Tops in my league but just barely. Have 4 games left 'till playoffs. What should I change if anything. Also, I have a pending trade but should I cancel it?
My Team:
QB Delhomme
WR Harrison
WR Chad Johnson
RB Lamont Jordan
RB Sean Alexander
W/R Tatum Bell
TE Jason Witten
K John Kasay
DEF Indy
BN Denver's D
BN Jerry Porter
BN Darrell Jackson
BN Adrian Peterson
BN Cris Cooley
BN Joe Jurevicious
Pending TRADE Tatum Bell for Byron Leftwich because of next weeks matchup. Leftwich @ Tenn Delhomme @ Chicago
I'd actually leave it as is. You should get a backup QB in case Delhomme goes down, but you weaken your lineup by getting rid of Bell. Maybe look for one on the wire, and drop one of the deep bench guys for him. I'd leave the starting lineup alone, though.

I'd keep Bell as insurance, particularly where you can use him as a flex player if your main backs stay healthy. If you lose Alexander or Jordan for some reason, you'll really struggle at the RB spot and likely will regret not having Bell around anymore; I'm not sure that Leftwich is really that much of an upgrade over Delhomme, regardless of the matchup, and in any event, I would never deal off a solid 3rd running back for a marginal upgrade that you'll only use for 1 week. Delhomme's schedule is fairly soft after this week, so even if you lose because of Delhomme this week, he should make up for it over the remainder of the season. For one week, I'd see if there's anything on the waiver wire/free agency market and take my chances there before I gave up Bell.

Thanks everyone. I cancelled the trade and offered Cris Cooley instead. He's listed as a TE/RB in our league.
Gado was gone early last week. Darrell Jackson will be back hopefully at full strength just in time for me to use him during the playoffs.

I assume W/R means wideout or running back. NFL.com doesn't have the flex position. Assuming they are healthy, Jurevicious or Porter for Bell would be a gamble but could be worth the risk. Especially, if you have a tough matchup. Brunell likes to use Cooley around the goaline, so he is intriguing.
You should probably stick with your lineup. If you drafted that team, kudos.
