MTSuper7 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Wondering if you guys agree with this list at all and who you would add to it: Dwayne Bowe - Mild rumblings about Cassel possibly getting benched along with the fact that Bowe seems to really only pile on the stats when defenses are soft at the end of a blowout... Makes me think he's worth trying to move when his value is at a peak. Stevan Ridley - Because he's a Patriots RB... maybe package him with a decent WR to try to land a mildly underperforming (TD-wise) stud like McCoy or Peterson Robert Griffin III - Maybe not just yet, but I keep thinking how Newton faded down the second half last year. Seems like a long season for a rookie QB. I could be wrong obviously, but rookies are always a bit scary. You have to wonder if he comes down to earth a bit. Chris Johnson - This is obvious after he finally broke out last week. Probably too obvious to work actually... Frank Gore (after this weekend vs. BUF) - The schedule gets tougher, and he just feels due for an injury. My gut says get what you can for him before week 6. Marques Colston - Name value and coming off a big week... you can probably deal him for something of value now. Alfred Morris - He has been steady and appears to have a stranglehold on the starting job. Just when a Redskin back seems safe, hmmm... probably the best time to deal before Shanahan pulls the rug out from under him. Seriously, how confident will you feel in his security if Morris fumbles this weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturphy Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Robert Griffin III - Maybe not just yet, but I keep thinking how Newton faded down the second half last year. Seems like a long season for a rookie QB. I could be wrong obviously, but rookies are always a bit scary. You have to wonder if he comes down to earth a bit. Just sold RG3 because I also own Roethlisberger. I think Big Ben outscores RG3 by years end. I like RG3 a lot, but I think I'm selling high right now and that he will fade. Can't ignore that he is still a rookie, and that other teams in the league will probably catch up to him defensively. I also think there's a high probability that RG3 gets creamed by someone and misses games. He runs quite a bit, and is not a big guy.

chris2114 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Sold Jackie Battle high lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White lightning Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'm torn with selling Welker high. I have been keeping track of the situation since week one and I understand Welker's downside going forward (Edleman replacing him in 2 TE sets once Hernandez returns and Bellicheck's unwillingness to target him in the begining of the season etc). But I'm starting to wonder if Bellicheck sees how productive WW has been, sees how the offense has clicked as a result, and decides to ride WW like in years past?

Brendan Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) I just got Welker in a trade where I moved Mendenhall and B.Lloyd for Welker and Falcons D, I don't need a RB and needed a defense so it seemed fair. Edit - forgot to mention Greg Jennings,Michael Bush, and Mikel Leshoure are all players I'd love to trade. I'm looking for a healthy WR but I'm not pressed on moving any of these guys just think they would be who I try to sell high.

Slugs3511 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Battle, I 'd sell him right now......Ryan Matthews cannot sit on that bench....I know he may not be considered the starter, but Battle? Am I missing something here...? Maybe that good for us Gates owners...LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whiskey Pimp Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'd love to sell Battle, but are you guys seriously expecting someone to offer you something for him? I'm pretty sure all owners expect Mathews to be the guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTSuper7 Posted October 5, 2012 Author Share Posted October 5, 2012 I think Bowe is a hold also Care to expand? A comment like this tells me you expect him to maintain or nearly maintain his current production. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby's Hubby Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Thinking Ridley could be a good sell right now, especially if I could land a Jordy Nelson type ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Oddly enough, I had the opposite problem a few weeks back trying to swing what I thought was a reasonably fair trade - a GM wanted to upgrade his QB situation in a dynasty league, and my team sucks so I figure the more YOUNG players I have, the better - so I was selling Brady, M Turner, and K Britt (all of whom were struggling/injured) for Locker and McFadden, both of who had good games. SHOT DOWN, which worked out for me because the next game Brady and Turner were HUGE while Locker got injured and DMC struggled. Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don't make. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosGatosEnFuegos Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Tried to get DMC for Bowe. Got turned down. Traded White for AP instead yesterday morning. Then Amendola went down. In less than 12 hours, starting WRs went from White Bowe Amendola / VJax to Bowe VJax / Simpson / Avery Taking some solace in RB/Flex starters now being AP, JCharles, McGahee, but still displeased.

Mr. Retail Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Care to expand? A comment like this tells me you expect him to maintain or nearly maintain his current production. The Chiefs will be down most games and Bowe is getting plenty of targets. People think Cassel is going to get benched but can you really see Brady Quinn taking over? I believe whomever is back there is going to force it to Bowe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White lightning Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Just traded Welker and Ridley for Roddy in a 3WR PPR league. I'm just happy to move him before Hernandez comes back. I dont know if Belicheck will continue to yank Welker in 2TE sets but I didn't feel like waiting to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
