Trade Eddie Royal for Thomas Jones?

Lineup rules: Instead of the traditional 2RB, 2WR, 1TE starting lineup, for those 5 starting slots, we can start up to 4 WRs, up to 2 RBs and up to 2TEs (for a total of 5). We also get 1 PPR for TEs, 1/5 PPR for WRs and 0 PPR for RBs.

 

I basically have no RBS: Slaton, Fargas and Pierre Thomas.

I am loaded at WR/TE: Moss, A.Johnson, L.Fitzgerald, E.Royal, K.Walter, J.Witten and A.Gates

 

He is strong at RB (but remember can only start 2): J.Jones, T.Jones, D.McFadden, R.Mendenhall, J.Stewart and M.Turner (no studs, but strong nevertheless)

He is not weak at WR either, but has a bad bye week issue with his WRs in week 4 (Burress, R.Wayne and R.Williams all off)

 

So, this trade is not essential for either one of us.

 

I proposed a Royal for Jonathan Stewart trade. He countered by offering me Julius Jones. I said I wasn't at all interested, and he then offered Thomas Jones.

 

Now, I personally don't feel the "juice" from Thomas Jones, but I'm willing to admit that that may just be because Stewart is new and shiny. However, the fact that the Jones couldn't get in the End Zone (at home) with three tries from within the 3 yard line concerns me. But then he is a starting RB and Royal is a #2 WR.

 

I am muddled over this one. Help me find clarity!

okay no eddie royal isn't going to decline.

 

Game one.. it went all to royal due to marshall's absence... Shefler had his looks but dropped them.

 

Game two.. it went all to Marshall b/c it's his first game back and Cutler loves throwing him.

Shefler got the same number of looks.

 

Future Games.. This is the NFL.. teams will adjust to the one sided Marshall attack.. unless Cutler works the ball around.. which he is very comfortable and confident and doing... (shefler's 2 tds, Going to ROYAL for the winning tD AND 2 pt. conversion)
