Who got the better end of this fantasy football trade? Brian Westbrook, Ben Rothlesberger and Randle-el. for?

Question

For Peyton Manning, Anquan Boldin and Lamont Jordan.

Answer 1

I would take the Westbrook side.  It is hard to get a top 5 player which Westbrook is.  The reason I would take this is my concern over Manning's knee.

Answer 2

Whoever got Manning, Boldin, and Jordan.

Manning is better than Big Ben.

Westbrook is better than Jordan

Boldin is better than Randle-El

Answer 3

That is pretty close - Manning is better than Big Ben and Anquan Boldin is way better than Randle-El (but is injury prone) but Westbrook is lightyears ahead of Lamont Jordan. I would probably like to see who else each team had but I think on face value it seems like a dead heat.

Answer 4

Randel El is not that great for fantasy and peyton scores a lot more than rothlesberger but westbrook could make up for both of them

Answer 5

Lamont Jordan and Randle-El are undrafted in most leagues, so that makes the trade Ben Roethlisberger and Brian Westbrook for Peyton Manning and Anquan Boldin.

Personally, I like the Big Ben/Westbrook side because you get a top 5 QB and a top 5 RB.  Manning is a better QB right now, but Ben is closing the gap quickly and his numbers could be similar to Manning's this year.  Boldin isn't even a top 10 WR, while Westbrook is going in the top 5 of most drafts.

I think this is a no-brainer on the side getting Ben/Westbrook.  I hope that's you!
