Rumor has it - A Proposition has been made...

So this week (in my Borderless League that I commish) I get my bye week players back, at least the important ones. However, this week I have a kicker and safety on bye so I went out to the waiver wire and picked up one of each to replace them with.

Well at least I tried. Each week it seems I have either a top choice or a second choice who gets picked up by somebody else before my turn. This week I lost out on Darren Sharper. So I still have a DB to look for.

And to top it all off, I still have a bunch of either second string or injured RB’s not contributing. Sheesh!

So, for the first time in three years, I am trying something new.

I am proposing a trade.

Devin Hester and Jason Campbell for Cedric Benson.

Hey Frankie, if you are reading this - Just press accept !

The other guy (Frankie) has a plethora of RB’s (AP, Thomas Jones, Willie Parker, Felix Jones, Ray Rice, Jamal Lewis) , and is a little thin at QB (Kyle Orton, Derek Anderson) depth and WR’s (Ted Ginn, Calvin Johnson, TO, Jeremy Maclin) .

Believe it or not, Jason has decent numbers this year and is almost equal to Cedric’s point total. He does go up against a week opponent this week which makes him attractive.

I still have Jay Cutler and Shaun Hill for QB’s and Reggie Wayne, Michael Crabtree, Jacoby Jones, Josh Cribbs, and DeSean Jackson for receivers). Now before you laugh, remember I am talking about a PPR league. So half my receivers actually catch the ball and the other half return kicks. Which is also what Devin does.

So, Frankie, you get an extra QB and another multi-dimensional and versatile player for the price of just one RB. Good Deal!

Meanwhile, here are my picks for this week.
