    I think it's more important to look at what defenses those 2 quarterbacks are going to be facing the rest of your Fantasy season. I would have to say that Rogers has the better matchups than Vick.

    And if your fantasy "Superbowl" is on week 16 like most other guys, you will have Hillis at home against Baltimore and Vick at home against the Vikings.

    If anything, I would trade Vick for Hillis.

    Once again the numbers (at least from my league) say to do the opposite.

    In the remaining 5 games of the season the avg points per game that the 5 defenses still to be played by each QB is

    Vick: avg points to opposing QB is 18.55 pts/game.

    Rogers: avg points to opposing QB is 19.10 pts/game.

    So slight advantage to Rogers (about 0.5 point advantage)

    In week 16 (super bowl week).

    Vick plays Minny:  Minny just gave up 35.15 to Rogers.  Minny averages 18.14 to opposing QBs. Minny will be out of it and there is a good chance that Philly will be playing for the division title and/or home field advantage in playoffs.

    Rogers plays New Your Giants:  Giants give up 15.55 to opposing QBs.  Both teams will most likely have a lot to play for in this last game of the season.

    Hillis plays Balt:  Balt gives up 16.12 to opposing RBs.


    So this information combined with the numbers in my above post suggest that of the three players in question the best combination is Vick and Hillis.  You are getting a slight upgrade at QB (in fantasy terms) and a significant upgrade at RB.

    This should be your first priority.  Priority #2 should be to get Hillis even if it means giving up Vick.  Bottom line is that you are solid at QB either way and need some beefing up at RB.

    Like Jack Smack said before though, the guy that he is trying to trade with has Roethlisberger, so taking Rogers and giving up Hillis would probably not be a good move on his part.

    yea well they didnt trade, enjoyed reading you guys post's

    Bottom line is if I am in the 10-12 draft spot like I was in this years league, Ill pray peyton hillis is still there, and I will never pick a QB in the first round again, too many opportunities during the season to pick up replacements, and I cant find a RB to save my life. Im starting mo morris this week at rb

    I have arian foster, justin forsett, and mo morris fresh off waiver wire.  DeAngelo just killed me this year

    I took Drew Brees in the first round this year and Ryan Grant in the second round... I am 9-2 and in first place in my league though

    In my league, having a great QB is better than a great running back.

    For instance, last week Rogers had 51 points and Hillis and Vick had 58 points combined.

    I have been juggling Cedric Benson, Javid Best(Didn't use him in weeks one or 2) Brandon Jackson, and Benjarvis Green-Ellis all year.

    I am also weak at the RB position in my 12 man league.

    Good thing you never made that trade.

    In my league  Rogers had 61 points and Hillis had 6.
