Title: QB Help
Post by Mossaholic on Sep 13^th, 2004, 12:39am

After watching this week's games who do you guys like for my QB. At my draft I went RB happy and took Carr late in the 14th round because I liked his week 1 matchup but it did not work out to well for me [smiley=alcoholic.gif]. He is my only QB on roster. These are the QBs still available in the order I that I like them.

1. J. Garcia
2. J. Plummer
2.. R. Gannon
4. C. Palmer
5. M. Brunell
6. B. Johnson

Another option I have would be to trade away a RB. I already talked about a trade for McNair with the guy who also has Alexander. With Alexander injury he is probably even more interested now. I could trade away Barlow, Henry, or Griffin (I still would have A. Green and D. Davis, its a 10 team league and I have no idea how all those guys fell to me). This owner has been known to get all excited about a player after one game and after seeing Griffin tonight I can almost gurantee he is foaming at the mouth to get him.

Should I deal an RB or just take my chances with one of the FA QBs and spend ten hours every week trying to decide which RB to start?

Thanks for the input

You don't get points for guys sitting on the bench. Trade one of your 15 stud RBs for a stud QB.

Trade Henry or Griffin to the other owner for a starting QB. Then grab Carson Palmer off waivers as a #2.

Thanks for the help but I'm still debating what to do. I am surprised that no one said to keep my RBs and just pick up Garcia that is what I was leaning towards.

I understand this but isn't it better to have them producing points on my bench then on someone else's lineup. I think I just might be too worried about RB injuries and being screwed by not having RBs later in the year. I just see RBs as a lot more important than QBs and feel that I will always be able to find a decent QB on waivers.

Tell me why I'm wrong for thinking this.

I was offered Vick for Barlow today and I'm debating whether or not to accept it. Would I be crazy to reject it and just pick up Garcia? Vick has lots of upside but he worries me. Garcia almost doubled his points in week 1 while facing a much tougher D.

I respect your guy's opinion and just want to know what you think and tell me why I might be way off base.

If you can trade Griffin for McNair, go for it [smiley=thumbsup.gif] . Vick for Barlow isn't bad either, though some here may disagree; I'm just not a Barlow fan. I agree with you on Garcia, you might want to grab him either way to have some QB backup.
