Thanks for the help Jeff, since you answered this question I have made some changes and am on the verge of making a trade I would love to get you input on. Since Jul 7th I was able to get Derrick Mason for free from an owner who dumped him for nothing so that would be the veteran WR I needed.
But now I'm working out a trade for an RB. I have Jennings, Colston, Marshall, Derrick Mason, Crabtree, Jeremy Maclin and Jermaine Tate at WR but I have Steven Jackson, Cedric Benson, Lesean Mccoy, Fred Taylor, James Davis, Wynn at RB so I'm hurting for starting RB talent.
An owner offered me Jacobs for jennings
I was planning on trading one of my higher tier WRs for a Rb in the future but I was thinking of moving injury prone Colston after he has hopefully a great year this season. But this Jacobs trade still is interesting. Cause I think in the future I might be able to roll with Colston, Marshall, Mason, Crabtree, Maclin and be able to get a RB like Jacobs to help my starting Rbs (PPR we start QB/WR/WR/RB/RB/flex/flex/te/k/def).
I was thinking of asking for Jacobs and Michael bush for Jennings?
Here is his roster
QB
Kurt Warner
Carson Palmer
RB
Maurice Jones-Drew
Brandon Jacobs
Marion Barber III
Joseph Addai
Felix Jones
Rashadd Jennings
Michael Bush
Bernard Scott
Gartrell Johnson
Greg Jones
Danny Ware
Antonio Pittman
WR
Eddie royal
Bernard Berrian
Limas Sweed
Lavernous Coles
Patrick Crayton
Juaquin Iglesisas
TE
Jason Witten
Shawn Nelson

Jacksonville Jaguars

Should I wait and try and trade colston later because of his injury history. should I try and get bush and jacobs for jennings?

I like your team. At this point, I would keep your young WRs. Their values will only go up. The one thing I might do is nose around Muhammad, Driver, Hines Ward, etc to see if you can get a proven bench/flex player. You have a strong team. The only spot I see you could use is one or two veteran WRs to hold you for a year while your youngsters develop. You are in great shape. As the season progresses, I would hit the waiver wire for players with upside. With such a young team, I would evaluate all trades/waiver pickups on what you think the 2010 value will be. This is with the exception of the one or two vet WRs.
Other things to think about. I might look to see if I could get Josh Morgan or James Jones cheaply to pair with Crabtree and Jordy Nelson. Would be nice to hold the pair of young WRs.I would hold Garcon with the press he is getting.
You did a good job on the draft so now I would just try to build young depth. The team will be much better in 2010 than 2009.
Have a good one.

Thanks for answering some of my questions in the past, this is another one of the many great features here at FBG's.
Anyway, I just completed a dynasty draft and I'm having a little bit of drafters remorse.
The league is a 12 team PPR with 4 pts per passing TD (everything else is standard scoring). Start QB/WR/WR/RB/RB/Flex/Flex/TE/K/DEF so you can start up to 4 RB's or WR's.

When I took Greg Jennings over Randy Moss in the 2nd I made the decision to go young to build a good team for the future. I ended up picking Crabtree, McCoy, Maclin when my leaguemates were drafting productive veterans so my team for THIS year is not looking terribly competitively. I know I made the choice to go young and I have to live with it but my impatient FF soul is trying to get me to make a move for a productive RB for this year so I can make a push for the playoffs. I could be ok starting Crabtree as my 4th WR THIS year and maybe have a competitive year but looking at my RBs it's tough to have Benson as my 2nd RB who I have to start every week.
I tried moving Marshall for a RB but my leaguemates consider his value so low with all of his uncertainty that I have been turned down for every offer I present involving Marshall.
I have one owner who would possibly consider McCoy/Maclin for Chris Wells which makes be happy because I don't lose any starters and potentially gain one who is still a rookie.
Anyway, I was wondering if you had any advice on how to proceed. Who to target? Who to try and move? Whether or not I should just be patient and wait for my team's youth to hopefully come of age? Thanks in advance.
