I’m in a full PPR league and I’m hurting a bit at the running back position.
My line-up is
Dalton/Newton (streaming qbs for now)
McCafferey
Cohen
Brown
Diggs
Gronk
Matthews (titans)
Kelley
(streaming defenses)
Succop
I also have Crowell, crowder, jj nelson, Jaron brown, (open space)
I’m trying to get a top running back and everybody is interested in Brown. I’m feeling pretty good about Diggs but could also offer him. I’ve been offered a trade of Brown for Carlos Hyde and Dez Bryant. I was thinking of countering Brown and Kelley for Hyde and O’dell. Would this be a good trade on my end? Or am I better off saving the top 2 receivers in fantasy and crossing my fingers that one of my backs becomes productive enough for the RB1/RB2 spot?
Man Hyde scares the shit out of me. He’s talented but he’s never finished a season. If I’m trading Brown, I’m looking at Leveon-Hunt-Zeke-Freeman in that order. Maybe even slide Freeman ahead of Zeke because of the suspension fears.
I may just let a few weeks play out before trading one of my top two WR. I just want to get a back so I’m not relying on McCafferey as my #1. I might give cohen and Kelley a little time to see what happens with them. Or hopefully JJ Nelson gives me another big game this week and I can use that to entice a trade for a higher ranked RB.
How do you guys feel about Rishard Matthews as a WR2? Is it even worth letting go of diggs or brown? Or should I make sure I’m getting an OBJ type in the trade?
You should pretty much always make sure your getting a tier 1 player if your giving up a tier 1 player. Beckham and Hyde is a good value for Brown in my book.
