Opinions, please, on this potential ffb trade: - kelly Jul 10, 18:31 39

  - I don't think anyone here likes Charles as much as I do, and I agree as well. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 19:36 10
    - I like him fine in a non-keeper draft around pick 35. He's a huge risk as a keeper. -- nm - David Jul 10, 19:47 9
      - You're talking about Charles? - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 20:02 8
        
        I am, yes. And this is exactly why FF rankings are such a joke. They are far too dependent on what happened the prior season. -- nm - David Jul 10, 20:10 7
        
        *steps slowly out of the room* -- nm - Matt Forte Jul 10, 20:14 6
        
        Remember at this time last year when everyone was fighting over Kevin Smith? - David Jul 10, 20:15 5
        
        I thought it was mostly injuries that did Smith in. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 20:36
        
        Nah, cuz I got Smith in the draft as the 2nd pick - Will Hunting Jul 10, 20:20 3
        
        That's what I'm talking about! He went 1-2 in the draft! I made fun of it and like four people, "Oh, that's who I wanted." -- nm - David Jul 10, 20:23 2
        
        Hey...the #1-1 was Santonio....there wasn't a tremendous amount of talent up top - Will Hunting Jul 10, 20:26 1
        
        And most people loved the Santonio pick. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 20:42
  - I concur in the judgment. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jul 10, 18:43
  - Is it because Charles is splitting time with Thomas Jones? - kelly Jul 10, 18:39 19
    - They're asking you to take on their risks, Charles and Jackson, for your long term established players. - David Jul 10, 19:19 1
      - Well, success in fantasy baseball is. Success in fantasy football is often predicated on sacrificing chickens and fatted calves. -- nm - TFox Jul 10, 19:20

      - he/she's not asking for Boldin -- nm - chuckles Jul 10, 19:04 14
        
        I'm assuming it's a 3 keeper league, the trade includes DeSean, who no one should keep instead of Boldin. -- nm - Stephen (Status Seeker) Jul 10, 19:06 12
        
        Ummm.....DeSean had 2x TD's and 100 more receiving yards than Anquan last year. - Will Hunting Jul 10, 19:13 11
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        He's also a Suspended for Conduct Detrimental to the Team waiting to happen. -- nm - David Jul 10, 19:22
        
        I like DeSean better too, but not enough to take Charles over MJD. -- nm - TFox Jul 10, 19:15 1
        
        That's my feeling; if Charles wasn't splitting time with Jones, I'd say go for it - Will Hunting Jul 10, 19:17
        
        catching from McNabb -- nm - chuckles Jul 10, 19:13 6
        
        Kolb wasn't exactly a slouch when he was playing. - Will Hunting Jul 10, 19:16 5
        
        2 games. - Stephen (Status Seeker) Jul 10, 19:23 3
        
        You're the guy who said no one should keep the guy who had more yards and 2x as many TD's - Will Hunting Jul 10, 19:27 2
        
        The guy I champion is no longer the #2 WR on the team. - Stephen (Status Seeker) Jul 10, 20:02 1
        
        Just a quick Flacco/Warner note. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 10, 20:20
        
        i'll bet Boldin has better numbers with Flacco over a season than Jackson does with Kolb -- nm - chuckles Jul 10, 19:19

    - partially (to me at least) because who the hell knows what the timeshare will be there at this point. - TFox Jul 10, 18:43
  - Agree with the Lawyer -- nm - amoxy Jul 10, 18:37
- I wouldn't. -- nm - David Jul 10, 18:33
- didn't Deangelo get cut? -- nm - Beaker Jul 10, 18:32 2
  - and if you already have your WR, a draft pick would be better -- nm - Beaker Jul 10, 18:33 1
    - never mind am a dunnie -- nm - Beaker Jul 10, 18:33

No, I was not paragliding. Maybe I'll try it next year, though - looked very fun :) -- nm - Beryllium Jul 10, 18:20 2
