Well - I've been offered another trade
This is from the team with the 6th pick.
I'd get his 2nd and 3rd for my 1st and 6th.
So it would be - my #8 and #69 (I think)
for his #19 and #30
You guys really think this is a bad trade on my end? Please, not being overly critical, I'm trying to understand your logic.
My thinking is that I very likely could wind up with a group of guys that collectively could offset any reduction in points I lose from the 8th player. The best thing about it is at 8 I'm not losing out on one of the fantasy stud RB's. I'm left with Parker (who I'm not that high on anyway), R Johnson (consistent but not amazing), Maroney (I'd rather take him in the 2nd), P Manning (I would prefer not to build my team around him in the 1st), Travis Henry (again, I'd rather take him in the 2nd).
The only thing that I am afraid of is losing my shot at Westbrook, who seems like the only fantasy killer that'd possibly would be there at 8, though it's somewhat doubtful.

i fail to see how you're left with those RBs.
LT
LJ
Alexander
Gore
Jackson
Portis
Westbrook
and then whoever you want. There's still tons of great RBs. Addai, McAllister, Rudi...Addai would probably be my pick, and it would be the easiest pick I ever made. Or if some idiot takes Peyton in the top 7, you get a stud RB at #8. I don't see why you would trade out of the #8 spot.

Portis is a 2nd rounder. All of these guys, excluding Portis who I would not, in no way take at #8, and including Addai make up 7 picks. I am then left with Rudi because McAllister is not, in any way a first rounder, and Manning.
The only chance I have, like I said, is hoping someone takes Manning and Westbrook slips. Or I could take Rudi, who is solid as always, or I could wait, have a minor drop off with Thomas Jones and still have an extra 2nd and 3rd to work with.

Dont make a trade just cause it sucks to be at the bottom of the first round. Find a trade that makes your team better...and based on that projected draft, you haven't found it.
