Need a QB

Postby EAGLES » Fri Nov 09, 2018 6:22 am

Typically, I don’t worry about QBs in my 1QB leagues; however, Carr has been god awful. If I want to compete down the stretch I’ll need a QB upgrade.

Trade deadline is this Saturday

The Russell owner wants a solid RB on top of Carr. Big Ben owner is interested but asked for James White straight up which I declined. Brees owner is interested in moving him, but I think his asking price won’t be realistic considering he initially wanted one of my top 3 WRs.

Would you sacrifice any players to upgrade at QB? Any ideas come to mind? I’m currently running with Fitz as my QB which is fine if they keep him as the starter but i don’t see that happening.

Looks like all those teams could use WR help. Not sure why an owner with Wentz and Dak qpuldnt want to move Big Ben for Alshon or Kirk...

No way am I paying that for Ben but if they're not selling for that than I am definitely not interested!

I'm with Jigga. No way would I pay White straight up for Big Ben. He definitely needs WR help, so I do not see why he wouldn't do Alshon straight up. I wouldn't worry about working with him then if that is what he is asking for.

I think White and Carr for Wilson is a better trade if you were to trade White. Wilson has turned it on lately, plus he is a good asset to have in dynasty.

With the way Brees is playing, I see that owner still asking for a top WR, so it will probably be too steep of a price for you,

Brees owner has Mahomes and his 2nd best RB is Ingram and 3rd WR is Fitz? Carr and Lindsay or Alshon should be plenty to get it done

When you have the ability to obtain a top QB, absolutely. It is the single most disregarded position in this game, but if you want to win consistently you have to have a good QB.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I agree. I gave up my 1st round pick last year for Carr and a 2017 2nd (which was used in a package to get Bell). My 1st round pick was going to be Hunt. And we all know how that’s turned out which is why I am hesitant when dealing for QBs.

Looks like talks with the Big Ben owner will not amount to anything. He wants a 3 down back for Ben :wall:

I was just in the same boat so I shipped off Aaron Jones for Matt Ryan. Maybe you could do the same for Wilson?

I messaged the Wilson owner but haven’t heard back yet. Trying to see what I can add to Carr to get Wilson.

The Big Ben owner just replied again and said to send over an offer that I think is fair (this was after I explained why I wouldn’t do the straight up trade with James White. Basically told him White’s been keeping up with Ben’s production minus Ben’s big game last night which offers me a big advantage at the RB slots considering we can start 3).

So you have some solid RBs that you could trade. Maybe see if Lindsay could get the job done?

I'd first ask about Winston. He could be far cheaper than any of the others, protects your Fitzpatrick player, and could re-emerge in the future.

I’d target the Brees /Mahomes owner. Go after Brees, and now, sell him on the fact you “down” on him now that Dez is out, wrs are thin in N.O. I’d offer up Alshon, Lindsay or Jones for either qb. I’d offer more for Mahomes and only a player for Brees with his age.

I agree with going after Brees but I almost always never fall for the "your player isn't that valuable/good/worth it"

Then why are you coming to me and trying to trade for him?

I’m thinking of offering Christian Kirk for Brees since the Brees owner has Fitzgerald. Not enough? Not really trying to pay too much for Brees considering he could be done very soon. I have a trade out to the Russell owner, waiting to hear back. And Big Ben owner is interested again, just have to send him over an offer
