okiiyama Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I was offered the trade: I give up C. Taylor for S. Smith. Points: 1pt/15yds, 6pts/TD, No PPR, 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1K, 1DEF My Team: Drew Bledsoe, Rex Grossman Clinton Portis (Bye week 8), Willis McGahee(8), Chester Taylor(6), Cedric Benson(7), DeAngelo Williams(9) Anquan Boldin(9), Andre Johnson(5), Javon Walker(4), Matt Jones(6) Tony Gonzalez David Akers Eagles Def His Team: Tom Brady, Phillip Rivers De'Shaun Foster(bye week 9), Rudi Johnson(5), Ladell Betts(8), Brandon Jacobs(4) Plaxico Burress(4), Steve Smith(9), Reggie Williams(6), Bernard Berrian(7) Owen Daniels, Desmond Clark Jay Feely Giants Def Giving up Chester Taylor would leave me with Cedric Benson and DeAngelo Williams to fill in this week, and Portis may still be a bit banged up after week 8. So I don't think S. Smith alone has enough upside to make my roster better. How does that sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle2003 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 The first question you have to ask is how does this better your team. Quick answer is it doesn't until mayber after the bye weeks of your running backs. Even then you have Boldin and Andre Johnson. I would refrain for now and revisit this after this week.

okiiyama Posted October 24, 2006 Author Share Posted October 24, 2006 Well, I declined the original trade where I would get S.Smith for C.Taylor, and now he has offered a new trade to "help" me with my bye week dillema if I were to trade C. Taylor. The new trade is I receive: De'Shaun Foster (I have DeAngelo Williams) Steve Smith I Give up: Chester Taylor So, that does in fact "help" with not having starter options for week 8 at RB, but now I would need to drop a player, and well Matt Jones has done crap so I could drop Matt Jones, but essentially that means this trade is: De'Shaun Foster & Steve Smith for Chester Taylor & Matt Jones. Is this worth it to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle2003 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I would offer up McGahee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gros Membres! Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I would offer up McGahee. Other than the 95 yard run, Taylor's numbers have been pedestrian. His TDs have been nonexistent as well. I would take the Foster/SS trade. Try McGahee. If he doesn't bite I might just do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okiiyama Posted October 24, 2006 Author Share Posted October 24, 2006 Yeah, I countered with McGahee instead of Chester. Thanks for the input thus far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
