Questions
Should I do this trade?
First off, I'm not going to accept/decline until Sunday because one player is on a bye.

Trade McCoy/Andre Johnson for Ivory/ODB?

My team is:
QB: Ryan
RB: Forte
RB: McCoy
WR: Andre Johnson
WR: Demaryius
TE: Donnell
FLEX: Blue

BENCH: McKinnon, Sims, Reddick, Hurns, Sproles, Bryce Brown, Terrance Williams

I like ODB's upside in this trade, but NYJ run game? ouch.

Thoughts?

I"m really trying to go big and trade McCoy packaged with another player for Luck (guy also has Brady), Rodgers, Peyton (the guy is in last place and it's a keeper league so probably not).

    I think Ryan will do fine for you and has an easy schedule ROS.
    As far as the trade, it looks alright. If you don't believe in McCoy (which is doesn't look like), then it seems ok.
    You might be overpaying, since I think McCoy has the most value in this trade, but ODB is wrecking it and as long as the Jets aren't stupid, Ivory will do well as he's a solid RB2.

    and Andre looks old and is not doing much at all in Houston.

    I actually like McCoy and on paper, my team looks great, but after trading Gordon/Kelvin for DT, I was just looking for players with upside and McCoy hasn't shown much for me.

    yeah that's why I was trying to trade Johnson/Blue for ODB and the guy came back with this so I returned with McCoy/Johnson for Emmanuel Sanders and he laughed at me lol Other question, start Blue in flex or McKinnon or Sproles?

    That's tough. Blue inherits a run heavy offense. McKinnon is looking pretty good except for damn Asiata swooping in for all the TDs (curse you Matt). I don't think Sprolse is getting many touches, so it's between Blue and McKinnon for me

    I'd lean towards McKinnon as he gets the dumpsterfire Chicago D, so maybe he'll breakoff a nice run for a TD before Asiata can steal it.

    yeah that's what I'm thinking too, I like McKinnon and I'm hoping AP doesn't come back cuz the plan was to keep him in the flex spot. So should I do the trade or just stay put and hope McCoy wakes up or Mallet loves him some old man Andre?

    I obviously don't know anything about your league or the person you're trading with but my gut tells me that you can get Ivory and Beckham for less than that. This seems like a blatant attempt to buy low on both McCoy and Johnson. McCoy has a pretty favorable schedule and the most upside out of that group. I'd also prefer to hold Johnson for another week to see how many targets he gets from Mallett.

    I know I shouldn't do the trade, but I figured I'd at least think about it and ask you guys. Thanks for the feedback. btw Ivory has a better upcoming schedule than McCoy, but it's still McCoy getting 20 touches a game whereas Ivory is sharing with CJ2K and Vick

    What about the other trades? I'm trying to trade McCoy/McKinnon for Luck since the guy has Brady also. Or trade Ryan, McCoy, Blue for Rodgers (he is also Foster owner)
    Douglas Cady (575 Reputation Points)
    I don't think Rodgers is that much of an upgrade, not McCoy and Ryan and Blue worth. It's only maybe 5 pts a game over Ryan.

    I'm just trying to get as many top 3 players in each position and I already have a top 3 RB in Forte and a top 3 WR in DT, figured if I get a top 3 QB in Rodgers or Luck and round out the rest of my roster with solid people, I'd get an avg of 20-25 points a game from those 3 with a few 40-50 games sprinkled in between
