Ask DR U: To Trade or Not to Trade?
Emily asks, I have been offered a trade in my fantasy league , and I am not sure if I should pull the trigger on it or not. I am stacked at running back, but not very loaded at wide receiver. Anyway, the trade offer is the following: I would give up Joseph Addai in exchange for Bernard Berrian. Should I do that trade?
DR U: I think if you truly are stacked at running back and need help at wideout, then you should look for a trade. However, I am not sure this trade presents enough of an upgrade to do this deal. I would continue to shop Addai to all the owners in your league and do not settle for anything less than a No. 1 fantasy receiver in return.
Ask DRU: Do I Draft T.O.?
Mike asks, I am considering drafting Terrell Owens towards the end of my upcoming fantasy draft. However, he has yet to sign with a team and our draft is tomorrow. Should I still draft T.O. anyway?
DR U: If you have Owens on your radar, go ahead and draft him even though he has yet to find a team. T.O. should be on an NFL roster sometime real soon. However, I would wait until about the eighth or ninth round before I would even look to draft Owens. There are plenty of safer receivers to draft over T.O., but in the later rounds, he is a low risk, high reward fantasy player.
Ask DR U: Worth a Look?
Kyle asks, I am considering drafting Vincent Jackson in the middle rounds, do you think he is worth a look this year?
DR U: Jackson is well worth a look. However, he is going to miss a decent percentage of the NFL season in 2010. Therefore, I would not suggest drafting him prior to the seventh round. If your fantasy team can survive the time that Jackson has to ride the pine, he should give your team a big boost in the middle of the fantasy season. Bottom line, I would not be eager to draft Jackson, but at the same time, I would not be afraid to snag him in the eight or ninth round.
