Actually no.

I had nothing to do with this. He said he was shopping RB's, and I said to offer me something for the numerous WR's I had.

Opened up my email and there was offer from him. There was no prior discussions.

Porter isnt going to be the third WR. He's in competition with Northcutt, Matt Jones (if he plays) and Troy Williamson. He has a chance to becoming pretty good player again.


That's exactly why. I see Porter doing better, and I honestly don't think Jones will stay healthy the whole year, and Washington isn't better than Willie Parker or Steven Jackson.

Maybe I'll be eating my own words, or maybe I chose the right option. I'll just have to wait and see. And I turned down Marshall because of his suspension Crew.

Hopefully it works out for you.

I thought he might be a sleeper because they have a good QB in Jacksonville and if he plays well, it could work out well.

ill go ahead and put it through sense there wasnt a lot against it. but damn this is one of the worst trades ever lol.

I still cant believe you can protest a trade.

I understand its too stop people from offloading high end talent, but Thomas Jones is hardly that.

We don't know for sure, granted, but it's a poor deal based on projected totals, past performance, relative importance of the positions, accepted wisdom from both "experts" and veterans alike, etc. etc.

Marshall is a clear number one with proven success, so while the suspension will hurt, having a strong weekly performer who will miss a few games is better than an iffy prospect who will play every week but likely won't put up fantasy-starter numbers often.

I do hope it works out for you (meaning, I hope it works poorly for Smas 😛 ), but it was a very bad deal. We're not being harsh to you personally, just telling the truth. Maybe it will work out great, but chances are it won't. But it's not such a blockbuster that it will make or break either of you, so good luck.

Nah, for me it was all about depth.

For him, I assume its the same.

As Smas said, it was depth. I didn't need Thomas Jones, and I don't have to start Porter if he does bad. But in the end, I probably should have tried for a better receiver off of you Smas.

depth? Jones was a starter for his team, and that roster spot will be filled by a less talented player now. You absolutely needed Jones.

The bottom line is it was a top 50 player for a guy ranked in the 300's. You could get a solid quality WR for Jones no question, it was a retarded move.

maybe porter becomes a star and jones goes out week 2 and ull be a genious? i doubt it but that is part of the beauty of fantasy you never know for sure.

Because you traded for LT and got him with Palmer, and then traded Peterson to me for Reggie Wayne.

Jeez dont remind me of that trade.

I'm drawing an awkward blank here...who's AD? Andre Davis????
