Serious question....would you trade Barber and Choice straight up for D Mac and have Run DMC and Felix reunited?? Not that Oakland would do this, but who knows, they're Oakland!

Can you guarantee that McFadden won't ever pull another muscle ?

If you can, then " maybe.. "

Both Choice and Barber are better than Dmac, so no.

I do not agree with that.

Either way, he hasn't shown anything that makes me think he's as good as Barber and Choice combined.

Wait, that's a serious question? How can that be a serious question. Just to let you know, the answer is no. I like Choice now better than McFadden, why would I trade a RB that I like more than the back I'll be getting in return.

I wouldn't want to see McFadden as an Eagle.

But, I would like to see McFadden as a Giant. Bye, bye Brandon Jacobs.

Maybe ..... but he is on a team that has absolutely no QB.

Neither Barber or Choice would do squat on that team.

Bush, Fargas, and McFadden all had about the same number of carries (difference of about 20 carries) for the Raiders last year, and the other two both out performed him. I agree Oakland is terrible and will likely make any player look worse, but the man was the 3rd best back on his team last year, just looking at stats.


And just for comparison since, it likely doesn't mean much.....McFadden got 8 more yards off 40 more carries than Choice last year, while Choice and Barber both managed 4.4 yards per carry or over.

Well .... I cannot really argue with that.

Very good stats to back up your case

But I do think the Tony Romo factor has a lot to do with it.

The man plays on the Raiders for crying out loud. Put him with our O-line and teamed up with Felix again and watch out!! Don't know how much i'd give for him, maybe Barber and the 6th.

I said from day one Mcfadden would be a bust with those skinny legs and don't want any part of him on this team, you can get a cheap running back late in the draft or an undrafted running back if Barber gets traded.

The guy is a straight line runner that goes down with first contact...PASS!!!

If the trade price was right, I would take McFadden in an instant. I'm here to tell you that McFadden was in a horrible position in Oakland last year. Put he and Felix together again and watch the fireworks.

It's silly, it would never happen but if the deal was there, I would do it.
