Trade Review

[Badabing]

I'm currently 2-2.  The guy I made the trade with is 4-0.


I traded Steve Smith, Carolina, for Ladanian Tomlinson.  Both guys are underacheiving.  What do you think?

My team: Delhomme PickSixers

QB Peyton Manning
RB Steven Jackson
RB Knowshon Moreno
WR Hines Ward
WR Benard Berrian
Flex Larry Johnson
TE Kellen Winslow
K Lawrence Tynes
D Chicago

Bench
QB Delhomme(just b/c the team name, plus he plays the Bucs during Mannings bye)
RB Reggie Bush
RB Jon Stewart
WR Torry Holt
TE Vernon Davis
D Dallas

I'm hoping Ward and Beriran can shoulder the load at WR, and believe that L.T. will turn it around.  I'm just sick of starting L.J. every week.

[Booker]

Bad trade. Smith has a much better chance to turn it around where as LT is just flat out done

[olafberserker]

agree with Booker

[dalbuc]

I third that, LT is an RB that like Shaun Alexander or Larry Johnson before him has just plain flat out fallen off the map. Smith is still going to grab a few 100 yard games but I see none of those in LT's future.

[Incognito]

Yeah. LT is over the hill. I skipped over him in my fantasy drafts.

[Badabing]

Yeah, I was just trying to take a risk.  I do believe Smith will rebound, as I dont think the Panthers will be that atrocious after the bye.  However, I also felt that .L.T will rebound and is on a better team.  He didn't play the past 2 weeks prior to Sunday and Sunday the team was down 28-0, so I could see why he only got 7 carries.  I think he'll be fine.

We'll see.  Definitely a risk, but I think if L.T. can stay on the field, I defintely made a good trade.  If he doesn't however, then yes, I just traded away a good WR.

[Trojan52]

I think you should have asked for another player in that trade.

[TOP SECRET]

I don't mind it so much... Panthers are really struggling to do anything in the passing game and I'm sure that is not Smith's fault.... I don't think LT is completely done, however I do think he is done as a feature 1600 15 TD back, but I still think he will get a decent amount of goaline carries and should still recover for a decent season...

I don't see the panthers passing game picking up a lot. I like LT a lot more than LJ for you, and Berrian will probably get better as the season rolls.
