Good trade?

Recommended Posts

I get:

 

RB Larry Johnson

QB Philip Rivers

 

He gets:

 

RB Ryan Grant

QB Matt Hasselbeck

 

My QBs in this league are currently Hasselbeck and David Garrard. My other RBs are Adrian Peterson (Minn), Earnest Graham, Jamal Lewis, and I recently acquired Darren Sproles off waivers. I could really use the QB boost, but am I giving up too much for Rivers?

 

TIA!

I think it's worth a gamble. You have good depth at RB, even if LJ doesn't bounce back. Rivers looks like he's really coming into his own.

It's worth it. You're basically giving up Ryan Grant for Phillip Rivers, which fits your needs. LJ is bonus if he comes around, though I doubt he will. It's worth it just to have a reliable, consistent QB, which you currently lack.

I like the deal.....grant is dinged up right now and likely in a rbbc the rest of the year with brandon jackson and some dude named lumpkin dumpkin.

 

You will get a better qb in rivers and stashed LJ back on your bench and see what happens....LJ is a real nice guy to fill in for bye weeks.

 

i say go for it........thanks, cornkobb

I would not do it. LJ is a dead man walking. I do not see him getting any better. Once LT is healthy they will be running a lot more to. If you need a non-elite QB that still puts up good numbers look to get Kurt Warner or Aaron Rogers. Some teams probably have them as backups. Don't forget Hasselbeck is still going to be good once he gets Engram/Branch back and he should have a good week 3 against the Rams.

I'd say the trade looks pretty even. You don't <i>really</i> need LJ, so that fact that he sucks shouldn't matter too much. And if things miraculously change, then awesome :headbanger:

 

Thanks for answering mine!

Outside of this week, Hasselback probably won't have to many more productive games...atleast until he gets someone besides a TE and retreaded wide receivers to throw the ball to.

 

Grant has been a bust so far this year.

 

I have Rivers on my team this year and he's been great so far, I think his numbers might drop when LT is back up to 100%.

I dunno man , Hassleback may come around but then again where are his weapons ? I think LJ is done fantasy wise this year. KC is just horrible. Grant hasnt lit the world on fire this year but its a long season , plenty of time to get healthy and GB offense looks real good this year. If you didnt have AP as your #1 back I would say no , but since you do.....GO FOR IT. Rivers will be the better QB all year and the loss of Grant is not a huge deal considering you have AP and decent depth behind him.

Thanks for mine...sorry for the late reply.

 

This deal is a hammer. Getting Rivers is a great move. Your RBs are stacked and Grant, I feel, will be hobbled for the rest of the year, which is why I am shopping him. Do this deal with supreme confidence. Hasselbeck has seen better days and his offense is crap.

I'm not at all high on LJ, and think you're probably giving slightly more than you're getting, but it does fit your needs so I'd say go for it.

 

Thanks for mine.

I like the deal!!

 

Rivers > Hasselback for this season.

 

And Grant and L.J are a toss up.

 

Grant is injured right now, L.J isn't performing much but could come around.

 

They're about even!

 

So you get the better deal, by a little!
