Title: TDMMC's NFL Awards 2010: Best Free Agent / Trade Player Post by: Dave Gray on January 09, 2011, 11:22:14 am (This topic courtesy of Sunstroke.)
Choose one player picked up (or traded for) this season. You can base your criteria solely on the quality of their player, or you can elect other factors, like cost of the player, or expectations. ONLY PLAYERS ACQUIRED LAST OFF-SEASON (OR SOONER) ARE ELIGIBLE.

that guy was a beast this year Title: Re: TDMMC's NFL Awards 2010: Best Free Agent / Trade Player Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on January 09, 2011, 12:11:55 pm If you are looking at it from either side: A basically free 3rd round pick to NE was the best trade of the season, for a player that some reports said would be cut if they didn't find a trading partner and didn't do much either before or after the trade.
If you only mean from the player side: Then once again goes to NEP, with the pick up of Danny Woodhead. Branch for a 4th is worth an honorable mention. NEP have been working the trades pretty good the is season. Title: Re: TDMMC's NFL Awards 2010: Best Free Agent / Trade Player Post by: Sunstroke on January 09, 2011, 12:35:48 pm Woodhead's a good one...and definitely (imo) the best "in-season" acquisition. My vote will go to Chicago's big-bucks FA signing, Julius Peppers. He really was the glue for da Bears defense this year, and unlike Karlos Dansby (who I also considered), Peppers' performance improved down the stretch as Chicago held off the Pack for their division title, while Dansby's numbers actually tailed off a bit in the second half of the season. Title: Re: TDMMC's NFL Awards 2010: Best Free Agent / Trade Player Post by: jtex316 on January 10, 2011, 09:54:01 am I like the acquisition of LaDanian Tomlinson by the Jets. A great dimension he has added to the Jets and I think it really helps them.
In his 10th season in the NFL (as a running back), he did: 219 carries for 914 yards (4.2 per carry) and 6 TD's, as well as 52 receptions for 368 yards (7.1 YPC). He also had 16 carries for 82 yards and 2 TDs, plus 4 catches for 17 yards in last weekend's AFC Wild Card game against the Colts. But more than that, he has brought an element of leadership to the offense that really needed it from a skill position player (Sanchez, Edwards, Holmes, or Shon Green don't necessarily scream out "team leader" to me). |
