Good Trade?

Question

here's my team:

QB: Hasslebeck, Bulger
RB: LT, Maroney, Dunn, Tatum bell
WR: Coles, Housh, Re. Williams, Fitz, K. Johnson
TE: LJ Smith, Gonzalez
K: Kasay
DEF: Chi

ok ya my team is sick but i'm still 4-3 due to some injuries and bad luck. Despite how it looks LT and Bulger are really the only two guys that i can depend on for points week in and week out. I love LT because even in his worst rushing game, he'll throw or catch a TD. No other RB can say that. I've been offered trade after trade after trade for him and now here's one that i don't laugh at.

i get: Tiki, Edge, and Steven Jackson

i give up: LT

a year ago i would've done this in a heartbeat. But Tiki has no TDs, Edge has no O-line, and jackson...well he's doing very well. LT has twice as many TDs as all 3 of them combined. And i can only start 2 RBs a week. But all of them are premier backs and part of me thinks that i need to make a move to win my league. What do i do?

Answer 1

Sounds like you are in a bogus league if someone is willing to give you that many guys. Plus, that means you are still gonna have to drop guys from your roster to make room for the extras which means the guy that proposed the trade could get more of you team even though he's only asking for LT. Not a good move.

Answer 2

Dont EVER trade LT. He has been one of the most productive fantasy backs, top 1 or 2 year in and year out. Letting him go would be a huge mistake. Edge is running behind a bad offensive line. Jackson is ok but the Rams throw all the time. Tiki is great buuuuuuuuut....... he is offering you 3 running backs for 1, that should tell you something.

Answer 3

try to get something else other than edge, like a good WR. this trade wouldn't really help you too much though, because you already have multiple starting caliber RBs, so you need quality over quantity, which is exactly what you would be losing with this trade. also, you would have to drop two players, which makes this a pretty bad deal.

Answer 4

I would take the trade, Tiki's production will pickup and Jackson is a stud. If the Rams want to go anywhere they will have to feed him the rock.

Answer 5

hell no....you already got 2 RBs you start every week in LT and probably bell. there's no need to crowd your roster with 6 RBs. plus, those 3 combined probably won't compare to LT by himself.

Answer 6

why trade LT, he's one of your primary point getter. you have dunn that still racking up yards despite having a td hear and there. i we're you revamp your receiving corp that's where you need help.
