I would like to see you get a better wr than Jeffrey, although he is seviceable. Bell is not AP but can be serviceable. Sproles has underperfromed until last week and I really am not trusting him this year, but he is an upgrade to all or your rb's but AP. Can you get someone to give you a wr1 plus a rb1/2 for AP and upgrade the players in your package. If not, I really don't like the trade, but not sure with the rest of your roster and no ww pickups available, that you have a choice. None of the rb's on your roster other than AP are serviceable. Mcfadden is hurt and the coach annonced today that Jennings would still get his carries when if he returns. Mendy is a plodder and McGahee and Jacobs are even worse. Looks like you don't have a choice but to try to complete a trade and get the best players that you can for AP. ---- 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

Looks like your choices are really slim. Good luck. ---- 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

If the trade was for say, TY Hilton and Bernard/McCoy/Lacy etc., then I would CONSIDER it. What is your team record? If you need to swing for the fences, thats one thing, but try to counter for the partners best RB/WR and so on. I hope that helps.

I wouldn't do the trade for a few reason. The main one being AP is just AP. He is the offense. Bell isnt bad, but Pittsburgh is struggling and he really isn't used in the passing game. Sproles is nice but really hasn't been totally himself this year, especially since you're not in a PPR league, he is trying to sell him high after his big performance last week. As for Alshon, I love him, I have him too, but still not enough to give up one of the few legit "stud" backs left. AP got you to a point this season where you can make a playoff push, I think you stick with him. ---- 14 team PPR keeper league, year 3. QB: Cam Newton RB: Gio Bernard RB: Danny Woodhead WR: Calvin Johnson WR: Dez Bryant TE: Antonio Gates FLEX: Alshon Jeffrey Defense: St. Louis K: Robbie Gould BENCH: Ladarius Green, Steven Ridley , Nuk Hopkins, Chris ivory, BJGE, Charles clay

This is the only way he can improve his team and he needs some quality players at both rb and wr. I don't like giving up AP either, but can't see how sticking with him and not being able to make any ww moves helps him win. He can continue to run AP out and lose with the rest of his team each week or make the best deal that add 3 starters for AP which gives him a chance to win. Just my opinion. ---- 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
