Well, is it worth it? Olandis might be the starting RB, but for Detroit....with joey harrington and that pass happy offense. Meanwhile Crumpler got me a good solid outing last week, far more than most other TEs. Whats the opinion?

So, you mean Olandis for Crumpler? Really hard to say with that one. Things may change for Crumpler once Vick gets back, but still he is usually a good TE to have. As for Olandis Gary, who knows. The projections for him are all over the place. If you desperately need a Running Back then it may be a good trade, but otherwise I'd hold off on it until you see Gary actually do something this season.

Right, I have Crumpler. I dont really have a solid RB, although I have great everything else. Theres like 0 RBs left to pick up. You think Gary would average more points that Crumpler?

If Gary is named the starter and gets the bulk of the carries then more than likely he will outpoint Crumpler, but that's not important when considering this trade. Think this way...would your increase in running back stats offset your loss in tight end stats with this trade? Who are you other RB's and TE's? I would only do this trade if you have no one decent at RB and have a good backup TE.

My only other "starting" RB is Duce Staley, not really a point powerhouse. I have Kris Mangum as a backup, hes the starter for CAR. He wont bring in nearly the points as Crumpler will, but hell always bring in a few. Is Gary starting? I thought he was. I need to look into that.

You have Duce Staley as your only starter? Do you have like 25 teams in your league or what? What does the rest of your team look like?

dude, dump owens for a stud RB if you can. I like Owens and all, but his value is high right now after a good game, and how long do you think Garcia's back will hold up for? Go for the big trade, RB>>WR.

Owens didnt have a good first game. He should still be a solid numbers guy. Its a tough one. I won this week despite my 3 WRs getting me next to 0 points.
