Drafted TJones and Westbrook as my keeper, sucked at QB started out 2-3, traded Chris Johnson and Andre Johnson for Brees and McFadden. Went 7-1 the rest of the way and #1 seed. :lol:

I had a similar one - traded Ryan Grant for DeAngelo Williams and Kevin Curtis.

 

I also traded MJD for Aaron Rodgers. That would be a wash, but I acquired Rodgers the week before Matt Schaub (my other QB at the time) went down with an injury. If I didn't pick up Rodgers I would have been left with Gus Frerotte as my starter, so it was a deal that has paid off quite well for me.

Dealt Grant & Steve Smith for Westbrook to try and take advantage of the Eagles matchup with Cincy a couple weeks ago. It FAILED miserably and barring a miracle, i'll be out of the post seaon in my best $ league for the first time in 5 seasons. That said, with Westy's Turkey Day explosion.. I now have a great shot at out total points race and a 25% share of a big pot.

 

So this deal has worked out very well for me.. in a pretty weird way.

I traded a 7th round pick for Plaxico Burress at the trade deadline.

 

That's paying off huge - in my league we get points for being hurt and shooting yourself.

Calvin Johnson for Kurt Warner (he already had Drew Brees). Had to do it because my first pick this year, Brady, obviously went out. And my waiver wire pickup, Matt Schaub, also went out.

 

Wound up getting Bernard Berrian and Santonio Holmes off of the waiver wire (both were hurt at the time).

Jason Campbell and LeRon McClain for Fitzgerald

Slaton and Jacobs for AD

 

But mostly, the trades I didn't make benefited me the most. Was going after Portis, Westbrook and S-Jax all season and at least 2 of those would have bit me.

I made some of the WORST trades this year...so i will post for who I traded too. I traded royal and Tony Gonzalez early in the season for a slumping Braylon Edwards and Darren McFadden...and i traded Steve Slaton for a freshly injured Reggie Bush. The good news is that I am in 2nd place and winning in points :thumbsup: PS: I also dropped Thomas Jones.

Week 4 I traded Julius Jones and Muhsin Muhammad and received MJD and Wes Welker...in a PPR league. I was 2-2 at the time. Now am 9-4, solid 2nd place and highest scoring team in the league.

 

But this was the year of the non-trades for me. Throughout the season I tried multiple times (in different leagues) to get Plaxico, Earnest Graham, Hightower, MBIII and had offered up Boldin, Welker, Ronnie Brown, MJD, Brees, and Westbrook. Thankfully none were accepted and I made the playoffs in those 3 leagues only because the trade was denied. :thumbsup:

I got Cassel, T.Edwards (Keeper 3 years), J.Stewart (Keeper 3 years), and Reggie Wayne and gave up Matt Forte (Keeper 3 years), Carson Palmer (the week before he stopped playing), Roy Williams, and Matt Leinhart... Getting Stewart influenced me to bid almost all my FA money on DeAngelo Williams who I have started almost every week since helping me on my 12 game winning streak to end the year
