Middle Age RB's (1 Viewer)

[Go deep]

Totally agree, had i taken the best offer i could have, i would have traded him long before i did. I waited until i got what i beleived to be fair value. I should point out the upgrade i got at WR was Lee Evans to Greg Jennings.

Well, that changes the equation radically, although I think it's a bit silly to call a move from Evans to Jennings an "upgrade at WR". In the most recent staff dynasty rankings, Evans is WR50 on average and Jennings is WR7- that's a 43 slot jump. That trade was 1.04, 1.06, and Jennings for SJax and parts, which is great value to get in return. I love Jackson and am lower on Jennings than most, but even I think the other guy overpaid.

Ive made so many trades in that league(and others) recently i didnt remember the exact details. It was actually Steven Jackson, Michael Bush, Lee Evans, and Kellen Winslow for 1.04, 1.06, 3.04, 4.06, Greg Jennings and D'qwell Jackson.I like Steven Jackson as much as the next guy, but i am also the type of guy who trades middle aged RB's before their value falls off the cliff. Jackson happens to be the prime example of that type of guy. Even though i am a contender in this league, and he might help me in the immediate future, i would rather take my chances on a couple early picks. If one of Spliiler or Ben Tate(the two guys i drafted) turn out to be a top 10-15 back, then this trade works out for me unless Jackson goes on to have 3-4 great seasons. I just dont see that happening with Jackson, i dont put much stock into "injury proness" but herniated disks scare me. Especially for a RB who hasnt played a full season in a while and is coming off a 3 TD season.
