***UPDATE****

Same guy just countered with DeAngelo Williams for A Johnson and Harrison. I think thats better for me than what I had originally offered. Thoughts?

Be wary of Williams. If you plan on being in the playoffs, he's got matchups @NE, v.MIN and @NYG. You don't want to be worried about sitting your star RB when it matters most. I dunno, I may put more stock in that than I should, but I'm targetting other big name backs first. Also, Carolina's passing game is non-existent, so teams are going to stack the box against DW until Delhomme shows he can throw the ball to his own teammates.

Thanks. Good to keep that in mind. I'm 2-2 in my league right now and tied for second in my division so I have a legit chance(top 2 teams from each division make po). I know AJ will blowup soon too so I'd hate to have him score points for someone else. Forte and K smith arent that bad of a combo that I need to trade anyways. Maybe I'll just stay put. I just liked the trade because I picked Harrison off waivers so it is essentially AJ for D Will, and I thought that was good. I'd never have to worry about my backs for the rest of the season if I had a 3-headed monster of forte-d will-k smith.

I don't like the counter offer at all.
Matter of fact I don't like Williams and steered clear of him in all my drafts, where as on the other hand I went after Kevin Smith and am/was very high on him.

Cliff Levingston would rather have Kevin Smith than DeAngelo Williams.
