0 Subject: Injury bug continues to haunt me. Need Help

Posted by: Showtime
- [27282722] Wed, Sep 10, 2008, 11:07

I had Colston, Brady and Burleson on my team.

I currently have J.T. Osullivan, Damon Huard, and Trent Edwards at QB.

My current WR's are colston, jennings, desean jackson, kevin walter, and eddie royal.

My rb's are: graham, forte, fargas, and chris johnson, sammy morris

I obviously need to upgrade my QB position now that Brady is out but am worried about my thin wr now that Colston is out. I have been offered Jon Kitna for Sammy Morris and Eddie Royal. Would you make that deal?

That would leave me with:
qbs: jon kitna, J.T. Osullivan, Damon Huard, and Trent Edwards

Wrs: colston (inj 4-6 weeks), jennings, desean jackson, kevin walter

Rbs: graham, forte, fargas, and chris johnson

I can always pick up Matt Jones (Jac) or David Patten off waivers.

Should I make the Kitna deal that may leave my WR's thin?

How many do you start each week -- need that info as well.

I would not give up Royal. Compare Kitna and Edwards over the long haul. Each has downsides and upsides.
Who has the better support around them. I think Edwards might be steadier. Royal does KR and PR as well and
will be thrown to often. Will Royal + Edwards will outperform Kitna + Jennings/Walter? I think so.

ps. I "lost" Colston too, but I have Royal and Jackson. I have other ideas for you as well but need to wait until
our claims go through so as not to slip my hand!

You really got bit by the injury bug!

Start planning for hockey/basketball season.

Also I don't think Kitna is enough of an upgrade over the QB pupu platter you have now. Between the three you should be able to get a good matchup each week.

I bet you could get more for Royal. Sell high!!!! You can get a better QB for him I bet.

May as well pickup Patten off waivers while Colston is out

Ok claims finished. What about D(ropsy the ball) Henderson? Also do you have TE or TE/WR FLEX?
Fasano and Rosario deserve a look see. Maybe even Scaife. All of those got lots of looks by their QB's
last week.

So I have just been proposed these 2 trades:

Trade #1:
I receive Jon Kitna
I trade Earnest Graham and Kevin Walter

Trade #2:
I receive Brett Favre
I trade Earnest Graham and Kevin Walter

This is my current roster. In a league that starts 1 qb, 3 wr and 2 rb:

I currently have J.T. Osullivan, Damon Huard, and Trent Edwards at QB.

My current WR's are colston (injured 4-6 weeks), jennings, desean jackson, kevin walter, eddie royal, and matt jones.

My rb's are: graham, forte, fargas, chris johnson, sammy morris


Which trade should I make?

Is Tarvaris Jackson available?

I'm telling ya, he might be garbage like Reggie Bush, but he will get you 150-200 yards passing 1 to 2 TD's a game with the INT du jour. Add 40-60 yards rushing and you got some viable fantasy stuff!

Also, I'd consider unloading a starting RB for a middle-tier QB like Eli Manning or Jason Campbell.
