Decker and LeShoure for Mike Wallace?
(12-team league, 0.25 PPR, 2 extra points for 40+ yard plays) Looking to upgrade at WR2, and wondering what you guys think of Wallace going forward? I think the other owner would do it since he is awful at RB. And LeShoure is my RB4 at the moment with McCoy, Rice, and Gore ahead of him. You can see the rest of my team here: http://www.numberfire.com/nfl/user-teams/267

Just traded away Percy and CJ for McCoy and Decker, so Decker filled the WR2 void. Is he a better option than Wallace? Or is Wallace worth trading some depth at RB for? Let me know what you guys think!

    Wallace has a great game once in a while and has been pretty consistent.. But i think Decker has more upside.. Wallace has not done that much better than Decker while Decker was struggling and he is finally getting more targets from Manning.. One thing I do not like about Wallace is he struggles to find the end-zone in latter half of season. I think you are okay with what you have.. If he is really hurting at RB.. Offer Moore/LeShoure.. not a fair trade at all, but you never know who will bite and on what.

    He also has Torrey Smith, who he'd me more likely to trade for Moore/LeShoure, but would that be worth it?

    I would stick with Decker over Wallace. Wallace has only connected with Roethlisberger twice on plays of 20+ yards since something like week 11 of last year. Also, the Steelers have been wanting to run the ball more this season, and now that they have Mendy back, they'll actually be able to run the rock again. All this takes away from Wallace's value. Personally, I have Decker as a better option than Wallace (He has 14 more targets, 7 more receptions, 92 more yards, and only 1 less TD than Wallace). Also Decker plays in a much easier division than Wallace. So in short, your downgrading at WR and giving away a decent RB (I think LeShoure will get better as the season goes on), which all leads to not doing it.

    Thanks for the insight Tom. I was thinking the same but needed to be reassured. I just like Wallace's ability to stretch the field, and in turn stretch his fantasy points after getting +2 for 40 yard plays. And I like Peyton throwing to Decker more than Worthlessberger throwing to Wallace. I agree about LeShoure as well, I'll stash him and hope he gains some more value.
