Ok guys, this is a bit off topic but I have a bit of a dilemma here. In one of my FFB Leagues we had a draft and one of the other guys has Daryl Richardson. Picked him up in the later rounds and currently has him on the bench. I asked him if he would trade him to me for one of my bench players. He counters that with a trade proposal of his Ray Rice and D Rich for my Marshawn Lynch. WHat do you guys think???

Who are your other RB's and how many can you play? D. Rich might be big enough upgrade over your other RBs to justify the trade.

My current RB lineup is:
M Lynch
Leveon Bell
Bryce Brown
Chris Ivory

I can have 2 starting RBs and I usually carry one at the "flex" position.

I have Lynch and Bell starting right now.

I am just wondering if Ivory and Richardson are going to produce similar numbers.
I think Rice and Lynch are almost the same player. But the Seahags play in the NFC West. Tougher D I think. I might have to check strength of schedule.

Hmm. I'm not sure about Bell or Brown doing much. I think I'd do that trade. Richardson will get the bulk of the carries for this team. You can't say that for Bell or Brown. Also, Rice should be pretty close to Lynch for points. I wouldn't think it'd be a huge difference(you never know though) I hate being the only one with input on this, though.

Anyone else agree with me?

I'd do that trade so I wouldn't have to pull for Lynch. I don't think DR is a viable starter in fantasy but will be a good bye week fill for Bell week 5 against the Jaguars. Do the trade.

Bell in injured, Brown keeps fumbling, and Ivory seems off and on with his hamstrings.
