I agree that he has been extremely difficult to move, especially in one of my 14-team PPRs. However, with Ryan Williams already rostered there and the 1.01 in the upcoming diluted rookie draft, i'd think it would be a pretty decent scenario if NE drafts either him or Leshoure...MTSkibum gave up Green-Ellis, BenJarvus NEP RB; Year 2011 Draft Pick 2.05Loose Circuits gave up Armstrong, Anthony WAS WR; Year 2011 Draft Pick 2.12I have made 40-50 trade offers this offseason trying to get rid of BJGE. He is a tough sell right now. People believe that New England is going to bring in a runningback to compete with him. The reason that I am scared of him, and want to move him is because he is not as good at breaking tackles, receiving, or blocking as Danny Woodhead.
It doesnt really matter if new england brings in a high round draft pick or not. Simply put BJGE is not a good runningback.The only obvious parallel in terms of a player that could potentially suffer a similar downturn in fortune would be the Patriots’ BenJarvus Green-Ellis. Much was made of New England’s Law Firm topping the 1,000 yard mark for the season, but he was running behind one of the league’s top three run-blocking units of 2010, and his ratio of forced missed tackles per attempt sits among the bottom 20 players in this study. If the Patriots experience a drop in run-blocking prowess in 2011 (very possible if they lose the services of Mankins in particular) then Green-Ellis might start to feel the eye of scrutiny a lot more.
I think it's close, whether or not I would do it if I were you depends on the rest of your roster.Would I getOR

I would want to see the rosters of the teams those picks correspond to and how the rest of the league looks. If I thought all of those picks would most likely end up in the 1.8~1.12 range, I would probably prefer Marshall & Benson. My guess is that the 1.11 & 1 of those 2012's were team B's which just got even better by acquiring the 2 vets. So the wild card is the quality of roster on the teams those other 2 2012's originally belonged to.I like Marshall a bunch, but give me the 4 1st rd picksTeam A gave up:Benson, Cedric CIN RBMarshall, Brandon MIA WR* 3.08, Rookie 2011Team B gave up:Armstrong, Anthony WAS WR* 1.11, Rookie 2011Year 2012 Round 1 Draft Pick from Year 2012 Round 1 Draft Pick from Year 2012 Round 1 Draft Pick from
If one of those two poorer teams ends up with a high pick I think it will have been worth it. I love marshall, but it's hard to argue with the knuckleheadness.The 2012 picks were from what I considered to be 1 top 4 team and 2 of the bottom 6 teams. None of the picks were from the team receiving Marshall and Benson.I can post all the rosters, but my take on it was worst case 1.5,1.6, and 1.12 for the 2012s. My team has quite a few picks this year also, if I draft well I could have a serious contender next year. I usually don't handle dynos this way so it will be interesting.

Is the difference between Brees and Rodgers really that much?Just traded Brees, Wells, and Starks for Rodgers, 1.6, and Jacoby Jones
Not even close. Risk on Collie is no worse than risk on any pick outside of the top 3. We know his upside - top 5 WR. Collie is worth 1.4+.1.08 > Collie.
Short term, I'd say no. But my team here is rebuilding, so I thought getting 5 years younger at QB might be worth it. I have the 1.3-1.7 plus 1.11 rookie picks, so figure I'll restock some RB depth.Is the difference between Brees and Rodgers really that much?Just traded Brees, Wells, and Starks for Rodgers, 1.6, and Jacoby Jones
guess I must like Starks & Wells more than you cause I love this rookie RB class, but still wouldn't do this deal. Then again I also think Jacoby Jones is on his last leg as well and basically worthlessShort term, I'd say no.

I would pay that for Rodgers all day every day. Although I do not see Wells or Starks ever becoming top 10 backs. The 1.6 should yield a good prospect and you get THE stud QB who is 5-6 years younger.Short term, I'd say no.

if I was you, I'd trade down to 1.03 if you can get value. Looks like your team is pretty good at WR not so good at RB.

Disagree. He had 3 concussions in the matter of 6 weeks. He makes of his living going across the middle into linebackers. Unless something changes with him, i can't see how he stays upright.Not even close. Risk on Collie is no worse than risk on any pick outside of the top 3. We know his upside - top 5 WR. Collie is worth 1.4+.1.08 > Collie.
Obviously you can spin it both ways. He had 1 very bad concussion and was rushed back to help with a playoff run, and that mistake by Indy led to 2 more concussions. Aaron Rodgers (most likely) had 3 concussions last year. At least 2. DeSean Jackson had almost as brutal a one as Collie had and didn't go over the middle the rest of the year because of it. No one is junking the value of those players. What will you get at 1.8? DeMarco Murray, Randall Cobb? Not going to overpay for Collie, but those are gambles, and if the gamble on Collie pays it's a high payout.'fruity pebbles said:Disagree. He had 3 concussions in the matter of 6 weeks.

That makes it even worse. They think the key to causing no long term damage is not subjecting a player to an additional concussion while stll recovering from the 1st. Collie most likely suffered from two while still recovering from the 1st one. I understand your point but he is literally probably one more bad hit from being all but done playing football. I'd rather take my chances on a mid round rookie in a good situation. Or better yet trade that pick for someone who i feel is going to be around long term.Obviously you can spin it both ways.

Yeah, it is.'loose circuits said:Is the difference between Brees and Rodgers really that much?Just traded Brees, Wells, and Starks for Rodgers, 1.6, and Jacoby Jones
I tend to agree with you and I was Team H (the team trading away Collie). I wasn't actively shopping him around and wasn't all that worried about the concussion issues (although of course it was in the back of my mind). I was approached by the other owner asking about Collie and that was the deal we worked out. I only made the deal because I wanted Bradford badly, and would not have traded Collie for the 1.8 straight up.ETA: Collie's market value is down however, as three owners in my league all made the same comment that 1.8 > Collie. I don't agree with that necessarily but those looking to buy or sell Collie should keep that in mind..Obviously you can spin it both ways.

I don't understand trading Jennings either. After the trade for Manningham the team was left with a WR of Branch/Manningham. I would've tried to move Blount for something of more value and kept Hightower/Wells as RB3/Flex and hope Wells figures it out. Hopefully the owner can move a RB for a WR, as this is a 3 WR PPR league.ETA: What made it worse imo was that Team S traded Greg Jennings and a 2011 third round pick to get Wells, Hightower and Blount a day or two before flipping Wells/Hightower for this.
