PrinceEatMeat 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Trade 1: I trade Kolb and DJax for Newton and AJ Green Trade 2: I trade V. Davis for either BJGE or Starks Here's my roster. Standard 10-team, non-ppr. QB Schaub, Kolb RB Gore, D Will, Bush, Helu, Scott WR Britt, DJax, Knox, Burleson, Decker, McCluster TE V. Davis, Graham D/ST Packers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
j0ker 3 Posted September 25, 2011 Thanks for the reply. I don't really see an upside to the first trade. Newton may be better than Kolb at the moment but will it stay that big of a gap all year? Also you would be torn between Newton and Schaub each week. Djax is better than Green loss there. Deffinitely do the second trade. Graham is a great play and Vernon Davis is struggling. By getting Green Ellis or Starks you will be upgrading your backs immensely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
p.man 7 Posted September 25, 2011 I like #2 for Starks. I think Starks has great upside. Thanks for the reply to my topic. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark32esu 18 Posted September 25, 2011 Trade 1: I wouldn't, it's risky trusting rookies, I think Newton will come back down to Earth and Green has a rookie QB throwing to him in a tough division. Trade 2: I would, Graham is a good TE in a good offense with a great QB, I would feel confident in him as your starter if you can get a productive RB for a TE.

Lacrosse Fool 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Agreed with everyone else, trade two I'd do, for Starks. You got TE covered, so a booming RB would help you out. Unless Newton stays hot, (doubt) I think 1 is a miss. Thanks for the replies. Very helpful. Opinion on one more? http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=390179&st=0&p=4573264&fromsearch=1entry4573264 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jessegroundwater 0 Posted September 25, 2011 I agree with everyone else on trade 1. Newton has been great so far and if i had him i would be trading him to try to get someone else while he is hot. So no on trade 1. But Trade 2 i would def. try to get Starks he has shown that he can do the job. And that is why he is getting more touches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taddman22 0 Posted September 25, 2011 I pretty much agree with everyone else. Trade one would be doable if you were in a Dynasty league but in a redraft I wouldn't do it. The second one I would do for Starks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TwentyFourSeven 23 Posted September 25, 2011 Trade #2 is great. Trade #1 not so good. Agree on this! Get Graham! The other trade doesn't do as much for you. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=390268 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

surfnturf3g01 0 Posted September 25, 2011 I like both of those trades if you can pull them off. Kolb is your backup QB (to Schaub, right?). Why not reach for Newton's upside? I think it balances out the slight dropoff between DJax & Randy Moss Jr. (Green). Might be smart to wait until Cam has an off-week & then maybe you don't have to give up DJax to get him... Anytime you can give up a low TE1 to get a RB2 with upside is a good trade in my opinion. Especially this year, when TEs are plentiful so far... Thanks for mine earlier.
