Trade Questions: Give up Julio Jones & JStew for Andre Johnson & MJD
My current squad:12 team league, non-ppr
QB - RG3, Big Ben
RB - Ahmad Bradshaw, Stevan Ridley, Jahvid Best
WR - Calvin Johnson, Julio Jones, Brandon Lloyd, Kendall Wright
TE - Jimmy Graham, Brandon Pettigrew
D/ST - Houston, Miami
I feel like I need some RB help, even though Ahmad Bradshaw went off last week, we all know that won't last. MJD has a great rest of the season schedule, and the guy offering the trade is desperate for a WR. I'm not crazy about Andre Johnson. What do you think?

2BEAST MODE (607 Reputation Points)Not a bad trade I think. I have Julio and am high on him, but with Roddy there, he has weeks of 20 pts and then 3 pts. Andre will do the same, so they can almost be a wash, except for the days Julio dominates for 6/100/2 but you never know when that will come. But clearly MJD is a big upgrade over JStew, so you win there. Megatron is past his BYE now so he is a start the rest of the way, and with Lloyd you have the same and can plugin Andre on the lone bye week. Jahvid is a bench warmer so you clearly need another top RB. I would probably do it.2 Comments↳Tony Plush (500 Reputation Points)You echoed all my thoughts.

1Hardliner1 (388 Reputation Points)Andre Johnson's numbers are WAY down this season thus far. Seems like they don't even target him more than 4/5 times a game. He's not the young gun like before. MJD is on a bye this week, so unless you have someone ready to start, I'd say no.1 Comment↳Tony Plush (500 Reputation Points)yeah Andre is definitely not getting the targets since Houston is just running the ball non-stop. Given how Reggie Wayne and Marques Colston did against the Pack D the past 2 weeks though, it's clear that WR1s are tearing up the pack, so he could have a big week. I'm not too concerned with this week, since I'm in a good spot in the standings, but I'm trying to just plan for going forward by getting MJD on the squad.
