Coach Tuesday Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 My roster (don't laugh): QB: P. Manning Brooks McNair RB: D. Davis L. Jordan Cadillac WR: Moulds Branch Mason bunch of losers TE: Cooley H. Miller I've been offered Antonio Gates and Barlow (who is now averaging over 4 yards per carry) for LaMont Jordan; the same owner also has offered me Gates and Eli Manning for Payton Manning. Do I do it? Standard scoring, but I'd love to plug Gates into my lineup and not worry about the TE spot, and Peyton's been a disappointment (but I hate trading low value). HELP!

HELP! 481905[/snapback] I'd be tempted on the Manning for Manning and Gates deal. They have almost identical scores right now and there's no reason to believe it won't stay that way with Indy stressing the run and defense more this year. You'll also be getting a top receiving threat in Gates. Jordan is a better option that Barlow, as defenses will still need to respect Collin's arm but probably won't care much about Alex Smith's.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 I wouldn't do it--especially not this week with Jordan facing our very sorry Buffalo run defense. I like your team. Peyton will be great to have down the stretch. And don't underestimate Heath Miller--the Steelers are really looking to get him involved and he's started to get more touches. The way this season is going Heath Miller may end up with more TD's than Gates. If anything, try to move Caddy or Jordan for another WR.
