Owner has approached me and asked who I want for Gates.

 

Non-PPR league, 14 teams 1 qb, 2 rb, 2 wr, 1 te, 1 flex, pk, dt

 

My team:

QB Aaron Rodgers (GB - QB)

WR Roddy White (Atl - WR)

WR Brandon Marshall (Mia - WR)

RB Brandon Jacobs (NYG - RB)

RB Joseph Addai (Ind - RB)

TE Antonio Gates (SD - TE)

W/R Julio Jones (Atl - WR)

K Ryan Longwell (Min - K)

DEF St. Louis (StL - DEF)

 

 

Bench

 

RB Daniel Thomas (Mia - RB)

 

WR Bernard Berrian (Min - WR)

 

RB Toby Gerhart (Min - RB)

 

WR Nate Burleson (Det - WR)

 

QB Chad Henne (Mia - QB)

 

 

Other team:

QB Josh Freeman (TB - QB)

WR Mike Williams (TB - WR)

WR Jeremy Maclin (Phi - WR)

RB Matt Forte (Chi - RB)

RB Peyton Hillis (Cle - RB)

TE Kellen Winslow (TB - TE)

W/R Cedric Benson (Cin - RB)

K Jay Feely (Ari - K)

DEF Tampa Bay (TB - DEF)

 

 

Bench

 

WR Malcom Floyd (SD - WR)

 

WR Mike Williams (Sea - WR)

 

QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (Buf - QB)

 

WR Jacoby Ford (Oak - WR)

 

RB Ricky Williams (Bal - RB)

 

 

I was thinking Forte and Winslow for Gates and (berrian or burleson). Thoughts or other suggestions as he really wants gates?

 

TE free agents still available:

Visanthe Shiancoe (Min - TE)

Benjamin Watson (Cle - TE)

Brent Celek (Phi - TE)

Tony Moeaki (KC - TE)IR

Heath Miller (Pit - TE)

 

Thanks in advance for the help.

You definitely need to upgrade at RB. I'd try for Hillis straight up.

 

Also, the free agent TEs you listed....are those the best available? If nobody has Jimmy Graham (NO) or Lance Kendricks (STL), I'd grab one of those guys. In STL last yr 7 of the 18 passing TDs went to a TE, and I think something like 25-30% of Brees' passes last year went to a TE. Both guys are in great situations to perform well. Good luck.

Totally get Peyton Hillis. Especially in a non-ppr league.

 

As far as TE's are concerned. Donovan McNabb usually targets his TE a lot during the year. I would definitely take him. As well, Celek has been working a lot with Michael Vick, and Vick has said that he wants to get Celek in the mix a lot more than he did last year. Either of them would be a downgrade, but if you can pick up a runningback such as Hillis, I would take it.

Forte/Winslow for Gates/any one of your RB's. He is asking for this trade, but you need it more than he does. If he doesn't want to give up Forte (who will be miles better than Hillis this year, by the way), I would still make the trade with Hillis.
