Never said anything about being a red zone target. Obviously Antonio Brown is a much better play in PPR leagues, but there are other ways to get in the end zone than just being a huge jump ball receiver. Size and height certainly help, but route running, the ability to gain separation, speed, and offensive scheming are also ways that smaller receivers can score on any given play

Wes Welker is 5'9 and has 3 seasons of at least 7 touchdowns.

Steve Smith is 5'9 and has 6 seasons with at least 7 touchdowns and another with 6.

Santana Moss is 5'10 and has 5 seasons of at least 6 touchdowns.

Percy Harvin is 5'11 and has 3 seasons (out of 4) of at least 5 touchdowns.

Greg Jennings is 5'11 and has 4 seasons of at least 9 touchdowns.

I could go on.

of course it is possible, but I'm just saying that Antonio Brown hasnt showed that he has the ability to score TD's yet and people should be aware of that risk when they are trading for him.

Could you have a look at this question I made in a separate thread?

I recently traded away BJGE and then lost Williams to injury, so right now I've only got McCoy and SJax as starting RB's with D Richardson, Vereen and Best as backups.

I'm in discussions with the guy owning McFadden about a trade. It seems like it would take something like Nicks + LaFell to get it done, but I'm not sure if it really helps me that much.

Lineup before trade:
QB: Rivers
RB: McCoy, SJax
WR: AJ Green, Nicks, Torrey Smith
Flex: Stevie Johnson
TE: Daniels

Bench: D Richardson, Vereen, Best, LaFell, Pitta

After trade:
QB: Rivers
RB: McCoy, McFadden
WR: AJ Green, Torrey Smith, Stevie Johnson
Flex: McFadden
TE: Daniels

The twist is that McFadden is done with his bye week, so without a trade I will have to start Vereen (or Best) for a week or two.

LaFell is droppable at this point so really its just Nicks we are concerned about. I would probably do this trade.

I traded SJax+D.Richardson for FJax+Green today, and I've also got Jahvid Best stashed on the bench.

Lineup now would be:
QB: Rivers
RB: McCoy, FJax
WR: AJ Green, Nicks, Torrey Smith
Flex: Green/Best/Stevie Johnson
TE: Daniels

I think I'm better off holding on to Nicks and trying to package 2-3 of Fjax, Green, Best, Stevie and Torrey for an elite RB. Agree?

Alex Green? I think I like that move, but who knows how the Packers will split up the carries this week and going forward. FJax will have a rough go of it this week, but should be as least as valuable as SJax for most of the season.

I'd agree that keeping Nicks was a better move given the deal you received.

yeah I had a good look at SJax schedule and decided to get rid of him before it was too late. It is a 14 team league, so just the fact that I can now package 2 RB's and a WR for an upgrade should give me alot of leverage.

Not sure of who to target though. Could you rank the top 10 rb's for the rest of the season?
