylor,A-Train,Mike Anderson WR: Steve Smith,Calvin Johnson,Driver,Jenkins,Sammy Parker,Mike Fuerry TE: Witten,Sheffler I got : Grossman,Griese,Lynch,A-Train,Steve Smith,Mike Fuerry I gave up: Tom Brady,Marquez Colston. I thought I did good but 1 owner says I got raped?! I look at Colston and Smith a push, SO I traded Brady for the Bears Qbs,Buff Rbs and Fuerry. Im going to start Rivers who Im very confident in ( I know hes no Brady ) and I picked up some MUCH needed RB help ,although they are not the best... Did I get rooked or did I do all right. I drafted from the 12TH spot.. *** Leave a Link and I will answer ** Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Texansfan 0 Posted September 5, 2007 At first glance the trade looks awful for you, BUT... Steve Smith > Colston so I think you won that. You have Rivers as your starting QB so giving up Brady doesn't kill you, but it wasn't necessarily smart. You did add some depth at RB with Lynch & Atrain which might come in useful later. Not the best trade, but not as bad as those guys make it out to be. Good luck. Thanks for looking at mine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adam smitty 0 Posted September 5, 2007 You picked up some solid RB depth and added Steve Smith who is higher on most lists than Colston so I wouldnt say you got hosed here, but I would have probably held on to Brady just because he should throw 35 TDs this year. That said, Rivers is one of my favorite middle tiered QBs this year so you didnt lose out on much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enjoi525 0 Posted September 5, 2007 You got better a WR and RB. You need good RBs badly, but I don't think I like giving that up Lynch. You certainly didn't get raped because you do have a good QB in Rivers.

That said, Rivers is one of my favorite middle tiered QBs this year so you didnt lose out on much. /agreed Smith is much more solid than Colston. You got an upgrade at WR, and I think his took a hit. QB? Well, you picked up some bench players. Rivers is your starter now. Brady has more weapons to throw at, but Rivers is also playing in a high power offense. Many thanks bro!

epinindy 0 Posted September 5, 2007 You didn't get raped. I agree with the other posts, Smith > Colston you definitely won that. With Rivers in your pocket I think this trade works. Lynch is going to be a solid back this season and can help you out. Typically my philosphy on trades is you always have to be getting the best player in a trade. Although you gave up 2 good players, I think you did that in getting Smith. Especially with Rivers to fall back on. Not a bad deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PiRadii 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Pretty much Smith and Lynch for Brady and Colston. If Lynch pans out then you did ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sb305198 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Here's the way i look at this deal. It's entirely possible that Colston and Brady both have huge seasons and you look like a boob. I think that you are so desperate for some help at RB that Lynch might help shore up. I'm looking at your roster and trying to figure out if you picked Brady with your 1st pick or what, because your real problem isn't this trade, it's the fact that your draft was a total nightmare, and it looks like you didn't go in with a plan and now you have to make trades like this in the hopes that you can compete. Next time, plan better for your draft and you won't be in situations like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beef Ravioli 0 Posted September 5, 2007 Not bad, not sure if I would have done it, but I don't look at it and automatically think you got torched. Good luck and please take a look at mine http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=284475 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fearsome 22 Posted September 6, 2007 Thanks for the help with mine...I think the trade is fine. The trade was essentially Smith for Brady which I think is a good deal for you. Lynch is the wild card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
