Title: jabenus trade help thread
Post by jabenus on Aug 22^nd, 2006, 9:15pm

I have a redraft league.
1 Qb, 2 Rbs, 3 Wr's, 1 TE, 1 Kicker, 1 Def

My team is currently

Phillip Rivers
Mike Vick

Javon Walker
Matt Jones
Drew Bennett
Hank Baskett
Donte Stallworth

Chester Taylor
Corey Dillon
T. J. Duckett
Laurence Maroney
Deuce McAllister

Antonio Gates

My question is should I trade Matt Jones and Mike Vick for Jerry Porter and Jon Kitna? Dont you think I need the upgrade on my QB and I got enough WR to sustain the lost of Jones or should I just keep these dudes and go with what I have?

Don't do that trade. Kitna, though he was on track before Palmer took over his job in Cincy, is not a step up in QB. Porter is a step down from Matt Jones. At best this trade would be a wash, but you've got the guys with the upside in my opinion.

I don't like this trade at all... I'd take Vick over Kitna, and Jones over Porter any day of the week (especially Tuesday).

jabenus, I made this request of you NUMEROUS times last year, and I did yet again on yet ANOTHER one of your "trade help" threads here over the last week or so...

Also, note, you really don't need to be starting NEW threads every time you want input on a trade you're contemplating! I think we went through this last year with you. The trade you ask about here isn't all too different than the one you asked about over here: http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=55;action=display;num=1155333146. You DEFINITELY could have appended this one to that thread. In any event, you should just make yourself ONE "trade help" thread, a "HELP jabenus make trades" thread, for all of your "trade-help" queries... I hope to see you proceed in that manner.

Here are jabenus's other three from as of late, including the one currently RIGHT BENEATH this one:

I just want you to know that until you can show me the decency of honoring this simple request of mine on my FREE web site, from which all you have done is take, take, take, instead of BLATANTLY DEFYING IT like you have today, and just make a "jabenus trade help" thread for yourself on which you put all of your, often all too similar, trade questions and show a pattern of using that thread and ONLY that thread for your trade help, I 1) am boycotting responding to your trade questions and REQUEST ALL MEMBERS TO and 2) may start considering these incessant "trade help" threads of yours spam and treating them accordingly. I consider this due warning! PLEASE, make one thread for yourself and leave it at that. In fact, you will find that it will help discussions on your trade questions be more targetted and productive instead of having the same old questions being hashed over and over.

Here,... I've even made this EASY for you, jabber... I've gone ahead and changed the "subject" of THIS thread to "jabenus trade help thread"... Let's see what you do... I'll be watching... [smiley=checkin.gif] If you follow through now, we're cool. 8-)

It's a crap shoot, but I'd make the trade. Barlow has been a perenial under achiever and Bennet, when healthy, verges on extremely good. Make the trade.

I think Taylor will be a stud for you and Dillion should continue to get decent yards and punch in TD's...he had 12 TD's last year. With the possibility that Branch gets traded next week Dillions #'s could increase this year. You got the handcuff with Maroney and that was good thinking.

You got to pray Rivers does better than people think...that may be your weakest link.

You asked for advice on this thread, not a crusifiction...good luck with your league!

;) ;)

This is the thread I want jabbers sticking to, though. I would like discussion on ANY of jabbers's trade threads conducted here. Quote (like I just did here), do whatever if need be. Just keep it here, please. Thank you.
