UPDATE: When you guys are posting your trade offers/available players in the comments, can you (at least once in the comments) please also put your team name in there somewhere? Since the poster names don’t match the team names, it’s tough for me to keep them all straight – especially with 14 teams. Thanks! -Chris
Lots of trade talk in last week’s open thread, but no trades. There are still lots of folks who need help and are willing to deal. In the interest of fairness, I’m going to adopt the policy of not putting any proposals/available players here in the main thread and save all of that for the comments.
Let’s also not forget to use the actual trading block feature on Yahoo site as well.
I also thought it might be interesting to post the league’s actual point leaders vs. projected point leaders at each position. I realize some players have had bye weeks and some haven’t, so it’s not 100% accurate, but it might stoke some further conversation. These rankings are based on total fantasy points scored:
QB
Projected #1 Drew Brees
Actual #1 Matt Schaub
RB
Projected #1 Adrian Peterson
Actual #1 Adrian Peterson
WR
Projected #1 Larry Fitzgerald
Actual #1 Miles Austin (whoa)
TE
Projected #1 Jason Witten
Actual #1 Owen Daniels
TEAM DEFENSE
Projected #1 New York Giants
Actual #1 Minnesota Vikings
K
Projected #1 Stephen Gostkowski
Actual #1 Lawrence Tynes

Still in the market for a QB. Everyone is available for the right price. Please dont offer me Andre Caldwell for Andre Johnson though. Or John Carlson for Dallas Clark.
Oct 27, 2009 at 09:56:18
@KD
Tribe Slapahoe has Aaron Rodgers and Orton.
Sad Schaubs have P. Manning and Cassel.
CrownMeNow has Roethlisberger and Flacco.
Persianators have Brees and Hasselbeck.
DC has E. Manning and Romo.
Gerb’s Suckwads have Favre and McNabb.
Just trying to maybe help be a matchmaker. With the small roster sizes and most of the bye weeks gone, I imagine some of these guys would be willing to deal one of their QBs.
Oct 27, 2009 at 09:58:53
I am in the market for a TE.
I’m willing to include my current TE Greg Olsen in the deal.
I’m willing to deal:
RB Chris Johnson
RB Shonn Greene
…and I’ll look at any offers for any other positions as well.
Oct 27, 2009 at 10:35:45
Tunes was a good find for me on the waiver
crown me now. I will trade cooley and knowshon to you for gonzoand another throw in back. Who do you have
Oct 27, 2009 at 10:49:30
@Allen
Cooley is out for the season. Broken foot or ankle, can’t remember which.
Oct 27, 2009 at 10:53:20
@ Chris
Brent Celek for Olson/Green??
Oct 27, 2009 at 10:54:42
@KD
Got your trade proposal. Not sure if the upgrade of Andre Johnson over Marques Colston is enough to lose the rest of those players you included in the trade proposal.
Oct 27, 2009 at 11:08:02
@Gerb
That’s certainly not an unreasonable offer, but right now Celek has 36 fantasy points, and Olsen has 31. Not enough of an upgrade for me to deal Greene, at least not at this point.
Oct 27, 2009 at 11:16:10
@ Gerb
Ok, Make a counter offer. Thanks
@ Chris
I’m the Anti-Brett Christ. I cant deal for Favre.
Oct 27, 2009 at 11:21:38
i am steve tasker=bitch
yeah, i guess i need a TE now as well.
CROWN ME – i would love to have gonzo, but i cant trade moreno or i have no running back due to mendenhalls bye.
i would do this trade next week possibly??
i also have new england D and percy harvin which i want to trade for a RB or TE
Oct 27, 2009 at 12:41:13
Ok Im CrownMeNow
Here who is on the table on my roster.
QB – Big Ben
RB -Portis
TE – Tony G, Tony Scheffler, Kellen Winslow
WR – Larry Fitzgerald
Looking for RB & WR. Willing to do 2 for 1′s as well if fair.
Oct 27, 2009 at 12:48:39
Chris Johnson + Greg Olsen
Tony Scheffler + Clinton Portis
Oct 27, 2009 at 12:49:10
hmmm didn’t know [tab] = enter lol … but how bout that for a trade chris?
Oct 27, 2009 at 12:55:03
Chris Johnson 53 points
Greg Olsen 31 points
Clinton Portis 32 points
Tony Scheffler 24 points
I know these trades aren’t all based on points, but I don’t feel like that move would improve my team at all.
