Lost Harvin-Need Some Help

Postby jbenz0208 » Sun Aug 04, 2013 7:47 am

As you can see in my sig I was fine at WR before but now without Harvin I'm in trouble and lacking a WR1. There are no real dominant teams in my league(I was top 3 with Harvin) so I can still compete having the best RBs/TE in the league but I should probably make a move and I now clearly lack depth. I listed a few options below, what should I do?

1-Stand pat with my WRs now, plug in Sanders, Streater, or Floyd on bye weeks.

2-Trade Rice for a WR. I would trade Murray but he has absolutely no value in my league-I was offered Garcon for Murray and 2 2014 2nd rd picks. Who/what can I expect to receive back in terms of a WR and picks? Should I get an aging WR2 for this year? I was offered Andre for Franklin and a 2014 1st but think that's an overpay.

3-Hit the WW for a plug in WR. Our WW is closed until we get closer to the season but options available are Hartline, Lance Moore, Collie.

First thing I'll say is that Hartline and Lance Moore are better than DHB and Santonio Holmes. I'd make those pickups.

Next, I think Floyd, Sanders and even Streater are good depth but in a 10 team league they are not starters. Not to mention injury question marks surrounding Amendola and Nicks. Short is a very solid option though. I'd suggest trying to trade for an older guy, whose value will be a little lower but will put up points this year until Harvin is back. Guys like Reggie Wayne, Steve Smith (who seems to be dirt cheap in some of my leagues) and even Anquan Boldin. I'd maybe look at Golden Tate too. He's not valued as highly from what I'm seeing as maybe he should be and would be an upgrade at WR4 for you. Also see if Greg Little is on the wire.

As far as what you should give up, you might be able to tempt someone with Andy Dalton given it's a 2QB league. Do not under any circumstances give up Rice. He's your best RB by far.

Charles?!?

I would not move Rice unless blown away. I would throw him out there and see if there is interest but no panic moves.

Try and keep Rice, Charles and Miller. See if the Foster owner will bite on Tate.

Thanks for the help guys.

Failblazer-the arian owner wants take but won't surrender first round value for him. also, he's thin at wr, not my best trade partner

Tripleaaron-i offered rice to the marshall owner(who's probably reading this post). he also owns cobb, dez, and roddy. ive asked for cobb or dez but he'll only trade marshall and won't give up much with him.

any other thoughts? terrible idea to stand pat?
