Ask the Expert Question: Which star through the first three weeks of the season would you be hoping to trade away while his value is highest?

Which star through the first three weeks of the season would you be hoping to trade away while his value is highest?


I will forgo the obvious injured players and simply name two starting RBs who will not be starting much longer, Michael Turner and Shonn Greene. Turner has 155 combined yards and 2 TDs (30 FP) and Greene has 166 combined yards and one less TD (24 FP). I say sell both before they lose their jobs to their backups (Jacquizz Rodgers and Bilal Powell).  One could make the case that they are not stars but anytime a starting RB gets benched it hurts your team roster.

Interesting take. I still have Michael Turner on my team and he seems to be doing pretty well. I'm more concerned about the Ryan Mathews and Jackie Battle competition. I've got Mathews but am looking to maybe trade for battle. I'm hoping to win my fantasy football pay league and am thinking trading might help me improve my team.
