As for your point about Portis, let me ask you this, do you think the Jets or Raiders would give up Revis or Asomugha for Foster under any circumstance?
I don't get why you're asking this. That was exactly my point. Denver only trade Portis because they got a HoF CB in return. Houston is unlikely to get a HoF CB in return, so I doubt they're very likely to trade Foster.
Brandon Tate is going to skyrocket.
Not in my rankings. I was already ranking him on the assumption that Moss was gone after this season. New England sped up the timetable, but nothing's really changed. Tate's at a point in my rankings where the only way he's moving up is through the quality of his play.
Can you expand on that? I am on the "wait and see" side of the debate. I just don't see special talent when I watch him. I am no scout, and really only watch football because I enjoy it. But again, I don't see him as an elite talent. I think he could keep the Texans job for 4 years, but I could also see Tate or another back, giving him a run for his money, or forcing him into a RBBC.
Just wanting to know that you mean by real deal, and why you think that. Thanks.
I don't know how people can't see special talent when they watch Arian Foster. Maybe not Peterson/CJ3/MJD special, but the kid is a very good talent. I took the wait and see approach with him, but at this point, I've waited, I've seen, and I'm ready to commit. He's the guy in Houston long-term.

I have Gates/Finley/Hernandez on one of my dynasty teams and wonder which one should i deal.
I like all of them but moreso Gates right now with the way he is playing. Should i wait a week to see how
Aaron will be used now before shipping him off and what kind of value you think i could get for JF/AH.
I also noticed you already did your update on your rankings before the MOSS deal,
Where would you place Hernandez at for dynasty now that he is more involved in the offense.
Who you deal depends on your leaguemates. All three of those guys have serious hype trains. Deal whoever has the biggest hype train in your league. All it takes is one owner to overpay, so find out who is most eager to overpay, and whom he is most eager to overpay for, and sell.Also, Hernandez isn't going to move much. I'll bump him over Celek (who has the exact same value score as Hernandez), and I'll flirt with bumping him over Winslow (whose score is 4 points higher, and whom I am becoming progressively more and more concerned about), but there's not going to be a lot of movement. As with Tate, I was ranking Hernandez under the assumption that Moss was gone after this season. All Belichick did was speed up the timetable a little bit.
