Good Trade?

  • jpake1
    Another player is offering me Rivers, DMC, and S. Jackson for Brady, Spiller, and Stevie J. Would you make the call? A bit of background info-- here's my starting team: Brady, Matthews, Spiller, Welker, Maclin, Gronk, and I have JStew, DWill, and Stevie J for a flex. When healthy and performing, a 3 headed monster of Matthews, DMC, and SJax can be deadly. However, that isn't the case right now and I'm not excited about Brady leaving.

    Other guys makes out. Brady is way better than anyone else in the deal.

    I'm pissed, at least four people vetoed. They say I'm raping him.

    I wouldn't do that, no way.

    You're losing the best player (Brady) and DMC is the definition of inconsistent so far this year. S Jax, I've never been a big fantasy fan of; just doesn't score.

    Thank those owners for helping you avoid a huge mistake.

    I'm not big on spiller and stevie. Spiller is back to sharing and stevie is a sometimes flex with a healthy jstew. I'm buying low on dmc and sjax. I think they make up the points I lose with brady.

    Right but you're taking up 2 starting spots to replace 1.

    Huh? Rivers, dmc, and sjax would all be starting for me along with matthews, welker, maclin, and gronk. Stevie would be on bench for other guy.

    It was in reference to that point.

    You don't trade away a 25 points player for two 12 and 13 point players.

    Not to mention Jackson hasnt seen the endzone in 8 games and only once in the last years worth of games. He is a bench player who you start during byes at best.

    Well at least you didn't mistakenly trade Jimmy Graham for Andre Johnson, haha. Got my 2 Yahoo leagues confused and thought it was Andre Johnson for Jermaine Gresham. I was pretty tired and had a few drinks during the Reds game so just jumped on it without thinking. Oh well.

    As for the original trade, I honestly thought it looked reasonable. I'm not high on anybody in the trade except Brady but didn't think either side was getting ripped off.

    Hmm. Which team is better? Rivers, matthews, dmc, sjax, welker, maclin, and gronk --- brady, matthews, spiller, welker, maclin, steviej, and gronk?

    Team 2.
  • SportsAndLady
    EASILY team 2.

    Never second guessed before in fantasy. For what its worth all the sites say I make out by 60pts going forward.