Make it Tony Gonzalez instead of Scheffler, and we might have something.
I might also be interested in B-Roth. Ryan has been okay, but I wouldn’t mind upgrading.
Oct 27, 2009 at 13:04:43
@LA26
How about this blockbuster? We each get a player that has a bye next week…
Ben Roethlisberger
Larry Fitzgerald
Tony Gonzalez
for
Randy Moss
Chris Johnson
…and another player not named Ronnie Brown or Shonn Greene?
I dunno. I’m just throwing stuff out there.
Oct 27, 2009 at 13:33:26
OK !!!
How about this
Ben
Larry
Tony
4
Randy
Chris
Matty Ice
Oct 27, 2009 at 13:37:22
I got an influx of wide recievers including the points leader in miles austin. I also got manningham who is also having a good season.My other wide receivers are mason, anthony gonzolez, and TJ housh.
As mentioned before I have QB’s also. Brees is not on the market.
I really need running back help. Thanks guys.
truth aka the persianators
Oct 27, 2009 at 14:41:38
Damn.
I was ready to pull the trigger with LA26 but now truth has me thinking.
I’m only hesitating on the trade with LA because it would leave me with no QB this week and no viable FA option to pick up.
Truth, would you do Felix Jones+Braylon Edwards for Miles Austin?
Oct 27, 2009 at 14:45:43
Pick up alex smith for a week. Is stafford back.
Oct 27, 2009 at 14:46:33
@Allen
…and there’s always VY.
There’s always VY.
Oct 27, 2009 at 15:27:57
Alex Smith?
lol
Oct 27, 2009 at 15:30:39
LA – you’ve got a deal if you still want to do it. I sent the trade proposal to you.
Oct 27, 2009 at 15:32:46
I’ll accept as soon as I get home…like 2hrs.
The fantasy page is blocked at work >.<
Oct 27, 2009 at 17:01:10
What about JP losman. He is a starter. Lol!
Oct 27, 2009 at 17:26:39
BLAM!
We have our first big blockbuster trade of the year.
LA26 gets:
Matt Ryan
Chris Johnson
Randy Moss
I get:
Big Ben
Larry Fitzgerald
Tony Gonzalez
Truth – what do you want for Miles Austin?
Oct 27, 2009 at 17:40:58
Anyone interested in a one-week rental trade?
Basically, I trade you a player at a position you need for next week because of the bye week, for a player in return for one week – then we trade back next week.
I need a QB for this Sunday only, and I’ll trade you a player you need for this Sunday only as well. Any offers?
Also, if anyone needs Greg Olsen, he’s on the block for super cheap.
Oct 27, 2009 at 18:41:39
I do need a tight end.
Crabtree for olson
Oct 27, 2009 at 18:42:19
Percy harvin and ????? For olson and ?????
Oct 27, 2009 at 18:45:43
@Chris
I am down with the one week rental thing.I was going to sign greene before the gliche. I need another runninback because Leon Washington is out for the season, cadilac williams is on a bye. How does hassleback for green sound?
For Miles austin, I was thinking
cadillac williams and miles austin for Ronnie Brown. I am sure we could work something out.
truth(then persianators)
Oct 27, 2009 at 18:48:03
I also want a conditional 2nd round pick based on the amount of snaps austin and caddy take and 2 dollars cash…just kidding!
Oct 27, 2009 at 18:57:36
@ Chris. I have Favre and McNabb. I’ll do a one week trade for anything that’s not allergic to the endzone.
Oct 27, 2009 at 19:04:59
@truth
Man, I’m not saying your offer isn’t fair – because Austin is really lighting it up… but now that I’ve traded Chris Johnson, Brown is untouchable. He’s my only dependable back.
Oct 27, 2009 at 19:16:43
@Allen
Olsen & Austin Collie for Harvin?
or
Olsen & Braylon Edwards for Harvin?
Oct 27, 2009 at 19:18:14
I’d love to do a 2 for 1 with someone for a permanent trade. That way I can ditch two roster spots and have an open one to pick up my QB if I don’t end up doing a one-week rental with someone.
Oct 27, 2009 at 19:50:10
@KD
McNabb or Favre for Pierre Thomas?
Oct 27, 2009 at 20:10:51
Send me olson and Braylon Edwards and I’ll give you harvin
Oct 27, 2009 at 20:15:36
Also
whomever has Steven jackson
I’d be willing to take him off your hands
Oct 27, 2009 at 20:17:02
I’m not sure it’s smart helping the top team get better… but here goes nothin’. Trade offer should be showing up in your box now.
