Any Willie Parker trades today in your leagues? (1 Viewer)

Have any of you traded or traded for Willie Parker today, or seen someone else do it, and if so what did Willie Parker go for? Post if you've seen any Willie Parker trades.
Foster, De'shaun CAR RBJohnson, Andre HOU WR

Parker, Willie PIT RB

Williamson, Troy MIN WR

Guy getting Parker is a big Steeler fan. Both are so happy, I told them to get a room and please leave me alone.
Damn, AJ isn't worth crap anymore.

What kind of leagues are you in where GM's are trading after one week? Barring a Javon Walker injury type of need what kind of guppie's panic that much?
 
A guy in my league only has Alexander, Staley, and Shipp as RB's.  I'm thinking of offering him K Jones & Parker for S.  Alexander AFTER this weekends games.  I want to see how Jones performs.  I also have Dillon, LJ, & Chester Taylor as RBs so I can still start a 3rd RB as my flex position as long as LJ stays out of jail.  Does this look like  a fair trade on my part?  I'm thinking if I offer it he jumps on it since hes low at RB and a Lions homer.
So you're going to wait and see if KJ and FWP suck and then trade them for Alexander?
Its not that I'm waiting to see if they suck. I'm just waiting to see if KJ plays better. If he can do well against a decent Chicago D and FWP has a good game vs Houston, I may explore other trade options with other teams. Just evaluating what my "stock" is really worth here more or less before making a hasty trade.
 
I was just offered mike anderson, tatum bell and braylon edwards for fwp and marion barber. I have cumart, LT2 and dunn at rb. wayne and kennison at wr. hmm...i didn't really expect this decent of an offer. I will prawly wait and let fwp go off again next and crank up the price. :boxing:

 
I'm RB heavy in a 12-owner league with PPR worth .67 per reception.

Dom Davis

Brian Westbrook

Lamont Jordan

Mike Anderson

Willie Parker

With FWP's hot start, I'm willing to consider trading away any one of them for the right price. Willie is looking more and more like one of those I'd most like to avoid trading away.

 
I cant believe the bendovers I have seen herePittsburgh RB's have included Barry Foster, Bam Morris etc that turned out to be crap in dynasty leagues in the end,.

 
A similar situation to this, is the Rudi Johnson one. 2 years ago Rudi was playing well over an established injured starter. Rudi did not have the pedigree of being a high draft pick.The evaluation we had to make was whether Rudi was talented enough to displace full time the established starter in Dillon. We all know how it turned out. Note: there were attitude circumstances which helped make it happen in Cinci, which there are not in Philly. BTW: I had Rudi, and I prided myself for trading him high for a 1st round pick after 3 games as a starter...., I felt good then....I felt good after Perry was drafted, but today the first round pick isn't worth crap compared to a starting NFL RB. If you think Fast Willie could (not will) keep the job, hold onto to him at all costs, b/c chances like these don't come along often.

FWP's value will never be higher than it is right now. This is the exact same situation with Griffin last year. I'm a huge KJ fan, but I would take the trade in an instant with your depth at RB.

Since when does a trade mean someone's in a panic?

Apparently he's in a more active league than yours. Hooray for you in a "Shark" league where no one ever trades with each other and owners just sit on their benched talent. :rolleyes:
 
You think Parker will remain the starter for the year?

If so, isn't he gonna be on a very short leash?

What future do you see for Parker with Staley still in Pitt?
This is the key. He's only worth something if he remains the starter. No one knows this yet.He ran like a madman vs a team that doesn't have the best D in the league.

Any type of trade now is pure speculation.

 
Another owner offered Andre Johnson for FWP. I think Houston's passing game sucks even though they will have to try to play catch up every week, so I am going to hold out for more. I'm trying to get Larry Fitzgerald from that some owner, instead of AJ.Hopefully, FWP has another big week.BTW, no points per reception in our league and I already have Tomlinson and Alexander (auction league - redraft)

 
Just traded D. Foster & Boldin for W. Parker and JJ Arrington. Leaves me weak at WR for now but gives me flexibility to deal RBs later.

 
Willie Parker owner in my league put him on the trade block requesting WRs in return. I offered Chris Chambers and he told me that it was the best offer he has received but that he wanted to hold off until after this week. I would have started Parker this week as I am thin at RB with LT, Bell/Anderson, Barlow and William Green as my only running backs. I am tempted to offer Michael Clayton but haven't decided if I am going to do it.

