Hey Guys, I am not sitting great at RB right now. I have texted a few people about possibly trading telling them to take a look at my roster. This morning I get an offer, CJ Spiller for Jimmy Graham. I am pretty certain I can get more for Graham since Spiller is only the 7th scoring RB in our league. We have a 5 RB limit so I will be forced to drop a RB if I accept. I have Donnell and Jordan Reed so I am not doing too bad at TE. I was thinking of packaging a running back with Graham to pick up Leveon Bell now that I know he wants him. Is Sankey too low? I don't think I can offer him an injured Graham and an injured Rashad Jennings. That leaves me with Vereen, and Hillman. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks Brian
I don't like the Graham for Spiller trade even if you do get points on special teams. I would stand pat because with a healthy Beckham, Donnell's value could plunge. Then you'd be stuck with Reed. I wouldn't make any moves until we see if Donnell is still part of the game plan this week. If not, people should start thinking about tossing him.
How about Rashad Jennings straight up for Spiller? He has Andre Willams whom he picked up off the waiver wire this week. Do you think its worth it for me to trade him away or should I just stick to what I have and wait out the injury to Jennings? Better yet, would that be an even trade? He has Spiller on his bench and would more than likely have Jennings there anyway. Thanks Brian
with your settings, what is spiller averaging a week? spiller is barely doing anything offensively. and if his return yards aren't really producing much, i wouldn't take it. the giants won't faze jennings out, even if williams does do well. he's a better pass catcher and blocker. you'll have to wait 3 weeks, however, since jennings is out this week, doubtful for week 7 and the giants have their bye week 8. however, jennings is still worth more to keep on the bench.
Spilller stats View attachment 59163 His stats week to week aren't great but they add up to make him the 7th gaining back in our league right now. I guess you're right. I am just panicking a little bit. I was really hoping to get back to winning after a loss last week. I guess I should just hold out and pray that I don't get too far behind before my team gets healthy again. Thanks for all the responses Greg. I appreciate it! Brian
wow, i hadn't realized spiller racked up so many points from return yards. i'm rethinking this now. spiller's schedule is pretty lenient in regards to rushing defenses. he still faces the jets twice and chiefs, but his playoff schedule looks really good with the last 5 games going up against defenses in the bottom half against the run. since you get more return points than i anticipated, i say go for it.
Well he finally replied and upped the ante. Now he wants to trade Def/St with me as well. He wants my Chargers D and wants to give me Packers D. I have the Bengals D on my bench. Think the deal still stands?
Oh this guy is a D isn't he. Take it since you have the Bengals. But if he keep F'n around, forget about the trade.
