Blockbuster Trade Offer in My Big Money League - The Orange Mane

SouthStndJunkie · 09-18-2008, 03:00 PM

Hey fellas....just wanted to run this by you guys.

I am not one to ask for opinions often, but I just wanted to run this by someone else before making a decision.

I have a trade offer in my big money league that I have been agonizing over for a few days.

He wants to trade me Terrell Owens and Michael Turner in exchange for Adrian Peterson and Chad Johnson.

If I got Terrell Owens, I would have 3 of the top 6 or 7 WRs with B-Marsh, Greg Jennings, and Terrell Owens. I think Chad Johnson is going to have a crappy year as he has 50 some yards so far and Cinci looks like they are going to suck big time.

I would hate to give up AP, but Michael Turner looks like he will have a good year, and AP is already nicked up.

The scoring in the league is pretty standard....1 point for every 10 yards rush/rec and 6 points for TDs.

What would you do?

Thanks.

i think id pull the trigger .... what are your rbs like?

I pulled the trigger on the deal.

My RBs are a little weak....but I will get by. I have 3 stud WRs now....plus Jay Cutler slinging the rock.

These are my RBs: Michael Turner, Chris Johnson (who I think is going to have a real good year), Selvin Young, Andre Hall, Chester Taylor, and Justin Fargas.

No Brainer, looks like a steal to me. The guy must have a man crush on AP.

They guy I made the trade with now wants me to rescind the trade because of AP's sore hammy.

I told him no. If AP was going to be out for any length of time, I would not have been a prick and made the trade. He has a sore hammy and expects to play this week. I can't rescind the trade for that reason. If I just found out that T.O. was going to miss this week, I would not ask to rescind the deal.

Did the tweaked hammy make the decision to trade him easier?

Yes, but I would have probably still made the trade regardless.

He is acting like I am a prick because I agreed on the trade after the injury was revealed.

Am I the prick here?

He is the one who proposed the deal.

Boo ****ing boo ... when you trade for AD you need to be aware of the fact that AD has had to deal with a fair share of injuries in his young career ... college and pro. Apart from that, rotoworld reported that AD had a sore hamstring on Wednesday and that he´s been a little limited in practice all week.

He can´t blame you if he doesn´t do his homework before he makes a trade.

Yep....AP is the kind of back that can get you 200 yards and 3 TDs a few weeks and then miss a few weeks when he is nicked up.

He is the one who proposed the trade and then left it up there for 4 days.

I can't help it he is having buyer's remorse.

If you want to be a prick and rub it in a little you should offer him Chester Taylor as a handcuff and leave a comment like "I think your RB1 is a little injury prone"
