Okay. 12 team league. Typical points...not ppr. (We start 1 qb, 2 rb, 3 wr, 1 te, 1 k and 1 d)Keeper league, where we each keep 1. I kept L. Fitzy...One of the guys screwed my plan to crap. He kept Lynch over P. Manning. Anyway here it is:

P. Manning
E. Manning

E. Graham
L. White
K. Smith (det)

L. Fitzy
S. Holmes
C. Johnson
Desean Jackson
R. Meachem

J. Witten
D. Lee

N. Rackers
K. Brown

Jacksonville
Jets

Hit me w/ it. RBs are weak...any chance here?

Not sure if that is 85 or Calvin Johnson.

Solid pretty much everywhere but RB, as you point out. You don't have a top 10 talent there, which is a concern. Unfortunately you don't have a lot to offer to upgrade either. Your backup WRs are pretty weak.

Calvin Johnson.

One guy in the league drafted two bad QB's and needs to upgrade. He is interested in Eli...He offered Parker. I don't know if that is an upgrade or not. He won't get goal lines.

Hurry up and accept that trade before he revokes!


Eli has only trade value for your team, you'll only use him on Peyton's BYE week. And you probably won't get any better value for him straight up than Willie Parker, who I think is going to be better than expected this season.

He overed it at draft...i just put it on the site...will have o wait to see if he takes it.
It can't be straight up. We always have to trade position for position...SO, I offerd Eli and L. White, for Warner and Parker.

Hmm.. not so sure about that one. Too bad you can't just go one for one.

Position for position...there is a rule to get revoked about 10 years ago.

It is a strict league. He turned that offer down. I came back at him with Bulger and Parker for Eli and White.

He has Warner and Bulger and these are "bad" QBs? Warner threw more TDs over the second half of last season than any other QB - including Brady.

Pull your offer off the table. Make him give more if he wants Eli. Parker and White are basically the same and you are moving from Eli to Bulger. I just don't see the logic there.

Agree with Skip, Eli for Parker was great, given your situation. My thinking is he was acting on emotion but got some reassurance on his squad and came to his senses.

I also agree with Skip that something has to be done about that same position rule. Usually the point of a trade is for both owners to give up depth at one position for an upgrade at another position. Your situation is a perfect example of how that rule hurts the competitiveness of this league.

Anyway, hopefully the Graham of this year is the same Graham of last year. It's tough to rely on receivers to win you a championship no matter how good they are, especially in a non-ppr.
