    dont take Lamar unless you get Foster too...also...Carolina has no QB so id eb shocked if either guy has much value the rest of the season...i think you would be giving up better players at both positions Green at worst is even with Brady...and Dillon is much better than Smith

    I would have to say DON'T DO IT!!! (caps for emphasis).

    Green is better than Brady and Dillon is better than Smith. That means you would be getting the 2 worst players in a 4 player deal. That is not a good strategery. ;)

    Smith will lose his starting job soon to DeShaun Foster because the Panthers have nothing to lose by playing the talented rookie over the rapidly disappearing Smith. Dillon will be Dillon - 1 great game followed to 2 crappy ones, but you never know when each will hit. At the end of the year, he'll have his stats.

    Brady's start, while not entirely a fluke, was better than he'll perform the rest of the year in all likelihood. Plus, KC's defense is horrid, so look for Green to be involved in many shootouts the remainder of the season.

    It looks to me like someone's trying to dupe you by flashing the big first-half numbers Smith & Brady put up. Don't fall for it.

    Yeah my initial thoughts were no.

    The Foster factor was a big thing.

    I guess I am frustrated because this is my MONEY league, Im 2-5, and have a tough matchup this week.

    I just wish that Dillon and Alexander werent so damn streaky!!!

    No way stick with what ya got -
    D Foster will be back after the bye week and Lamar will at the very least split carries. Trent Green can throw at will with Priest running behind him and Snoop is almost back another target. Dillion is all or nothing, but the bengals will get a little better this year Farmer is back, Westbrook is healthier- anyways more passing options for Kitna, opening up the run for CD. Pats are going to get A. Smith involved more, Tom B will come back to earth.
