So this guy reckons he has the ultimate QB in Aaron Rodgers, and is looking to cash in by trading Peyton Manning. He's offering me Manning and Donald Driver, for Terrell Owens. Is Manning enough of an upgrade at QB, to cover the loss of T.O. to Donald Driver?

 

I've never been one to over-value QBs. The Waiver wire has a few options available - Garrard, Hasselbeck, J.T. O'Sullivan, Tarvaris Jackson - but maybe it's enough to find one decent matchup each week (unlimited Free Agency moves allowed). Perhaps I should wait until this weeks games have played out to get a better idea of the value of the QBs concerend?.

 

My Team

QB: Matt Cassel, Jake Delhomme

RB: Marshawn Lynch, Thomas Jones, Darren McFadden, Darren Sproles, Tim Hightower, Fred Jackson

WR: Terrell Owens, Jerricho Cotchery, Dwayne Bowe, Isaac Bruce,

TE: Kellen Winslow, Vernon Davis

 

His Team

QB: Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers

RB: Earnest Graham, Edgerrin James, Matt Forte, Jerious Norwood, Sammy Morris

WR: Reggie Wayne, Donald Driver, Santana Moss, Patrick Crayton, Muhsin Muhammad

TE: Todd Heap, Robert Royal

 

Start: QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, W/T, W/R

 

Passing Yards (25 yards per point)

Passing Touchdowns (6)

Interceptions (-2)

Rushing Yards (10 yards per point)

Rushing Touchdowns (6)

Reception Yards (10 yards per point)

I would probably do it.

 

Manning can only get better (he has to) and your QB's are really not that good. Yes, losing TO will hurt a bit, but Driver will have some big games as well in that offense. Your WR will still be pretty good with Cotchery, Driver and Bowe (flex). The upgrade from Delhomme to Peyton will more than make up for the loss of Owens.

Grab O'Sullivan and/or Hasselbeck from the WW. Right now, O'Sullivan would be a good play and Hasselbeck has Branch/Engram returning soon, so should be back to more like his normal self in a few weeks.

 

If you insist on trying to get Manning, also try to get Driver and Forte as well.
