I joined a league with some of my fraternity brothers ($10 buy-in, winner-take-all), and I happened to miss the draft because of a meeting.
With 12 owners, I was somehow lucky enough to pick up Carson Palmer in the second round. The league rewards QB's, as they get 1 point for every 20 yards throwing. The league is harder on WR's, as they get 1 point for every 20 yards receiving instead of 10 yards receiving. RB scoring is the usual.
I am interested in picking up another RB because my only good one is Cadillac Williams, and we are allowed a WR/RB position. So, would it be prudent for me to trade away Palmer in exchange for Bulger and Barber? I'm thinking that Bulger should throw for about the same amount of yards as Palmer, just with less TD passes. That difference should be made up by the addition of Barber.
Here is my team so far...
QB C. Palmer
QB J. Kitna
RB C. Williams
RB C. Brown (ugh)
WR A. Boldin
WR R. Wayne
TE J. Shockey
W/R D. Bennett
K N. Rackers
DEF Redskins
DEF Colts
Bench players: L. Evans (WR), C. Taylor (RB), B. Griese (QB) hoping he can win the starting role, M. Pollard (TE), W. Lundy (RB)
Update: The guy rejected my offer of Palmer for Bulger and Barber. He countered w/ a trade that didn't even include those two. Unreal that he thinks I would even think about accepting.
