Title: Major Trade need help
Post by GURUMAN on Oct 20th, 2004, 4:49pm
SHould I trade Thomas Jones and Stokely for Marshall Faulk and Quincy MOrgan.

The reason why I am considering it is because I have Mark Bulger, Torry Holt, and Jeff Wilkins, and Stephen Jackson. I just thought that would finish off the rest I needed for that Rams offense. And more points too whether it is a pass or run.


MY TEAM IS AS FOLLOWS:

Marc Bulger
Trent Green
Chris Brown
Stephen Jackson
Anquan Boldin
Chad Johnson
Torry Holt
Jeff Wilkins
Denver Defense
Antonio Bryant
Keary Colbert

Definitely not. QMorgan and BStokely are a push, while Thomas Jones has a lot more FFvalue than Faulk right now. So far this year, Jones is the fifth best RB in per game poiknts while Faulk is the 16th. I don't see the disparity in points changing any time soon, as Faulk is losing a lot of touches to Jackson.

The only reason to do this trade is to build a novelty team composed purely of Rams.

I don't even think Morgan and Stokley are a push... Stokley is far better than Morgan right now and Morgan won't get used much in Dallas.

Also, aside from the novelty aspect, why would you want all the players from the same NFL team?  That's just bad FF strategy.

Agreed.   I understand the QB/WR combo sometimes.  Holt & Bulger is a good combo.  You can even make a case for Wilkins.  But that's as far as you want to push it when "going homer".  Take off those blue & gold glasses and decline this trade!   [smiley=thumbsdown.gif]

Decline the trade and grab Shaun McDonald and Kevin Curtis off the waiver wire.
