Is it bad I'm considering this? Too early to abandon the L.T. train?

I feel like L.T. will probably get his shite together in a few weeks, but Romo is going to put points up every single week. Right now I'm 0-2 and need to start making something happen before I get too far behind. It's only a 10 team league with 6 making the postseason.

I really don't see where the problem is. I know L.T. is an annual fantasy beast, but I think the wear and tear has to catch up sometime. Romo lit up the fantasy scoreboard and is off to a blazing start again this year. My quarterbacks are absolute garbage. I have two other decent running backs. It would basically even out.

youd have to get something else. if you got a solid starting 3rd WR or top 5 TE Id maybe consider it being that your QB's suck and your RB's are decent enough. LT is never a player you trade straight up. Try to enhance your lineup majorly. If you can not get starters for LT just hang on to him, he'll pay off. Consider it though. The substantial upgrade in QB is worth at least a look, but you need to get adequate value for the #1 player in the league.

If this is a keeper league, leave the internet right not and kill yourself for considering this.

Yeah...I pretty much know all of this. The game is changing though. Quarterbacks are the fantasy studs of now and the immediate future. L.T. is still L.T. and I know this, but running backs don't appear to be quite as valuable with platoon systems that are being implemented by many nfl teams.

ok man, obviously QBs score a lot of points in fantasy...

but there are plenty who do so! The talent-pool for RBS is much, much thinner in terms of regular point-producing players. It is not about the actual points, but the points compared to other players at the same position. The dropoff for RBS happens much quicker than QBs.

In other words, LT even though he is struggling warrants much more than just a QB - even a top-level QB - in a trade. You should at least also recieve another RB for depth in the trade.
