"I had my draft last nite and ended up taking two super QBs (grabbed A Brooks in the 5th round) with the view I can make a trade at a later date. Roster is as follows:

QB - D Culpepper, A Brooks, M Brunell
RB - E James, D McAlister, A Smith, C Portis
WR - P Burress, J Smith, R Gardner, J Galloway
TE - T Heap, A Crumpler
PK - S Janokowski, J Feely
Def - NE Pats, Dallas Cowboys

This is a flex league we start 1 QB, 2/3 RB, 2/3 WR, 1 TE, 1 PK, 1 Defense. I'm shopping either A Brooks or D Culpepper looking for an upgrade at RB , WR or TE.
What do you think - which deal do you like better ?

1) A Brooks and J Galloway for M Vick and J Horn

2) A Brooks, J Galloway and T Heap for D Brees, D Jackson and T Gonzalez

3) A Brooks and A Smith for D Brees and C Dillon..."

StegRock's response:

First off, in general, I like the trades in the same order you listed them, but I hate #3 (I guess it seemed more reasonable a couple days ago when you wrote me since it appeared to be a lock that Anderson would sign with the Patriots). Anyway, the FIRST deal is the one I would REALLY try to cut. Vick, though a downgrade from Brooks for this year, would be a great compliment to Culpepper, especially if your league awards more points for rushing than passing and Horn would be a huge improvement over Galloway.
