Trade advice?

First off, my league has a little bit of a different scoring system. It is a PPR league and the QB's get 6 pt./TD and 1.5 pts./50 yards. All other positions are normal: 1 pts./ 10 yards receiving and rushing. We have 1 starting Qb,RB,TE and 2 starting wr's, and a wr/rb flex and another flex where you can start any offensive position.

My question is, my draft strategy was to go stud QB - stud QB, and start two QB's , then go best available RB and WR after rounds 1 & 2. I got:

rd 1 - Brady
rd 2 - Rodgers
rd 3- P. Thomas
rd 4- D. McFadden
rd 5 - V. Jackson
rd 6- R.Rice
rd 7 - W. Parker
rd 8 - T. Holt
other players: D. Hester, D. Avery, C. Henry(ciny), S. Rice

Now to get to the question, as you can see my RB and WR's are thin. A guy in my league had his heart set on McFadden and want to trade me Boldin for DMC. Is my RB's strong enough to take the loss of McFadden? I only need to start 1 RB and if the PT Cruiser comes thru I could use Rice/Parker to back-up? What do you guys think? V. Jackson and Boldin would put me at ease in the WR department, or will one of my other guys come thru? Like I said......my RB's took a hit to fullfill my Stud QB theory.

Thanks.

In a word, Hell yes!

You picked the absolute perfect strategy in this type of scoring format and roster setup with the 2 elite QB's right off the bat. I like your RB situation way better than you probably do, but your WR's need serious help. Boldin for Run-DMC needs to get done ASAP. If you don't win this league after the trade, it will only be due to injuries.

Getting a #1 WR for your 3rd RB
:wow:

in a heartbeat

I would def. take the trade. I am high on Pierre Thomas this year so I think you will be fine at RB.

R.Rice should have a good year as well.

Thanks guys,
I made the trade, now it only has to make it past the league vote?
