Vjax trade!

[haydn239]

Are Vjax owners looking to sell high? With a potential looming suspension as well as the uncertainty of trade talks and where he may land, was wondering how other owners felt about his value right now? I am looking to acquire Vjax in one of my leagues. 12 team PPR:
Number of Starting QBs: 1
Number of Starting RBs: 2-3

Number of Starting TEs: 1-3
Number of Starting Defs: 1

Roster:

I would try Braylon and one of the RB's you mentioned for VJax as a starting offer. Talk Braylon and the fact that he is in a contract year up...

Most def a good start point...you think the value with the 2011 1st and if i can get J. Jones is a pretty balanced trade?

It's tough to say right now considering VJax's contract situation. The 2011 WR class is looking really nice right now so I would try to include something else if possible.

Now is definitely the time to buy Vjax, but as an owner I'd turn down anything that involved Braylon and either of those backs. Doesn't mean you shouldn't send it as a starting point to see if the owner is worried.

This plus the fact that he is rumored to be sitting out 10 games in 2010 and a possible lock out in 2011. If you want him I think the time to buy him is now. Someone will definitely be afraid and want to deal him.

I think he's a good WR, but not in the top 10. So I don't like your offer, especially a 2011 1st in the mix. Let's say he gets traded to a team with a suspect QB? He only caught 68 balls last year with Rivers tossing the rock deep. He gets traded and his reception total could drop as well and he falls into the WR2/WR3 category?!

I wouldn't try to move Braylon now. I think you'd be selling short cuz his percieved value is down right now. I happen to be a Braylon believer and since he's in a contract year and I'm expecting a bounce back year I'd sit on him. wait till his value goes up and if you still wanna upgrade then go for it.

I have VJax on a team, and I won't be trading him for anything less than full value. I've gotten some lowball offers (like VJax for Pierre Thomas), but I'm quick to deflect them & tell the other owners to come knocking once VJax plays a few games.

But on the team where I have VJax, I'm pretty stacked at WR, so I can weather the storm.

my league is interesting. Vjax is on his final yr and cant be resigned. it'll be interesting to see if he tries to trade him to get any value at all. i know i would but my league tends to hold players and lose them to free agency. i have one of the stronger teams, but i'm also in by far the toughest division, so its not assured that i'll make the playoffs, so i'm thinking of offering a conditional trade, my 1st if he plays at all this fantasy season that changes to a 3rd if he sits out the whole season.

Braylon was in a contract year in 2009, too, and that resulted in a whopping 45 receptions, 680 yards, and 4 TDs. Count me as not a Braylon believer.

He also got traded to a new team durring the season. he didn't have training camp to build repoire (sp?) with his new ROOKIE QB. Besides, what happens to his value if he goes to a seattle or San Diego next yr. its a possibility

Highly unlikely you are looking at a lockout. The owners and union have already begun talks regarding a 6 year deal. No one in the NFL is foolish enough to have a lockout season when the league is #1 in the sports world by such a significant margin.

I agree and more importantly I hope we are right...
