Yes it would. If you wanted a Qb and would trade the same players to get either. would you trade for cutler or brees?

Exactly.

While I'm sure it's ideal. We're 2 weeks into the season.

No, because Cutler is currently doing much better than Brees.
I figured he would want Cutler over Brees.
Have only had one offer for Brees, and it was Brees and Cooks for Geno Smith, Wright, and Lamar Miller before the Knowshon injury.

Yeah, I understand that its only 2 weeks in.
But in those 2 weeks with his 11 starters, he has gotten 163 points.
In those 2 weeks, Cutler and Stafford along have combined for 84 points.

Had he made the trade, he would be at 209 points and would have won last weekend.

I guess giving up a top 5 fantasy qb and te still isn't good enough for a wr?
I am not sure what else I can offer to make the trade fair.

Yeah, I sorta thought so to when I drafted him.


But I guess when you have Marshall, Jeffery, and Bennett to throw to with Forte running and take pressure off you, you can only do so bad.

It's definitely not being a dick.. People pick up players all the time that they don't need so they can trade.

But now you are saying he's a family friend and your hockey coach .... Sounds like you feel bad because it's on a personal level

You are giving up top 5-at-the-moment qb and te for proven top 5 WR. Julio is a tier 1 WR, cutler not a tier 1 qb. Gates used to dominate but the verdict is still out this season.

If you really think it would benefit him then show him the numbers.

Exactly this.
But at the same time, we always pick on each other so maybe he will laugh about it.


Either way, I will probably let Cousins go to him for some depth on my fantasy team at this point, just because I don't need 3 top 10 qbs, but even more so don't need another qb on top of that.

Following you around? I frequent the MSB and Fantasy Board regularly. We're bound to cross paths.

It's cute you think you have an internet admirer, though.

Just got a message from the League Manager. He told me that he had thought he locked Cousins so that way no one could pick him up in free agency and that way he could just hand it to the guy who has RG3. Told me that I have to drop Cousins or one of my qbs so he can give them to the other guy.

No. It's fantasy/strategy.

What the frick is this? So whenever a player goes down you're automatically allowed to have their back up? In that case, I want whoever gets the most touches in the Miami backfield because Moreno is out. I'd quit the league if this is a rule. That's fricking pathetic

I know.
I had Julio Jones last year. I didn't get to have Roddy White or Harry Douglas handed to me.
