Congratulations on that seven-touchdown game last weekend, Drew Brees. But you’ve been traded.
What happened against Denver in front of a national audience, Aaron Rodgers? Really, just 77 yards passing? Off you go in a deal for, say, Adrian Peterson.
With trade deadlines rapidly approaching in some fantasy football leagues, many keen owners are searching for the final move that will pay off come playoff time. Or, if you happen to be in a keeper league, it might be time to get that bargain deal if you’re just treading water near the bottom of your standings. Maybe trade Charcandrick West to someone who wants to win now, in exchange for Jamaal Charles, who’s out for the season.
Believe it or not, Brees and Rodgers are among the most traded QBs in Yahoo leagues. Rodgers was dealt 373 times in one day earlier this week – and four owners actually dropped him. He was dreadful against the Broncos’ vaunted defense, but not quite that dreadful.
Anyway, there are good deals to be had. Might be an opportune time to get a king’s ransom for a running back such as Todd Gurley. Saw a trade where someone gave up Gurley straight up for Peterson. Intriguing, but not sure about that one.
