Shaun Alexander and Armani Toomer for Clinton Portis and Hines Ward. I'll be giving away Alexander & Toomer for Portis & Ward.
I'm worried that Alexander will be nothing without this O-Line that has done so well for him the past few seasons.
Or should I ask for Stephen Jackson and Hines Ward?
Please help.....thanks

Take Jackson, not portis. portis is hurt and even when he gets back you dont know if he'll be 100 percent

Keep Alexander!! Portis and Ward are both injury prone and will be battling with their problems all season long. And besides... Portis' offensive line is a joke compared to Seattle's. The only lineman that was a detrimental loss was Hutchinson. They still have Jones, who is argueably the best LT in the game. Keep Alexander although I would recommend dumping Toomer for a better wideout. Toomer has been hot lately and you might be able to fenagle a decent no. 1 on a streaky passing team for him right now.. like a Derek Mason or Andre Johnson.

Don't make the trade. Shuan Alexander is far better than Portis who is hurt anyway. Toomer also should have to good season since Eli likes to pass even if Tiki is there. I think he'l have a better season than Hines Ward.

i think that is a good trade. portis is probably as good as Shaun, but Portis was injured. Also, i would take hines ward over toomer any day. toomer is too inconsistent.

Jackson and Ward seems like the better trade. Portis' shoulder injury will be tender for most of the season, I had a similar injury in college and I took most of the season for my shoulder to feel better and I wasn't a RB that had to make contact on 20-30 carries a game. Plus Jackson is a work horse in that new balanced rams offense. Considering how how poorly the passing has looked in the last two rams games, Jackson is going to see many more carries this year and I predict his stats will be comparable to Alexander this year.

I would def not make that trade... alexander went first in prob about 99% of the leagues out there lol.. hes a great back with power and agility and will pick it up... the seahawks are a 2 dimensonal team where they dont depend on just the running or the throwing.. alexander will show y he was picked 99% of the time and y he is the defending MVP of the league. Not to mention portis is hurt and has still not played... dont do it!

First of all, I wouldn't make the trade because it is way too early to give up on Alexander. However, if you do have to make the trade, then go for Jackson instead of Portis.

LOL...Seattle only got rid of one guy on the line and now that the Hawks have signed Branch their passing game will open up even more which will make the threat of running the ball even more potent. Last week Shaun ran for 89 yards and a TD and the Hawks will only get better. Second, the Hawks D only gave up 16 points and putting the O on the field alot. This weeks game against the Giants should be big and I think we will see the best back in football shine and he will be wearing Hawks green and blue for all you Tiki fans...lol

Take Jackson, Portis is hurt and it may be a while before he plays.
