Ok, I normally would not even consider such a trade. But my running back corp is horrible. Terrible. Not even worth looking at.
And I know Best is just a rookie.
My team:
QBS - Tony Romo, Chad Henne
WRs - Wayne, Nicks, Gaffney, Knox, Britt, Hartline
RBs - Chris Johnson, CJ spiller (I know), Michael Bush (i'm waiting), Donald Brown
TE - Witten, Carlson
K - Carpenter
DEF - Cincy, Carolina (had to bench Cincy this week against NE, so picked up CAR, that moved saved my hiney this week)
So as you see, I got 2 points from Spiller this week. I need an RB badly. I have a waiver request in, Hartline for Peyton Hillis. I think I'll stick with that if it goes through. But if it doesn't (I'm 2nd to last on waiver) do I make the trade? Or stick with wayne and nicks, and roll the dice on RBs?

12 teams. He was drafted. I checked as soon as I saw grant being helped off the field.
Thanks for putting me in my place. But what do I do for RB. It's pathetic my RBs. Hope bush comes back and takes over, or hope CJ spiller gets it going? Damn it's going to be a long season. -
For Reggie Wayne you should be able to do better than Jahvid Best.

No way...Peyton just threw for 433 yards and 3 TDs...need a smack in the face or what? :)

Personally, I think Best is being underrated. He's going to get the bulk of the carries, and he can break a big run at any time. The Lions were second in the NFC last season in runs of 4+, but one of the worst in runs of 20+. So that OL can make some holes for him.
Only thing that worries me is Stafford's injury.
I'd try offering Wayne for Best and a WR2. But I do appear to be higher on Best than most, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. -
i have best on my team, so you think its not the time to hit panic mode yet ? with only 20 rushing yards on 11 carries and no stafford ?

stay away from steven jackson though, he already banged his knee after week 1 and had an MRI on it, apparently he is alright, but on MFL he is already listed as Q for Week 2

No.
I've watched that entire game, and the Bears front-7 was very good. Urlacher played like he's capable of. That defensive front is going to be tough for anyone to run against.
If Best struggles through week 3-4, then I'd get worried. But I'm not worried about his performance against Chicago. -
You need to jump on the S Jax and S Smith for Wayne trade before your buddy sobers up. That is a great trade for you, imo.
-
Actually if I'm a Best owner I'm probably trying to sell high. I don't see him having another 40 point game any time soon.TheAnswer385 likes this.

He will have a few this year. If because of nothing else, Shaun Hill will checkdown to him with regularity. Guy is a beast with the ball in his hands.
-
best could be the roty. i still dont see why you would make that trade. then you would be hurting very badly at wr.
-
Why on Earth did you not take SJax/Steve Smith for Wayne???
-
His little injury kind of bugged me, and Steve Smith of the Giants is not, IMO, a good #1. And that would leave me with #1 and #2 being Nicks, and Smith, both of the giants. What do I do during the bye week? And what do I do when Manning has a crappy day. Not good for diversification :D
