Randy Moss vs Micheal Turner

[The Grand Master 0]

Just like the topic says. I'm looking for opinions. Which player do you see having the better stats in a non-PPR league.

 

Turner's schedule is brutal with some bright spots here and there. His Wk15 and Wk16 games are NYJ and Buffalo respectively.

Moss's schedule looks more friendly and sees Buffalo and Jacksonville in those playoff weeks.

 

Turner's pros: He's guaranteed to get the ball near 20 times every game and always gets the goal-line carries. Even against good Ds he's likely to put up a TD.

Turner's Cons: He's continued his habit of not doing well against good defenses and hasn't had that breakout game yet this year.

 

Moss's pros: These seem obvious.

Moss's cons: Waiting on Brady to get back to form. As a WR his targets can vary by week, though he'll always see a good amount of looks.

 

So what's your opinion on these two elite FF players

You should give us the rest of your roster so we can tell you if it's a good trade or not.

Moss, he'll be consistent and the upside is there as Brady finds his groove. I live in Atlanta (although I'm a skins fan) and Turner is more a function of the schedule. He'll do well against bad teams and not so well against the good teams. It was his MO last season and in watching him he looks a little slower this season.

It's close. So I tend to lean RB in those areas. Non PPR league pushes Moss's value down. The Pats haven't been throwing deep. Now with Welker back, Brady a month in to shake off the rust, RBs finding their roles in the offense I do think the long balls will come. However, Turner is going to see a lot of carries and Gonzo and White are enough to keep defenses honest. I don't think you say with confidence that Moss will score more TDs than Turner going forward. I'd hang my hat on Turner.

[Laurence Maroney's Nuts 2]

Once Welker is 100% healthy, Moss will be the #2 receiver on that team, and maybe even the #3 or #4 depending on the emergence of Edelman and Galloway. And with Brady's propensity to sling the rock to Ben Watson, Moss may be the #5 receiver. And with Kevin Faulk vulturing receptions, well, let's just say things don't look good for Moss.

 

Now Turner on the other hand -- he has the constant threat of superstud-in-the-waiting, aka Jerious Norwood constantly breathing down his neck and impressing the coaches. Norwood is due. Annnnnnnnny minute, Norwood will start cutting into Turner's workload. (Taps imaginary wrist watch)...... Annnnnnny minute now. And you cant rule out Ovie Mughelli considering the Falcons have been leaning on him in the redzone.

 

 

So you should probably make the trade.

I think Moss scores more points than Turner from here on out, but that doesn't really answer your question. You can't look at trades in a vaccuum. You have to look at the total net change.

 

Take a team like this in a 2 rb/3 wr starting league for example

 

Turner, Ray Rice, Ryan Grant

Andre Johnson, Dwayne Bowe and Sims-Walker

 

You make that trade and the new starting lineup might look like

 

Rice/Grant

Moss/AJ/Bowe

 

if you don't it looks like

 

Turner/Rice

AJ/Bowe/Walker

 

So the question in this case isn't necessarily who is better out of Moss and Turner but who's the better out of Turner/Sims-Walker and Moss/Grant I that case I wouldn't make the trade. If my runningbacks were something like Turner/PThomas/Rice I would definitely make it.

Moss maybe the #3 or maybe #5 reciever i really hope your a little smarter than this post you wrote

 

Guess you didnt read where last week Galloway was inactive because he screws up the offense!!! By week 6 or maybe 7 Moss and Brady will have their timing back and will be putting up #s like old They got their first TD last week and expect more and more and more and more to FOLLOW

 

But back to topic, Moss will out score Turner by 70 points rest of season
