Only irrational Giant's fans!

 

is it not true? I probably wouldn't take Eli myself at this point. But I'm sure there are some that will. the next four weeks hes got GB, DAL, WAS, and SD. If he suddenly finds his rhythm, and he certainly has the talent to help him out at WR, he could be dangerous - it's around this point in the season he goes on a tear.

 

2011 week 11-13:

GB: 249 yards, 3 TD, 0 INT

WAS: 280 Yards 1 TD, 0 INt

NO: 259, 4 TD, 2 INT

61 fantasy points

 

2012 week 11-13

NO: 406 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

GB: 347 yards, 3 TD, 1 INT

Dal: 400 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

 

I don't think it is irrational at all to think that Eli may break his slump this week against a team he is averaging 300+ and 3 tds against in the last three years. Followed by a Dallas team that he loves to dominate. even this year, the worst of his career, he went 450 and 4 TD against Dallas.

 

This year is a little different as his confidence seems shaken and he would be too much risk for me.

Eli has turned it on the last few years, but he was never this bad prior to "turning it on". And your number's you listed aren't accurate. Eli through weeks 12-14 (bye week 11) in 2012: He played Green Bay, Washington & New Orleans and totaled 58 of 98 (59%), for 788 yards, 8TD & 2INT. That's pretty good, but numebrs that reflect what he did throughout the regular season, not just the end (exception being the higher td-int rate). In 2011 weeks 11-13: He played Philly, New Orleans and Packers and totaled 74 of 122 (60%) for 1017 yards, 6TD & 3INT. Good numbers, but not far off from what he did the rest of the season. If you average things out over 16 games those games don't stand out that much. I'm not a saying you can't get someone to bite on him, but I wouldn't waste getting him on my team based off previous years performance down the stretch. Someone who does make a trade based on something like that would have to be a fan of his or the Giants and is then just grasping for straws because they want him to do well rather than making a rationale decision.

My fault on weeks 11-13; I wasn't thinking about the bye weeks. stats are from weeks 12-14

That was my original point was that if you have a few giants fans in your league they may bite on this notion I pointed out above. Plus he has an awesome schedule and if he reverted to his normal self he could well be a top 5 QB for the next 4 weeks. I wouldn't bet on him doing that but some one else might. Hense why I'm stating he should try to move him - there is no reason to keep 3 QBs on your team. If OP was to move one of them I would try to move Eli first.

 

OP also has Dalton who he could move instead of Eli, which I also stated, and he may be able to get something decent in return for him.
