What would it take to get him off your roster?
I would give Brees for Turner provided I had a decent back-up.In my case, he's my #2 RB, with CHris Johnson waiting at #3.I need a better QB or a starting WR. It's probably too much to ask for Brees, bit that's the only QB I'd consider.Otherwise I need a decent WR. Maybe I'm asking too much, but at this point he IS the #1 RB in the NFL.
Let's see:1) It was a Falcons single-game recordI dealt Turner for Peyton Manning in one league, in large part because the other guy had Rivers behind Manning.
Very, VERY happy with that kind of return. I think Turner will be very good this year, but it wouldn't surprise me if week 1 wasn't his best of the year.
Dont go out on that limb too much.I dealt Turner for Peyton Manning in one league, in large part because the other guy had Rivers behind Manning.

I just turned this offer down in one of my PPR leagues. I countered with James for Housh, and the Housh owner bit. I felt that was pretty even. Turner's upside made it too hard for me to trade him for a Bengal.Just got offered Housh for Turner. Not sure I can pull the trigger given how poor Cincy looked and how great Turner looked.??????
Hard to say....I don't know who is on your team?What would it take to get him off your roster?

Wrong attitude....Should always being willing to sell....but the price needs to right....DittoNot selling
Nice offer. The other guy gets downgraded at every position. I'm sure he'll jump on that "accept" button right away.I just offered T. Edwards, Turner and S. Holmes for Rivers, Chris Johnson and B. Marshall.![]()
He did most of his damage in the first quarter. Atlanta is a run-first team, especially with Ryan under center. The problem with the sizable lead was a healthy dose of Jerious Norwood late in the game. Didn't like seeing that one bit, even though it was expected. Maybe I was just hoping they were lying about getting Norwood more involved. Then again, they won't be playing the Lions every week.Wow. Brees for Turner? I liked Turner a lot but couldn't get him. But I think people are overreacting. Week 1 was probably one of the very few games this season where Atlanta will have sizable first half lead. More often than not they will be trailing in games thus limiting Turner's opportunities. I think he finishes as in the RB8-12 range.
Apprently this requires being specific. If I were offered AP, LT, Addai, Edwards, etc. for him sure. But it's not likely you can land a top 10-12 overall player for him. So I'm holding him as I think he'll be a top 10-12 overall player going forward and into 2009.So, in other words, I'm not selling him.Wrong attitude....Should always being willing to sell....but the price needs to right....DittoNot selling
I would sell him for Westbrook. That's it.Understand that he may have peaked, but right now, he's a lottery ticket. You don't give away lottery tickets.Apprently this requires being specific.

I don't see Turner as a "downgrade" from Johnson, especially in a redraft.Nice offer. The other guy gets downgraded at every position. I'm sure he'll jump on that "accept" button right away.I just offered T. Edwards, Turner and S. Holmes for Rivers, Chris Johnson and B. Marshall.![]()
I wish I knew someone who would dump him for Edwards.Apprently this requires being specific. If I were offered AP, LT, Addai, Edwards, etc. for him sure.

Yeah! And how many touchdown passes did he throw? Pffft. Michael Turner sucks!How many receptions and receiving yards did he have against the Lions.
That's what I was thinking. Perceived redraft value of Turner is much higher than Johnson outside of this forum.eta: and if you add up FBG's top 250 forward trade values I lose in the deal.I don't see Turner as a "downgrade" from Johnson, especially in a redraft.Nice offer. The other guy gets downgraded at every position. I'm sure he'll jump on that "accept" button right away.I just offered T. Edwards, Turner and S. Holmes for Rivers, Chris Johnson and B. Marshall.

I realize you didn't mean this, but what you said implies you believe Turner will have better games ahead.I dealt Turner for Peyton Manning in one league, in large part because the other guy had Rivers behind Manning.

I offer Turner for Portis in PPR and got rejectedWould anyone move Portis to acquire Turner in a dynasty? (PPR)
I have no doubt this time next week Turner is going to be worth about 60% of what he is now.
I would be calling the commish as I'm hitting the accept button to get it pushed through right away.AnonymousBob said:I was offered SJax...and turned it down.
