I think you presented them backwards. The team getting McNabb in deal 1 wins, and Boldin in deal 2.

Brees = McNabb
Santonio = Braylow
Marvin = Eli
I see that trade as about equal and no real advantage for either team. However, the Steelers > Browns so I'll give you the slight advantage. Santonio didn't have a big day yesterday but I think he'll break double digit TD's.
Boldin > Gonzales
Witten > Shockey
Rodgers > Cassel
I like this trade for you. Witten was a monster for me last year and will be the same again this year. Rodgers will be a lot better than Cassel. Boldin is worth more than Gonzales but he's absolutely miserable so it's not by much. Not a bad trade.

I love Santonio, but he is not equal to Braylon.

Braylon is a pussy. He had two huge drops against Dallas.
Pittsburgh didn't have to use Santonio this week. They destroyed Houston with a very vanilla gameplan.

I like the first trade, but do you really need two QB's in that deal? Maybe try and get someone else instead of Eli
As for the second trade, I wouldn't do it. Witten racks up great numbers for a TE... statistically speaking maybe the best TE in the league. I don't think Cassell will put huge numbers... they'll be relying on the ground game alot more. Rodgers looks very promising.

We're not arguing Santonio vs. like, Greg Jennings or Roy Williams. Braylon is 100% elite, Santonio isn't. I do love Santonio, but nah, he's not going to be in Braylon's fantasy league.

And Braylon>Santonio, easily. Edwards has the potential to be a top 3 guy... good size, nice speed, great hands and instincts... he's really good at adjusting to the ball

Again, much better QB. Much better team. Just wait. On a side note, I've already put in my waivers claim for Eddie Royal. Sheesh. |

I'd guess he made them already. I'd hope so at least, otherwise those trades would suck for him.

IMO: Brees>McNabb Holmes<Edwards Marvin=Eli --- Witten>Boldin Gonzales=/<Shockey Rodgers>>Cassel I love my team personally I think Brees is now the best QB in fantasy football with Tom Brady out for the season and Peyton struggling to stay healthy. For trade 1, I think you could have gotten maybe more. I don't like Marvin Harrison at all for this season. I think if he has any more than 5 TDs this year and 650 yards then that'd be a huge surprise. Don't like Trade # 2 at all. You upgraded nothing but the TE position. Anquan Boldin is a player you don't trade unless you get another superstar in return. If healthy Shockey, should have a solid season... and Rodgers will be your #2 with Brees as your #1. Trade #1 you win out. Trade #2 not so much. |

I think both trades are good for him, team looks nice. in a league that rewards for Receptions to trade away a player who has gone over 100 receptions twice in his career... and is probably looking at another 80-90 this season isn't the best thing. |

Meh, my other receivers are good pass catchers and i also have Bush who is going to get a ton of receptions.
Boldin's situation with Arizona is concerning and i needed an upgrade at TE.
