robert terni Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I just proposed MARION BARBER AND BIG BEN FOR LEINART AND LAMONT JORDAN. WHats ur thoughts? this league is a PPR league. Heres my team QB- Young Roethlisberger RB- Addai Westbrook jamal lewis marion barber brandon jackson WR- Steve Smith Boldin Branch Braylon Edwards Curtis TE- Winslow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLGRAF Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 I wouldn't do it, because you will drive yourself nuts, deciding whom to start between Young and Leinart every week. Big Ben is an ideal backup fantasy QB, because he usually won't hurt you, but, he also is not enticing enough to start ahead of a legit FFL starter during a normal week, and Young is a legit FFL starter.

detlef Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if Big Ben outperforms Young this year. All that said. You have a good team. You waited on QB but got great RBs and very good WRs because of it. That's how it goes. Let your team play. If Barber or Lewis emerges and neither Ben or Young do much, you can always move one of them for a better QB. Either that or some undrafted guy goes off at QB and you grab him. By the looks of your team, you are either in a small league (which means there should be plenty of talent on the waiver wire) or you're by far the best team in a large league. Actually, considering that you have 3 guys that would go in the first two rounds of a 8 team league, both of those might be true. Stand pat.

He offered me leinart and roy williams for boldin and big ben......WHATCHA THINK Why are you wasting time asking us???? That is an upgrade for you at both positions!!! So what if Boldin ends up going off. That will mean Leinart is as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asskickas Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 ok he said no anyways but i guess he really wants BOLDIN!!! He offered me leinart and roy williams for boldin and big ben......WHATCHA THINK The new coaches are run 1st in AZ. Roy should have more 1 on 1 opps with Calvin demanding attention along with Furrey. If the AZ D can't get it together Leinart will easily post better #s than Big Ben who will spend most of his time handing the ball to Willie Parker since the Pitt D is top 10.

Though I think both of us like this trade, I do find it odd that you used "new coaches are run 1st in AZ" as a knock on Boldin but not on Leinart.

dirtdickens Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Make the trade. Bolden will not have a strong fantasy year as the new "Steeler Offense" is implemented. When is the last time you wanted the steelers #2 WR? Never. I agree that if Bolden does have a good game, Leinart is having an even better one b/c he is hitting Fitzgerald and Bolden. Also, Williams is gonna go crazy in the form of Torry Holt in that offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
