smithkt Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 This is a dynasty league with 53 man rosters. I've been offered Lee Evans and a second round pick in next years rookie draft for Darrell Jackson and a fourth round pick. I know the knee jerk reaction is to look at the players only and say I'd be crazy to accept this offer, but being a dynasty league, I'm trying to consider the future here as well. Looking at the players involved: Jackson: 28 years old. Had a lot of questions about that knee though the entire off-season, training camp and right up until week 1. If the early returns mean anything, he seems to be fine for now. The addition of Branch could either mean the ball will get spread around more or Jackson will see less double teams as opposing D's have to respect the Branch. Evans: 25 years old. No injury history yet. Stuck on a team that appears to be playing a very conservative offense with a questionable talent at QB and no real solid options at WR2 to take the double teams away. Talented but in a bad situation. This league awards a ppr for wrs. The starting lineups are formation based: 1. Pro-set: One QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE. 2. Wishbone: One QB, 3 RB, 2 TE. 3. Spread offense: One QB, 1 RB, 4 WR. 4. West coast: One QB, 1 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 WR/TE. My other WRs are: Caldwell, Reche Carter, Drew Engram, Bobby Furrey, Mike Holt, Torry Moss, Randy Toomer, Amani Wilford, Ernest Since I am sure some of you will ask, my RBs are (again, a lot of potential here, but no stand out starters): Benson, Cedric Bush, Reggie Calhoun, Brian Davenport, Najeh Fason, Ciatrick Harrison, Jerome Hicks, Maurice Jacobs, Brandon Jones, Kevin Jones, Thomas Morris, Maurice Any thoughts?

Grits and Shins Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I like the trade if you are willing to give up some production this year for the future. I think it is pretty clear that DJax will be a better producer this year ... but with the coming of Branch, DJax's age and DJax's health I like Evans for future years.

alchico Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I like this trade as it's a look to the future and doesn't really hurt you in the present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
