I have at QB: Phil Rivers Big Ben My WRs are: V. Jackson Santana Moss Ted Ginn Bernard Berrian Jacoby Jones I put both QBs on the block looking for either a WR or RB. I just got offered DeSean Jackson for Big Ben. They both have about 100 fantasy points so far on the year. Should I take it, or look for something more? He has McNabb at QB and Eli on the bench. I feel like I should take it as Jackson instantly becomes one of my regulars, while Ben (or Rivers) don't help me much from the bench.
Try to pry one of his backup QB's off of you. Ben for Jackson/Backup QB is the way to go. Drop one of the WR Scrubs to make room. Try to get Mcnabb to match up with Jackson for double points.
I wouldn't do it straight up. In my league Rothlesberger has 155.0 pts and DeSean Jackson has 104.50 pts. To me that 50 pts is fairly significant. I would wait for a better offer. But that's me.
I think you should do the deal. Big Ben is not a every week starter while Rivers probably is. The risk with Jackson is he runs alot of deep rooutes and won't get alot od TD's other than those. I would see if I could not get a Back-up QB from him and than throw in Ted Ginn in your deal as well
Big Ben and Jackson I said in my league both have 100 fantasy pts (103.5 vs 100.5). 3 fantasy pts is not significant to me, especially since I only lose 7 fantasy points on the season by going with Rivers. Jackson had significantly more points than any WR on my team not named Vincent. It's not like I can start 2 QBs in a week, but I can start 3 WRs.
I for SURE take that trade...and I wouldn't think twice about it. Comparing points overall (150-104) is comparing to apples to oranges. Of COURSE Big Ben puts up more points..he's a QB. DeSean is a top 10-15 WR right now in most league formats. With Rivers and a healthy FA I take that trade and don't look back.
