cffl2323 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 unless he's very thin at wr with no TE i wouldn't take that trade if i was him, but more importantly are you trying to "buy high"? sell high, buy low man. you're probably a week late on that trade. as a slaton owner i've been holding out for him to produce, and this week was enough to give me a little confidence back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcesWild Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Hahaha, right. yeah, i mean buy low. Whoops, but yeah...he accepted and now its up for a league vote...I hope it doesnt get me in trouble...im still not so sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cffl2323 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 not a horrible trade. you're getting the best player which is always good. and just giving up a bust, one week wonder, and sims-walker is iffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cffl2323 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 oh yeah, and check mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowzerz1111 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 (edited) So basically your starters are Palmer or Hassleback Slaton Turner Steve Smith(car) Colston Celek But your bench is... Felix (could be out for awhile) Robinson (out for year) Ted Ginn Heap You are going to have the worst bench in the league... and Slaton is looking like a bust.. I think you shot yourself in the foot.

wowzerz1111 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Which Steve Smith? Still, either way i think it would be bad for you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AcesWild Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 Steve Smith from Carolina. But yeah, my bench got raped this week...but in the trade i am only really losing one worthwhile bench player, being Sims-walker. And i am really hoping Slaton will turn it around, he showed life this week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slasher Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 i own slaton and would not take that trade. your offer for him is weak. you are being obvious in your low-balling, and there is no way a slaton owner makes that move + drops to make the transaction fly for his roster.

Rice is almost as good, and has played way better than slaton 30+28+26 points on the season for 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
