White Sox Josh Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 I just traded Warrick Dunn for Dominick Davis. I really really like Davis and i think he has the potential to lead the league in rushing this year. Dunn splits time with T.J. Duckett and that season he put up just seems really flukish.

knightni Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Dunn had an above average year in '04. Davis had a pretty nice year, but could have done more in '04. I would say that if the league was in the long term, you would easily win out with Davis. In the short term, it is close to even. Houston's O-Line is very mediocre. Bordering on lousy. Atlanta has a quality O-Line and many more options than Houston. The real question is: "Will Vick share the ball with Dunn more this year?". I would say that Davis is a better pick if he can make his own running lanes like he did last year; but, I don't think that you "robbed" the other owner.

ZoomSlowik Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 I'd say that's pretty bad. Davis gets drafted considerably earlier than Dunn, who might get outrushed by his quarterback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daa84 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Aug 19, 2005 -> 03:19 PM) I'd say that's pretty bad. Davis gets drafted considerably earlier than Dunn, who might get outrushed by his quarterback. and doesnt put it in the endzone thanks to duckett. if you get recieving points for your RBs dunn helps there, but either way, davis for dunn was a steal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomSlowik Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 On a related note, did I miss something with this trade? Curtis Martin is my number 2 back behind Jamal Lewis (first pick was Moss). This guy obviously wanted Curtis badly. He made a couple of offers that I probably would have accepted, but I didn't check my E-Mail for a while. Turns out that was very fortunate. The deal I finally accepted, which was just processed: I get: Chris Chambers Rudi Johnson Kevin Jones I give up: Curtis Martin I'm still trying to figure this one out, because both backs I got were taken before Martin and are probably better options. Is it just me, or did I get the deal of the year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AssHatSoxFan Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 wow rudi and kevin jones could both be considered top 15 backs along with curtis so to get 2 of them for martin is pretty sweet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That deal would be killed by the remaining owners in my league. It was on a yahoo public league I did for s***s and giggles and it was processed. Pretty sad, I know. My only complaint is that I have more depth than top level talent, but when you have Johnson, Lewis, and Jones at RB with Moss and Andre Johnson at receiver like I do, I'm sure no one will cry for me.

ZoomSlowik Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Okay, this is getting ridiculous. The SAME GUYwho made the last ridiculous trade just agreed to give me Peyton Manning. The price: Jamal Lewis and Jimmy Smith. The guy gave me his top 3 picks for Jamal Lewis, Curtis Martin, and Jimmy Smith. My lineup if the trade doesn't get vetoed: QB: Peyton Manning RB: Rudi Johnson RB: Kevin Jones WR: Randy Moss WR: Andre Johnson WR: Ashley Lelie TE: Todd Heap K: Ryan Longwell DEF: New England B: Tom Brady B: Steve McNair B: Michael Bennett B: Chris Chambers B: Chris Benson empty roster spot Do we really need to go through with the season, or can I just take the title now? Let me go see if I can find a way to get LT and TO while I'm at it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
