I have L. McCoy, M. Turner, L.T., R. Bush + L. Blount

QB is Big Ben after I traded away Brees few weeks ago in order to get Jennings/ Turner.

WR's are Megatron (aka C. Johnson), G. Jennings, M. Williams (SEA)

Should my first priority be to trade one of my RB's for A) improved QB or B) more WR depth?

Ben had one bad game... Chill.

I'd try to get some more WR depth. Your RB are stacked! Nice job.

thanks, trust me I believe in Big Ben otherwise I would not have made that Breesus for more RB & WR depth trade few weeks ago.

I will probably work a trade tomorrow after the waiver wire moves are completed... May try to focus in on week 13-16 WR's that have bit easier D's they are going against just in case I make playoffs

what's your record?

LT might be a sell high

you can pitch the "GREAT" match-ups weeks 9-12

but after he faces the top rushing DEFs

You should be able to sell pretty easily and get enormous value for him if you decide to take on risks like Djax/Collie/Schaub+ Best/knoshon

Yeah one more top WR and you'd have a pretty nice starting lineup from this point on.

thanks Kashonly & BigSaint, good feedback

have gone on a 5-game win streak so right now we are 6-2.

I really like that LT idea/ trade pitch.

Other key starters are A. Gates + JETS D
(+ Rackers the Texans Kicker)

I am gonna maybe after week 10 bye for Gates + Jennings consider dropping A. Hernandez/ M. Williams (SEA) and building up WR waiver wire depth like Meachum or another filler

speaking of...I play Breesus this week and I know with my recent trade of Drew that he is going to go off for like 5+ TD's just to teach me a lesson

when I look at trade partners I always look to the week I play them and try to grab a good match-up and leave them with a bye that week or facing a good DEF.

I call it manufacturing wins.

I beat a guy by 100 this week

our trade Fri, Oct 1

quote:
KASH traded Peyton Hillis, Cle RB to EZ
KASH traded Ahmad Bradshaw, NYG RB to EZ
KASH traded DeSean Jackson, Phi WR to EZ
KASH traded Malcom Floyd, SD WR to EZ
EZ traded Maurice Jones-Drew, Jac RB to Kashonly
EZ traded Hakeem Nicks, NYG WR to Kashonly
EZ traded Miles Austin, Dal WR to Kashonly
EZ traded Eddie Royal, Den WR to Kashonly

gave him 3 week 8 byes

the other top team in the league is trying to get one of my RB's

that #2 team in league just offered up Mike Williams (WR from TB) for Blount (also TB)...can I do better?

I think of course I can work better trade scenario eventually, but that is kind of tempting since I just picked up Blount few days ago on waiver wire & that quality of receiver seems like a nice bench upgrade to my WR depth.

yeah, I really want to trade with the 2nd to last place team who is desperate for RB's (P.T. hurt, C. Johnson + Burkhalter on bye this week and no other RB's whatsoever until tomorrow morning waiver wire)

and that squad has nice amount of WR's to pick from (B. Marshall, H. Nicks, T.O. + N. Washington)

ok, since few days ago I dropped Reggie Bush + Aaron Hernandez + just went ahead and picked up Sidney Rice as possible clutch WR in December & Vince Young as backup QB(b/c of Randy Moss).

Now I have a problem though cause the 2nd place team in my league stepped up the trade and is making it where I give up LT and in exchange I would get Mike Williams (TB) + Matt Ryan...

What is best thing to do in my scenario?? Any ideas?
