These guys need some help and I know that you and I both can provide enough piece of mind to help them make the right decision.
Check them out and lets here your take in the comments below.
Mike asks…
Ive got a few questions.
Should i trade brett farve/willis mcgahee for braylon edwards?
My roster as of today looks like this:
QB: Peyton Manning
QB/Bn: Brett Farve
RB1/2/3: Clinton Portis, Reggie Bush, Matt Forte
RB/Bn: Willis Mcgahee, Sammie Morris
WR1/2: Dwayne Bowe, Reggie Brown
W/T: Chris Cooley
WR/Bn: Reggie Williams, Michael Jenkins, Kevin Walter
K: John Carney
Def: Jacksonville
My take…
Mike, I can see why you are considering it. Alot of things I would need to know to making a final decision (how many RB’s do you start, what QB’s are available on your waiver wire, and scoring system). But if you can get a decent back up for Manning, you could defintely use a little help at WR and your depth at RB allows you to part with McGahee. I would do it to get yourself a solid WR1.
Don Quixote asks…
Probably not the forum, but will take anyone’s advice
The fellow in our league with Brady wants my QB Eli Manning.
I’m thinking of offering him Eli and TJ Housh for Aaron Rodgers and Plaxico.
Am I crazy, or is Plaxico’s upside worth taking a chance on Rodgers. (I have Delhomme as a backup)?
The guy that offered me the trade also has larry fitzgerald and had tom brady so he needs a qb and has no true starting RB. What should i do? Take edwards or fitzgerald?
My take…
Edwards? Not sure where that came from. But I think I get the jist. Over the long haul, I like Rodgers and Plax (or Fitz) better than Housh and Eli. Plax’s upside is good and Rodgers looked decent enough where you really aren’t taking a chance on him.
There ya have it. I want to thank Mike and Don for stopping and most of all you for helping all of us out. Next week I think I might try to throw together a cheat sheet of some kind so that I can answer all of your start sit questions faster.
See ya Sunday night with waiver wire pick-ups.

1Mike: I would, you are trading backups and getting the best player who will start for you.
Don: This is a toss up, I personally like the guys you’d get in the trade better, but they are very close.

2Don,
To further support your trade, If you look at Delhomme’s schedule after this week he has a lot of good match-ups. Furthermore the team is talking about using more spread formations when Steve Smith comes back. With their O-line and Rbs they will have to respect the run, opening things up for the passing attack.
In short you may be using Delhomme as much as Rodgers.

3Thanks to All … i’ll let you all know what happens …
Corey, the part about Fitzgerald and Edwards … I dont know where that came from. That wasn’t mine. But either way, thanks for posting the forum and getting me some advice.
It’s past midnight Sunday AM and I still can’t decide on my RBs. Definitely going with LJohnson v Oakland. But racking my brain over Turner v strong TB def or Cjohnson v. weak Cinicinnati def.
If I only win one more game this season, today’s game is it. Playing against defending champ who talks smack.

4@Don,
Good luck with that game against the smack talking champ. THose are always critical. That said, I don’t know what else to tell you on the Turner-Johnson dilemma.

6Larry Johnson is officially done as a top Running back in the NFL. His performance against Oakland (one of the worst run defense in the league) was truly sad to watch. LJ should just retire, or get caught smoking weed like another horrible running back this year that we thought would make a come back. I know what your going to say its the offensive line, but they played oakland.

7Joe,
I am not going to say the offensive line BUT why did he only get 12 carries? Read my thoughts on my start ‘em sit ‘em post.
Check this out.
Either way it is a bummer.
