TRich owners..Redraft: Would Reggie Bush and Leshoure be a fair value offer if you were struggling at RB?
I wouldn't accept it if I were a Richardson owner. It's not a horrendous deal, but you would be getting the short end of the stick.

Why?
Because Bush and Leshoure are basically scrubs compared to Richardson. Neither one is a solid option for the rest of the season. Bush has had exactly one good week in five. Richardson has had good weeks every week except for week 1. Leshoure had one good week and it took 26 carries.Richardson's workload, on both running and passing downs, is only going to increase as the year goes on. There's a really good chance what we've seen thus far is his floor. You do not trade Richardson unless you are getting absolutely bowled over by an offer, because we really haven't seen what he can do yet. The Browns offense has no wide receivers and still they have been leaning heavily on the pass. The coach has openly stated they want Richardson in on all downs, and they want to give him more carries as well. He's been doing what he's been doing on about 20-22 touches per game. He could easily handle 27-30 touches a game. And if you've noticed, he gets stronger as the game wears on. His strength at his position is unparalleled in today's NFL. He wears defenses down, that's his game. His game is not running for big gains on the outside. His game is slamming into defenders and knocking them on their ###, again and again, until finally they don't even want to tackle him.If you want to get a sense of how strong he actually is, read up on his weight-lifting sessions at Bama. Even on a perennial national championship contender, his workouts were the stuff of legend. As the season wears on, he will only get better and better. There is no way you can say that about Reggie Bush or Mikel Leshoure.Richardson is a different breed. He's not Mark Ingram. He's not Adrian Peterson. He is the back they will be comparing all other backs to in a year.

Im on board. I just moved Bush and Martin for him in my redraft league. Surprised it got accepted actually.
 
Bush isn't Richardson, but he's far from a scrub. That's not a bad trade offer for redraft. Depending on depth, I might accept it.

Why would you want a RB2 and a shaky RB3 for a guy who could conceivably finish in the top 3 RBs? :confused:
Even in my league that is not PPR Bush ranks as RB8 on a PPG basis. He is a viable RB1 and that doesn't look like it will change. I'm not sure why you are short selling him so badly. If the league is a PPR, Bush's value goes up more.Bush is a quality RB1. I do like Richardson more but there is not the dispartiy you are claiming.

He's already been injured, his receptions have dropped off since week 2, his ypc has dropped steadily in the past three games. One player is trending up, the other is trending down.

Really looking forward to bumping this at the end of the year. Doubt all you want.

Bush has seen some reduction in touches due to the injury, no doubt. He has a bye the week after this week however and is supposed to be 100% after that bye. If anything I'd say Bush is a buy, not a sell. I think people are seeing the knee and worrying. Ironically, this is no different then the panic that evolved when Richardson missed preseason. Bush will be fine and fully healthy in 2 weeks assuming no other set backs.

A top 5 RB for an RB3 and a flex play? No thanks.
:lmao: at Bush being a RB3. He's currently #7 RB or higher in all 4 of leagues. Where have you been the past 2 years? Want to play in my leagues? Not taking anything away from Richardson, but many of you over-opinionated folks on here fall in love with names instead of production.

I am agree with you but I am a little less confident. I just can't forget how long this guy has been in the league. He's like the RB version of Brandon Lloyd. But I would buy him for the right price, just wouldn't consider the trade posted as I am not a believer in LeShoure at all, and IMO Rihardson >>>>>> Bush. I don't think we've really seen what he can do yet.

And don't forget our bet that you will vanish from FBG if Richardson has more fantasy points after his 8th game than Ingram has accumulated in his career to that point. 3 more games and Richardson only needs 14 more points total until you remove yourself. Get your negativity out of here and go pimp the turd, you may only have a few days left here. :lol:

I actually gave you kudos on T-Rich on the first page of this thread. I know of no bet. Ingram looks unsavory and struggles with his "use" in NO. Richardson is very good but I won't get carried away like many others. You are your own animal on this board. A total ##### but that's your shtick. I get that.

