I go back and forth on which one I like.

Push for me.

if you just look at the players involved only I think the mendy/wallace side has much more upside but if you look at the rosters the trade makes sense for both teams.......push.

I would agree if it were not for the starting requirement of 3 WR's. Roddy White is a top 10 WR (I have him #7) which makes it a tough call for me.

Wallace is promising...but far from a lock as anything more than an upside guy with potential.

This is a good one Rob. I really struggled with my decision.

Greatly...I say no, I don't prefer either side greatly over the other. Both teams help each other in different yet key ways. I think the trade makes a lot of sense for you both. One point for every 2 receptions takes some of the value away from Roddy and Reggie. The top tier of WRs in this format top out around 250 pts per season. Only a great season with double digit touchdowns would push above that 250 point limit. Roddy has that potential.

IMO the winner depends largely on the goal of the owner. Also we're only seeing a sampling of the two rosters...to finish this tale we need QB and TE.

Team A - Mendy side has RR/MJD/Hightower/McKNight and Maclin and Dez - winners in the short term by adding Roddy (Reggie is a throw in/bye filler with limited value outside of ppr). This owner can afford to move Mendy with 2 of the top 4 RBs. Roddy gives the team a top scoring WR to bridge the gap until Dez pays off. Combine the ppg differential Roddy has over Wallace with the massive ppg advantage of MJD and Rice and this team should be one of the favorites to win this season.

Team B - Roddy side has Colston/Crabs and Knowshon/ahmad/Ronnie/Jahvid - winners in the long run with Mendy and if Wallace keeps going up up up. This owner solidifies his RB position for many seasons to come without sacrificing any of his young WR talent. This team should be a playoff team, maybe even a title contender with a strong QB/TE.

I believe both teams will be competitive for a while. If I had to choose a side it would be Team B strictly based on the players involved - Mendy and Wallace are a better pair than Roddy and Reggie. But it's really very close when you properly factor in the entire roster.

Close call, but I'd take the Mendenhall/Wallace side. Good deal for both teams though.

Sorry Felllas...I spoke incorrectly..very late night post..it is a 10 tm league.

AS for QB/TE Rick...

Roddy has ARodg/ASmith/MStafford and Gonzo/FDavis and Owen
Mendy has Schaub/Henne/Clausen and Keller/Olsen and RGronk

there is no Flex..its that 3rd WR instead.


btw I am trying to Acquire Roddy Fellas.

I don't know. I am going to go against the grain here and say the little upgrade you are making at RB isn't worth the downgrade you take at WR. Plus you are trading for two guys on a team that will definately have some offensive struggles the first few games with no roethlisberger. And I'm not really a mendenhall fan. He was outplayed in college by Pierre Thomas and I think it will only be a matter of time before Dwyer is in a rbbc with him.

[Steelersfan]

I think it's a very even deal Rob, go with your gut...

[Salty Dawg]

offer made.
I like my gut telling me MJD,RR and Roddy

Thanks for all the feedback fellas.

[GridIronFavre]

In a vacuum, I would prefer the Mendenhall side. However, when both rosters are considered, this is a deal I like for both teams.

[remy420]

Sorry I thought you were on the other side of the deal. Great deal for you
