Peyton Manning for Philip Rivers and Zac Stacy??

[daneault23]

I have Manning right now. I should do this, right? 6 points/passing TDs 7 points/rushing TDs

[daneault23]

I should add that my starting RBs right now are Murray and Trich

[daneault23]

Was also offered Matt Ryan/Pierre Thomas or Cam Newton/Reggie Bush for Peyton.

[Speedy88]

Cam Newton and Reggie Bush in a heartbeat. Cam will be a top 5 QB rest of the season and Bush is a legit RB1.

[daneault23]

Good points, but Newton plays Saints 2x in playoffs (improved D) while Rivers faces 2 bad defenses during the playoffs. Also, if I get Newton/Bush, the guy who is in 1st will get Manning who has the most points out of any player in the NFL. Not exactly, something I want to do.

[Cross]

Peyton May rest befor playoffs too, do it!

[daneault23]

While getting Newton/Bush may be a little bit better than Rivers/Stacy (most trade analyzers think so), I think overall the best thing would be to get Rivers/Stacy simply because I would be giving the guy who is already ahead the best player in the NFL, and he also has LeSean McCoy so he would one of the best QB/RB combos in the league.

dont trade peyton bro. you will regret it.

I have no hope of doing anything the rest of the season with the RB's I have. I need a RB ASAP and the only way I can get anyone good is through a trade.

I hate both of these trades, Cam/Bush is the better of the 2 but I hate both. Manning for Rivers and Stacy is an OK deal take it if you think Peyton is going to be hampered by his injuries.

I've literally gone back and forth for hours with all the possibilities and how they will improve my/others teams since our trade deadline is tomorrow, and I think I'm actually going to ride Peyton out here. He is the best player in the league fantasy wise, and although I haven't been getting much production from my RB's, Peyton is very consistent week in and week out with the points, while Newton/Rivers are not. I could also possibly pickup Donald Brown or Brian Leonard on waivers still, so I think I may go that route and drop TRich.

[Speedy88]

I think you gotta do it. There is no way you are going to get through playoffs with DeMarco Murray and Trent Richardson as your starting RBs. Between those two, you could get a combined 10 points on any given week. Trent Richardson is almost completely off the fantasy radar.

I'd do either one, but if I had to choose I'd go with Cam and Bush. Personally, I think Stacey has overachieved a bit and will settle down as more of a 8-13 point guy a week (solid RB2). I think Rivers overachieved early on too. He won't be having too many more 3 TD games or 400 yard games. Cam should be a solid the rest of the way, I wouldn't even worry too much about the Saints. Bush is a RB1 every week regardless of the matchup.

[Mitchell88]

I would trade Peyton for Bush and new in but it would be hesitantly. I do think Peyton will rest before the playoffs but I also think that he put some great numbers all the time. it basically comes down to how bad you need that running back if you do then make the trade

[me-first]

I would probably do the Rivers/Stacey deal although Fisher is really high on Benny Cunningham and is looking to get him more carries as the season goes on..

i actually agree with juiced, it seems like everyone on here is in a rush to trade peyton...why? hasnt he carried your team to where it is now? dance with the girl you took to the prom, try to build up your RB either through waivers or trades elsewhere...i just feel like, especially in a 6 point TD league, you will not get back the value you give with peyton

The whole problem with trying to build up my rbs through trades and waivers is that there isnt any good rbs on waivers Peyton is pretty much all I have so he is all anyone would really want besides Murray and Jeffrey so I feel I need to trade manning to get a good rb in return.

[EmpireMaker]

go ahead and take the Manning for Rivers and Stacy deal if you feel you need another good RB badly

[daneault23]

The Newton/Bush owner backed out at the last minute, so I went ahead with Rivers/Stacy, but the trade won't go through until Monday so I'll still have Manning for this week.

[LT Profits]

Tough call. Purely on face value, horrible trade. But based on your roster, nice upgrade at RB and as you mentioned Rivers vs. bad defenses eases the pain of losing Peyton.

This is probably the only way I would let go of Peyton.



OK , I just saw the trade you made. Good Luck.

[playersonly69]

I would keep Payton no matter what

[will2survive]

Phillip Rivers will always be a losing quarterback

Phillip Rivers will always be a losing quarterback

Who cares if he loses, if he throws 3 or 4 TDs this week.
