    I get
    Isaac Bruce
    Ricky Williams

    I Trade
    Emmitt Smith
    Amani Toomer

    Here is how my team looks before the trade
    QB-Manning,R.johnson,Chandler
    RB-E.Smith,R.Smith,Staley,Dillon
    WR-A.Freeman,Hakim,T.Brown,Connell,Toomer,S.Morris
    TE-Wycheck
    This trade would give me a legit number one receiver and I'm pretty fed up with Emmitt Smith so I don't mind losing him but I'd still like to hear some objective opinions.
    Thanks for any and all input.

    Maybe he knows something we don't know. Check the injury reports.

    Bruce, even though he has to share with Holt and Hakim, will put up much better #'s than Toomer. Toomer plays in NY right ? With Kerry Collins ? Bruce is a top 5 wr.

    Williams prolly won't get you as many td's as Smith, though he looks to be getting better. He had a better day than emmitt the last two weeks.

    Dallas takes Emmitt out on most passing situations and Dallas is a pretty bad team.
    Bruce is a top tier player that lights it up.

    Hands down a steal

    I have Emmitt on my team and I have been pleased with his consistency. Different league, however.

    I would do that trade. Warner is the real deal(at least with the Rams) and doesn't look like he's going to slow any time soon. I really would look long and hard at the injury reports, though.

    Sometimes I think I'd be better off dead.

    No, wait, not me...you.

    Only downside to that trade is that Bruce has been injury-plagued throughout his career. I think last year was his 1st healthy season in a long time. He was on my team 3 years ago and was good in the 12 games he played. 98 was even worse. Still, he's one of the top 2 WRs in the game.

    Emmit is old and his team is bad. Those are 2 things I look to avoid in a fantasy football running back.

    It was a computer drafted league or i probably wouldn't have taken him:I definately wouldn't have taken him in the second but he had a great year last year so i got stuck with him.

    About the trade it was rejected,too good for me I guess.
