Need advice on major trade, will help yours!

Recommended Posts

We're in a PPR league (with return yards) with 1 QB, 2RB, 4 W/T and 1 Flex (Q, R, T). My starters are Brees, S. Slaton, Pi. Thomas, We Welker (if healthy), S. Breaston, Burleson, and Coles. I'm useing Big Ben as my flex. My bench is Thomas Jones, Moreno, Fred Taylor, Shaun Hill, Tedd Ginn, Austin, Jacoby Jones.

 

I've been offered S Jax for Rothelsberger. This would give me the option of using SJAX in palce of Rothelsberger in the flex spot or a few other parameters. Should I do this? I'm thinking that this a buy low situation.

;) I wouldn't do it. You need a week 5 fill in for brees, with your current roster that is Big Ben vs the Detroit Lions or Shaun Hill vs. Atlanta (Minus Frank Gore). I think Atlanta gives the 49ers all they want that day but I think Ben should air it out against a Detroit secondary that is very beatable. the predicted values of the S jax and B Roth also give the edge to Roth in the flex spot so only if you have to fill an RB spot would I think about this one. I think you pay too much to get too little.

The flex scoring setting is the key.

 

QB's usually score more points than RB's and Big Ben is running a passing offense this year.

 

 

The past three seasons:

 

Big Ben - 18 21.3 16.0

 

S Jax - 20.6 13.6 15.9

 

The STL offense is horrendous.

 

I'd go with BB.

 

Thanks for answering mine.

Id do it for sure, you have to think rest of the year, as the winter comes and Pitts starts playing

cold games they run more and less Ben.

 

The real risk overal is that Stevie Jackson gets hurt

 

Id still make the deal and go with Stevie over Big Ben

I don't have any experience w/ the format you're in but it sounds like QBs get more points so I guess I would hold off and keep Big Ben. Although don't expect huge things from Roethlisberger b/c their run game seemed a little better last week and Holmes seems to be in a slump the past 2 weeks (maybe related to his wrist injury).
