Who is the best runningback I can get if I am willing to trade these players?

Question

Terry Glenn

Roddy White

Shaun Alexander

Rudi Johnson

Phillip Rivers

Answer 1

This usually isn't really possible to predict without knowing the full rosters on each team to analyze what other people might need and even then personal preferences and prejudices would come in to play. In this case, there isn't much value here. The only ones I would be likely to have any interest in are White and Johnson, but I wouldn't give up a better back in exchange for the pair - especially since I'd have to drop another player to accept a two for one deal. If I was really hurting for a WR, I might trade the #4 RB on a team I owned for him, but there are usually viable WRs available on the FA list. You could probably get DeAngelo Williams or one of the rookies.

Make some offers - some people accept odd deals sometimes, but don't really expect much.

Answer 2

You could probably get Cedric Benson. LOL.

Answer 3

Phillip rivers, rudi johnson and roddy white might be able to get you someone like thomas jones. If you are looking for a 2nd tier back just keep johnson, cuz with those guys you're not gonna get a no.1 unless the guy you're trading with is a complete and total idiot.

Shaun Alexander is a wasted roster spot since he's unemployed and terry glenn might be on his way out of dallas.

Answer 4

Well, you are peddling c**p, with all due respect.

In a very deep league, Phillip Rivers and Roddy White have enough value to merit a decent second tier RB.

Most astute managers are unwilling to take "kitchen sink" trades involving second-hand talent.  I mean Alexander doesn't even have a job right now.

My guess is that you'll need to wait until the pre-season is well underway.  Hope for the best.

Answer 5

You should be able to pair a couple of em and maybe get a RB that could break out, perhaps Kevin Smith from Detroit or Matt Forte from Chicago?

Answer 6

Glenn has injury issues and Alexander is unemployed. Rivers and Johnson were injured last year and are average players at best. White had a nice year in '07 but a rookie QB could make it hard to match those numbers this year.

I think the best you could hope for would be to package a couple of them for a 2nd-tier RB such as Jamal Lewis (CLE) or Thomas Jones (NYJ).

Personally, I wouldn't have drafted any of those players.

Answer 7

you could probably get a back with a big upside, but not a starter, go after kenny waston, ciny's back up. Or a ryan torain out of denver, mayby chester taylor?

Answer 8

Well Terry Glenn and Shaun Alexander aren't even going to do much, if anything next year so they aren't much value. But if the guy really needs a good QB and WR, then you could probably get a pretty good one for Phillip Rivers and Rodny White. Maybe a nice Brandon Jacobs, Ronnie Brown or Fred Taylor. WHo are all very good RBs.

Answer 9

Emmitt Smith or Reno Mahe
