Drafted Romo as my starter and Brady as the backup (obviously before suspension was overturned).

Although Brady will probably end up with more points at the end of the season, I feel like romo will be more consistent. I think I'd rather have 15-18 ppg almost locked in from the qb position than deal with Brady's 23 points one week and 10 points the next.

Would you stream qbs in this case depending on matchup, or just roll with one and trade the other?

I would look to trade one. Others might disagree but I would keep Brady.

That a good combo. Keep both, play matchups.

I'm in the same situation as OP, and I've been trying to get something for either one of them (unsuccessfully). The thing is, what is either one of them worth in a trade? A WR3? In that case, I'd rather just keep them both.

I'd stick with romo. Has a great line and no rbs to hand to.

Someone will trade for brady

never works out

id rather add a player that can contribute, especially if you need 2 RB, 2 WR, and a FLEX

Depends what is roster looks like I guess. If there is a real need then yeah, he could get a RB2/WR2 in the right situation.

I agree. Package a player with your QB and upgrade a position of need...or just upgrade. Someone wants a top flight QB

Tried that. Failed.

Who would you guys think is a decent WR to get in a 1 for 1 trade for Romo/Brady? The four WRs drafted around Romo in my league (2 on either side) were Maclin, Wallace, Agholor, and Roddy White. I don't think any of those guys would add much to my team.

I've tried adding Anquan Boldin to Brady/Romo and going for someone like Mike Evans or TY Hilton, but no luck.

who is on your roster?

Boldin isn't a good trade piece IMO to get warrant a good return. He is well past his prime. He can still produce but it is a lot more unpredictable.

I mean, he was the #22 WR in non-PPR leagues last year. I'm trying to trade for a WR that's projected around WR12-15. So I think Brady/Romo + Boldin is a decent offer.

What's your entire WR corp?

I like Maclin this year. Him, Kelce, and Jamaal are going to go off IMO. Agolohor is less of a sure thing but a great prospective WR2 (Matthews produced in that position last year).
