This trade is currently pending league approval..... My setup goes as follows
1 point per reception. 1 point per 20 rush yds/30 receive yards

I trade
Kevin Walter
Ronnie Brown

I get
Reggie Bush

Currently in first place with what should be one game plus points lead so I can afford the 1-2 week absence of Bush(Hoping it is just a one week off for him). Pending some byes next week plus the bush injury, here is what my lineup will read in week 11.

Kurt Warner
Calvin Johnson
TJ Houshmanzadeah
Larry Fitzgerald
LT
Earnest Graham
Reggie Bush
Owen Daniels
WR/RB Flex TBD per week(S Moss/Sproles ideal at the moment)
Akers
plus some weak defensive players

With that said, I feel confident that this move is for the better to look into the future of the league.... The guy trading Reggie has had 5 RB's go down and is in dire straits to try and save his season. No playoffs in this league and only green pastures ahead

Don't do it. Look at Brown's schedule coming up. It's a cake walk and he's also involving in the passing game. Walter and Brown give you more depth for what I see as minimal upgrade in Bush.

My friend, league trade approvals are a joke. I suggest you bring it up to your commissioner next season to waive the trade voting process.

The voter body is compromised of your league opponents, and therefore most will offer unreasonable and selfish veto's. Also, another big disparity is how owners value the individual players, it's all opinion based. While you may think Randy Moss is a god, other may see him as a challenged player in 08'.

All trades should only be approved between the two trading parties and nobody else.

Where in any league rules does it state that a trade MUST be equal in value. Someone may trade on a hunch, or like a weaker players upcoming schedule .

The ONLY reason the commissioner should veto the trade is if it's a clear case of collusion.


Good Luck
Joe

I say do it. He is a beast in PPR league's. Its like having an extra WR in your lineup. Ronnie Brown is up and down and if you take away his 6TD performance he's really done nothing that impressive. Plus Bush plays on a great offense and also has a cakewalk schedule.

I would do it. Brown may have a cakewalk of a schedule but McNabb is getting LJ Smith back and McNabb likes his TE. Look at last week. Plus Brown has DeSean Jackson to compete with for catches every week. With Bush, you have a WR, RB, and KR all in one. All opportunities to score TDs. With Brees on fire as of late, you should pick him up. Pick him up before next week though. If Bush plays against the Cheifs, he's going to light them up. Cheifs run D sucks. Even the backup RB on teams who play the Cheifs get double digits.

RONNIE Brown, not REGGIE Brown....

You've got the depth to pull off that trade. Walter is going to be buried on your bench anyway w/Johnson, Housh, and Fitz, so you're basically just doing Brown for Bush...I could go either way, I'm not a big fan of Bush, but he is doing better than I expected this year.
