gijunky Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I was recently offered the following trade for the upcoming draft: I give Carson Palmer, pick 2.08 and pick 4.08 for Eli Manning, pick 1.08 and pick 4.01 I currently have the 1.05 pick as well. League scoring is performance based. League is Keeper league, holding 1 Player from each position from the previous year. Palmer (last year) outscored Manning 218 to 170 for the year. Start 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1PK, and 1DEF. Other notable players on my roster were Kevin Jones, Brian Westbrook, Andre Johnson, Reggie Wayne, and others. Palmer was the stud for my team last year, so I am loath to give him up. However, with him coming back from the injury this year, I thought that it might be a good idea to move him if the right offer came along. Picking up the 1.08 pick would allow me to draft the best available RB at 1.05 and then have the opportunity for an Anquan Boldin or Chambers at 1.08 (or another RB). I would not pick again until 3.05. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I would not do it straight up, but I'd would do it with the extra first rounder. Take it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jake_the_builder Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Who knows how Palmer will be with his knee and Eli will be a top QB for years to come like his brother, plus you get to move up in the 4th and move from the 2nd to the 1st, this deal should already be in the books as a steal.

gijunky Posted June 11, 2006 Author Share Posted June 11, 2006 Yeah, I am hoping that the improvement (offensively) of the other teams in the NFC east (well, at least Dallas and Washington) will mean higher scoring in those games, as well as against the Eagles. Giving up on Palmer wasn't easy, but I can see him struggling (a little) to get back into the swing of things. Hopefully it won't come back to bite me in the a$$.
