My Team -
Drew Brees,
Ahmad Bradshaw
Joseph Addai
Desean Jackson
Steve Johnson
Erick Decker
Fred Davis
49ers D/ST
Nick Folk
Rashard Mendenhall
Benjarvis Green Ellis
Steelers D/ST
Julio Jones
Mathew Stafford
Willis Mcgahee
Devery Henderson
So I am 0-4 and I think I need to do some trades. Im in a ESPN FFL with RB/WR Flex Option. One guy is offering me Gronkowski for Stafford. Everyone seems stingy with their trade offers.
Any help or advice is appreciated!

Since you have Brees I would make that trade.

You can't look at the points that a QB scores vs another position to determine a good trade, you have to look at the delta between what the QB that you are trading and what another QB would be getting.  We have someone in our league who has Newton and Rodgers and won't trade because he thinks he should get one of the top 5 RB's straight up and no one is willing to take that hit, so he will have to keep one of them on the bench each week.  He needs a RB and a WR and could get at least a starter for his team at either or maybe both if he were willing to lower his expectations.

Yeah O1P we have an owner who uses the same flawed logic with the same 2 QBs. Who do you grab off the wire as a back up for Brees?
