Offers for Vick 

Post#1 » by snapcracklepape » Wed Sep 22, 2010 3:01 am

Hey guys, in a 12 team ppr..

Current line up is

QB: Cutler, Vick, A.Smith
RB: S.Jackson, Hightower, F.Jones, Forsett
WR: Fitzgerald, Gaffney, S.Smith (NYG), Houshmanzadeh
TE: H.Miller

We start 1 qb, 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 te, 1 d, 1 k and 1 w/r/t

I also have Burleson and Edelman at WR but I plan on dropping them for Tolbert/Snelling..

Anyway, I've been getting offers for Vick, the two I've got so far are Santonio Holmes straight up for Vick and Mike Williams (TB)

Should I pull the trigger on any of these?

Its clear I need some better WR's, are they worth it? or should I try trading vick for Matt Forte or another pass catching rb..

Now is the prime time to sell Vick. When Kolb comes back, Vick's value takes a hit. I have a feeling Vick may get another shot, as Kolb was not impressive this season before he got hurt. But I doubt it will come until the second half of the season, if at all.

Now, I don't know that Holmes or Williams really improves your WRs that much. Either would likely be your 3rd option, and might be a slight upgrade over Gaffney. But I would look for a deal elsewhere, or throw in another player to sweeten the deal. You could really use another top end WR, assuming this is standard scoring.

Well, Vick's value just went up! I would definitely look for better WRs than Holmes or Williams.

Seems like my best options so far are trading Vick straight up for either Moreno, Collie or Forte..

Moreno. Forte is on fire right now, but he can be very incosistent, as his production relies on breaking a big play through the air. Also, his value is about as high as it can get, and he has a brutal playoff matchup in weeks 14-16.

Edit: Forgot you need a WR more than a RB. I wouldn't do it for Collie. Moreno or Forte is good value for Vick, but it seems like they wouldn't be the best value for your team. You really need a WR.

I like J. Jones, not sold on Moreno at all,

I've got Vick on one of my teams, and if I got offered that, I'd reject it

I like that deal, except you are already so stacked at RB. Jacoby Jones is okay, but he's currently fighting with Walter for the #2 spot. For right now, I don't think he's cosistent enough to be played every week, and you definitely need a solid starting WR. I'd wait.
