Foster for Rivers/Wallace/Ingram

[Smoot4Prez 0]

Had the following trade proposed to me today:

 

I give:

Arian Foster

 

I get:

 

Philip Rivers

Mike Wallace

Ingram

 

It's a .5ppr 5points for passing TDs league. Standard other than that. My Team:

 

QB: Tebow

WR: Nicks, Lloyd

RB: Foster, Gore

TE: Gates

WR/RB/TE: Matthews

K Novak

D Washington

 

Bench: DHB, Jordy Nelson, Kendal Hunter, Ben Tate, Jackie Battle, Vernon Davis

 

Any advice? Thoughts? Trades you want input on?

Thats a tough on in my opinion. You've got Gore to help what you'll lose @ RB. If Battle not a bad #2. Tebow's shaky but Rivers has been disappointing all season. Mike Wallace would be a huge boost at WR w/ Nicks being so fragile............normally id say no, but w/ the condition your team is in......tough call

 

Stay w/ what you got. I dont like Ingram in the situation in NO and Foster gets a ton of touches in the passing game

 

sorry for rambling

I agree with most of your points. I'm just nervous about relying on Matthews/Gore as my main RBs as they are both injury prone. I mean, I have Hunter if Gore goes down, but still. Thanks for the input! (I'm leaning no as well. I really like Foster's playoff schedule.)

You're in trouble at QB either way since Rivers has been awful but everyone has to believe that he will break out at some point. You'll be strong at WR with this deal although giving up Foster will hurt your ppr a bit. I'd probably do it and just hope Rivers comes through eventually.

I would not do that deal. Rivers is not playing well, and you never know about Ingram in that RBBC. Foster is the workhorse, too much to give up.
