Portis or Rudi would have to be a part of the deal. And a strong upgrade with the second players in the deal.
I don't get this type of thinking? Help me here...If I can do a deal like LJ and Bulger for Rudi and P Manning. This is not worth doing?
I wouldn't call that a reasonable deal.I might trade LJ, but I'd never trade LT for that.
Wow, I totally disagree with this then. Isn't there a saying about not marrying any of your players? All players have trade value. You're saying LT is untradeable then.Not trying to argue, but this seems to me to be pretty normal thinking in many leagues. Redraft leagues where a guy is 1-4 and turning down offers for LT like...D. Foster, Chester Taylor, and Grossman for LT. When a guy has an obvious need at RB and QB. LT alone will not score enough points to win.He'd rather go down with LT so he has a story to tell his buddies, I guess.
That's a crappy offer.You must offer him a top-5 guy at one position, not a bunch of guys that will end the year flirting with the #12 or lower spot at their positions.
Right, it depends on the situation. But to say no offer would be good enoughm is a fallacy IMHO.
Actually If this person was in need of a QB, Taylor, Foster and Grossman sounds very enticing especially in a deep league. My league has 14 players and this would be favorable to a LT owner who has a need for a solid QB. Of course the thread was about LJ - but same logic would apply.
Also 5-0 but I'm very curious to find out who/what LJ could trade for in a dynasty. Obviously, I expect huge compensation, but I don't have any idea what would be considered fair.
Offer me Holt/Harrison plus Rudi for LT/LJ plus Colston, we're in business.
another good posting. Portis plus a bag of chips gets ya LJ (I'd trade 'em straight up).Portis plus another starter and we can talk about LT.And, yes, I realize this is a :hijack: but the two players are close enough in value to talk about both.It is what it is said:I would trade Larry Johnson for...The Mad ScientistDr I Don't KnowSheriff Gonna GetchaSoutheast JeromeDolla BillReverend Gonna ChangeKid Bro SweetsInspector 2-2Coach Janky SpankyAngel of Southeast JeromeDolamite JenkinsOh yea, and that Clinton Portis guy too...
I am a LT owner in a Keeper league. Everyone complains that I'm too hard to deal with when it comes to LT. I'll trade him, but if you want him your going to overpay.No kidding, why did you bring LT in it Levin? Talk about hijacking a thread....Let's get back on topic.I have LJ and was offered Holt and Ahman Green for LJ and Driver, I balked at the deal but would do the deal if he would take Williamson instead of Driver. I think that's a fair trade.

you're kidding, right?LT and LJ are comparable players. Really the only two RB's you can compare to each other. I don't think your trade is fair at all,your talking the #1 or #2 player in FF, someone really needs to blow my doors off for me to think about moving such a consistent performer.No kidding, why did you bring LT in it Levin?

A little sensitive, aren't we? I don't recall anyone in this thread calling people idiots for speaking against LJ.And last I checked, receiving counts in fantasy football (see Westbrook) and sometimes more (like a PPR).
I don't know who would turn down a Rudi+Marvin+Peyton offer, dynasty, redraft or whatever, and I don't think that anyone who speaks against LJ is an idiot - I can see the obvious question marks as clearly as anyone else.The point to most of this is that he's very good, he's young, he's a running back and even though he's not putting up the insane numbers he did last year - it would take a huge offer to pry him away. I know you were just making a point and that wasn't a real offer (If someone in your league is really offering Rudi+Marvin+Peyton, you've found a guppy that drafted a good team and you should fleece him), but is it that hard to see why people would want to hang on to LJ? He's had his bye already and is still leading all RB's in my league with 65 points - and that's with the crappy O-line, no QB, Herm at the helm, etc.As for his 30 yards vs. ARZ, he also went over 100 receiving and added a TD.
That was a damn good offer. He's likely going to be untradeable to that owner.
