Trade LT? need lots of help?

Question

This is my team...

QB - Garcia
RB - Kevin Jones
RB - LT
WR - Burress
WR - Wayne
WR - Curtis
TE - Cooley

Bench - Ben Watson, Earnest Graham, Chris Henry (receiver), Crayton

I Have been offered Colston, Dallas Clark, Willie Parker and Jones Drew for LT... my concerns are that San Diegos Offense isnt centered around LT anymore but Willie Parker doesnt score touchdowns, Colston only had one big week, Cooley is good, and Jones-Drew is pretty good. What do you think, trade him? trade him for a qb and rb? or keep him?

Answer 1

Keep Him. Your team doesn't look bad at all. Wayne putting up big numbers with Harrison hurting. Kevin Jones should have a Monster game against the poor Run defense of Denver. Chris Henry should be back soon.

Answer 2

The Chargers offense is most certainly centered around LT. It may not have seemed that way Sunday, because they scored so much on D/ST. Also, those pass plays for scores were kinda flukey. Then, when they had a good lead, they shut down the offense in the second half.

In the paper a few weeks ago, Norv Turner admitted that he didn't know how to use all of the weapons available on San Diego's offense. He said he was overwhelmed by "so many toys in the toybox." He and LT sat down and talked about how the offense should be used. And, here's the formula that San Diego will use most of the time:

- Run LT up the middle behind O'Neal or off the left side behind Dielman

- When defenses stack the box to defend the run, hit LT in the flat or a screen over the D-line, or hit Gates over the middle

- When defenses bring the DBs up to take the middle away, run a play action to LT, and send Jackson and Chambers long

- When the defense goes back to protect against the pass, pound the line with more LT

- In the middle of the third quarter, bring in Turner for a change-of-pace back. Tire out the defensive line.

- Bring in a fresh LT to finish off the game

Do not trade LT. Remember, it was about this time last year that he reeled off three games in a row with at least 3 TDs. And, the Chargers will be fighting to the last game of the season for the top spot in the AFC West and some home-field advantage. Unless the perfect season is still available, the Patriots will sit Brady once home-field advantage is theirs.

Answer 3

Thats a huge trade, remember if you complete that given trade, depending on your league you may have to release some of your players to make room for those new players.

I think it would be very tough but yes I would take the trade. Colston has been so-so this year and with Brees finally finding his groove I think he will flourish.

Dallas Clark is def better than Cooley and will stay consistent with the Colts killer offense

Willie and Jones-Drew are great backs. Jones finally has gotten it together and everyone knows that Fred Taylor cant stay healthy for much longer and Mojo is just an outstanding back. As for Parker he is a great explosive back and Pitt has a good team so they will continue to pound the ball.

Take the trade if you have roster spaces, if not take all the players you will have to drop into consideration. Even with that it would still be better for you. Curtis can def take the hit to drop off your starting roster and so can Kevin Jones

Answer 4

OK. Listen close................NEVER trade LT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Unless you can get like Brady and Moss for him, then pull the trigger. LOL. I wouldn't do it, you don't need RB, WR, or TE help. Upgrade your QB, you'll win enough with that.

Answer 5

Absolutely, not. Your team is fine, but try to upgrade in your QB slot.

Answer 6

NEVER trade LT
he is just warming up.
