PorscheT1 0 Posted September 20, 2012 10 man league, standard scoring, QB,RB,RB,WR,WR,Flex,TE,K,DEF. My team before the trade: QB - Brady RB - MJD, Gore, Bradshaw, Turner, Wilson WR - Wayne, Bowe, DJax, Garcon, Amendola, Lafell TE - Gonzo I felt that my WR crew was pretty solid, but didn't really have a top 10 in there. So I went ahead and offered up this trade. Brady, Gore, Bowe, DJax For Newton, Nicks, Matthews At first I was liking this trade, but now that the other team accepted I'm feeling that perhaps I gave up a bit too much. Was 4 vs 3 going too far? I felt like I was deep enough at WR that I could give up 2 and not really suffer much from it, and with Nicks being out this week it would tempt the other owner into accepting. Also, I think I may have boned myself a bit because the trade says it will be processed on Sunday the 23rd and reflect week 3 lineups. Since Cam is playing tonight, I'll have to grab a QB off waivers for this Sunday (unless I'm unaware of something). Anyhow, any feedback (positive or negative) is welcome. Thanks, and I'll reply with whatever advice I can give as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks, and I'll reply with whatever advice I can give as well Brady for Newton = push. Lots of upside on both sides. Gore for Mathews = you win. Bowe for Nicks = unless Nicks gets healthy quick he wins Djax? Personally I've never liked him. He's streaky and you've got the depth to absorb his loss PROVIDED Nicks gets (and stays) healthy. Considering you only start 2 WRs I like this trade. mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=407711 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PorscheT1 0 Posted September 20, 2012 I appreciate the feedback, thanks I agree, Brady and Newton are pretty much a wash. I actually missed the first 2 rounds of the draft this year and it gave me Brady. I'm a Giants fan, so I won't be missing him I'm hopeful that Nicks is back healthy next week, if not you're right, I probably lost out on that side of the trade. Oh well, here's hoping!

Acaeagle 1 Posted September 20, 2012 I think you got the better deal. Your side has way more upside, which I think will only help you in the coming weeks. Good trade Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adidas 2 Posted September 20, 2012 Ony thing I don't like is giving up Bowe. I think he is going to have a huge year (contract year and he has a huge ego). Letting Brady go doesn't sit too well with me either as I think he is close to getting pissed off and lighting the season up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
