DiaperKid 2 Posted September 19, 2013 How do you guys feel about Foster? Think I should try to trade him away for someone now? I feel like he could be splitting a lot of carries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brutal Brutus 182 Posted September 19, 2013 I would agree with that. I think its becoming more and more clear that Tate is the better back at this point. If Foster goes down again, he could become the second option when he returns. You should be able to get solid value for him, especially if you find a desperate owner.

DiaperKid 2 Posted September 19, 2013 Who do you think I should go for? I'd like another RB. This is my team in a 12-team non-PPR league. Tom Brady Arian Foster Chris Johnson Knowshon Moreno Pierre Garcon Marques Colston Tony Gonzalez Mason Crosby Greg Jennings Denarius Moore Ben Tate Jackie Battle Doug Baldwin Willis McGahee Philip Rivers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brutal Brutus 182 Posted September 19, 2013 It can be tricky trading a RB for a RB straight up because its stricktly a gut call. You basically have to find someone in your league who has a RB your higher on than Foster, and that same person has be higher on Foster than his guy. I think foster is a higher long term injury risk than Ray Rice, I like Richardson with the Colts, and I think Spiller will rebound. So I would look at guys like that, but since you have Tate I wouldn't fault you for holding on to Foster either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmburrell06 0 Posted September 19, 2013 Yeah I would go for a trade. The name itself will get you some major offers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DiaperKid 2 Posted September 19, 2013 Yea I didn't think a straight up trade would work but a combination trade is always hard to figure out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brutal Brutus 182 Posted September 19, 2013 Combination trade always make it easier to up grade, but you don't have alot to pair up with Foster to make an upgrade. You could pair up Rivers to a guy hurting at Qb. Since you have Brady who isnt playing well I wouldn't do that. You could throw in Tate and Foster which make a solid package for a top RB, but unless that back is AP, I probably wouldn't do that either. If you have a Browns fan in your league you could try and package him with Mcgahee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yamirfaz 3 Posted September 20, 2013 In my league, an owner who is 2-0 is going to trade Doug Martin for Foster. I am just going to sit back and enjoy their fall from #1. I don't even consider Foster a great RB1 with the time share with Tate. He has name recognition, but I am not high on him at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
