theeohiostate Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I have tried trading him straight up for virtually EVERY RB in the league and no one wants to touch him? That just SOUNDS crazy! Two weeks ago i traded away Rudi Johnson and Droughns to get him, now the guy won't give either one for him back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh 0ne Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I'd be looking to trade for him right now, not trade him away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonestar39 Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I would not be trading him. Too much upside and obviously under valued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borge007 Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 You guys are nuts. Green will be fine. "Tooooooooooo early to panic", he said, as an owner of Ahman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeohiostate Posted October 19, 2004 Author Share Posted October 19, 2004 I'd be looking to trade for him right now, not trade him away. 496281[/snapback] That's what i thought two weeks ago.....figured he would bounce right back, hadn't seen him play yet this year.....now.......watched his last game, doesn't look healthy, lost a step or TWO, losing carries to Fish and Dav., and he's been playing with a semi torn/strained achilles' tendon. This could linger on and possible cause him to sit out an extended amount of time....if i could i would unload him....can't......no on wants him.

Ursa Majoris Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I have Bulger and i wouldn't trade myself for him 496283[/snapback] Well, I have diddly at QB and am loaded with RBs, so I can afford it. It's just that Ahman's stock is so low at this point that it's difficult to get anyone to bite. That said, I think he'll get better if the coaches can be convinced he isn't going to fumble it away every five minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

URLACHERisGOD Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I've proposed Droughns straight up for Green. I would be totally stoked if the other owner accepted! Doubt he will but, I can always hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would all but guarantee that he outperforms Droughns for the rest of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilthorp Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 He's not worthless...that's a ridiculous question. He gets the start every week and is due for another 100+ 2 TD week soon. Even with his slow start, he's still a top 15 back, and will be back in the top 8 by the end of the year IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soopanuts Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 If only somebody could have predicted this... 496328[/snapback] In that post, first you say that he'll probably "rock" this season and then you say you have a bad feeling for "no good reason whatsoever".

Hugh 0ne Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 ..........wager on that 496335[/snapback] In a heart beat. I do have a few other wagers in the way, so we'd have to come up with a time frame. I bet Caveman_Nick that C. Brown will outproduce C. Dillon over the entire season. That bet starts after the regular season and goes to the Super Bowl, I think. Of course I'll win that one so theoretically it won't interfere. So we could make the bet, and make it for the month of February after the Super Bowl. Interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bold prediction...yeah right. Is your name John Kerry? 496345[/snapback] But you see, it is for no good reason. Can you explain why he sucks this season? I had a feeling that told me to stay the heck away from the guy even though he was ranked in the top 3 players this Pre-Season. I didn't say the same thing about a bunch of other guys now did I? Sure I didn't come out and say, he will for sure stink and here is why... but it's still an accurate prognostication. :pattingselfontheback: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever scores more based on the huddle's perfect scoring system, found here: http://www.thehuddle.com/classics/03phs.php. Injuries, suspensions, benchings, nothing at all voids this deal. We on?
