Is now the time to trade Housh before Henry returns? Chime in if you are a Housh owner and what you would expect to get for him in return.
Do it at your own peril.Cincy's playoff schedule: STL, @SF, CLE
Housh has crazy value but not that much.Ive been considering offering him for Reggie Wayne and Kevin Jones.

Last year's stats don't suggest that.If you look at last year, in weeks 3-7 (4 games when Henry didn't play but Housh and CJ did), these were their stats (Targ--Rec--yds--TDs):Housh -- 44--30--352--4CJ ------ 40--19--247--0Housh clearly outperformed CJ, likely because CJ was getting the double coverage. But, when all 3 WR's played in weeks 8-17 (10 games), take a look at the stats:Housh -- 89--60--729--5CJ ------ 95--57--996--6CJ clearly received the benefit of Henry drawing attention. So, when (if) Henry returns, we'll likely see a shift in the current production from Housh to CJ.If anything, I think Housh will be more valuable after Henry returns.
No even Ladainian? Wow. I'd say I'd trade Housh for:LT2WestbrookAddaiMoss (Randy not Sandy)Only guys I would take in redraft are Moss and Edwards.
IIRC, i think 450 yards and 5 of those TDs for CJ came in 2 games. not saying, "if you take away that big play" type of thing; just saying that in 7 other weeks when CJ, TJ and henry were all there, CJs numbers were mediocre at best.BuckeyeArt said:Last year's stats don't suggest that.If you look at last year, in weeks 3-7 (4 games when Henry didn't play but Housh and CJ did), these were their stats (Targ--Rec--yds--TDs):Housh -- 44--30--352--4CJ ------ 40--19--247--0Housh clearly outperformed CJ, likely because CJ was getting the double coverage.

If you are in a PPR, Housh still holds his value, IMHO.so how about now? I didn't see the game and the targets still were good for TJ, but I'm concerned a bit. I just was offered Steve Smith and Westy for TJ and Bush in a PPR league. Seems about even but with Chris Henry back, I'm wondering if TJ's stats will continue to be less than his normal. Any homers chime in on what they saw?
In the "Buy Low Sell High" recap this week Bloom gives big props to anyone who unloaded Housh while his value was sky high. Was on the money with this hunch, just didn't move on it.And with this jewel of a thread I think I will take some time off until Sunday morning. Man this place is falling apart.
doh!!i traded housh and witten for reggie bush
