I figure I can make this deal because I have Glen Coffee, so I would have the SF running game locked up. And SF has a nice schedule. Brandon Marshall seems to be coming around somewhat. This is also a keeper league, where I get to keep 3 players. So Marshall would definitely be a legit keeper with his skill alone. I am also falling out of favor with Forte. I know he had tough matchups to start the season. But he didnt look that good against seattle. He is starting to look over rated. Let me know what you think?

With what you have already on your roster, i would do this trade in a minute.

 

Gore is a stud when healthy and you have Coffee. Gore will catch his share

of passes also.

It's a fair trade. Forte still has good value cause of .5 ppr marshall will catch more passes than manningham for sure. However, do you think or are you OK with who you have to start at RB the next 3 weeks while Gore is out? If so, do it. If not and you think it may cause you to lose and make you play catch-up when Gore returns, don't do it.

Agree with the trade. Gore is/was on fire, while Forte is slowly fading from being the main cog of the Bears offense. And even as a Giants homer, I'd trade Manningham for Marshall. Marshall is a proven #1, and should reach that level as the season progress, while Manningham is still living off the afterglow of those first two great games.

I'm a bit biased having Forte, but do have to agree with everyone. Key point made earlier is if your comfortable with your RB's until Gore returns. Like what this does for your receivers...thanks for mine!
