Excellent.

Lol. I love trading, my league has had a total of 6 trades this season, and I've been involved in 4 of them. My record is 4-1 so I guess I've done okay. Trading Clinton Portis for Ronnie Brown was a big mistake though.
Kennison, terrible fantasy player. The last 2 seasons I have drafted him and dropped him off my team after 3 weeks.

As did the guy who was trying to unload him on me. But that's not saying much because he also gave up on Bush too.
My big issue in one of my leagues is I have Hines Ward and Pittsburgh is just not cutting it this year. I'm hoping he has a decent game this week so I can unload him soon. Oh, and I have McMichael who has also been dogging it up.

Maybe try a Hines Ward for Randy Moss trade?
Pretty even so far, but if Moss gets traded to a team with an actual QB his value could go way up.

You traded Portis for R.Brown?
I read one of your earlier posts that you downgraded your RB's to gain at QB and WR. I suspect you haven't been doing this for very long.
Rule 1 of FF: RB's are king. Do what ever you can to strengthen your RB's. QB's and even WR's are more easily plucked off the waiver wire (assuming your league has a WW).
Does your league have any openings? I could use some spending money this spring.

Players rarely get traded during the NFL season - especially players with large salaries.
If you need advice managing a fantasy football team, you should check out footballguys.com. This is by far the best site for FF on the planet. They'll charge you $20 a year, but it's an investment.

Someone has offered me Shaun Alexander in exchange for Ahman Green. What in the heck do I do?
I start 2 RB's every week, and right now I have Green, Gore, and Kevin Jones. So I have the depth to wait for Alexander to get healthy. Only problem is, the team that made the offer I face this week, and giving them Ahman Green helps them immensly, as they have Alexander injured and Edgerrin James on bye.
my record is 7-1, so I can probably afford a loss, should I accept? I am leaning towards accepting.

You might have the last laugh. Alexander is hoping to play this week. That doesn't mean he will, but there's a chance he'll play. Even if he doesn't should be a good deal for you in the long run. I don't know how your league's playoff is structured, but that's when this trade could really pay off.

Our playoffs are in weeks 15 and 16 in the NFL, so my league has played 8 of its 14 weeks before playoffs.
Alright, time to accept.
