nofishfisherman Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 So I am debating a trade that was offered to me. Here are the players, what do you guys think.I'd be getting:Vincent Jackson (WR)Santonio Holmes (WR)I'd be giving up:Ben Rothslisberger (QB)Anquan Boldin (WR)I think I am going to pull the trigger since I also have Phillip Rivers at QB so I don't really need Big Ben, and Boldin has been hurt all year and he's the # 2 option at best for AZ. I start 3 WR's each week and Jackson would give me a 3rd stud at WR. The other 2 are Randy Moss and Steve Smith (NYG). I should mention its a PPR league.

The Hex Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I say do it. It's basically Jackson for Boldin and Jackson has been pretty good, unlike Boldin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach1310 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 If it were me.... I would just offer Big Ben for Jackson. Anquan will get healthy here soon and I, personally, would rather have him then Holmes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james_walleye Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Is Boldin ever healthy? And if he gets healthy....for how long? Health is always his issue, year in and year out. If he was ever healthy he would be a top end reciever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Here is the think to look at,Bolin is back to almost 100%, and if you get jackson, and then have to start rivers as your qb, what if there passing game goes south????

What if it goes through the roof. Can't beat a top combo like Rivers and Jackson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassNspear Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 i would agree, but do you want to bank on it that they work it out every week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Head Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I don't think you need both Rivers and Big Ben on your team. Both are top tier QB's and your wasting talent on your bench that you could use to upgrade at WR. I don't have the answer on Bolding for you though... As you may have read in my thread, I'm struggling with that too. I think Bolding is top 10 when healthy, but he hasn't been all year. Now he is getting healthy, so do you bank on him or not?

nofishfisherman Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 Thats been my problem. My original offer was straight up Big Ben for Jackson, the guy wouldn't go for it so I had to sweeten the deal a little. I should mention that I'm in 9th place out of 10 teams so I have very little to lose. I'm sitting in 4th place in total points but I keep losing by 1 point every week it seems while everyone is having their best games against me. I just didn't want Big Ben rotting on my bench when I am in need of another WR. Its a little bit of a gamble with Boldin getting healthy now but if I could have gotten Jackson and kept boldin I don't think i could sit any of my top 3 guys to get Boldin in the mix anyways.
