Believe it or not..............Steve Slaton.
I just offerred Larry Johnson straight up yesterday for him, right about the same time the assault news broke on Johnson. I doubt this deal gets done now. I also have two other offers in place for Slaton (WR & 3rd Rnd '09 or 2WR's & 5th Rnd '09.) Prying Slaton away of his owner will be tough.

My target is Drew Brees. I just made an offer Warner/Marshall for Brees/Smith (CAR).
I don't want to let Marshall go but Brees is too tempting and Smith IMHO isn't that big of a downgrade in PPR.

which is why, also given Warners injury history, you'll have a hard time getting this one through unless the other owner is a guppy

I wouldn't call an owner a "guppy" for accepting that trade. To tell you the truth, I would rather have the Warner/Marshall side of that, but that's just based on personal preference.

this might be the time to get Addai.

I think Smith is an even bigger downgrade in PPR.

I'm targeting:
Westbrook (get while his value is low and owners are fed up)
SJax (just because I am a firm believer in talent over situation)
Favre (if you need a QB)
Braylon (some owners were waiting for a big game to sell)

We've been talking and he's fixated on getting Marshall. I made the offer, I think the guppy will

Thats what I was thinking but with that injury...will it linger?

Really now? All TDs are worth 6pts and turnovers are -3. Do you still feel the same now?
Deuce'sWild

He has been very mediocre this year so far, and is injured...so the time is now to get him. I offered J. Stewart and Boldin for Addai and Burress in redraft league.That playoff schedule for Addai is too juicy to pass up.Maven said:

I just traded for S. Jackson as I like his playoff schedule alot. He can be had pretty cheaply given that 4 of his first 5 games were against top run defenses (Philly, NYG, Buff, and Wash) and StL is a mess. Jackson gets the touches regardless of the situation, so I think you can get him for the value of a #10-12 RB and think he'll perform like a #6-8 RB (and probably a top 5 RB in the playoffs: @AZ, Sea, SF).
As always, just my opinion.

In ppr, I'd say that trade is pretty even. Here are some per game stats up to now.SSmith: 7.3 catch per game, .25 td, 0 turnovers, 93.5 ypgthe spanker said:
BMarsh: 8.6 catch pg, .6 td, .4 to, 104.2 ypg
Brees: 332.1 ypg, 2 tdpg, 1.1 to pg
Warner: 284.6 ypg, 2 tdpg, 1.5 to pg

Yeah, I do. If injury history is a prerequisite for future injuries, then Smith is in just as much danger as Warner. I think Brees > Warner, but Marshall >> Smith.the spanker said:

In PPR? Steve Smith? Why do you feel that way?seatownfavorite said:

No sorries, we are talking about targets to acquire here and where the value lies. Good assessment. Didn't think about it that way but Warner's perchant for turnovers gives the advantage to the Brees/Smith deal IMHO. Turnovers hurt in this league.

For weeks 14-16...
QB's to trade for:
JT O'Sullivan - NYJ, MIA, and STL - Ranked 25, 22, and 29 vs FF QB's
Trent Edwards (if he comes back strong) - MIA, NYJ, and DEN - Ranked 22, 25, and 26 vs FF QB's
Other teams with nice schedules are KC, MIN, NE, OAK, SEA, STL, but I am just not comfortable with the QB situations. I guess Marc Bulger would be a nice risk/reward QB if you are searching for options. Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, and Peyton Manning all have nice schedules, but would very very expensive to acquire at this point.
QB's to trade away:
Carson Palmer/Ryan Fitzpatrick - Anyone still holding onto hope of a Palmer return, give it up. Cin faces IND, WAS, and CLE, who are ranked 2, 5, and 3 (shocking, huh?).
Derek Anderson - Trade him now, after his nice game, or wait until after week 12 vs HOU. Either way, he gets TEN, PHI, and CIN (1, 7, and 11) for your playoffs.
Ben Roethlisberger - DAL, BAL, TEN - Doesn't get much tougher than this.
Jason Campbell - BAL, CIN, PHI - No thank you.
Donovan McNabb - NYG, CLE, WAS - He's good enough to score well vs anyone, but do you trust him not to get hurt before then?
Eli Manning - PHI, DAL, CAR - Not the teams I'd want to face.

On QBs, Hasselbeck is also a good target (if he gets healthy) as he has a nice schedule and can be had for peanuts.

I'd have to crunch the numbers with the -3 TOs, but I have Warner/Marshall and I wouldn't trade for Brees and Smith. It's almost dead even, why trade at that point?the spanker said:

Footballguy
Because my WRs are strong with AJ, Boldin, Cotch and Holt and I get more stablity with Brees as my QB. At least that's the way I feel but I'm always looking for a different perspective.

Agreed, he's on the waiver wire in my league.

I don't know. Maybe because Brandon Marshall leads the league in receptions and targets, those are good indicators.

I wouldn't go trading for a QB #2 (Edwards/JTO) unless my QB #1 got injured.
Dirty Weasel
Footballguy
Depends on what you are trading to get them. I'm not suggesting you trade away Brees because Edwards has a slightly better schedule, nor am I suggesting you start them over a stud with a worse matchup. Thse are simply 2 guys with nice FF playoff schedules that would be nice to have as part of your QB corps.

I think Holmes is due for a hot streak and that his value is too low, even in dynasty leagues. But his playoff schedule is brutal.
I think the ultimate playoff buy is Lynch. MIA/NYJ/DEN. And in redraft you could probably get him for a mediocre RB like TJ or Jacobs and a #2 WR.

MIA/NYJ/DEN is actually a brutal playoff schedule. Who woulda figured?

ultimate buy????? lynch???.. miami #2 vs run... jets #3 vs run... yikes ..why do youl ike that???
gonzobill5
Footballguy
Disagree. I know the Jets have been solid thus far but I don't expect it to continue. Can anyone give a good reason why the Jets have been good against the run? They were 29th last year. What's changed? Don't you think that game against Miami in week 1, then cincy and Arizona when they got up big have anything to do with it?Suffice it to say, I agree about Lynch.

I am making offers to Boldin and Fitzgerald owners. If they have a QB problem, you can offer QB+Moss (or another not-totally-worthless underachiever) and pick up a TD machine.
I also like Rivers, whose 13/14/15 is ATL, OAK, @KC... he is a STRAIGHT CASH HOMEY in home games.

Dallas has no secondary. Baltimore just got lit up by INDY.

I think when Addai comes back, they will limit his carries to the extent that Rhodes will get 10+touches per game. Addai will be needed in the playoffs and I think theColts play it smart and don't overwork him.Maven said:

The Jets picked up a run-stuffer nose tackle this year, and that's all it takes. IIRC, they got one of the guys from Jacksonville. So yes, they're for real as run stuffers.gonzobill5 said:
