NYCDOG Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Hey guys, need some help here. My #2RBs are currently TJones, White and JJones, none of which inspire much confidence down the stretch. I would like to trade for Slaton to shore up the stable and have Favre as a backup to Cutler. What do you think of me offering Favre for Slaton? Too early to buy into Slaton? The favorable thing for me is that Favre is on bye this week and can't diminish his value. Slaton is playing the Colts and will probably put up some solid numbers. Should I pre-empt the week and offer the trade now, or wait to see another week of Slaton? The guy I'm trying to trade with is very weak at QB. Thoughts? Thanks in advance.

stduke Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'd do it..I really like Slaton and you have a great starting QB. Please see mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfrankparnell Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'd do it..I really like Slaton and you have a great starting QB. Please see mine. Slaton's another guy who gets points receiving even when he doesn't do the job running. I wish I drafted him (I went with Ahman Green instead with my last pick... ugh) You don't need Favre - but you've gotta pick up a QB to fill in for Cutler in two weeks (same here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYCDOG Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Good Lord, Brett is flying high, aim for a better RB with Farve That's just the point, he IS flying high but will probably settle into mediocrity down the stretch. I think there are doubts by many as to whether Favre will continue to be even a third that productive on a regular basis. The other problem is that given the number of marquis QBs and the new younger studs that have emerged this year, only one (maybe 2) teams in my league even need an upgrade at QB. His other RBs (aside from Gore) are MJD, Forte and Parker. MJD shares carries and Parker is hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReturnToSender Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 By that I mean his trade value is much better than just Slanton right now, get a better back with him this week, work the phones, you can get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
