IMMensaMind 460 Posted August 26, 2014 Yes you do. You need the RB, and the difference between Graham and VD/Ertz may not be as big as the difference you suffer should bush or mathews go down - Gio is nearly certainly a better play than either of them week to week regardless. In addition, I think Sanders will be your WR2, and outperform Maclin. Your team name should be the Crystal Chandeliers, lol - you have a whole lot of brittle high ceiling players there! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rallo 132 Posted August 26, 2014 I would stand pat. Gio hasn't been impressing anyone this preseason, and I think you have enough depth... although fragile depth... to make a run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,489 Posted August 26, 2014 Bernard becomes our number one RB , and Sanders becomes our number two WR . I like the deal I would go for it you can use help at both of them positions . I think it's a upgrade for this team . Losing Graham is tough but you also get Davis , now he is no Graham but he is still very good . So yea do,the deal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JtmoneyJag 25 Posted August 26, 2014 I agree, stay put. You can do better than that for Graham and if you can't you shouldn't make the trade. Graham is elite, elite. It would not surprise me to see him out do last year's performance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would not surprise me to see him out do last year's performance. exactly... it seems silly to trade talent for depth this early... now if you had a couple of critical injuries then I could see you unloading graham, but I think a lot of people around here are overvaluing gio and sanders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
$epphori$ 118 Posted August 26, 2014 I would not do it. Gio is going to split time with Hill Vernon will not put up those numbers with Crab back Vereen will be a good back this year if he stays healthy. Stand pat my friend good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted August 26, 2014 He is trying to pull a fast one on you by making it seem like bernard is a far superior option to thomas, when it could easily end up much closer than you think. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This Always try to keep the highest level of talent at as many positions on ur starting roster. I always trade depth for an upgrade at said position...DO NOT FALL FOR IT!!! Unless of course its me trading with you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Challenger 72 Posted August 26, 2014 I like Gio, but why bother trading so early in the season. People just bored and got nothing better to do... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted August 26, 2014 Id make the trade. Gio is a high upside RB and vernon is a decent TE replacement. Plus you get the wrs wich are upside depth upgrades from Lafell and Maclin who is unplayable to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dehaven123 31 Posted August 26, 2014 i wouldn't do it and i dont think it's that close to a pull the trigger type deal either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JtmoneyJag 25 Posted August 26, 2014 Anyone who drafts Jimmy Graham is gonna get burned. Only if he gets hurt (which could be said for any player). If healthy, he will be the #1 TE again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedzoneMonster 102 Posted August 27, 2014 For the love of god do not make that trade! I have no faith Gio is going to be any better than the rbs u already have. Cannot be sure sanders will be any better than Tate or Maclin and almost certainly not better than Cobb. I AM sure Graham will be better than Davis! there is ZERO reason to trade right now. What if Ertz does blow up as many think he will? THEN u could make a much better trade trading either Ertz or Graham, and for players you'll know are performing bc they'd have played some games already. He's also probably panicking bc the SF offense has looked REALLY bad in preseason. Don't inherit that potential problem by taking Davis! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
