SGMONEY20 Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 My team is listed below. Should I offer Rudi and LJ Smith for Joe Horn and R. McMichael? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Furley Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 I would not make the trade. Rudi is awesome and LJ Smith may see more touches with TO goofing around. Joe Horn is solid, but isn't McMichael at risk for a suspension for beating his wife or something? Try and trade Duckett and see if that works...highly doubt it, but who knows.

darin3 Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Sure, why not. Upgrade at WR and slight upgrade at TE. Not sold on L.J. Smith just yet... and McMichael is always solid. I do, however, agree w/ Ralph -- try pawning Duckett off first... Rudi's a first-rate RB (not first tier, but solid nonetheless) and you might be able to get more than Horn for him.

Roo Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 No way I would make that offer. LJ Smith could be a solid sleeper TE (watch the TO situation). And Rudi is far more valuable than Horn. I understand the idea here, because you are stacked at RB, but you can get more. Plus Lelie has serious upside. If you are going to pawn Rudi, get a serious stud at a lesser position. Go get Gates, or CJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zooty Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 No way. Hold onto Rudi as insurance at RB and he will probably be very productive this year. Much better than Duckett. LJ could be huge depending how all the TO stuff works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you guys are talking about Duckett like he's the starter but did I miss something? Because isn't Warrick Dunn still the starter in ATL?

Because isn't Warrick Dunn still the starter in ATL? 921782[/snapback] Duckett will always have value 'cuz a) Dunn is an injury waiting to happen and b ) Duckett gets those short-yardage carries (which he could easily break) and goal-line carries... TDs are 6 points, yeah? I always like having a guy with hugh upside like Duckett. Put Shelton on that list, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roo Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 The bottom line is Rudi is an early-mid 2nd round pick, who some would argue could serve as a team's #1 RB. To give him up, you should be getting way more than Horn in return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
