I traded him AWAY. I have Portis and Barber as my starting RB's, and Hightower and Fargas as back-ups. I traded him straight up for Roddy White to round out my WR corps.I agree his schedule is favorable, but I think that his production isn't going to stay where it was. He still splits carries with Ricky, and I just think the Wild-Cat offense has lost some of its surprise and effectiveness since teams can prep for it more now.
I own Moss in one league and Brown in the other. I am
that you traded away Moss for Brown. I agree that Brown is a buy low candidate but I think you could've got more for Moss based on name and potential. NE has a cake walk schedule and Cassel has been targeting Moss more and more. I would have at least tried to sell Moss high.
I've been considering offering Barber for Brown/Boldin. But I'm carrying Portis, CJ3, T. Jones and FatWhale also at RB and am a bit thin behind Calvin at WR. Not sure if it's a great deal or will work, but I like Brown's schedule in the playoffs and Barber's is tough.Rounders said:
Funny. That's the main reason I'm liking Ronnie more. The best thing that could happen to him is for Pennington to keep winning games against defenses willing to stack the box. These things ebb and flow and a balanced attack is never a bad thing.
My other Wides are AJ & Brandon. When I traded LJ away for Moss in week 3 everyone said I was crazy, I am hoping it was the right time to move for Ronnie.I own Moss in one league and Brown in the other.

I'm not a fan of Addai (although I have Rhodes) and Ronnie is gold in PPR. With Gore and Ronnie I like my chances of winning at RB each week while Addai adds instability. Eddie Royal is making this a hard one to turn away.
I must be missing something... Ronnie has been a decent back this year. Nothing spectacular outside of the wildcat game against NE. I have Ronnie and Ricky in one league and I wouldn't consider him gold. Plus, just when we thought Ricky disappeared, he came back last week with a decent amount of carries. It doesn't look like Ricky is going away anytime soon. As for LT, this is the perfect time to buy. In fact, I am going to offer the LT owner Fitz straight up. LT's schedule (like Ronnie's) is very nice down the stretch. Plus, LT showed his explosiveness against NO and should be 100% after the bye.in dynasty took ronnie/crotchery for LT a couple weeks ago.now starting to get sellers remorse.
Please explain. In seven games R.B. has 12 receptions and 113 yards and zero TDs. Gold? This is not 2007. Fins coaching staff, QB, receivers, TE, back-up RBs, and o-line have all changed since last year. So far, RB is far better in std. formats than PPR leagues.

i agree. i might have made a mistake. probably should have kept LT, but i really needed some WR. probably could have gotten more than brown/crotchery.I must be missing something...

Yes, meaning it's more of a RBBC instead of a number 1 back. I am not saying that Ronnie doesn't have value but to trade away the likes of LT or Moss for him is a little7 carries for 16 yards is decent amount of carries?
IMO.
Man.. that really suprises me.. but then again, if I hadn't moved on Brown I'm not sure if any others in my league would have. Maybe you could shop him after this week, or keep him for the playoffs.I own Brown & have had no offers for him
Lately I have not either. I did a while back when he was doing better.I got a feeling I'd below balled anyway, I was back when I was getting the offers as well.I own Brown & have had no offers for him
I have Brown in a dynasty and I probably wouldn't trade Brown away for Smith. It's pretty fair and rosters and need would probably matter but RB's are too hard to come by in a dynasty. Unless you have a high draft pick, it would be hard to replace Brown.The RBBC does not bother me in a dynasty. Williams continues to become less of a factor this year and that trend will only continue as they get older.
My initial thought was that I would take Smith for Brown in a dynasty league, but when I thought about it more I reasoned that if I were in a start up dynasty league right now I think Brown might be a late first/early second round pick. Smith would likely be a late second.Not sure if that would hold true because start up dyanasty leagues have a lot of fluctuation in perceived values from league to league, owner to owner - but for me personally, I am thinking that Brown holds a little more value.FWIW, I roster both players in my league - so no bias.
That's basically the situation I'm in. Other team has Portis, ADP, Forte, and Brown. Talk about stacked. He has decent WRs in TO, Ward, Berrian, and Evans but he sounds interested in Smith.I offered Smith for Brown and TO, he countered with just Brown, I countered with Forte for Smith which I'm sure he'll nix. I'll just go with Smith for Brown I guess. Sorry for all the detail, kind of getting into AC material here.
Try to get Evans and Brown. I like Evans going forwward better than TO anyway
Ended up giving Smith and Mewelde Moore for Brown and Berrian.
I still can't get my head around that one.
Yea that sounds a little nuts. Portis seems to be one of those guys that is schedule proof. He will deliver against anyone. On paper his schedule doesn't look the best though (@BAL, @CIN, PHI)The Portis owner is our keeper league traded Portis for Brown and McAllister.
Yeah, he justified it by comparing playoff schedules and he also thought Portis would break down considering he touched the ball 372 times last year and is on pace for a similar load this year. The guy is starting to get dinged, but I can't see how you can give up one of the few RB's left in the league that don't share carries. RBBC is rampant in the NFL.Yea that sounds a little nuts.

7 carries for 16 yards is decent amount of carries?
