I'm in a 10 man league and currently have a 5-1/5-0 record. My team is as follows:
Hasselbeck/Favre
L. Johnson, Westbrook, C. Taylor, B. Jacobs, C. Benson
Roy Williams, TJ Housh, Coles, Branch, R. Brown (loaded here of course)
Gates/Owens
Gould/Feely
Atlanta/STL
Guy in last place in other division wants to deal me a 2-for-1. He's offering Tomlinson for Westbrook and Housh. Obviously, I can afford to give up Housh. So on paper, it looks like a great move for me by swapping out an injury-hampered Westbrook for Tomlinson. However, the reason I haven't jumped on it is because I have to think long term. My concern is that when our playoffs start (week 13-16 of NFL regular season), will the Chargers rest LT for the playoffs? They have a solid backup in Turner who already takes carries from LT. I just don't want to be in a position where I'm one game away from my Super Bowl or in the Super Bowl only to have LT ride the pine because the Chargers have a birth sewed up.
Thoughts? He's desperate today so I'd have to give an answer soon to make this happen.
