Trading deadlines approaching

And with them comes the last round of "here's how to trade" articles from the 'experts'.

One thing I've failed to mention thus far: what's the logic in recommending players to trade FOR and then putting it out there so EVERYONE can see it? For example, a Yahoo! article says "Go get Packers!". Okay, well, the guys with Packers have read that, too. Do you think they'll allow themselves to be swindled or even take part in otherwise fair trades? I think not.

My advice: go get good players first and then try to get some depth, team be damned. Remember, big players make big plays in big games and sometimes big players come up small in non-big games.
