Should I make this trade in fantasy football?

Question

Im getting Braylon Edwards for Marques Colston.

I know im getting the better receiver in edwards, but the guy im trading with wants colston because he has brees and will get double the points if brees throws a td to colston.

Answer 1

Double check your bye weeks to make sure it won't hurt you and go with Edwards over Colston if you can.

I would also look to see when you play your trade partner, hopefully it's the week that the Saints are on bye.

If it's a really bad match up (ATL) then maybe go ahead and keep Colston to hopefully balance out Brees that week.

If you feel he's dead set on getting Colston then you may want to try and package one of your weaker bench players for another upgrade off of his team.

Answer 2

Take the deal and let him think what he wants. Sometimes that works but it really doesn't make that much differnce anyway.
