ROYALWITCHEESE Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 I have Moss and Porter and am trying to rid myself of Porter in a dynasty league. I want to try and get Andre Johnson. I have the 3rd pick in each round (12 teams) in the rookie draft next week and am looking at Arrington #1. We start 1-2 RB and 2-4 WR. Here is my roster: Brooks, Aaron NOS QB - 10 Harrington, Joey DET QB - 3 Volek, Billy TEN QB - 10 Gus Frerotte Buckhalter, Correll PHI RB - 6 Chatman, Jesse SDC RB - 10 Droughns, Reuben CLE RB - 4 Duckett, T.J. ATL RB - 8 Fisher, Tony GBP RB - 6 James, Edgerrin IND RB - 8 McAllister, Deuce NOS RB - 10 Morris, Maurice SEA RB - 8 Rhodes, Dominic IND RB - 8 Bennett, Drew TEN WR - 10 Jackson, Darrell SEA WR - 8 Lewis, Greg PHI WR - 6 McDonald, Shaun STL WR - 9 Moss, Randy OAK WR - 5 Porter, Jerry OAK WR - 5 Watts, Darius DEN WR LJ Smith TE He has no first round pick and here is his roster: Carr, David HOU QB - 3 Green, Trent KCC QB - 5 Griese, Brian TBB QB - 7 Henson, Drew DAL QB - 9 Bell, Tatum DEN RB - 9 Davenport, Najeh GBP RB - 6 Gordon, Lamar MIA RB - 4 Griffin, Quentin DEN RB - 9 Henry, Travis BUF RB - 9 Hicks, Maurice SFO RB - 6 McGahee, Willis BUF RB - 9 Minor, Travis MIA RB - 4 Morris, Sammy MIA RB - 4 Chambers, Chris MIA WR - 4 Jenkins, Michael ATL WR - 8 Johnson, Andre HOU WR - 3 Johnson, Chad CIN WR - 10 Moss, Santana WAS WR - 3 Parker, Samie KCC WR - 5 Woods, Rashaun SFO WR - 6 Gates, Antonio SDC TE So what do you guys think I should offer with Porter to get Johnson (aside from giving up my first rounder)?

NAUgrad Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 So what do you guys think I should offer with Porter to get Johnson (aside from giving up my first rounder)? 827389[/snapback] Start small and see if he bites with a Porter for Andre Johnson straight up deal. If he says no, then ask him if he'd be interested if you threw in a later round pick. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Agree w/ previous poster. He may be growing tired w/ waiting for Johnson to explode. He might take Porter straight-up. If not, Porter and your 3rd rounder would probably be fair. As an aside, you're taking Arrington at #3 over Benson? Assuming Brown & Williams go 1, 2... I would be hard-pressed not to take Benson third. Arrington's not a terrible choice, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Arrington will probably start from day one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadillac will most likely be the BEST RB out of this rookie class... if this is a dynasty league, and Williams falls to you at #3, you should be jumping for joy in taking him. He WILL start. He will be nothing short of Marshall Faulk (in his hey-day) in a year or 2. Mark it down. You'll be making a MAJOR mistake if you take Arrington over Cadillac.

Williams is good, but Arrington is has quicker feet. I just don't like Cadillac's syle of play for the NFL--he's too small too run over people like he did in college.

Swampnuts Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Think about it dude! You're in a dynasty league. Take the sure thing and land either Benson or Caddy with that #3 pick. If you want Arrington trade that pick down for some value later on, or trade the pick straight up for Johnson. I'd trade a wideout to take one of the big 3 rookie backs in a dynasty. I'd be laughing at you as I accepted that trade. You've got the chance to land a franchise back in a rookie draft though. That doesn't happen often.
