October 29, 201213 yr Got a trade offer that I'm seriously contemplating: I get: Peyton Manning I lose: Ahmad Bradshaw At first glace, you would say yes take that but I'm not sure how I feel about my team if I do. My team right now: QB Phillip Rivers RB Matt Forte RB Ahmad Bradshaw Flex Doug Martin WR Jordy Nelson WR Reggie Wayne TE Kyle Rudolph K David Akers D Broncos QB Joe Flacco QB Matt Hassleback RB Pierre Thomas RB Michael Bush RB Darryl Richardson WR Jeremy Maclin Chargers D

Good luck making that call. That's about as close to a 50/50 decision I've seen.
October 29, 201213 yr Not sure the upgrade at QB covers the downgrade at RB/Flex. Good luck making that call. That's about as close to a 50/50 decision I've seen. Agreed. It's very close but I'm not very high on Bradshaw especially after that performance last week.
October 29, 201213 yr Author Why do you already have 3 QBs? I picked up Hassleback last week just off a whim and thought about starting him. It was only because Rivers was on a bye and Flacco was playing the Texans. Then this week I held onto him again because Flacco was on a bye. Hassleback is about to get booted...so no worries there.

It's very close but I'm not very high on Bradshaw especially after that performance last week. I'm extremely torn on it. I just don't think I can win the whole thing with Rivers/Flacco at my helm. Plus its a keeper league and if Manning continues to play well, I have a top QB for next year too. I'm leaning towards making the deal, but I'm so torn. HT you are right about this week with Bradshaw. The nagging foot worries me some. I'd have to play a WR in my flex, which I hate.

Not a great situation for the stretch run.
October 29, 201213 yr Author You would be down to Maclin at Flex every week right? Not a great situation for the stretch run. Yeah, I'd have to start three WRs: Nelson, Wayne, and Maclin. Nelson still has a bye, and has this hammy issue. Maclin might have a rookie QB soon. Man, I love the idea of having Manning QBing my squad with four consectutive games with 300 yards and 3 TDs...but I dont' think I can do it.

October 29, 201213 yr So looks like the decision is between making a run this season or starting next year with a Manning/Forte combo. Guess it would come down to current standings and how I felt about my team.
October 29, 201213 yr Why can't you make that trade and then trade a receiver for a flex player like Sproles or something?
October 29, 201213 yr Author So looks like the decision is between making a run this season or starting next year with a Manning/Forte combo. Guess it would come down to current standings and how I felt about my team. Sitting at 5-3 (once this week is concluded) which is third in my division but 4th over all in the league. Had the high score twice. I have a good team, not a great team. If Rivers/Flacco could get their head out of their butts and play with more consistency, I woudln't even have to think about it.
October 29, 201213 yr Author Why can't you make that trade and then trade a receiver for a flex player like Sproles or something? That is an option, but from all the trade talks that I hear...no one is really looking for WRs. Everyone is desperate for RBs, and I am one of the few that have three pretty strong ones (for the most part).
October 29, 201213 yr Author I'm pretty torn on it. I wish The Phenom was around so that I could just do the opposite of what he thought lol
