2011 Fantasy Football Trade Disscusion Thread

[Weeks]

I'll start off with one:

I Trade

Larry Fitzgerald
Marshawn Lynch

Other Person Trades

Felix Jones
Marques Colston

I'm not sure whether I should do this or not.

EDIT: I decided against it.

This trade is currently pending. Meaning ive already accepted it.

I'm trading:
Maurice Jones-Drew
Julio Jones
Aaron Hernandez

For:
Rashard Mendenhall
Deion Branch
Ryan Grant

My starting 2 WR's are Calvin Johnson and DeSean Jackson. I also have Plaxico Burress so giving up Jones wasnt a big deal to me. I value RM more than MJD because of the teams they play for. The Steelers week one was a fluke and RM should bounce back and have a great season. I also have Dallas Clark, so giving up Hernandez doesnt kill me. Just hope manning comes back before the Colts are out of the playoff picture.

Michael Turner(mine) for Ray Rice, yay or nay?

[Scott]

I think Turner is the better option. Ricky is gonna steal some yards/TDs from Rice.

Edit: If you are in a PPR, I say take the trade.

[TwistedLogic7]

I give:
Shonn Greene
Kyle Orton

I get:
Sam Bradford
Santonio HOLMES

This really couldn't be any further from the truth. There's a reason Rice has been consistently ranked higher than Turner in basically any preseason ranking you want to look at in any format besides TD only leagues. We're only a week in. So after Rice just ran for 150 on the Steelers, his value goes down?

If Rice stays healthy (no reason to think he won't... same can't be said for Turner) he should challenge for the top RB spot in Fantasy by the end of the year. Now having Leach (FB that was blocking for Foster during his record year last year) in front of him only makes that more possible.

Depends on your RB depth.

It's not very deep. Charles and McCoy are my starters and my only other RB besides Greene is James Starks.

But I figure if the trade goes through my WR's will be: Johnson, Wayne, Holmes, Meachem, Floyd and Colston (who shouldn't be out for too long). I would be able to trade one of them in exchange for a decent RB like a Green-Ellis or a Mark Ingram (depending on his performance over the next few weeks).
