Hmm... interesting concept there to keep the player at his selected draft slot. Your goal is to get Forte and only lose a 13th round pick opposed to Peterson and lose a 6th round pick. If you're in a 8 or 10 team league, then Cliff Levingston would say go for it. If not, just hang onto Peterson unless you absolutely know you can make those trades, cause Cliff Levingston certainly wouldn't trade Forte for Bush/Eli or Bush/Romo.

I would trade Eli and Bush for Forte in a heartbeat.

You would retain Romo and Brady and net Forte.

Easy peasy.

Is the league PPR? Even if it is, I would still make the trade I think.

Just trade Romo and Bush for Forte and be done with it. You'd easily have the best running backs in the league which is the most important fantasy position.

I ended up trading Bush, Ochostinko and Winslow for Forte. and i get to pick up a TE [he is dropping Owen Daniels] and Visanthe Shiancoe are on waivers currently

I have another offer for AP

Michael Turner and Big Ben for AP and Romo thoughts on that one?

your definitely getting the raped in that trade. You lose in each position and in no circumstances should you make that trade.

Wow; Cliff Levingston wishes that guy was in his league.

Making that deal would be almost as stupid as the other guy trading you Forte.