Oct 27, 2009 at 20:21:03
Just so we’re clear – this is a permanent offer, not a one week rental thing, Allen.
Oct 27, 2009 at 20:28:10
How bout miles austin for Shonn green and felix jones?
Oct 27, 2009 at 21:21:16
Not a rental. But if I get my TE off the waiver I might hold up till next week
Oct 27, 2009 at 21:23:00
@tribe
what will it take for me to get michael turner off of your hands?
Oct 27, 2009 at 23:15:03
@Allen
You said “Send me olson and Braylon Edwards and I’ll give you harvin”
Do you not want to make the deal anymore? I’m not waiting around til next week because I need to pick up a QB, which is why I wanted to do a 2 for 1 deal.
Oct 28, 2009 at 09:30:09
@ Gerb
Deal: McNabb. Send it to me and I will approve when I get home. These work computers. They hate on things like FF.
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:18:44
@KD
Done. McNabb for Pierre Thomas trade is waiting for your approval.
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:33:26
I approved it from my phone. Trade is pending now.
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:34:37
chris
trade is done
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:39:14
Oh – good! Cool.
Thanks Allen, I put the trade through, and I put the McNabb for Thomas trade through as well.
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:52:32
@truth
Okay. If we can somehow work a three-way trade where I send you Shonn Greene+Felix Jones for Miles Austin, and I can send Percy Harvin to someone for a decent RB, then we can do business… but that seems like a tall order.
Your offer for Miles is intriguing… but if I traded both Felix and Shonn, I would be left with only LeSean McCoy.
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:57:30
just needed TE, and i hope percy does well for you
i got JACOBY JONES of the waiver!!!!
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:57:49
dont we get +10 for muffed punts, right??
Oct 28, 2009 at 10:59:34
i would be willing to get involved in a three team trade
i got new england D, braylon, moreno, and possibly mendenhall for the right price
Oct 28, 2009 at 11:02:11
@ Chris
Maybe Julius Jones or Willis McGahee can work in your 3-Way Trade.
Oct 28, 2009 at 11:38:34
I’m not down shuffling yet lmao.
Chris Johnson
Joe Flacco
Tony Scheffler
Kellen Winslow
Are still up for grabs.I don’t mind bundling 2 for 1, but I can’t accept a 2 for 1 of my players because I’d have to cut one ;(.
Oct 28, 2009 at 11:49:05
@Allen
I’d love to pull Mendenhall or Moreno from you so I could turn and make a deal with truth… but I don’t know if I have anything you’d want for either. You’re pretty stacked – what do you still need?
Oct 28, 2009 at 12:53:07
as funny as this sounds, still lookin to upgrade at RB
im trying to steal steven jackson from lumberjackto
i would like to upgrade over kurt warner, but i dont see it happening
Oct 28, 2009 at 13:31:24
The cooley injury really forced me to trade my one great asset in percy harvin
I’m on the waiver for the rest of th year it looks like
Oct 28, 2009 at 15:58:19
@ Chris
Percy Harvin for Kevin Smith? Smith is slated to be the top RB in fantasy this week per ESPN.
Oct 28, 2009 at 16:06:18
I’ve got Marques Colston on the trading block if anyone would like to make a deal. The last place Suckwads have got to make a move and go on a SERIOUS winning streak.
Oct 28, 2009 at 16:45:04
***Anti Brett Christ***
Andre Johnson still on the block
Oct 28, 2009 at 17:47:39
The three way sounds interesting on my part. we need to find a third party so you can get a running back for this week. I can not help you with the running back situation.
it is your call if you want julias jones(KD), Mcgahee(KD), or Mendenhall(allen ).
Thanks bro!
Oct 28, 2009 at 18:25:02
What about:
to truth- f. Jones & s. Greene
to Gerb- harvin
to me – Kevin smith & miles Austin
permanent trade for all parties.
chris, sent from my iPhone
Oct 28, 2009 at 18:36:13
I am in for that trade. Gerb are you in?
Oct 28, 2009 at 19:45:21
trade is fine with me. i don’t have anything to lose!!
Oct 28, 2009 at 20:21:08
Cool. I’ll send the offers out and we’ll do this thang!
Oct 28, 2009 at 20:47:04
@Gerb
You want Julius Jones for Harvin?
