blick 14 Posted October 29, 2008 We start 2 RB, 3 WR My team... RBs - Tomlinson, Slaton, Fargas/Mcfadden WRs - Marshall, Jennings, S. Moss, Berrian, Curtis I've been offered Jennings/Slaton for Peterson. What do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gundy89 0 Posted October 29, 2008 I would probably pull the trigger on that. Slaton is nice, but he's small and a rookie. I have him in 3 leagues, but I would move him in that deal for sure. You have the WR depth to handle the loss of Jennings. AP has a nice playoff schedule with DET, ARI, ATL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Moss, Berrian, Curtis I've been offered Jennings/Slaton for Peterson. What do you think? I like it. You have lots of WR depth and ADP with hopefully a more-healed LT2 (against a soft schedule) gives you a great backfield. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=331075 -help me?

Corky76 2 Posted October 29, 2008 The trade kind of depends on whether you think you're a lock to make the playoffs right now. Assuming your playoffs start in week 14- AP has some tough matchups between now and then but his matchups in the playoffs are like a ff owners wet dream! Minny's schedule: Week 10: Packers Week 11: @ Buccs Week 12: @ Jags Week 13: Bears Playoffs are Lions, Cardinals, and Falcons though which make him likely to be the clear cut #1 RB in the playoffs. Slaton has an easier schedule leading up to the playoffs as he plays the Bungles, Colts, and Browns but then it gets tougher after that. Looking at your team - I think you should have a pretty decent record though and should be able to make the playoffs and therefore I would most definitely do this deal!

dbuofi7 0 Posted October 30, 2008 While I like the trade, I'm not sure I would make it personally. You give up a lot to get ADP and while he has a better schedule through the playoffs, Jennings has been a top WR and Slaton is a solid back. Personally, I think I would stay with what you have.

ProfessorP 0 Posted October 30, 2008 No, you should not do this. Combined (in our league) Slaton and Jennings have 181 points to ADP's 103. The relative numbers are probably the same in yours, at least proportionately. Even factoring in any injuries, these differences are significant. You must ask yourself why the other person feels the exchange is good. Clearly he sees more value in Slaton and Jennings. With all due respect, the fact that Slaton is a rookie is irrelevant. Given that logic, ADP wouldn't have been any good as a rookie either (he was.) Slaton is quick, gets a lot of pass looks as well as runs, and he scores. Jennings is a top receiver.
