So I have recently joined a Fantasy Football Keeper League. I have always done 1 year leagues through Yahoo (been doing it for over 10 years) but this is my first Football Keeper league.

I have taken over a team that is plain and simply terrible. 0-9 is my current record. The league uses a standard lineup for offense but incorporates defences players as well (ie DL, DB, etc). I love a challenge and definitely have my work cut out for me here.

My defence is pretty good. My offense is brutal. My RB's are all basically backups through out the league. I need an upgrade there and am looking at trading off defensive players to acquire a RB.

My question, do RB's hold more value because they are RB's? Basically, if I am trying to trade away a DL who has as many points as a RB (both in total points and avg PPG), are most people expecting more in return because they are dealing the RB?

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
