JimBob2232 Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Well...my team that shocked the world when i posted my roster here after the draft is now 0-4. My Current RBs Green Henry Taylor Barber My Current TEs Boo Williams LJ Smith I was offered Taylor for Crumpler. Do I do it? I also have Vick/McNair and Roth as QB WRs: Stallworth, Roy Williams, Muhammad and Stokley I think Crumpler would be a good upgrade at TE, and I dont lose much (perhaps I even gain) if i start henry or barber instead of taylor....

I know you have depth at the position, but you must be able to get more for Fred than a TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would probably trade Henry before I traded Taylor. I won my league last year with Taylor and the Edge in my backfield. Taylor gets better as the year goes on.

No TE is consistant enough to even consider giving up a premier back. btw, Henry should be your fourth RB out of that group. Why not try to package one of your solid RB and a good WR in exchange for a premier WR (Holt or Harrison). As for TE, Boo may still come around.

BILLS4LIFE Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 I would just stick with Taylor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted October 9, 2004 Share Posted October 9, 2004 Well...my team that shocked the world when i posted my roster here after the draft is now 0-4.

The guy scoring the most points in my league is doing so because his RBs "sucked", or at least that's what we thought after the draft...Barber and Martin...I still think they'll both tail off a bit, but get all the points out of Barber you can while he's hot. And no, a slight increase in your TE points isn't worth giving another owner a quality RB...sometimes the best strategy is keeping good players on your bench away from other owners...though a better strat is packaging a few of your players together (a starter and a guy on your bench) together for an top flight player...A TE is a waste of time in most leagues.

JimBob2232 Posted October 12, 2004 Author Share Posted October 12, 2004 So, I have now been offered Harrison for Tiki Barber...Do I do it? I mean, Barber is playing way over his head, and harrison is treading water. If this was week 1, i do it in a second. If I had any confidence in henry or taylor i do it in a second. But now im not so sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now im not so sure... 67213[/snapback] Based on the relative strength of your RB v. WR, I would do it. Harrison is a major impact player who will continue to excel. The Giants are on a nice run now, but that could end -- they just lost one of their WRs. I think teams are going to start keying on Tiki anyway and forcing Warner to beat them via the air. Remember....buy low, sell high. The time to unload Tiki for good value is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I do have him, he is one of the only guys that's doing anything for me, but I don't know how long that will last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROCCEO Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Well...my team that shocked the world when i posted my roster here after the draft is now 0-4. My Current RBs Green Henry Taylor Barber My Current TEs Boo Williams LJ Smith I was offered Taylor for Crumpler. Do I do it? I also have Vick/McNair and Roth as QB WRs: Stallworth, Roy Williams, Muhammad and Stokley I think Crumpler would be a good upgrade at TE, and I dont lose much (perhaps I even gain) if i start henry or barber instead of taylor.... 62447[/snapback] you're nuts, don't do it, a good RB is twice as valuable as a good TE. If I were you Id look to upgrade and get a 1st or 2nd tier receiver for a RB. PLus, LJ Smith has been tearin' it up in philly this year, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
