	Topic: Trade DMC?
Clint_39079 Membership: Retired Joined: August 07 Total Posts: 267 Offline	Post Date: 09/21/12 14:15 PPR, bonus for 100yd games and long TDs I give: DMC and Colston I get: Lynch and Nicks What you say? How worried should I be about NIcks foot? Is this extended rest going to get him all the way back? Am I giving up on DMC too soon? Zone blocking scheme, terrible team playing from behind and abandoning the run, Carson not able to throw the ball down the field to a depleted WR core causing defense to stack the box? Lynch does play the 49ers my super bowl week... ouch. ---- QB - Brees, Cam RB - MJD, TRichardson, CJ2K, Ballard, Felix WR - Green, Jordy, Calvin, Cobb TE - Vernon Davis

I am not a huge fan of Colston at all but at least he is on the field even if he is the third option after Sproles and Jimmy G. I personally would not do the trade. ---- 10 team PPR League Starters = 1qb, 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 te, 1 te/wr, 1 defense, 1 kickers All td's are 6pts rec= 1/5 yds, 1/catch, 5 bonus/100yds rushing= 1/5yds, 1/ 5 carries 5 bonus/100yds qb= 1/20yd Return Yards 1/10yds QB's= Peyton, Eli RB's= CJ, Foster, Leshoure, Starks WR's= M. Austin, B. Marshall, A. Brown, Wayne, M. Williams, E. Sanders TE's= Rudolph , Myers D= Broncos K= Bryant If winning doesn't matter, why do they keep score?

They were cautious with Hicks this weeks because it was a fast turn around. He likely would have played if they played sunday. Colston is also dinged up. Do the deal. ---- Keeper League- start 2Qb, 2Rbs, 3Wrs, TE, DEF, K, and 2 FLEX (Wr/Rb/TE).

Overall people seem about 50-50 on the deal. ---- QB - Brees, Cam RB - MJD, TRichardson, CJ2K, Ballard, Felix WR - Green, Jordy, Calvin, Cobb TE - Vernon Davis

Usually trades of rb/wr for rb/wr when players are fairly equal doesn't really improve either team. ---- QB - Brady WR - Wallace, Steve Johnson, D Alexander, Hilton, Givens RB - Sproles, Ridley, Bryce Brown, JBell, David Wilson TE - H Miller, Clark Def - Bengals K - Bailey Start 1-QB, 2-WR, 2-RB, 1-TE, 1-WR/RB/TE, 1-K, 1-D 12 Team PPR League 0.25 pts/completion 1 pt/rec 1 pt 10 yds rushing & receiving 6 pts TD, 1 pt 25 yds/ passing 4 pts passing TD, -2 fumble, -2 int

Also I think Colston is also dealing with a foot injury and has less upside than Nicks. Thanks for the input ---- QB - Brees, Cam RB - MJD, TRichardson, CJ2K, Ballard, Felix WR - Green, Jordy, Calvin, Cobb TE - Vernon Davis

Just keep in mind that Lynch has a back issue that flairs up unexpectedly, too. In fact last year, he wasn't on any injury list and was a game time scratch, which cost a lot of teams down the stretch. ---- QB - Brady WR - Wallace, Steve Johnson, D Alexander, Hilton, Givens RB - Sproles, Ridley, Bryce Brown, JBell, David Wilson TE - H Miller, Clark Def - Bengals K - Bailey Start 1-QB, 2-WR, 2-RB, 1-TE, 1-WR/RB/TE, 1-K, 1-D 12 Team PPR League 0.25 pts/completion 1 pt/rec 1 pt 10 yds rushing & receiving 6 pts TD, 1 pt 25 yds/ passing 4 pts passing TD, -2 fumble, -2 int
Clint_39079 Membership: Retired Joined: August 07 Total Posts: 267 Offline	Post Date: 09/21/12 19:16 Totally agree. I really try hard to make all my own decisions. I first try to collect as much info as possible. I do like to look at statistics and solicit others opinions to see if they have thought of something I havent, have a different take,etc Once I have all my data, I really try hard to make up my own mind. Thanks for your input. ---- QB - Brees, Cam RB - MJD, TRichardson, CJ2K, Ballard, Felix WR - Green, Jordy, Calvin, Cobb TE - Vernon Davis

He plays in the weak AFC West and even if OAK cannot get anything started on the groudn, he will factor in the passing game. Carson doesn't need to get the ball downfield, but just a swing pass out of the backfield. I never like trading for an injured player and Nicks foot might indeed end up being a year long problem. Not sure I will buy what the media of HC is saying of his foot. Look at Gates the last few years, the foot hampered him all year long. Not sure I want to see that out of Nicks if I traded for him. I would keep Colston and DMC and let the deal fall by the wayside. ---- Stephen http://www.the6thfloor.com/category/fantasy-football-2/ "Bringing confusion and contradiction to YOUR post!"
