Should I trade Matt Ryan for Brandon Marshall? - Johnny - 11-27-2012 06:37 AM
I have Matt Ryan and Peyton Manning, who have each scored 130(ryan), and 125(manning) points so far in 6 games. Manning looks just as good as Ryan this year, plus he has the easiest schedule out of all QBs for the rest of the season. Not to mention the fact that Peyton Manning has been my favorite player by far, ever since I first got into football and became a Colts fan since I was 13. Safe to say I'm a believer, and I was one of the guys saying he was going to make the Broncos a playoff team, and I stand by that. I've decided to stick with Manning. But I digress..
I'm 2-4 in my league. Someone is willing to trade me Brandon Marshall or Larry Fitz for Matt Ryan. I figure he's worth more than either of them, but I need some serious help at WR. Andre Johnson and Steve Smith are not doing as well as I expected. I'd LOVE to get A.J. Green or Calvin or even Roddy White for a player of Ryans caliber this year, but the teams in my league who have them all have solid QBs(RG3, Brady, Brees, respectively).
Would you trade Matt Ryan for Marshall/Fitz if you were in my situation? Or would you do something else? Thanks!

i will stick with Peyton Manning i think he will make it to the playoffs but Matt Ryan is doing pretty better with his long passes and his team will make it as well that forsure. but if i was you ill get Larry Fitz but ya its hard becuss Marshall is good too but Fitz over Ryan is my pick.

Absolutely do that deal. Theres no point in holding on to 2 QBs if you can only start one, unless you have someone who will be benched (Sanchez, Kolb) or gets injured often (Vick). Since your guys are pretty safe bets to make it through the season, make that deal. I personally would trade for Larry Fitz who is simply a better WR than Marshall, but if you prefer Marshall thats fine as well since they are fairly close in production and who knows what will happen with Arizona's QB situation.
In fantasy you want to have depth, but you can only win with the guys in your starting roster. swapping out a QB like Ryan for a stud WR is a solid move since Peyton has been hot. Make the deal.

Keep Ryan! He will outscore everyone else you have named in this forum.

I would make taht trade in a heartbeat and get marshall, Cutler throws to him A LOT. Fiz is probably a better WR but QB problems scare me

I mean if you need a WR as opposed to a RB, sure make this deal. I think P.Manning this year is pretty legit, we've seen enough. I mean you're 2-4, you can afford to make this deal. If you pull this deal now you can have Marshall for the weekend, either way both QB's are on bye this week so you'll have rely on another backup.
