Krans Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 So one owner in my league is super weak at RB and super strong at WR. He drafted that way and has sort of been handicapped by it throughout the season. My team is pretty balanced right now. He's been trying to get Ryan Torrain for a few weeks now, sent a few different offers. He obviously needs help at RB. He offered Steve Johnson for Torrain but I declined. It doesn't make sense for me when I'm not too strong at RB myself (Moreno and Forte are kinda risky still). So I was thinking what if I offer Torrain for both Calvin Johnson and Greg Jennings, and maybe package in Tony G from my side. It makes him better because he has a ridiculous amount of receivers and will still be strong there while gaining a #1 RB. For me I'd have too many WRs but maybe could package them to pick up a back from someone else. Then again I might just screw myself over. I think it'd be great value but would take a lot of things falling together to work, thoughts? My Team: QB Jon Kitna RB Adrian Peterson, Min RB RB Ryan Torain, Was RB RB/WR Knowshon Moreno, Den RB WR Dwayne Bowe, KC WR WR Brandon Lloyd, Den WR TE Jason Witten, Dal TE DP Jerod Mayo, NE LB DP LaRon Landry, Was S D/ST Rams D/ST, StL D/ST K Ryan Succop, KC K BENCH Matt Ryan, Atl QB, Michael Crabtree, SF WR, Marques Colston, NO, Tony Gonzalez, Atl TE, Matt Forte, Chi RB, Santonio Holmes, NYJ WR, Jay Cutler, Chi QB His Team: QB Schaub RB Justin Forsett RB Danny Woodhead RB/WR Calvin Johnson WR Pierre Garcon WR Kenny Britt TE Mercedes Lewis DEF Titans K Sebastian Janikowski Bench Randy Moss, Greg Jennings, Mike Wallace, Steve Johnson, Jabar Gaffney, Brent Celek, Clinton Portis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Jusat curious what makes you think he would come close to even considering this, even with his need at RB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lac3b Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 You can offer it, but he won't accept. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Favre4ever Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Give him Torrain for Wallace..It's a fair deal and helps you both...And if not Torrain insert Forte or Moreno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krans Posted October 28, 2010 Author Share Posted October 28, 2010 He'd consider it because he gains more overall from the trade. Right now his RBs are producing horribly, by far in the bottom of our league, by upgrading he gets a huge points boost there while he doesn't receive a huge dropoff at WR.

lac3b Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I'd see if he would do Forte for Garcon and Jennings/Johnson. I just don't see him accepting a trade for Calvin when he could get a lot more value than what you're offering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelitto Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 He'd consider it because he gains more overall from the trade. Right now his RBs are producing horribly, by far in the bottom of our league, by upgrading he gets a huge points boost there while he doesn't receive a huge dropoff at WR. even with his great need at RB, If he were to only offer up calvin johnson he could get a lot better than torrain. I am a Redskins fan but there are still tons of questions around this guy. Not to mention he will be facing philly, ten, min, nyg after the bye. He offered you steve johnson for torrain, what makes you think he will give you his best receiver (stud) when he offered you his worst? middle gorund might be someone like wallace, possibly jennings.
