I know the season hasn't even started yet but there is already action in my league. I was offered these three different trades from the same person, let me know which one would benefit my team the most.

Trade Proposal 1)

His Team : Andre Johnson, WR (HOU) , Brandon Marshall, WR (DEN) , Steven Jackson, RB (STL)

for

My Team : T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR (CIN) , Lee Evans, WR (BUF) , Larry Johnson, RB (KC)

Trade Proposal 2)

His Team : The same three Players offered in trade proposal 1.

for

My Team : Same two wide receivers but Ronnie Brown, RB (MIA) instead of Larry Johnson.

Trade Proposal 3)

His Team : The same three Players offered in trade proposal 1.

for

My Team : Same two wide receivers but Laurence Maroney, RB (NE) instead of Ronnie Brown.

I personally think that I would get a steal by accepting trade proposal 2 but please let me know what trade proposal you would accept, all feedback is much appreciated. If you think that I should not take any of the three offers also please let me know.

sometimes the best trades are the ones you do not make. I would not do any of those deals. Andre Johnson already has injury concerns, Marshall is suspended for at least 2 games already, and has a DUI trial in late September (not getting postponed again). Another conviction and he is suspended again. Admittedly Steven Jackson is a beast and is a good player to have, but it does not offset the issues with the other two.

#3 and I would do it right away. That is robbery! Jackson over Maroney is a big upgrade, Brandon Marshall big upgrade over Evans (even if he misses 3 games), and Johnson is an upgrade over TJ (at best they are break even). You win in all 3 positions in my opinion. I would keep LJ, I think he has a solid year.
