Bench:
J.P. Losman - QB
Chester Taylor - RB
Julius Jones - RB
Santana Moss - WR
Mark Clayton - WR
Chris Chambers - WR

good trade?? good team???

Answer 1

good trade and good team. reggie wayne is good but ahman isnt and marques will get all of drew bree's tds, marshawn is a starter and coles is also a starter. gore and brown are pretty good starters and if any of your wide receivers start do bad put in santana or chambers right away.

Answer 2

Personally, I don't like that trade. Wayne has been playing very well, and is ranked very high on many lists. I believe he can finish top 3, maybe even top WR at the end of the year. He has been playing like a prime stud. Green has a new team, but Houston has worked offseason so he will actually be able to run the ball. I think he will have a good season.

Colston-had a great rookie season, but I don't think he will top that. He will play like he did last year, and will be a decent #2 WR on a team. Lynch is a rookie, and definately won't get the load in Buffalo with A-Train there, and him still learing the new system. Coles is ok, but he was pretty much a throw in.

I presonally think you lost in this trade because Wayne's great play, he's a key factor. Getting Lynch didn't even help you much at all. Look at the RB and WR you had priior and after

RB's: Gore, Brown
-back-up Green

WR's-Evans,Wayne,Moss
-Clayton

I personally think your team was stronger before. gore and brown were starters either way and Green was a good back up. Wayne Evans and Moss looks a lot better than what you have now. Losing Wayne was the major key, but that's my opinion. Team still looks good, but I liked your team before the trade.

Answer 3

I like Green better than Lynch, who will likely be platooning in Buffalo this year. BUT... it is rarely a bad trade when you get three decent players for two. I like your receiver lineup, and the rest of your starters are great. Your backups are not too shabby, either. If you are in a ten or twelve team league, then you're looking pretty solid. Don't know if you'll win without seeing the other teams, but you'll be competitive. If Ronnie Brown ever turns into the back he us SUPPOSED to be, then you'll be in great shape.
