Insert Colts Pun Here Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 So I just agreed to this trade with a friend in my league: Denver Broncos + Fred Jackson (Me) for Matt Forte + NY Giants (Him). I'm planning on dropping the Giants as soon as I get them and picking up Kansas City, plus I already have the Bengals D/ST too so at first I thought this was a very good trade. However, I'm now starting to second guess myself for no tangible reason. Give me some reassurance here guys. This is a good trade right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to play match-ups with defense then yes it's a good trade. However if you want to hold onto a stud defense then no it's not. Bengals are a decent defense but Denver is far better I think.

I think the Bengals are under-rated too but to a lesser extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Colonel Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I personally like it, I think it's actually a pretty even trade.. but you have a much higher ceiling IMO. I like Forte a lot this year for fantasy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesie jr Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Forte alone for that trade would be worth it. Take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentHill Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Def worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insert Colts Pun Here Posted September 25, 2013 Author Share Posted September 25, 2013 Forte alone for that trade would be worth it. Take it. It pretty much is Forte alone. I'm dropping the Giants as soon as I get them. Just made sense logistics wise to trade 2 for 2. Def worth it. I personally like it, I think it's actually a pretty even trade.. but you have a much higher ceiling IMO. I like Forte a lot this year for fantasy. Thanks for the advice guys! The trade will go through tomorrow which means I'll be playing Doug Martin, LeSean McCoy and Matt Forte this weekend. And I have Stevan Ridley on my bench!

The Bench is a good place for Ridley until Bill decides to use him right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're probably right. I'm certainly hoping so from a fantasy perspective. Then I could flog Ridley to the highest bidder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have the best stable of running backs in your league, that I am certain.. and I don't even know your league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I definitely do! It's only an 8 team league though. So everyone's team is pretty stacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
