3-0, thinking of taking a risk

[sped1103 0]

I'm thinking of offering Foster and Chambers to the SA owner. He's 1-2 and looking for help. Thoughts?

 

My Team:

 

Manning, Eli QB NYG 

Carr

 

Bell, Tatum RB DEN 

Foster, DeShaun RB CAR 

Johnson, Rudi RB CIN 

Barber, Marion RB DAL 

Jerious Norwood

 

Boldin, Anquan WR ARI 

Chambers, Chris WR MIA 

Evans, Lee WR BUF 

Marques Colston

 

Wilkins, Jeff K STL 

 

Cowboys, DST DST DAL 

Vikings, DST DST MIN

(Non ppr, 6 pts for all TDs, start 1QB, 2RBs, 2WRs, and a flex (RB/WR/TE)

That would leave you VERY thin at WR. I'd probably hold off. Who knows how long SA will be out.

Good point. I probably have to start all three (Boldin, Evans, and Colston) or two of them and MBIII at flex. Not the best choices for the next 4-6 weeks but as I said, I'm 3-0 and I forgot to mention everyone else in my division is 1-2 so I do have a nice cushion. I guess I'm really excited about potentially starting Rudi, SA, and Tatum all at once.

 

Anyone else?

It is a risk, but I do like the payoff in the end. Rudi and Foster are serviceable, but if Alexander comes back in 2 weeks, those who sold him low are gonna be crying...I would definately think about pulling the trigger on this one

see mine please

i dont think you can afford to do this. you'd be left with no WRs as colston is not lock to continue on the great pace he's been on

Taking chances wins championships but can also lose them. I think this is one of those although it sounds like he'll be down about 4 weeks I'd take a chance and pull the trigger. You're right about having a stud backfield down the stretch and rudi and tatum might carry you to that point except on the byes. I think even though it leaves you thin at wr that you can maybe pick up someone like B. edwards etc... that is hot. Wr are easy to find that surface through out the year. I don't like foster's chances of making it the whole year anyways. Also depends on what kind of rb help might be out there this next week with tatum on bye? Is Dayne available? Miami hasn't looked that great against the run.

any other opinions? leave a link and I'll answer yours.

I like it - Thinking outside the box! Consider waiting a week and then offering Evans and Foster tho!

[Neckturd 0]

I agree, hold tight. I wouldn't jump at that because Chambers has sucked so far. Wait it out a little longer...thanks for mine

I say go for it. If I were the SA owner, I would not do that deal. It's worth giving up those two for a shot at SA for the 2nd half of the season.

i'd check the available ww wr's befor pulling the trigger on this deal.............also what are the bye weeks for rudi & bell??? SA's first game back will not happen on astroturff.....so don't expect him to play untill after week 6 at the earliest

[Youngblood 0]

I'd make this deal actually. Chambers is not the top tier WR since Culpepper has been struggling and your RB depth would allow you to ride out the Alexander injury. He'll come back fine since it's only a tiny crack.

 

Pull the trigger!!

Thanks for all the help, guys! I sent the offer late last night and the owner came back to me this morning asking for Tatum Bell instead of Foster. No way that's going to happen and he's not willing to budge. Way too much to give up especially now that Bell is the starting back.

 

Thanks again...you guys are awesome!

[ColtFan 0]

I also have Chambers. I'm giving him and Culpepper another chance this week vs. Houston. If Brunell can look good againts them Culpepper should to.

 

Hang on to Chambers this week.

[Xtreme Colts Fan 1]

Well.....I would do it, I'm optimistic of SA. I am 1-2 and traded Marvin Harrison for SA and Ma-Mo....Yes you read that right, the guy gave me Shaun's backup too for insurance, But I need help in the Backfield. I can probably afford to go 1-4 and still get in, but I needed that strong Back to lift me up in the later weeks. I started 0-5 last season and was one TD from playoffs, then outscored everyone in the Playoffs. So I hope he pays off for me

i would do it you would be getting a stud who may only miss two weeks,and then be real tough come playoff time.take a look at my trade i made a couple of hours ago http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=238631

[ziggyschiefs 0]

i think SA is gonna come back healthy as long as they keep him out long enough. he should be a sutd the 2nd half of the year. it would be tight at WR but you have decent players. you could always pick up another WR here and there or trade an RB for one. i think it might be worth it as long as SA isn't gone too long and you can hold your own in the meantime.

 

it's a little early to gloat about 3-0 (it is only 3-0 not 10-0)

 

i hope that helps.
