willie parker did really well and colston stunk today, but i realize marques colston is a top 10 wideoute and willie parker is on the bench since i have addai and turner and selvin young on bench with willie parker. I do need to upgrade my WR, so my question is should i do this trade? and if I do the trade, who do I drop?
Here are all my WRs
Larry Fitzgerald (obviously dont drop this guy)
(Ari - WR)
Nate Burleson
(Sea - WR)
Laveranues Coles
(NYJ - WR)
Dwayne Bowe
(KC - WR)
Donald Driver
(GB - WR)

Sasha Vujacic = The Phail Machine = The Ring Blocker
Trade Sasha before he ruins the Lakers next season.

Re: Trade: Should I trade willie parker for colston?
the trade isn't a one for one? why do you need to drop someone?
and i'd do the trade, not that your wr's are horrible or anything, but parker won't get a lot of time as a starter if you have those guys ahead of him

How many WR's do you start?
Also, do not drop Bowe under any circumstances. He's Kansas City's #1 WR, and he's a big possession target that will surprise a lot of people this season after building off a solid rookie campaign.

i'd do the trade. If you don't start a flex player might as well bolster up that WR core .. burleson is out for the year now as well

Re: Trade: Should I trade willie parker for colston?
Im passing on this deal. Willie Parker had a huge day and the Pittsburgh offense looked absolutely fantastic. If they keep rolling like they did, Parker could very well be a top 5 fantasy back. Two years ago, he had 16 TD's. At the very least you know PArker is going to rack up a TON of yardage.
As for Turner, I like him, but I'm not sold yet. He tore apart an abysmal Lions defense. When I say abysmal, I mean missed tackle after missed tackle after missed tackle. I'd give it a couple more weeks before pulling the trigger on anything.
If I'm making any deal in your situation now, I'm going to try to sell EXTREMELY high on Michael Turner.
With Fitzgerald, Coles, Bowe, and Driver, you're not in desperate need AT ALL.

Re: Trade: Should I trade willie parker for colston?
sadly i should have waited or maybe asked for andre johnson (felt that would be too high for me to get thou). matt forte was dropped by someone (no clue why) and picked him up in return as my backup. I did do a trade to get braylon edwards giving up bowe and royal.
So now i have:
QB: peyton
WR1: larry fitz
WR2: Braylon Edwards
WR3: Donald Driver or Coles (colston when hes back)
RB1: Addai
RB2: Turner
RB backup : forte
TE: Witten
K: steven gost
DEF: Seattle (at home)/ Philly
as long as i stay in the top 4 with this team I should be able to win playoffs with colston in lineup.
ahh well next time i'll wait till thursday before doing any trades. this is my first time, so lots of lessons to learn.
