Just made this trade in one of my leagues (PPR)
I got:
Eli Manning and Vernon Davis

I traded:
LeSean McCoy and Kyle Rudolph

I then proceeded to trade Matt Schaub and Steve Smith for Reggie Bush

My team next week will look like this:
QB-Eli Manning
RB-Reggie Bush
RB-Marshawn Lynch
WR-Andre Johnson
WR-Steve Johnson
WR-Mike Williams
TE-Vernon Davis
K-Stephen Gostkowski
D/ST-Atlanta

Some of my key backups will be:
Josh Freeman
Deangelo Williams
Donald Brown (when coming back from injury)
Rashard Mendenhall (when coming back from injury)
Jermichael Finley
Kevin Ogletree

I realize I am now really thin at WR so maybe will consider trading Brown or Mendenhall for a WR

Overall I think I got a good deal and improved my team but some people say I got screwed. Just looking for some opinions

Sorry if Long!

Well I like the second trade period. I didn't like the first trade at first glance....but Eli is an upgrade that you needed at QB imo.

yea trading McCoy hurt a lot seeing as he was my first round draft pick but I figured once my other backs get healthy I will have plenty of depth to help offset his loss...that and with the Eagles offense he hasnt been as good as i thought he would be anyway

i don't like trading rbs for qbs. Rbs win fantasy leagues. Only trade a Qb for a better Qb

A slim upgrade at best.

Are passing TDs worth 4pts or 6pts? If 6, I think you made a pretty solid move adding Eli. Davis is a big upgrade from Rudolph, but Bush is a downgrade from McCoy even considering the Eagles' struggles. Steve Smith will get in the endzone at some point.

If your league's scoring is friendly to QBs, you come out positive, if not, trade may not have been worth doing.
