Who would get the better of this deal:

Le'veon Bell and Randall Cobb for Matt Forte and Calvin Johnson

At first glance it's a no go because Le'veon is Le'veon, but Cobb has been underperforming and Forte is about as reliable as a RB1 as you can get.

I think Cobb gets it going and Bell is the best Fantasy PPR back there is..but its not a terrible trade at all.

Can you post rosters? On the surface, I'm really wondering what the point of this trade would be.

It's actually pretty even, IMO. Cobb has been disappointing lately and Calvin has been up and down for a while. So they are about even in my book with maybe a slight bump to Cobb for me.

Bell is the best RB there is, especially in PPR, but Forte is having a good year and is right there with him. I'd give the edge to Bell.

I'd rather have the Bell/Cobb side of this trade.

Is this PPR or standard? Whichever one it is could be a big difference.

I have Bell and Cobb and I would not make this trade.

It's PPR.

My team is:
QBs; Peyton and whoever I can get off waivers so I can keep Peyton on the bench,
RBs: Bell, Ivory, Woodhead, Crowell
WRs: Cobb, Maclin, Crabtree, Marvin Jones, Kendall Wright, Decker
TEs: Kelce

He just added Frank Gore to the trade. So Frank Gore, Forte, and Calvin for Bell and Cobb.

I'm still feeling leaning heavily towards no. That sound about right?

You start 2 RB's?

You need WR help. Cobb and CJ are pretty much a wash. You could make the trade, then try to flip a RB and one your secondary WR's for another #1 WR

An ideal lineup with no byes would Bell, Ivory, Maclin, Cobb and Woodhead at flex.
