Trade Help!!

  • slingshot4ever
    So alot of my players were injured this weekend in a 12 team league:

    Hightower - Out for year
    McFadden - Out for 2 weeks
    Moss - Out for 5-7 weeks
    Wells - Out for 2 weeks

    There isn't shit available for free agents. So I have three running backs not playing week 8. These are also the only 3 RBs on my roster. So I am keeping McFadden and Wells on roster since they will be back soon, but I need 2 RBs to start this week or just take the hit and chalk this week up as a loss. I received the following trade proposal today:

    I give up Andre Johnson for the following:

    Brandon Marshall
    Ryan Torain
    Cedric Benson

    My other WRs are Holmes and Boldin. Our league allows TE for the flex position and I have Pettigrew and Vernon Davis. Do I take this trade and give up Johnson? Or do I just eat a loss this week and hang on to my top receiver?

    Just take the L this week...you never know in fantasy, you could start a "DeMarco Murray" and win.

    Don't trade away your key players to get 1 win in week 8

    Thats not a bad trade. I'd have to think about that one for a few.

    I would not do that trade. You trade away Johnson and your WR will suck. Just take the L this week.

    That trade is a pretty shitty trade for you, so dont do it. Just take the L, and hope for the best with the guys coming off injuries. Cant sacrifice your season for a W in week 8....especially when it still isnt guaranteed.

    Doesnt look like Andre will play this week either. I'd probably do it.

    What's your record? Are you in decent shape to make the playoffs or on the outside looking in?

    If you are in decent shape, I agree with the other guys and take the L this week. Also, even if you make the trade, you will still be down a RB this week since Benson isn't playing, so you will still probably lose this week.

    I'm 3rd of 12 teams. I declined the trade.
