Marion Barber for Darren Sproles?

I own Barber but want to trade him for Sproles, is this a good or bad idea and why?





ThanksMarion Barber for Darren Sproles?
I personally think it's a horrible idea. Barber is about a top 15 back (even with Felix Jones receiving carries). Sproles' value is about 85% dependent on the health of LT. LT just missed his second game in his 9 year career. Sproles may steal a few carries from LT, but he will be LT's backup this season. With a healthy LT, I feel Leon Washington would get more touches than Sproles for the remainder of the season. Would you trade Barber even up for Washington? You can use Barber weekly as your RB2...but your team would be worthless if Sproles was your RB2.





The only way to even remotely consider this is if you have LT and another stud RB to use as your RB2.Marion Barber for Darren Sproles?
Marion Barber for the long haul. Sproles for this week only since LT and Barber are nicked up. However, through out the course of the season Barber is a featured back and Sproles is not.
Bad trade in my mind. Might as well keep barber considering Tomlinson can come back. Plus, opposing teams Ds aren't going to allow Sproles many more yds receiving and the Chargers can't get jack on the ground.
That's a horrible trade, keep Sproles. He will score a lot more points than Barber this year or any other year. He's in his prime.
I think I would hold onto Barber. I love Sproles but that large work load is gonna get him hurt as he's just to small to be running 30 times a game while lt is out.
Well their still not sure if Barber is gonna play or not, they said he was out for 2 weeks then said there's a possibility he'll play so use your best judgment!