I like TRich as much as anyone but your last comment is either purposely over the top or you haven't been paying attention to the NFL long. He's the next big thing, but I'm not convinced that he'll ever be better than AD, LT, Emmitt, Fred Taylor, Edge... etc.

 
Bush isn't Richardson, but he's far from a scrub. That's not a bad trade offer for redraft. Depending on depth, I might accept it.
I'd need a better back than LeShoure, but Bush and a guy like Gore/Murray/Forte/Mathews would probably get it done if my RB2 sucked.

And I am convinced and have been for years. Differences make the world go round. Odds are in your favor.
 
He will be top 5 redraft back next year, based on his performance for this year, meaning, don't trade him unless you are desperate.

Bush + Mathews would PROBABLY get it done in a redraft for Trich? He's good, but that is absurd!!

Depends on format and starting lineup but figure Rich has outscored Bush by roughly 20:15 the last 4 weeks. on the season it's 17:14 (PPG). a 5 point difference per game is roughly the difference between Mathews and Daniel Thomas; really not hard to figure an owner might have a benched RB who combined with Rich outscores Bush and Mathews, or that the waiver wire could have a good player on it.

I wouldn't give that much up for him. Maybe its because I got him for a relatively good price, but I agree, that is absurd.

Holy way to point the stats in your favour by ignoring week 1, and not focusing on Mathews' last week and his potential going forward. No way a bench player +Trich outscores bush and mathews the rest of the year. I mean I know you're being a Trich homer since you own him, but that's just ridiculous. Trich for mathews straight up I could see, but you want to throw in another RB1/2 and you're saying you might take it then? I'd trade FOSTER for bush+mathews in a heartbeat.

We can agree to disagree but you're underestimating the depth some teams can get when they draft well.

Also, I am going with trends here, 4 games is a trend. Fwiw Im not big in Matthews, so that does play into this.

As a Foster owner no freaking way I'd move him for that.

Agreed. And as per the other posts - as a TRich owner - They would have to be desperate and I would have to upgrade at multiple other positions.

Most leagues can flex a rb though, so I think the upgrade of bush over his 3rd best rb is better then the downgrade of trich to mathews.

Since you're discussing T-Rich trades, I just traded Andre Johnson, Dex Bryant, and Reggie Bush for T-Rich and Jordy Nelson in a dynasty league.
You dog!Nice work.
Yeah, I feel lucky. This owner loves to trade because people in my league seldom makes trades.
 
Richardson is a different breed. He's not Mark Ingram. He's not Adrian Peterson. He is the back they will be comparing all other backs to in a year.
:o He can't do/be that if he's not on the field.14 carries for 37 yards not mega star status.

Per Rotoworld:

Trent Richardson has been diagnosed with a right rib cartilage injury, and is day-to-day.

Richardson's injury is extremely painful, but it sounds like he'll be ready to suit up against the Colts. How effective he'll be is the question. Richardson's status will be updated on Wednesday, where he'll likely either be limited or a no-show at Browns practice.

 
Richardson is a different breed. He's not Mark Ingram. He's not Adrian Peterson. He is the back they will be comparing all other backs to in a year.
:o He can't do/be that if he's not on the field.

14 carries for 37 yards not mega star status.
Incomplete stat line. He went out with an injury. If he had a chance to run out the clock and wear down the defense, his YPC could have been much different.

would he be the 1st megastar to leave a game with an injury while posting meh stats in that game?
Dunno. Name for me the RB's who were deemed Megastars after their 2nd game in the NFL and then I can look it up.I'm not even sure what Megastar means and what our expections should be. :shrug:

Is Foster a Megastar? If so, look at 2010 week 5. First 4 weeks he was great, week 5: 11 carries, 25 yards. 2 catches, 2 yards. No injury, so it was a legit bad game. ALL stars have crappy games...

Foster was 17 for 29 last night, so I guess he's not a mega star either?
Got it done from the 1!Obviously I'm just stirring the pot here. I like him a lot too, and his future looks bright if he escapes injuries. I'm just not ready to crownhisass yet.
