In a 12 team PPR. Yet I have a feeling that I may regret it. Here is the lineup I was starting before the trade:
QB: Foles
RB: AP
RB: Bush
WR: DeSean
WR: Jordy
TE: Jimmy
Flex: Julius Thomas
Bench: Pierre, Harvin, Mike Wallace, Joique, Ivory

AJ averages about 2 more PPG than DeSean in PPR. But if AP or Julius Thomas get hurt, I no longer have Pierre to replace them with. Is 2 more PPG worth the depth loss? I am already the high scorer in the league by 70 points. So there was no real need to make a move. Would you have done it?

ETA: For those not paying attention, Pierre has been very good this year in PPR. Currently the #11 RB. A much better option than anything else on my bench.

Definite upgrade. I don't know why you would play Thomas over Ivory anyway if someone gets hurt

I think you did fine. Joique and Ivory are about equal to Pierre Thomas IMO.

I think I'm a lot higher on Pierre than most. He's flown under the radar but has been very consistent and a great bye week fill in for me this year.

His value will take a hit with Ingram back and Sproles 100% healthy.

This, and they won't be running on anyone like they did on Dallas.

Great trade for you. I did something similar last week: traded away vincent jackson and vernon davis for aj green. I already had Gronk as my TE.

You got a great deal. Don't really see why Thomas would start on your team anyway, so you basically just got a major upgrade at starting WR.
