Good time to trade for Smith? (1 Viewer)

My guess is you won't be trading Steve Smith this year...I'm a Steve Smith owner and would consider trading him for someone around the level of Harrison, Chambers or Driver (perhaps). An offer of Braylon Edwards would franly be laughable. Six games from Smith = 16 from Braylon

If it comes out that he has a partially torn hamstring (which is quickly becoming the local gossip) then if you get anything at this point would be gravy. If i had him i would look to move him for maybe A Bryant or R Williams. Thats just me though
i'm with you. i have him in both a keeper league and in a redraft league, and in either one i wouldn't consider letting him go for less than a Driver or thereabouts. then again, i have great depth at receiver, so a decent RB2 would get him off me, in all liklihood. as a 1-1 team in both leagues, and with decent point production each week, i'm not feeling desperate and would rather hang onto him for the playoffs.basically, if you're looking to steal him from someone, the 0-2 teams i think would be more apt to let him go. anyone who has him and looks like they're on their way to the playoffs without him, would only be looking forward to the roster boost once he comes back, even if it takes 4-6 more weeks. anyone looking forward to adding lee evans to their team may as well donate their team to the Make-a-Wish foundation and then stick needles in their sack. which, coincidentally, is the same thing the bills should do about JP Losman....I'm a Steve Smith owner and would consider trading him for someone around the level of Harrison, Chambers or Driver (perhaps).

Now that is an insane trade. Truly insane. Maroney will outperform smith by himselfTitusIII said:

He might have a tear? Is he even a guy you'd WANT to try and buy low on?
You're probably right, and I don't really want to. In my league, Smith will be a Restricted free agent next year and I'd like to resign him. If it turns out he's going to be gone for an extended period, I may trade him (and probably for less than Driver) but unless I'm loosing (I have a strong team even without Smith) I doubt I would move him.Dolfan said:

I think the other trade is solid too. Gore has been terrific and will be good all year if he stays healthy.

WR's with bad hammys are not good.Just ask the Reverend.

Think on it as long as you like. It'll take the other owner all of 2 seconds to reject that.You couldn't get Wayne straight up for Smith. Not in a million years at this point.You couldn't get Moss straight up for Colston. Unless you're dealing with a complete moron.People don't like getting these kinds of ripoff, insulting offers in their inbox. You should instead think about making some kind of reasonable off that wouldn't piss another owner off.GECKO said:

The same goes for those offering Terry Glenn for Randy Moss in a dynasty league

I traded for Smith in a 12 team keeper league last week
I gave up:
Muhsin Muhammed, Gado, and Kellen Winslow
I got:
Steve Smith
I picked up off of waivers: Ben Troupe, Rex Grossman(hahaha...he was still sitting there)

The way McNabb is playing, if he wanted to throw the ball to Jason Wood, I'd be trying to get Woody on my roster.

Sorry. :( I didn't mean to sound so harsh, just wanted you to see it from the offeree's likely viewpoint. THe goodwill you keep may be important down the line. Don't go back to lurking, keep posting!

There's no link because he only said there MIGHT be a tear. We'll have to wait on the 2nd opinion from Dr Andrews becoming public, before there's any links to anything.First I've heard of a tear right here, and there's no
I'd take Braylon for Smith in a heartbeat if I owned him.Mordraken said:I'm a Steve Smith owner and would consider trading him for someone around the level of Harrison, Chambers or Driver (perhaps). An offer of Braylon Edwards would franly be laughable. Six games from Smith = 16 from Braylon

I don't see why you would even consider this, unless you have some inside info on Smith and his hamsting/holdout/etc.I'd take Braylon for Smith in a heartbeat if I owned him.Mordraken said:I'm a Steve Smith owner and would consider trading him for someone around the level of Harrison, Chambers or Driver (perhaps).

I just offered Steve Smith and LaMont for Stallworth and Fred Taylor (his 3rd RB) - two "buy low's" for two "sell high's." No idea if the owner will laugh at me or jump on it.The way McNabb is playing, if he wanted to throw the ball to Jason Wood, I'd be trying to get Woody on my roster.

That is an interesting one. I have no faith in the Raiders at this point, but Stallworth (via McNabb) is looking very good (maybe top 10... like Chambers broke it last year). As bad as Lamont looks, there's no telling when Fred will pull something and be dtd for four weeks. It's certianly a much better offer than Braylon Edwards

We tend to get so wrapped up in "BUT ITS ______, HE WAS RANKED # _____!!!!!" This is as if any player ends up at the end of the season where we thought he would in August. Fine, keep all your draft day value picks. The guys that win championships seldom if ever have the roster you thought was unbeatable 5 minutes after the draft.I just offered Steve Smith and LaMont for Stallworth and Fred Taylor - two "buy low's" for two "sell high's."

Just traded him for reggie bush and vernon davis. (other owner has the moss brothers in a start 3wr) Fair offer. I'm not in love with Bush or his schedule but he has upside and I eliminate the risk. Look for smith to blow up this week knowing my luck.

For those that see the price too high...just wait till after this weekend when he doesn't play again. I bet some could get him for a marginal #3/#4 WR if the Smith owner is not deep at WR. He didn't need to be on draft day with that stud!
Not sure about this tear thing....but if Carolina starts out 0-3, and then play .500 ball....he could get shut down early if he even gets on the field again. Something to think about also.

I'm a Smith owner and I would do that trade in a heartbeat...Offered S.Smith and J.Lewis for C.Portis and H.Ward 2-days back, no word yet...

Do not trade Steve Smith - even if he misses this week, there are 13 more games left and the Panthers have been a slow starting team that finishes on fire - you will regret it

I own Smith and I would LOVE to trade him right now for Bolden...maybe I'll give that a try.

I'm thinking along the same lines as you. But we all know how bad hammys can linger. He's had problems with both, injuring one right after the other, which worries me. Especially when I'm starting off 0-2 and need WR help bad.Do not trade Steve Smith - even if he misses this week, there are 13 more games left and the Panthers have been a slow starting team that finishes on fire - you will regret it

By virtue of falling into my lap, I drafted Fitz in the 2nd and Boldin was by far the best option in the 3rd. I actually like Boldin better as he's all but unstoppable one on one and near the goal line , but the thought of giving Fitz is way too much. Sweating both last week when I crashed with 12 points from my WR corps was enough to spur me on.
