Westbrook trade: Who wins?
Posted: Fri Aug 22, 2008 8:04 pm
Brian Westbrook + Correll Buckhalter for Marion Barber + Felix Jones + DeSean Jackson
Westy is definitely the best player in the trade, but Barber isn't far behind him. Barber scores more TDs, he's younger and less injury prone, and he's starting for the first time this year so his stats will only increase.
As far the filler, Buckhalter has zero value unless Westbrook goes down. On the other hand, Felix Jones will probably get alot of carries this year, and DeSean Jackson is going to be the top WR for the Eagles (with Curtis out).
I'm in a standard 12 team head-to head league.
Thoughts?
