Fantasy Football Trade Advice: Preseason

It's that time of year, so I thought I'd start this thread.

I was offered Ryan Mathews (before he was announced hurt) for my 7th Round pick in a keeper league...dodged a bullet there.

I actually think that might still not be a bad thing. He was considered to be one of the top 5 RBs in the league coming into the year, and is certainly top 10. They expect he'll miss 4-6 weeks but even if it's the first week of October when he comes back, that's still a great value.

Yeah, but the guy is always getting hurt I feel like. And I already have Rivers. Not sure I want my two keepers being Rivers and Mathews. I could keep Mathews and Forte. I probably would have made the deal, but now that the guy is getting hurt again, I'd rather keep my pick I think.

I've had Matthews in the past and he drove me crazy. I wouldn't do it.

Gore and Stevie for Andre Johnson and McGahee?

Seems like a bit of a wash. Who do you think will stay the healthiest between the pairs? I think McGahee's number will slip quite a bit this year. Ronnie Hillman.

How about this one....I give up Cam, Ahmad Bradshaw, and Colston and get Arian Foster and Carson in return. I have Big Ben as well, so I'm still pretty well covered at QB, and now I'd have Rice and Foster to go with Gronk and Bowe....Thoughts?

^ My thoughts are Dynasty. Carson will put up good enough numbers. Do it.

That might be a stretch, but I would do it as well.
