BearBroncos Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I would normally say no to this trade but Portis will be playing against the number 1 rush defense this week. Would you cut the deal just to win in that week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the outlaw Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Assuming this is a serious question, my advice would be to NEVER make a deal for a 1 week result (unless a win in that one week means the difference between you making the playoffs, or not - however, I know Week 5 is not that week - plus most leagues have a trade deadline sufficiently in advance of the playoffs, so you should never be in a position where you would have to make a trade decision under those circumstances)...the waiver wire is for making 1 week decisions where you drop a marginal player to help your team in a 1 week match-up situation... Anyway, the bottom line is, I would not do the deal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ten Yard Guard Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Seconded, there's no way you do that deal unless it's a keeper league and you need less expensive assets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This place is a good mental check Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
