Need trade advice.

Was offered David Johnson, Julian Edelman, and Marshawn Lynch for OBJ and Joe Mixon.

I need depth at RB, and I already have Julio, Cooks, and Boyd. I'm hesitant to part with Mixon, but I'm optimistic about Edelman and Johnson. Thoughts?

Was Mixon your RB1? If so that would be a no for me. But if you got an elite RB already, I would make that deal.

DJ has been getting more and more touches as the season goes. He's not what he used to be, but if you need RB depth him and Marshawn sounds good to me. Beast is having a good season.

So I am going to hug my own personal bias against starting Patriots not named Brady and Gronk, but not playing Edelman tonight, and instead rolling with Tate for my FLEX is giving me indigestion.

Thanks everyone for the input.

I accepted the trade, now we're trying to get it accepted before tonight because I might want to flex Edelman.

Trade advice:

I got DJ, Tevin Coleman, Derrick Henry, and Tahrik Cohen for RBs
Tyreek, Diggs, Jeffrey (Wentz is my QB), Ridley, Gordon, Robbie Anderson as WR
Was offered Philip Lindsay for Diggs

Full PPR, two RBs, 2 WRs, 1FLEX

My heart and brain say I am getting fleeced but I don't have much options for RB.

That's a big no from me. You could probably get something better for Diggs if you wanted to trade him.

Do you guys think I should just roll with DJ, Henry, Coleman, and Cohen? I kind of worry about Coleman being squashed when Freeman is good to go. I do think Henry is going to bounce back.

You should probably try to pair Cohen with a WR and search for an upgrade. Ridley had been hot recently, I bet there are some buyers for him out there.

Would you accept a trade offer of Le'veon Bell for Brandin Cooks (I have Cooks)?
I would take that risk.

Follow-up, the guy offered Lindsay for Ridley. That might be the deal.

That would have been my counter to the guy, I'd definitely accept that. Mutually beneficial (and I think Lindsay is gonna be more consistent over the whole season).

Thanks all. I know I wasn't going to give Diggs for Lindsay, but wanted to see what made sense, given my roster.

Thanks all for the advice. I am 3-1 with Thielen, Will Fuller, and Alshon Jeffrey as my other WRs, so I was inclined to gamble on Bell coming back anyway. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something about Bell.

Need some quick advice before tonight's game and for the weekend. Should I bench Gronk for Macdonald from the Steelers? Gronk isn't fully healthy which is why he hasn't had a great year up until now.

Also, should I bench Aaron Rodgers for Goff? After last week, it's getting harder to leave Goff on the bench for Rodgers.

Start goff asap! If it was me, I'd probably not start gronk. To many variables. They're playing a very winnable game, colts secondary is beat up meaning more chances for pats wise receivers ( more shots for Gordon , Brady and edelman working on their timing), and they could give him an easier work load to help get his ankles better. Though I'm not sure what MacDonald has done? Didn't he have a few catches last game?

Never bench Gronk, he is the kind of guy that I would rather die with than have him blow up on my bench. All 3 Packers WRs are banged up, so I would play Goff over Rodgers.

0.5 PPR FLEX

Should I go with Hines or Keke Coutee
Sings point to Fuller playing, so I would go with Hines here.

Coutee definitely could see consistency moving forward, but he's a stash for now until we see how/if they continue to use him

And yeah, the Gronk questions are understandable, but I agree you can't bench him unless he's out.

Thanks for the advice! It's hard to bench Rodgers but Goff is having a great year so far.

I'd check before the game but sounds like Gronk will be playing tonight. I just have worries about his health and if he won't be targeted a lot. Definitely torn on this, but I might start him anyway. Macdonald had a good game against the Ravens, but it might have been due to the fact that Baltimore did a good job of containing Smith Schuster and Antonio Brown.

White vs Jeffrey


White has the safer floor but Jeffrey is facing vikings def that got shredded last week

I'd hold Diggs and sell high on Ridley for a RB. You can wait a week or two if you want since he has some really nice matchups coming up which could increase his value slightly

Edit: just noticed that you had another post with a trade of Ridley for Lindsay lol

Hell yeah. Streamed Ebron this week with Trey Burton on bye. That extra td on the end was sweet. Stay hurt Doyle...

I'm in 8th place in my league and might actually beat 1st place because of Ebron. Wouldn't that be something to rub in non-stop.


Ebron is a keeper at this point.
That's the plan for now. Was satisfied with Burton considering the TE position is trash lately but I'll keep Ebron for now until I see how him and Doyle play together.

didnt see the game, but surprised to see michel had a nice game from the boxscore. Might actually pick up a kicker this week although i'm still projected to lose. was kind of hoping the person i was playing this week didnt at the last minute put in hines in their lineup instead of starting lamer miller
