Potential Trade

12 team standard league. Guy is hurting for RB and is offering up Megatron for a RB and WR. Obviously when a guy feels the need to move a monster like Johnson, you have to at least kick the tires. I'm thinking Welker and Sproles for Calvin and maybe a throw in. My only concern is depth. but the thought of having Marshall and Johnson .. what do you guys think?

My team:
QB: Stafford, Cutler
RB: Martin, Ridley, Sproles, Tate
WR: Marshall, Welker, Hilton, Sanders
TE: Rudolph, Fleener, Clay
Def: Denver

His team:
QB: Rodgers, Smith
RB: J. Bell, Pierce, Bush, Lacy
WR: Johnson, Decker, T. Austin, Floyd, Randle, D. Moore
TE: Witten
Def: Houston

If you can get Megatron for Welker and Sproles, I would jump at it. Even Ridley and Welker would be a good deal for you.
Good luck with this.

Unless this guy is severely mentally challenged your not getting Calvin for Sproles and Welker. Martin and Welker maybe.

i wouldnt trade martin for calvin straight up.. especially in a 12 team league. thanks for your input fuz, i'm afraid Ridley's slow start will make him a non starter though.

See how crazy that sounds? That'd be the same response any sane person would give to Sproles and Welker for Calvin.. just saying.
Give a try, maybe he's that desperate.

Is it a PPR league?

i hear you. but there's not much more i can do. The difference between calvin and marshall isn't worth one of my RB. idk what else i can offer him..not a ppr Arizona

Try Martin and Sanders for Calvin and Lacy?

If you can get Calvin with one of your other backs, go for it, but I don't see how that gets accomplished if the Calvin owner has any brains.

The problem is you don't have an RB higher than Ridley/Sproles and lower than Martin. Ridley might have been the guy before Week 1.

Yep, you're exactly right.. We'll see. I'm 2-0. If the trade doesn't pan out, I'm fine with it. He's the one that's under the gun for RB help. Dealing Martin with Ridleys slow start just isn't an option.
