Gore for Wayne -- do I make this trade?

wehrwd · 11-06-2006, 09:02 AM

I'm in a 10-team league, currently sitting with a 5-4 record after yesterday. I've been offered the following trade by a team that is sitting at 7-2:

He'll trade me Frank Gore for Reggie Wayne.

Currently I have Tiki Barber, Ronnie Brown, Warrick Dunn, Maurice Jones-Drew and Leon Washington at RB. At receiver I have, besides Wayne, Lee Evans, Donald Driver, Dante Stallworth, Deion Branch and Bernard Berrian.

Do I make this trade? It seems pretty enticing, but Gore hasn't scored since week 2, and Wayne has been my most consistent receiver this season.

I wouldn't do it. Wayne had 3 touchdowns last week (granted, probably because Bailey was all over Harrison in Denver) but he seems like even the games he doesn't get in the end zone, he gets decent yardage. I'd keep Wayne.

No, you are good at rb, its at wr you need more depth. I would not do that deal at all.

i would consider it but im leaning toward a no

I'd say no...Barber and Dunn can start every week, so can Wayne and Evans...

Plus come playoff time you have Washington/Brown/Jones-Drew and Evans/Driver/Stallworth

No don't do it Evans has cooled off a bit lately and Berrian is going to miss 2-4 weeks you need all the WR help you can get. Stallworth hasn't done much since week 1
