Help Me Make a Deal

[Not Mike]

OK,

It's a 2-keeper league. You can keep 1, and get a "pre-first round" pick. My team sucked last year and my only keeper was Willie Parker. I tried to load up on RBs in the draft, but most of my guys suck. I did, however, draft Addai too early with the intention of keeping him next year.

My team looks like:

Hasselbeck/Delhomme
Parker/Addai/Ahman/LenDale/Norwood/Fargas (I sadly needed a spot starter this week)
Fitz/R Moss/Bryant Johnson (yeah, that bites)
Heap/Cooley
Graham
Bears/Chargers

A guy is hot for Fitz and has Chad Johnson... I don't mind buying low (with CJ on an uptick and Larry hurt)... he offered me CJ/Plummer for Delhomme/Fitz.

I hate Plummer. I don't want him; MH is my guy unless someone gets hurt, though.

He also has:

Pennington/A Smith
Buckhalter/James/Deangelo/Henry/F Taylor
Key/Owens/CJ
McMichael/E Johnson
Falcons

What's a fair counter?

Looking at your needs, I wouldn't do his offer. I would want 2 WR in return.

You could offer:
Fitz
Delhomme
Bryant Johnson

for
TO
CJ
either QB (just a fill in anyway)

Given his team, he should be willing to give up a high end WR for a top 10 QB. I think this is a bit slanted in your favor, but it looks like you have a more solid team so you should get the better end of the deal.

Delhomme's stock >> Plummer right now. Denver is going to run the ball and with S. Smith back, Carolina has won 4 in a row... they are playing good ball right now. I think Delhomme will finish out the season nicely.

Once Fitzgerald is back, I see him putting up nice numbers with Leinart running the show now - might even place his stock a little bit higher than CJ's.

I'd try:
Delhomme, Fitz, RMoss for Owens, CJ, and Henry..

If you like Johnson for Fitz, make the offer.

If he really wants Delhomme, then get Taylor/Hall and Travis Henry for Norwood and Delhomme.

Well, he proposed the Jake/CJ for Jake/Fitz deal and I turned it down.

He told me he may keep Owens next year, so he won't deal him. Then he said maybe we could do Jake/Fitz/R Moss for Pennington/CJ/Keyshawn. So, this appears to be going nowhere.
