Our league gives 1 point per 10 yards rushing/receiving and 6 points per TD.

I have been offered Willis McGahee and Calvin Johnson for Marion Barber.

From a points to date perspective, McGahee and Barber are almost the same at this point of the season. However there are two things to consider.

On one hand McGahee seems like the better of the two because he is the primary RB in his office where Barber shares carries with Jones.

On the other hand, the Ravens' schedule appears to be more difficult than the Cowboys and based upon their performance the other night, I see everyone putting 8 & 9 guys in the box to stop the run.

Thoughts?

I have Barber 6 points ahead of Willis at this point. Johnson is averaging about 7 ppg this year. The question is, who is Johnson replacing in your line-up? Detroit has so many weapons that you don't know from week to week who will be putting up the numbers. I expect Johnson to pick it up a bit, but if he's no better than your worst starting WR, there's no point in making this trade.
