Popes/Dodgers trade

Popes · May 1st, 2008, 07:07 PM

Popes get:
1.9 pick
V. Jackson (200/1)
2009 2nd round

Dodgers get:
1.8 pick
C. Benson (639/2)
A. Peterson - Chi (138/1)
D. Stallworth (721/2)

Stallworth is a dump, so basically I get a 2nd rounder, a dump, and Jackson as a cheap WR, Brian gets Benson/Peterson and a one-spot move up in the 1st round.

I have both teams calculated as within the cap with this trade. Brian to confirm.

This trade will bring me into compliance after the RFA acquistion of J. Lewis.

Confirmed.

Oops says Benson ...

Nittany Dodgers · May 4th, 2008, 02:56 PM

This might not be that bad. If Benson becomes totolly worthless, he turns into a dump as well and I can cut bait on him that much sooner.

Popes · May 4th, 2008, 03:35 PM

Agreed. I've always thought Adrian Peterson (Chi version) would be a capable starting RB for the Bears, hence me always making sure I had him handcuffed to Benson. This increases the possibility that you end up with an NFL starter for $138.

Yeah it just sticks that Benson couldn't pull his head out in the NFL. I liked him a lot in Texas but it just goes to show how some people can't handle the NFL as a "job" and do dumb stuff.

Can you say Matt Forte?

That's why I thoughtthis was a fantasic deal for Popes.

They get out of a major cap bind for the price of dropping down 1 spot and trading away CHI #2 and #3 RBs.

Stallworth will be a decent WR, but Vincent Jackson could do just as well and a cheaper price, so that's a wash.

And to make it even better for Popes and worse for Dodgers.... is he gave up a 2nd round pick!!!
