That's a dumb criteria. Apply that to Miles Austin last year and you're the one crapping his own pants. Foster is this year's Miles Austin. He SHOULD take the trade. Jacksonville is going to pass a lot because of their leaky defense, and their passing game is shitty when they can't run play action.

consistancy is a dumb criteria. ok.

Yeah people have break out years, thats what makes the game fun. Im conservative when it comes to someone who proves it for like 5 years and someone who has a breakout game. Also I dont know the rest of the team either so, im much more conservative on the advice. Im giving an opinion so relax.

Hey im 2-0 in my $150 buy in league...and just traded Nanee from San Diego for Brandon Marshall....ill stick with getting Marshall the guy doing it for 5 years for a guy who played his first consecutive games at a high level

Legedu Naanee has a lower targetting priority than Gates and Floyd.
Foster is the #1 RB and has no timeshare.
#1 RBs/wrs/etc get the most touches, which means more points.
Your Marshall comparison fails to address Foster vs. Jones-Drew.
That guy is also a moron, as he should have realized that unless the WR is Miles Austin, Reggie Wayne and maybe a couple others, WRs will have those type of days.

Both Foster and Jones-Drew are #1s, so they tie there. But Foster is on a dynamic offense while Jones Drew is on a shitty team who's going to be facing a difficult schedule in the near future. Foster is on ZBS scheme, and he runs very well in it.

Of course, this was one week ago, but RBs do not just run for 200+ yards out of the blue. It's an indicator that shows he is capable of producing well every week. That, in turn, reduces the perceived risk.

Hahaha... yeah i was going to comment on that trade too. Naanee for Marshall? Easy money!

Naanee had a good first game, but half of those yards and his score was off a busted coverage against KC. Rivers is going to look to Gates, then Floyd- Naanee is talented, but I think he'll be competing every week with Davis and Crayton for the leftovers.

I can't believe the league didn't veto that trade!

Yeah, that the scary thing still pending. Its a friends league so I dont think it will be. But the kicker is he approached me with it...I wasnt seeking it, so what can I do...we went back and forth on a couple things, he chose this over Mike Wallace my original offer.:FIREdevil
