fantasyfanatic Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I say do it. You can trade a WR for a B/U Rb later. Definatly do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tally Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 I would do it. I was behind W. parker just as much as anyone 3 weeks ago, but man has he fallin off big time, and it looks like P. Pass is becoming more and more involved in the NE offense. Just dosent seems like much, if any drop off at RB at this point and you'll get the TE you want. Go for it!

emandg Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Bennets is broken see its like he doesn't exist in this trade. If you really like Shockey than sure. Vick is so in and out of the lineup that Alge won't be a consistent threat. Be careful though - you have 0 running back depth - not that Parker is dependable anymore after the return of Staley and Bettis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalEmpire.com Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I'd do it... even though Bennet is out for a while, it's not like Parker is going to do much of anything the rest of the season. It sounds like Bus is demanding more of a workload, so between him and Staley it looks bad for Fast Willie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glabra Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I was in Pittsburgh and all the talk is how drastically Willie's tailed off and that the Bus is ready to take over. Looks like it might make sense for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Football Fever Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I don't know bennett's status, but I think Willie will start to lose carries. I like what Shockey and Manning are doing and the combo will only get better. We are starting to see what all that Shockey hype was 2-3 years ago. Crumpler is good but Vick is more a RB than a QB. So with all that said, I would do the trade. Good luck and thanks for your post on mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimshady31 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Agree with other posts here that Parker's star is fading a bit in the PIT running game. Shockey seems to be getting in the flow with Manning and with Vick in/out of injury pretty much every week I wouldn't trust Crumpler to put up same type numbers as last season. I'd give a lean to do this trade if you REALLY want Shockey that bad, go get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishPride Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 (edited) Can you figure out this answer? I like the trade and its a plus for you! Except the whole thumb thing with Bennett but who cares you get Shockey...Please check mine Edited October 20, 2005 by IrishPride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
