I was thinking so to and probably would not have done it if I did not have 2 1st rounder for both years anyway...

Yes.

[hoffdaddy 1]

Yep.

Scooby, holler back on my last offer, please.

[Scorpion 0]

well, I'm voting no. I think Scooby should get a pick or two back, say second rounders in 2003 and 2004 or something.

 

The delta between Plax (younger) and Horn is minimal, Walls isn't going to last long, and 3 picks?

 

Nope. No offense, I know you both want it, I just don't see it.

I was just referring to Scorp's take on it. His concerns are legit, I'd just like hear how you'd respond to it.

I asked for a lot in return because I was giving away a player of Horn's quality, the go-to WR on a great offensive team like the Saints. Plax is still the #2 in Pittsburgh, and they don't exactly have a QB gold mine going on there with Maddox / Stewart.

 

I'm sure Scooby's thinking was to add a WR stud to his club. I guess he'll have to explain himself, though.

In looking at my roster, I felt the only cog missing was a main, go to wr...I had Ward but I do not think he is a top notch wr for years to come(even tho this year he is doing well.)I did give up Burriss , who I did like alot, but he is splitting the tds every other week. Horn should be the guy who gets the catches, yards and td;s each week. I would not have done this trade if I did not have 2 1st rounders this year and next. I am hoping I keep on a roll and my pick will be lower than Ty's...

Well, there goes that plan.

Enjoy the 1.07, Ty!

Of course, it's all on Ahman...

No sympathy from me with Marshall Faulk on the pine for my stretch run.

Okay, let's jump start this board.

 

169 -- Plaxico Burress

169 -- Joe Horn

[TyCobb 0]

Plax is listed first merely alphabetically. Horn is clearly the better wideout.

[TyCobb 0]

Besides, if we consider Plax and Horn equals, it still begs the question.

 

Who wouldn't give up two 1st rounders and a 3rd for Walls?
