Trade proposed to me...

[inkman]

I currently have Leftwich as my starter, and Im pretty happy with that. One problem, bye week is upon us. My backup is Culpepper ( ), and while I have a chance to pick up Gradkowski ( ), I would like to shore up my QB situation a wee bit more.

 

Here is what I get:

 

Roethlisberger

Miami D

 

Here is what I give up:

 

Droughns

Bills D

 

 

I have Parker, Cadillac, and Foster at RB while my #1 D is Denver. This feels like a no brainer. Big Ben is sucking but my alternatives don't look much better.

I think its only a matter of time before Big Ben starts to perform well......id do the trade!

He's selling Rothelisberger low, and you're selling Droughns low as well.

 

Its a good trade for you though just because you are gettting a player at a need position and getting rid of a player you have depth at.

 

Foster > Droughs anyday. Do it.

You'd have to think that Ben R is *due* to toss a td pass. They host KC this Sunday...although, KC's defense looks pretty decent going by points given up - 52 through 4 games. MIA travels to the Jets. I'd guess they are pretty angry, after the late loss to IND and the JAX shellacking last week.

 

I like the Bflo D to get a turnover or two against DET. You have to admire Kitna's grit, but the fact that he has those small hands has caused him to be a bit turnover-prone.

 

Myself, I'd go for Burgerman.

Do you have any FA recourse? If not, the trade should do you for the week.

I have a chance to pick up Gradkowski from TB but it's a claim system through fanball. I am ninth on the list so I have to hope that 8 other teams would pass. I've looked at everyones roster and their QB situations seems alright. I mean who the !@#$ wants to pick up TB's part time starter?

Understood. Suddenly the trade route is looking awfully appealing, inkman.

Gradkowski was picked up by someone else. I signed Harrington and proceeded with the trade.
