I'm currently 5-4, ranked 6th in the league. It has been a very frustrating year but I still have an opportunity to make the playoffs. Here is my team:

QB-Peyton
WR-Dez
WR-Randle
RB-J Hill
RB-B Tate
TE-Bennett
Flex-Decker
Bn-Oliver
Bn-Mathews
Bn-Vereen
Bn-Gordon
Bn-AP

I have an opportunity to receive Calvin, Hillman, Bradshaw and 2015 6th and 7th round picks. In return I have to give up my 2nd and 3rd round picks in 2015 and can pick which 3 players to give up. I am really torn and not sure what to do. What do you guys think?

Well....do you think you could win the whole league with that trade?

I would hate to sacrifice my team next year and not make the playoffs this year.

Exactly why I'm torn.

I have a feeling that if I don't grab these guys one of the teams in front of me are going to and then I'm really SOL.

My schedule is favorable to end season.

Week 10: 2nd place team
Week 11: 10th (last) place team
Week 12: 8th place team
Week 13: 9th place team
Week 14: 5th place team

dude what are you really getting? nobody know what calving is gonna be, because he's not healty and that offense really hasn't done squat.

Bradshaw is a nice surprise but if he doesn't catches passes then he doesn't score.

Hillman has looked good but does he keep that pace up?

so you are looking at 2 boom or bust players and calvin ( I don't know what he is anymore)


I don't think id be mortgaging my 2015 season on those guys. I would not do that trade

good luck

Review your draft from this year. Look at the picks you made in the 2nd an 3rd round and compare them to the picks you made in the the 6th and 7th round.

All signs point to Calvin being 100% again. He's had plenty of time to rest and hasn't pushed it. Detroit is a solid time in the middle of playoff contention and Tate has put up some decent numbers while he's been out. My only concern about Hillman is Montee Ball. How much playing time does he pull away from Hillman when he comes back? Bradshaw is one of Luck's favorite targets, so he's a good RB2.

That's a good way to look at it. Ball is a FA too so I can grab him just in case he overtakes role.

2. Peyton
3. Stacy

6. Vereen
7. Cordarrelle
