Big Country Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 you're not going to do better than Driver in the draft. As mentioned in several of your other posts, shoring up your 3rd WR spot is key for this team, and this trade accomplishes that. RBs are thin in the draft so you won't be missing out there, there isn't a better WR available, you are set at TE and QBs are deep. I think doing this trade will set you up well for this season... my question is this though... have keepers been set so you can keep Driver plus the 8 you have listed, or would you end up having to cut one of them in order to keep Driver?

gahs7 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 or i can add a rookie rb that falls to 12 and there will be plenty of recievers in the 3rd and 4th round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good advice, and the question is very important, although losing Rackers for Driver is an easy decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you could draft Leinhart, but even so I would still trade that pick for Driver. However, if you were in the top 4 I would advise not to trade it as you could get someone like Addai. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gahs7 Posted June 14, 2006 Author Share Posted June 14, 2006 but guys like dangelo Williams > L.White > L.Maroney or some of those receivers, remember this is a keeper league, there will be some good receiver in the 3rd round, drafts always bring surprises and its good to hold a pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 but guys like dangelo Williams > L.White > L.Maroney or some of those receivers, remember this is a keeper league, there will be some good receiver in the 3rd round, drafts always bring surprises and its good to hold a pick those RBS will not fall that far (96 players kept, no decent RBs available), and in most drafts, keeper or non-keeper, Driver is being taken ahead of any of the rookie RBs that could remotely have a chance of falling to you. You will not find a talent as good and as solid (read, low risk compared to the WRs and rookie RBs) as Driver. You would be entering the season with LT, Westbrook, Wayne, Driver, Burress and Gates as your core. That is a sick team. You have to play for this year sometimes, and this is the perfect example of making that move for the now. Heck, your keepers aren't that old either, so it is a good keeper core too. It seems you are way overvaluing the keeper aspect of the league. It is only 8 players, and barring injury or setback to the incumbent, none of the rookie RBs are in prime situations to have an explosive year, meaning that they become high risk keepers.

loyalboyd Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Looks worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoPackGo Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I would totally go for this. I think Donold will puttin up pro bowl seasons within these next couple of years. Last year he had a great season and he wasn't even prepared to play number 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
