12 team league. No ppr

Fred Jackson is out so that only leaves me with ray rice as a starter (the other two I have are handcuffs for injury prone rbs).

Nobody worth a damn to pick up so I gotta make a trade. I was offered shonne green. I really dont want him but I have no other options.

He needs a wr.......who should I trade out of these three.
Percey Harvin
Antonio Brown
Demaryius Thomas

My other wr is Julio Jones but it would take one hellofa trade to let him go.

I'd keep Thomas and use one of the other two.....put both teams on here and maybe we could assist more.

Since you need a running back badly, you offer Brown for Green. Not really much to think about.

I was thinking brown or harvin. Brown had a great pre season and has a better qb throwing him the ball. But Harvin is the vikings best reciever and he rushes the ball a few times a game

I would trade with someone else, seriously. All 4 of your WRs are WR1s. Brown will outperform Wallace again this year and PIT has no running game + he returns kicks.

You should be able to pick the RB you wanted in trade for one of those WRs

Granted you lose in value, but you're not always going to win every trade. It provides what you need and you're dealing from a surplus. Unless you're giving up Julio or Green, chances are you are not going to be able to land a RB1. I'm a big fan of Brown, but I think Harvin carries more value... so for me, that's the player I'd offer first.

You could go try going after a Doug Martin, someone with more upside than Greene, but if that player doesn't have a surplus in backs... he'd want to keep is back over a WR.

The same guy has Doug Martin. Ive been trying to talk him into it but he wont go for it. He also has adrien peterson and mcfadden.

Better backs you maybe able to pull off a trade for would be Gore or Bradshaw. Maybe.

Ridley/BGE could also be better options than Greene. I don't know how your settings are as for as lineup locks, but you should have plenty of time exhausting other avenues before you settle for Greene if you chose to do that deal... or the Bush deal.

I agree.......rb is pretty thin this year. These are the only two teams that have one to spare
