cchurchill75 0 Posted September 19, 2009 My Team: McNabb, Garrard Forte, Rice, J. Jones, T. Hightower C. Johnson, S. Smith, Ochocinco, Avery Shockey The guy offering up the trade is a Bears fan. Been trying to get Forte since this draft. At this point, I'm wondering if Forte and Jackson aren't about the same (featured backs on not so great offensive teams). Is the upgrade at TE worth it? Also - E. Manning for Garrard was also offered in this deal? Does anyone see Manning as an upgrade of Garrard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Durtee 0 Posted September 19, 2009 I think Forte has more upside than Jackson. Jackson is more injury prone and on a worse team. At least the Bears defense is decent and will keep them in games. The Rams will always be playing from behind. Gates would definitely be an upgrade over Shockey, but I like Shockey this year. I would probably just stay put. I'm not sure if that trade really makes your team any better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iron Dragon 0 Posted September 19, 2009 I don't think you can give up on Forte this early. You would upgrade at TE and QB though. I still would stay put. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus Shockey appears that he will be more involved in the offense as long as he can stay on the field.
