Ray Rice trade advice

I've got Ray Rice and someone in my league is offering a trade for him. Currently my other RB are Slaton, Jones-Drew, and Addai. My teams weak spot is at WR. I was offered Pierre Thomas and a WR for Rice. I can choose from Steve Smith (NYG), Colston, DeSean Jackson, Calvin Johnson. Right now the difference between Slaton and Rice is 8 points a game in our league. While any of his WR are only a 4 or 5 point gain on my current starters, Welker, Ocho, Burleson, Austin.

Anyone have some advice? Colston is tempting but I'm just not sure how much of an improvement he really is and Pierre Thomas probably won't even crack my lineup most weeks (2 RB league).

You aren't trading for Thomas, he just fills a roster spot and is better than anyone you can get in FA.

Would a lineup of Slaton/JD, Colston/Welker score more in your league than the lineup you have now? If there is any question at all and you are leading the league currently, I would not change a thing.

Counter with Slaton so you keep your 1-2 punch at rb.

      Who is going to take a shot at Malik Willis

      By cranky · Posted

      So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk.

      Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
