Should I trade Marvin Harrison or Randy Moss for Larry Johnson?

Question

I have Marvin Harrison and Randy Moss both on my team. This guy in my league is unhappy with Larry Johnson's poor performance so far and he lacks receivers so he wants to trade for a top tier guy. In this league that I am in, you get .5 points per catch. Should I trade him either of my 2 star wideouts for Johnson? If so, which one? Moss is hot right now but Harrison is just so reliable.

My QB is Drew Brees,

My runnings backs consist of:

rb 1: Steven Jackson
rb 2: Cedric Benson
rb 3: Cadillac Williams
rb 4: Marshawn Lynch
rb 5: Brandon Jackson
rb 6: Lendale White
rb 7: Chester Taylor


My WRs are:

wr 1: Marvin Harrison
wr 2: Marques Colston
wr 3: Randy Moss
wr 4: Jericho Cotchery
wr 5: Donte Stallworth
wr 6: Kevin Curtis

What do you guys think???

Guys, it is not 5 points per reception, it is 1/2 (.5) point per reception...

I am 0-2 in my league. I think I need to make a move..

Answer 1

No Kansas City playing too poorly. Harrison looks great.

Answer 2

If I were you I wouldn't touch Larry for either of those two. You have enough RB's to pull out of this and Larry isn't going to have a blowaway year. His line sucks and the teams is in shambles. Moss and harrison are way more valueable. Offer him a lesser value wr and one of your rb's or just pass on it. It has been a wild start to the season,but you can bet that Mr. Reliable will be worth keeping and Moss is going to stay this productive all year. Lendale White is looking great for TD's this year and you have an array of decent backs to sustain you. You record should start turning around. Get RID of chester. I am a die hard Vikes fan, but there is absolutely nothing on that offense to be desired for fantasy purposes.

Answer 3

The reason your 0-2 in your league isn't going to be fixed by
the addition of LJ, but it could get worse without Moss or
Harrison. The trade you need to make, is at the QB position.
Drew Brees has as many INT's after 3 games, as he had all
last season, and a passer rating under 60.
help your team , trade up at QB.

Answer 4

Uh, at 5 points a catch I don't see how any RB comes close to being as valuable as top WRs.... Still, you can only start so many guys, there's a huge dropoff after your RB#1 and the clock is ticking on Randy Moss pulling a groin, hammy or rolling an ankle- so trade the Mosster! LJ will improve as the season goes on.

Answer 5

Don't make the trade. LJ plays on argubably the worst offense in the league. The only talent is him and gonzalez so whomever they are playing will just load up the box and dare KC to pass. Furthermore, Herm edwards has no clue how to run a professional football team, let alone a successful offense.

Answer 6

How many roster spots do you have, like 30??

Um, well I'm not sure how many you can start at RB but Jackson is solid. You don't look to need a RB or a WR.

Is this like a 3 person league you're in?? Not sure they allowed you to get Brees, Jackson, and Harrison...enjoy the "competition."

Answer 7

Trade, but not for LJ. Look for someone else in your league that's weak at WR and steal one of their RBs. KC has no QB threat and teams are stacking 9 in the box against him. I don't care if he's Gale Sayers, he's not busting through that anytime soon.

Answer 8

I wouldn't do it straight up. See if you can get another good player from his team, especially if you're thinking of trading Moss, he's to good right now for just LJ.

Answer 9

No that is bad Brady is your whole team you cant afford to give him up and johnson is pretty solid at runningback but the Gonzo Gates thing is the only thing you would really get out of it

Answer 10

youre team is pretty good. once brees gets going and jackson you actually may be unstoppable. start caddy this week. in a few weeks lynch goes vs some crappy defenses too. your wrs are great. dont trade at all. be patient.
