Trade proposition for a different FFL

Sgt PSN · August 25, 2005, 11:44:31 AM

The thing about having Rudi and Chad Johnson on your squad is that they both play for the same team. I'm not a big fan of having a starting RB and WR on the same team because if one has a big day the other probably isn't. Also, if the Bengals go up against a tough defensive team, you've now limited your choices when it comes to selecting favorable matchups.

(2 WR, 2 RB, QB, TE, K, DEF, W/R).

that means you can start 3 RB's right? atleast thats what I was going by, hence also keeping Westbrook.

If you're going to keep Rudi, be sure to make that trade. I'm just sayin'.

And I don't understand why you're hating on Westbrook. He racks up the rushing AND receiving yards... and certainly touchdowns as well.

rjs246 · August 25, 2005, 01:40:56 PM

New question... but pretty much the same. Let's say this dude looking for tomlinson throws in a second-round pick as well, giving me:
McNabb
K. Jones
Westbrook
2 first round picks
2 second round picks

My thinking is K.Jones > Rudi Johnson, Westbrook = Westbrook, McNabb < Tomlinson BUT an extra 1st and an extra 2nd and McNabb = Tomlinson.

Can you tell I'm bored with my team?

I think I would take Rudi over Kevin Jones.

I guess I'm more impressed with Jones than you, or less impressed with Rudi. Jones didn't even really shoulder much of a load until the last 5 games of the season and when he did he tore it up. Rudi is basically worthless with receiving yards, but he does get lots of TDs. shtein I don't know.

MURP · August 25, 2005, 01:51:26 PM

nah, I think Jones is gonna be real good. I just think Rudi Johnson will get more touches. They will run him right into the ground. Either RB will good stuff.

Zanshin · August 25, 2005, 02:07:30 PM

I'd take Jones over Johnson in a heartbeat. I think Johnson will start to lose some touches to Chris Perry this year, and Jones is pretty much the only game in town.

Some dude offered my Bubba Franks and Plaxico for Tony Gonzalez. I laughed in his face. His stupid internet face. Now Gonzo will get hurt. Guaranteed.

I love when people offer me trades like that.
I usually "counter" with something equally retarded in my favor to prove a point.

HA! I do the exact same thing, but when I went to do it to this guy I took one look at his roster and realized that he didn't have a single player that i wanted. His running backs are J Lewis, JJ Arrington, C Williams and Mike Anderson. One guy right out of prison, one guy right off of a season where he didn't play and two rookies. His QBs are Eli and McNair.

his team really really sucks. I called him a douche and told him his team sucked and he bet me $100 that it would finish higher than my team. Easy money.

PoopyfaceMcGee · August 26, 2005, 03:02:51 PM

He'll never pay up. Douches are weasels.

rjs246 · August 26, 2005, 03:05:01 PM

Nah he's good people. I just like to get abrasive with my trash talk and got his blood up enough to make a stupid bet. I love it.

PoopyfaceMcGee · August 26, 2005, 03:45:14 PM

A guy in my one league is so thin at RB that he currently has Cedric Benson starting, so he posts that he wants RB help. I offered him Warrick Dunn & T.J. Houshmandzadeh for Javon Walker and Benson.

I think it's fair. For me.

rjs246 · August 26, 2005, 03:50:12 PM

If Benson signs and starts you've got a good deal there. If either of those doesn't happen, he's probably got the better of the deal.

Also, Benson's an idiot for holding out with a good running back on the team already.
