NewMexicoLobo Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 (edited) Would you make this trade? I give up Willis McGahee and James Davis for Marshawn Lynch and Brandon Jackson (RB Green Bay). I'm in a 12-team basic scoring redraft league (2-point bonus for 100 yards receiving and/or rushing and/or combination). Currently two best running backs are Brandon Jacobs and Willie Parker. If this deal happens it enables my trading partner to handcuff Ray Rice and Jamal Lewis; it gives me a more solid #2 RB (Lynch) to go along with my #1 RB Jacobs (I also have Bradshaw) but of course I won't have Lynch for first three games (suspension) and week 9 (bye week). Plus I lose the potential of Davis. Can I survive those weeks with Parker and/or starting both Jacobs and Bradshaw? Prior to this offer I was strongly considering starting McGahee over Parker. Thanks! Edited September 8, 2009 by NewMexicoLobo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youre Going Down Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 For what I have been reading I think Parker should get a lot of carries. I think I would do the trade because I think Lynch will still have more value than Davis as time goes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Smales Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 I like the move of getting a starter in Lynch for two guys with potential. A bird in the hand ... However, he is getting a TON of insurance by getting two handcuffs that he should have drafted. Jackson has a high ankle sprain if my memory serves me right so I would try to get something better to go along with Lynch. How about a sleeper WR off his roster instead, I don't think that would be an unreasonable counter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
