Westbrook&Bowe for Benson/Gage...would YOU?

[LoggedOut 10+ year member]

I'm basically the dude in my fantasy league, and i have the best team on paper. One of my friends in my league offered me a trade where i would get Cedric Benson and Justin Gage for Brian Westbrook and Dwayne Bowe. and im considering it. Bowe is a #1 receiver, but hes not gonna have a great season until he gets cassel back, and even then hes got no quarterback. Westbrook is gonna perform, but once week3 rolls around theres gonna be a lot more going on in that offense than runs. plus lesean mccoy is stellar. (and i have AP as my runningback)

league details are: 1 qb, 2 rb's 2 wr's and a flex position, TE, K, D/ST.

what it do?

Westbrook is fragile I doubt he makes the season, but at this point right now, They do not have a QB and Westbrook will be the major player in their next game. I would keep him and play him this weekend VS New Orleans, I don't want it to happen but he will run all over my Saints team this weekend. Then I might look at a good trade. Just my 2 cents.

youre probably right, im just disappointed in his performance week 1. i mean i dont think he touched the ball in the first quarter. i drafted your boy pierre thomas for my flex and was expecting like 20 pts out of him...too bad he got hurt, i played ted ginn instead and got 2. haha great

i wouldnt. bowe is only going to get better and i feel benson and gage over acheived this week and their numbers are going to drop. as for westbrook, he is capable of 30+pts any given week and is usually good for atleast 1td a week and 100+ total yards.

i say keep em. benson is a beast and bowe is nasty ,but untill he gets a qb, not sure if its gonna turn out the way you want. but either way, itll turn out good. see what week 2s turn out is..thats if you have the time to wait. even with AP, your still good.

Gage also had an exceptional first week which was not predicted. I'm curious as to if he will continue this level of game.
