Wheeling And Dealing At The Trade Deadline

Fantasy owners are scrambling all over the fantasy world as they try and squeeze in the deadline deal that will ensure that their playoff/championship chances are secure. Here are a few big names you shouldn’t be afraid to include in that blockbuster deal to get the guy who is going to put your team over the edge:

Joe Flacco, QB BAL - If you have Flacco on your roster, chances are he has carried your team on more than a couple occasions. Without going so far as to whisper the phrase “sophomore slump”, I will say that defensive coordinators are getting better at containing Joe’s cannon arm. That plus the fact that still has to face Pittsburgh twice between Week 12 and Week 16 (playoff season in most leagues) makes him someone worth dangling him in a deal to get a quarterback on a higher tier.
