Tony Gonzales'z fantasy value

[lordtyranus]

What sort of WR is TG's value comparable to? Something like a terell owens, perhaps?

HELL NO are you crazy?

 

[blurredvision]

Nope. Don't do it. Did you happen to see C-Mart today? It was against the Bengals ugly defense today, but 196yds rushing is nothing to sneeze at. Plus, Walker is no substitute for Harrison.

 

[midwestfisherman]

DON'T DO IT!!!!

 

[hugobomber]

NO WAY MAN. Thats just stupid.

lets just say harrison=green
but
curtis>walker
he ran for 196yrds and 2 tds. next week is against san deigo. oh boy. im going to enjoy that games. 150yrds?

 

[lordtyranus]

Heh, thanks guys. The guy is desperate for WR, ill try to go ahman green for marvin harrison straight up.

I wasn't under the impression that C Mart was very good, even with this breakout game. Should I trade him soon while his value is high? I have depth in the RB department.

Trade Curtis while his value is high. The guy is old and plays for the Jets. A good schedule will give him a few breakout games, but if you can grab one of the top 3( Tomilson, Holmes, Green) the Curtis is not needed. Not to mention you have Lee Suggs and Kevin Jones. I like your RB depth. Get rid of Martin for someone like a Plaxico Buress.

With Maddox throwing to him? Doubtful. Plaxico was lucky to catch one pass today, with all of the throws going to Ward. Plaxico may prove to be a useful #2 receiver, but he's not near worth the value that Martin is right now.

If you really want to trade Martin, do it before Week 2, as his value is pretty high right now. Most people out there trade on numbers, not on potential.

 

[Izzo]

why do you need six rb's (jones, suggs, barber, martin, davis, and griffin)?? don't give up harrison for another one. 7 rb's on one team?

 

[lordtyranus]

Well, we have 2 starting RBs. This week, incidentally, I started Davis and Jones (probably the worst combo to start in hindsight). Figured Jones was the best shot vs the Bears defense.

The problem I have is that the league is only 8 players and I don't think I could trade any of the other backs alone for anybody worthwhile.

 

[Penguinus]

Curtis Martin's stock is peaking right now. I'd try and pull the trigger on a deal for him immediately. I just question whether or not he's an elite RB anymore, even with a big game against the Bengals... Ahman Green, on the other hand, is clearly a top-5 back. That said, Harrison will probably have a monster year also, so not sure if this is the exact deal you want to make.

Note:
2 WR on one team will kill you during Indy's bye week. So it would be nice to trade one of them sometime.

 

[spanky]

dont do it.

 

[lordtyranus]

up for new question

do u mean tony g's ranking amonst TE's? not much doubt that gonzo is probably the best fantasy TE.
or do u mean... would i trade owens for gonzo? if that is ur question... then the answer is hell no.

 

[poncherelli2]

Gonzo is so valuable because of the points he scores in the TE catagory. He wont net as many points as TO, but the difference between what he earns and what the other TE earns is much greater than what TO earns versus other wideouts. There are several elite WRs such as TO, Harrison, Ward, Moss... and then many good Recievers also. Its hard to find many point-earning TEs these days though.
