ashmouth Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I have been offered Clinton Portis and Fred Jackson for Marshawn Lynch and Jamaal Charles. Portis is on a bye this week so I'd be giving up a week's worth of Lynch points but my other backs are J. Lewis, Kevin Smith, Torain, and Deuce and I need to start 2 RB's so I should be able to cobble together a decent lineup this week from these other guys. Based on this info, would you pull the trigger on this deal? Standard scoring league (6 per TD, 1 per 10 yds rush/rec) no PPR. Thanks in advance for your responses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance for your responses Portis is a top-5 back - you do this deal for sure. (I don't understand why he'd give up Lynch's handcuff in the deal) Charles had a nice week - but LJ is going to get his when he returns, and Charles will be back to borderline flex option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works out well for him tho since he was gonna start Jackson and Mewelde Moore this week with Portis, LJ and A. Green on the bench. Now he's got two quality starters this week in Charles and Lynch and either a starter in Charles going forward or LJ's handcuff depending on what heppens in KC. In addition, he also happens to be playing the top team in my division so I have added incentive to do the deal Edited November 7, 2008 by ashmouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