 
In a ppr league, I just got offered CPepp and Droughns for Holt and Parker...

...still mulling it over.
Let me get this straight, you would give up Parker AND Torry Holt for Culpepper and Droughns. That is a very bad trade, and one you would likely regret for quite a long time....not just this year, but perhaps as long as you play fantasy football.Droughns in a Browns uniform is not someone you should covet....Pepper is very good, but you are giving up way too much in this scenario.

 
FWP, Jerry Porter, C. Benson for Randy Moss andI turned it down :bag: Keeper League where you cant keep players drafted in the first 2 rounds and If you keep a player, you must give up a pick two rounds up from where the player was drafted.Drafted Willie with a 17th Rounder :ph34r:

 
I don't have a trade offer yet, however I just picked him up in a Blind Bid waiver process. Everyone in my league had a shot at him in the Blind bid, yet only 2 others even bid for him. This was a free pick up no drop required, only Waiver dollars. I am now very deep at RB and picked him up with a future trade in mind, since most in my league don't see him as a long term starter, I will probably trade, Tiki, Ahman, or Priest for a Top Tier WR. Is FWP's value that erratic?

 
In my league, I was offered Mewelde Moore for Isaac Bruce (I own Bennett and Duce). I counter-offered with Bruce for FWP and was turned down cold even though he is starting Lelie and Andre Johnson every week.I guess the moral to this thread is don't trade FWP for a mid-level WR.

 
I traded Parker for Joe Horn straight up. I wasn't that thin at WR, but I have depth at RB. He's still an unknown so I'm content. I can't believe someone got HOLT for him straight up. GREAT trade.

 
about reply for if cowher will play the hot hand at rb...see T.Maddox/B.Roethlisberger last year: :P i just traded mcnair (i have culpepper, t.green, t.rattay, and just picked up brunell) and got parker straight up. :D

 
That was an excellent trade (for you). The other guy must have been a dummy or was desperate. Is this a start 2 QB league?

 
Trade just went through.

I gave up FWP and J.Porter and got DJax and now have an open roster spot.

Ok, I'll bite!I was offered Moss and Crumpler for Michael Jenkins, Parker and my first round pick next year.I have LT, Portis, and Chad Johnson. We keep two players each year a prospect that counts as our last pick in the draft.I don like the thought of sacrificing next year for this one, so I am still considering.

the other guy (caleb) has a need for a QB pretty bad, i think he has carr and brooks :bag:

i would pick up brandon lloydyou are set at RB but wr's are lacking, lloyd is a legit #1 reciever there so you cant beat that.

 
I just traded FWP™ and Jimmy Smith for Marvin Harrion and Chad Johnson. :thumbup:
are you serious? thats the equivalent to trading a '92 Ford Tempo for a '06 Mercedes CLK. :o

"im not even mad, thats amazing how did you do that?"

good trade.

In a league I run (12 teams, start any combination or RBs/WRs adding to 5) Team A traded FWP and Lamont Jordan for Domanick Davis and Travis Henry.

 
In a contract league with 26 players and a 200 cap, I traded away Mike Williams @ 11 million. I received Willie Parker @ 3.1 million in return. Both are signed for 4 years.

i dont like that trade at allhouston's offense is not good at all right now, henry looked TERRIBLE vs. pittsburgh

i know its only week 1 but ... i like parker and jordan better than the latter. :yucky:

I agree (I wasn't involved in the trade). But, as with all trades, time will tell.

Agreed...tentitavely. All these trade evaluations are just that.
 
I was offered R.Wayne and M.Bennett for K.Jones. :o In the comments section he said he would take either Dillon or FWP instead if i liked. :o :unsure: . I already have Horn, DJax, R.Smith and L.Evans, the above listed backs are all i have on roster. I came to the conclusion that Wayne did not offer me much more differential compared to what I already have at WR, M.Bennett and the MIN situation just scares me to death, especially with "IDIOT BOY" Tice calling the shots. :thumbdown: I may regret my decision but i AGONIZINGLY declined. :loco: Isn't this a great game? Decisions? Decisions? P.S. Not a PPR league. 12 Team Re-Draft
