The two most exciting things for me in FF are the draft and trading. So I get a little upset when I send trade offers and the other people don't even respond to my offers.

Dude, I'm not giving you Chris Johnson for Mike Bell.

But bell is do for a breakout year in best goes down

in my 16 team - 10 player keeper league someone just dropped LeShoure. Even though he's out the year, it's a KEEPER league. I basically had an empty spot on my roster (took a flier on Larry Johnson in last round), so LeShoure will be riding my bench the entire year. Wish we had a spot for IR guys, I'd drop him there and pick up someone else

Who did they pick up when they dropped LeShoure?

[MoOff24]

leshoure is available in the SI keeper league too

[MoOff24]

nvm, see yours is a 10 person keeper

Who did they pick up when they dropped LeShoure?

LeShoure has actually been dropped twice. Guy who actually drafted him in our rookie only draft dropped him in favor for a second TE, Joel Dreessen. Another team picked him up and then dropped him for Deji Karim (seeing as how Rashard Jennings is out for year).

SI keeper league is smaller than this. SI league has a roster size of 15, this league it's 21.

Got an interesting trade offer on the table right now in a league. I'd send Tim Hightower away in exchange for Jacboy Ford and Daniel Thomas.

Thomas is behind Reggie Bush on the depth chart in Miami, but we all know Reggie isn't an every down back, so Thomas should get plenty of carries.

Ford is listed as the top guy at Oakland's WR2 slot by their depth chart. I've heard they want to get him more involved in the offense this year, so that could net more points than previous by him. Also still deadly on returns with his speed.

My other RB's are Knowshon Moreno, Shonn Greene, on RB and WR/TE/RB flex position respectively.

Also have Cadillac Williams and LaRod Stephens-Howling hanging around on the bench.

I'm really contemplating pulling the trigger on this trade.

Thoughts? Would you do it?

Honestly, unless this is a 16 team league or larger LSH and Caddy prolly shouldn't be on your roster. I would imagine there would have to be some better alternatives out there......or at least there were during the draft.

As far as the trade goes, your reasoning is sound but honestly Hightower could end up being your best RB. I'm hoping that your WR position is stacked given your RBs. If that is the case would you really have room for Ford?
