I have Marion Barber in my league another person has offered me Brandon Jacobs and Ryan Grant or Earneest Graham it looks good on paper but Barber is a stud and the other 3 are maybe's should I pull the trigger?
 
as much as i hate the cowgirls ( i dont draft any cowboy players on my squad) i would reject that trade. Barber will be a stud. Grant is hurt Jacobs is ok but Barber is a stud.
 
Jacobs and Graham....maybe
Jacobs and Grant....hell no

It's not that Grant isn't good, but on GB, he will be one of the only options they have on offense. He'll have a bullseye on his back and I'm not sure if he'll last all year.

And we know Jacobs hasn't played a full season yet. He has potential to be just as good as Barber, but you want somebody more durable if you're going to trade Barber

Wouldn't call Barber a beast, but he is a good back that doesn't mind playing with injuries. He's a gamer. Meaning, he would not sit if he had some little BS injury like those other guys. If he's not playing, you know the injury is for real. Hate the Cowboys too, but I would not trade him

nope. Barber is good on his own compared to any of the combos you would get...Graham may not be in as much with Dunn there and when Cadillac comes back, it would be hard to get good numbers from him on a week by week basis. Grant's got hamstring trouble, and while Jacobs did good last week, Barber will most likely be used more...No matter who your other RBs are (since you didn't disclose that info), you're better off keeping Barber.

i'm a FF rookie compared to some here, but i would make that trade IF it was marion barber for both brandon jacobs AND earnest graham.

marion barber is a punishing runner, but he already has bruised ribs after week 1.

it's a gamble, but i'd do it.
 
my other backs are lendale white who is splittig carries and willis mgahee and ray rice as a handcuff
 
I wouldn't do it. Your RB game is straight with Lendale White and Marion Barber. I wouldn't fuck with it.
 
Lendale White will be overtaken by Chris Johnson. watch

Dal might end up with the best record in the NFC and sit Barber in the playoffs.
 
true, they are about dead even fantasy points-wise...but i like CJ's upside a whole lot better...and yes, as of right now, their carries are about dead even split.

CJ - 202 Rush Yards, 46 Rec Yards, 1 Rec TD
LW - 99 Rush Yards, 0 Rec Yards, 2 Rush TD

It's looking that way...Which won't be good for me this year since I ended up with White on my Fantasy squad...

Here's an offer that I was given...I was offered Brandon Marshall and Jamarcus Russell for Peyton Manning basically...Now the catch is that I do have a high-rated QB at #2...would you take the deal?
 
All depends on the League Settings. If it's set up where the QB gets significantly more points compared to other positions, I would turn it down (but I turn down 99% of offers anyway). But if it's a league where there is parity in the settings, meaning a WR could score just as much as any other position, then I would take it. Especially if I already had a good QB on my roster. Unfortunately, most leagues either have default settings or very close to default settings. So QBs get more points that other positions even if they have shitty games and the other position players have good ones.
 
Thanks for the advice I kept Barber and made another trade with the guy I gave up Donald Driver and Houshmenzadeh for Santana Moss and Chris chambers now my squad is straight