Oct 28, 2009 at 22:11:00
@KD
Don’t have a need for Jones. Got a couple RB’s similar to him already.
Oct 28, 2009 at 22:51:24
@ Chris and Gerb
I just want to say how very very very satisfied I was with yalls performance in the 3 way trade. This will be the only time I do a 3 way with two other guys!
Sorry my mind wanders in the gutter every once in a while, but I promise yall I am straight.
Oct 28, 2009 at 22:57:15
@KD
Kevin Smith + Austin Collie for Hightower?
Oct 29, 2009 at 02:16:41
@ Chris
What about Hester and Kevin?
Oct 29, 2009 at 11:23:31
@KD
I was inclined to take that trade, but looking at the Cards/Giants box score – Hightower had 4 carries to Beanie Wells’ 14. That kind of scares me.
I do think Hightower is a bit of an upgrade over Kevin Smith, but not enough for me to lose Hester in case Austin turns out to be a two-week wonder.
I dunno. Smith is on a horrible offensive team, but gets all the carries. Hightower is on a great offensive team, but now is apparently getting very few carries.
Oct 29, 2009 at 11:38:46
@ Chris
I think the difference is him getting Recieving yards in the future. Wells will go out on screens and on ‘nmust-pass’ situations. It’s all on you though. I just need to shake things up a little bit. Oh, you are over 70 comments on this thread. that has to be some kind of record huh?
Oct 29, 2009 at 11:52:39
im sittin on my RB’s
would like to get forte or jackson for the right price.
now i need olson to step it up and start scoring some TD’s baby
i do think percy is about to go OFF though
Oct 29, 2009 at 12:06:20
i might be interested in and andre for wayne swap KD
i know both are hurt but after this week we could re-evaluate
id have to get something elso to
Oct 29, 2009 at 12:18:42
WOW
JACOBY JONES has more fantasy points than all these guys
sidney rice
hines ward
burleson
brandon marshall
bowe
driver hester
holmes
sims walker
just blew me away whem i saw it
Oct 29, 2009 at 12:35:41
@ Allen
We can explore that. We can start that discussion on Tuesday. Jacoby has more points than Brandon Marshall?
Oct 29, 2009 at 13:27:54
I’m thinking about dealing Steve Smith (WR Giants) and Reginald Bush (MVP Saints) for a RB….Anyone interested?
Oct 29, 2009 at 13:31:48
He’s got Marshall. By about 6 i think
Oct 29, 2009 at 13:49:36
@ Allen
I’ve got Forte (Gerbs Suckwads). He’s primed for a good week this week. What are you willing to offer for him?
Oct 29, 2009 at 14:02:45
@ Allen
Forte and Percy for Mendenhall?
Oct 29, 2009 at 14:05:27
Speaking of Brandon Marshall….Did someone want to sneak him away from me?
Oct 29, 2009 at 21:17:41
Gerb
I’m the one that originally traded Percy to chris. Ha
I like my one two punch of Dj will and mendenhall
I have knowshon. Braylon Edwards. New England D Jacoby jones.
If I were you gerb I would keep Percy. He is the 8th highest rated receiver I believe
Oct 29, 2009 at 21:19:10
I’ll trade
Edwards for Marshall
Oct 29, 2009 at 21:37:03
Yeah, there’s NO WAY I would have traded Harvin unless I was able to upgrade him, and I got Miles Austin. I hope he’s not a flash in the pan.
Oct 29, 2009 at 23:08:25
@ chris
your thoughts on the hightower deal was my exact thoughts when i saw the proposal. Wells is the 1st round pick and he is primed to get more carries the rest of the way.
Good luck with miles austin. I am hoping green and/or jones will get me some production at running back.
Oct 30, 2009 at 08:22:16
Braylon hasn’t shown me he can catch the ball consistently this season. Then with Sanchez struggling the passing game will suffer.
No go I’m sorry.
Oct 30, 2009 at 11:24:49
I totally agree. I have wr depth so braylon is kinda left out as was harvin
what do y’all think of antoine bethea as a free agent safety for the texans
and I would love to pair cj spiller with slaton even though they are similar
Oct 31, 2009 at 01:08:14
I’m kind of against Bethea.
I’m of the thinking that one way or another the Texans will be losing a significant piece on the offensive side of the ball. They have to go first pick this year on the Safety or CB. I’d prefer Safety though. Someone who can negate the deep threat and provide the hammer on run support.
