It depends. I think this could be legitmate, depending on the needs of each team. You have to look at the whole trade. If Team 1 was desperate for QBs and had plenty of WRs (or TEs, depending on league roster requirements), then the trade is legit regardless of Palmer's current condition. You never know what he'll be doing for the rest of the season. Now, if Team 1 already had Romo and Manning (either one of them) and is giving up Gonzalez to start Greg Olsen, then void it.

I have romo at QB, vernon "I look good in under armour" Davis at TE. Gonzalez obviously helps me.

He has Mat Ryan and Pennington(had Brady) and Bo scaife(Now) at TE, Palmer obviously helps him

The only way i'm voiding the trade is if Palmer is out for a long time

I am completely confused. Him and me aren't helping. Which team is parting with Palmer?

I have Winslow on a BYE. Who is the better pickup. John Carlson or Kevin Boss?

My backs right now are Jackson, Forte, and Slaton. I started Slaton this week and that paid off. I have to start him this week because Jackson has a bye. Here's the question. Long term do y'all think Slaton has better value than Deuce?

I was offered the following trade

Thomas Jones and Jason Campbell, for Peyton Manning and Randy Moss

I'd be receiving T. Jones and Campbell. Normally this is a no brainer to reject but Peyton and Moss have been giving me barely any production and I do need help at the RB position. thoughts?? (PS my other QB is Favre)

I think if you want to trade Manning or Moss you can get better value. I don't trust Campbell long term. And the Jets are probably going to open up the offense after last week.

I know but the guy doesn't have a whole lot to offer and I'm afraid that the second I trade those two they will have huge games and get on a roll.

Never take lesser value for your assets just because someone is eager to make a trade and you are too.

I have Slaton and just dropped McGahee for Deuce. Hopefully Westbrook gets healthy and Deuce stays healthy.

I looked at the trade. Both teams get help where they need it. There is no reason to void this trade. If Palmer stays gimpy, then the guy who got Gonzalez gets the better end of the deal. If Palmer returns to pro bowl form and the Chiefs continue to look like a pop warner team, then . . . you know the rest.

There is no way to answer that question today. Deuce had one good week. The Saints may decide that he belongs back in the lime light, but we don't know that yet. Slaton looks to be a good prospect long term, but that team has some issues to deal with. You never know whether the future changes that really need to be made will result in more or less carries for the rook.

Based on the information I have today, I'd give Slaton the nod, but I could change my mind if Deuce continues to produce.

This is not a good trade for you. If Peyton and Moss both turn out to busts, that will be a big shock to the fantasy world. If Jones and Campbell turn out to be fantasy duds, not one eyebrow will be raised. The chances of you looking like a genius for doing this are slim to none, one out of ten, maybe. Chances that you'll be sorry: nine out of ten. Better safe than sorry.

There is no way to answer this one. TO is better than Chambers and Addai is better than McFadden. Problem is that RBs tend to perform every week where WRs can have an off week where they get no points. Given that, I guess I'd rather have Chambers and Addai because with Mac and TO, you could end up zero on any given Sunday.

K, i will get Chambers and Addai. I justify it by Dmac splitting carries with Michael Bush and Fargas. He's only had one good game so far. I think Addai will get lots of carries since Manning is struggling and Chambers is the Chargers deep threat.

Well, I might qualify that statement. I think Manning will struggle less and less as the season goes on. I don't think he'll need to lean on Addai, but I do think he'll utilize Addai more when the passing threat is back in full force. As for Chambers, I like him, but Rivers likes Jackson, too, and the whole town loves Gates. There are many weapons out in SD, but there are many points being scored, too. Chambers will get his share, but he's not the only home run threat.
