Well th trade is complete..Waiting approval by commish
I got
Rogers
Mendenhall
Celek
Sims-Walker

He gets
Johnson
Orton
Clark
Royal

I think I did good considering this. Orton has looked good against the Jags and Hawks.. Won't continue.. Hate giving up Jphnson and Clark but Celek should come around . Mendenhal is good and Rogers is awesome.. If Walker breaks out it will be a steal you know Eddie Royal is going to do. Also consider Orton and Royal were pickups I had last week..'

So I am hoping that I get into the playoffs and Favre turns it around...The Vikings last 3 games during league playoffs should be good passing games assuming Rice is back.. If Favre starts to look good in the second half I will Trade Rogers to shore up any holes my team may have.. It is a bold move but I am 0 -2 and you need to stick your neck out to win these leagues. I have won this league 3 times since joing 10 years ago and all 3, i had to makee bold moves..

nice job. simply put, on;y thing i'd blink at is dallas clark, as he's a week killer for opponents--you're right there, thnen boom 31 pts against you. upgarde at qb and mendenhall can only go up. might be tough sledding for CJ this year. GL--nicely done

REALLY!?! YOU, GOT robbed? how?

maybe Rodgers doesnt look all world like he did LY. mendenhall might be a bust(not the case), though a passing game will help to balance offense with ben back. Maybe vick doesnt throw to TE's, though once realizes how much celek will help him....he will. Sims Walker: jax looking to be behind alot TY, which means throwing -though matched against best corner of def every week, and who's throwing to him.

that said
Dallas Clark will get 12+ points (depending on format of course) every week... what TE can do that? no one--though he WON't be the best TE this yr, someoen else will, Jermichale, Vernon...Gates? CJ, crazy talented, but simply dont think his year this year. Hardly ever do you see a repeat from previous tops at positions. usually with RB's its a mid-pack guy that rises to top. Usually someone picked 7th overall or later that busts out and puts in the best YR -that line of thought- chris goes down some from last yr (though even if he does--thats pretty damn good)
orton and royal then? Orton definitely has weapons this YR. I'm sold on Demetrius Thomas and Royal is solid player, though was a fantasy enigma w/o Marshall to open up field for him. Orton'll be solid-but shouldnt even sniff coming close to Rodgers....wayyyy too good and tough division to not have him push towards being the best this year(rodgers w/gb); Running game ???'s could go either way in how he performs. Will hafta need to throw more, or will they cue on defensing the passing game?, my question is... what defense can. Few.
Sims Walker > Royal (fantasy wise)

I'd be thrilled if i were you-gettin those guys. Mendenhall's a 2nd half guy anyways....and first year w/o anyone to vulture carries (maybe doesnt hold up?) but so long as holds onto ball, should be beast.

tell him to talk to you come playoff time, though thank'm for concern. in reading your takes throughout year, we're closer on point in thoughts it seems, so i'm hardly the person to see soo differently from you(to be able to critique unbiasedly)--though apparently he (commish) is on the other side. anyday and twice on sunday i'd pull the trigger on that trade.

jus as an FYI, my 2c, i think if were to draft again, celek was taken off baord, right before kellen winslow, then i was left with Zach Miller. Not thrilled, but supposedly was to step up w/campbell. Now, i actually believe will do better with gradkowski at helm... though, to my point--miller at this point, i see as a lesser option than celek...he hasnt done anything yet(neitehr have really), which means he hasta get his stats from rest of year, which means bigger per games stats than watered over full sked.

i have miller--would i take celek over him, prolly, winslow over celek, yeah. though jus picked up Aaron Hernandez from NE...crazy after catch guy...and should see more targets as short yardage, 3rd down back Faulk out for yr. Welker too more looks, though Hernanadez bigger home run threat. I picked him up--and expect him to outperform both Celek and Miller. Perhaps wishful thinking, we'll see

I think you probably could have left the TE part out of the deal and still got the guy to take the trade of:
AR and Mend for Orton and Johnson.

If he is willing to unload Rodgers then I am guessing he has another qb other than Orton he planned on using.
He was hungry for Johnson. Clark was gravey for him.

seems like a fair trade to me :shrug: teams are going to stop Johnson and make VY beat them and Rodgers will throw minimum 30 td's
