Opinions needed,

I am considering offering this trade in a Zealots league,
I have offered it once then pulled it back before the owner saw it, so I'm
having second thoughts.........and I'm not sure if it's because it's May and I've
went to long without Football? Or I'm making a good move?

Also I just inherited this Team about 2 months ago, so I'm rebuilding.
I have the Following:

1.1 Rookie Pick- (Thinking McFadden strongly)- ( but I want to get the 1.2 as well ).

MY RB Situation: ( Willie Parker - Edgerrin - (R) RB Ahmad Bradshaw- and loads of backups )
MY WR Situation: ( Colston - Wes Welker- Chad Johson - Marvin Harrison - Anthony Gonzalez - Patrick Crayton )


My WR position IMO is pretty solid, but I have questions at RB ........I also have all of W.Parkers Current Backups,
though I think He'll bounce back ........I want Mendenhall as well and I don't think he'll make it out of the first round.

His Team:

1.2 rookie pick

His RB Situation: ( Frank Gore - Ryan Grant - Marshawn Lynch - Willis McGahee -Selvin Young ).
His WR situation: ( Anquan Boldin - Dwayne Bowe - D.Jackson - A.Toomer - and a few bench WR'S

Cleary he has a very strong RB Core .........and IMO needs some help at WR.


So Here's my Trade I want to offer, but need opinions before I do.

I get:

His 1.2 and  Selvin Young

He Gets:

Chad Johnson and my ( 3.6 extra pick in the 3rd).

I figure he'll jump on it since Chad Johnson will boost his WR Core.
I would then have:
W.Parker
Edge
Selvin Young
McFadden
Mendenhall

and still have:

Colston
Welker
Harrison
Gonzalez....Insurance for Harrison.
Crayton

Plus I have 3 .......2nd  round Picks.

One other side Note, His Defensive Players are average and I feel I have the Edge there.

My LB Core and DB package includes:

Howard Thomas - Ray Lewis - K. Bulluck - A.J.Hawk - Calvin Pace - Mathias Kiwanuka - Landon Johnson

DB"S: Roman Harper - Bob Sanders - Cedric Griffin - Donte Whitner - LaRon Landry
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So what do you guys think?
Should I get rid of Chad and gain the 1.2 and Selvin young ...adding Mendenhall after McFadden
or hold off?

if you're trying to rebuild, i wouldn't take a chance on selvin young...he might be on the streets like olandis gary, just a few years after being a hot commodity. i would definetely try to trade harrison first. if that doesn't work, i would offer CJ for the 1.02, 3.02 and a 2009 2nd. might be a little much to ask for, but it's a starting point.

Thanks Birdman,

Having the 1.1 and wanting to take McFadden makes it somewhat bitter knowing that
Parker may take awhile getting back to form and Mendenhall stands to be a productive RB as well
in Pittsburgh, and it's starting to become obvious in the NFL that 2 RB systems are here to stay.

I'll see if there's interests in Harrison first, because he is chasing a Title IMO...and that might work.

keep those suggestions coming. Cool
