    Guy is offering me:

    Tom Brady
    Peyton Hillis
    Dez Bryant

    for

    Phillip Rivers
    Arian Foster
    Brandon Lloyd.

    pull the trigger or no?

    Is this standard scoring or do QBs get 6 points for TDs?

    If standard, I say no. Here's why:
    Brady is an upgrade from Rivers, obviously, but the gap is not huge. Rivers is a good fantasy QB (minus one game). You're getting screwed when it come to Hillis for Foster. No question there. Dez has been better than Lloyd, but Lloyd will be the #1 receiver in StL.

    If QBs get 6pts/TD it might be acceptable, depending on your roster.

    Yeah QB's get 6 pts/ TD, Tom Brady is the top scorer in the league right now. I made the move simply because i'm 1-5 and needed to switch up the roster. ( I wasn't there and got auto-drafted).

    I'd probably do it then, depending on who your other running backs are.

    Yeah I wouldn't if Hillis would be your #1 RB.

    Would you do any of these trades? My WR are weak (had Britt, and Mike Williams is sucking bad).
    1. I give Ingram and get Lloyd.
    2. I give Ingram and Wayne and get Boldin.
    3. I give Benson and Wayne for Boldin.
    4. I give Steven Jackson for Colston.

    Or any other moves you'd try to get one of those 3 WRs, or Maclin. This is the only owner willing to try to work a trade. He needs RB help and I need WR help.

    My current team. No PPR. Start 2 RB & 3 WR - no flex:
    Romo
    MJD, S Jax, Ingram, Benson, Tolbert, Torain
    Wayne, Williams, Julio, Mike Thomas, Garcon, Greg Little
    Graham
    D/ST - change weekly
    K - Hanson

    FA Wrs right now: Breaston, Baldwin, D. Nelson, Benn, Demaryius Thomas, Sanzenbacher, Damian Williams.

    In order, I would prefer: Colston, Lloyd, Boldin. Boldin is streaky. Lloyd is unknown at this point. Colston seems to be Brees' favorite receiver.

    I would try for Ingram or Benson for Colston. Also might want to pick up Baldwin or Nelson (maybe drop Tolbert?)

    try Wayne and Tolbert for Lloyd

    He won't be interested in Tolbert. Here's what has gone down so far.

    He offered Lloyd for ingram.
    I came back with Ingram + Wayne for Colston.
    He countered with Ingram + Wayne for Boldin, which I don't like.
    Would Steven Jackson + Wayne be too much to offer for Colston? I mean I would try straight up Jackson for Colston 1st, but wondering what my max offer should be.

    How about Maclin? He also has him.

    Maclin = Colston, imo

    Holding onto Tolbert for now until I see what Mathews health status is. Thinking Breaston is the best FA right now followed by Baldwin. Nelson isn't a bad pick up either, especially while Donald Jones is out. Interested to see what Demaryius Thomas does.

    Figured I'd latch on to this thread

    Guy in my league wants Chris Johnson who has severely underperformed for me this year. He's offering Mike Wallace if I throw in Brandon Pettigrew as well. I currently have Ray Rice, Tim Hightower and Mark Ingram at RB as well as Jason Witten at TE so I think it would be a decent trade. I've got Santana Moss, Brandon Lloyd, Steve Smith, Jeremy Maclin, and Hakeem Nicks at WR so I'm not hurting too much for another WR.

    Getting Wallace would give me another solid option to go with Smith, Maclin and Nicks and would slot into my WR/RB slot where Johnson is now. I only need two RB's for those slots if I put a WR in the flex so starting Rice and Ingram would be my best bet.

    Good trade or am I crazy?

    Good trade, although I think Johnson will only get better.
