Philaliscous 0 Posted October 21, 2008 I literally JUST traded Tomlinson and Jonathon Stewart for Brian Westbrook... My Team looks like this now: Jay Cutler Trent Edwards Brian Westbrook Steve Slaton Earnest Graham Rudi Johnson Larry Fitzgerald Steve Smith Calvin Johnson Eddie Royal Isaac Bruce What do you think??? I was sick of waiting around on LT and felt like I did not need Stewart....Honest Opinions please Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gram 0 Posted October 21, 2008 i think you gave up a lot for someone who is accident prone. but but westy and slaton is really nice along w/your awesome wrs. but the people who take chances win fantasy not the ones who are safe. mine please http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=329835 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philaliscous 0 Posted October 21, 2008 Thanks for the response, I felt like taking a risk and just really did not want to wait around. I got screwed tonight with Cutler blowing balls and dropped to 4-3 even though i lead in points but whatever. Thanks again, anyone else feel like weighing in?

We Tigers 71 Posted October 21, 2008 If Westbrook's healthy, it's a good trade, mostly because of your RB depth. I trust him a lot more than LT--every week Westbrook played he was golden--and you can absorb the loss of Stewart with Graham and Slaton on board. I think you'd be wise to track down the Buckhalter owner and see if you can get Buck off him for Royal or Bruce to protect your new investment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrgymrat 0 Posted October 21, 2008 I have Westy and him not playing has been killing me. As long as he plays this trade is good, if he sits again it's gonna hurt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I traded Josh Morgan and Eddie Royal for Antonio Bryant and Correll Buckhalter...So my new investment is handcuffed!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Philaliscous 0 Posted October 23, 2008 Thanks, I am feeling pretty good at the moment. It feels nice not having to worry about LT anymore!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sabreboy77 1 Posted October 23, 2008 Since you picked up Buck I like the trade even more. If Westbrook stays healthy the reward could be huge. Please see mine http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=329847 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mizzoin 1 Posted October 23, 2008 Like the trade... Westbrook is a great #1, and then you have Slaton and Graham who have been good too... good trade! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jdibella 0 Posted October 23, 2008 I'm not sure about this trade. While Westbrook is capable of putting up insane numbers, he does have a history of getting hurt. I probably wouldn't have done this trade; but like others have said, those who take chances win in fantasy.
