14 team PPR, made a few trades and my team now looks like this.
QB - Mahomes, Goff
RB - Chubb, Drake, Robbinson, Gibson, (waiver clam on Bell who was dropped)
WR - Adams, Woods, Lamb, Campbell, Cooke
TE - Logan Thomas
Do I shop Mahomes and maybe Drake to get Rodgers and Taylor or Kyler and Barkley?
I may be able to give Lamb or Campbell and get OBJ from the Kyler/Barkley owner in a three for three - thoughts in that?
Or just enjoy Mahomes, first year I’ve ever had a stud QB!
If you can get Kyler and Barkley I think I would do it. Barkley is the best player in that trade and Kyler is really good too.
For Rodgers and Taylor I think I would just ride with Mahomes since I think Mahomes will be more consistent than Rodgers overall and Taylor for me is still in the same category as Drake right now.
No concerns about Barkley being taken away by gamescript and just defenses keying in on him all year?
He does have a tough schedule as well…
The other owner I can talk to is maybe seeing if I can get Dak and Gurley for Mahomes - would you trust Gurley enough to do that?
Barkley won’t play against the pittsburgh steelers every week, i would def go after kyler/barkley. I love taylor but Aaron Rodgers gives me the heebie jeebies.
Yeah I agree on Rodgers, gives me the stack with Adams but not sure I believe he’s back to his old sling it self yet…
I’ve started talks with the Kyler/Barkley owner
Not really concerned, plus he still gets targeted with passes when they are down. The stat line for the week was low because the Steelers have a good defence. I also think there’s a lot of weapons in NY that defences won’t be able to only focus Barkley.
I wouldn’t go after Gurley trade at all, I feel like that would be a downgrade for you at both QB and RB.
Im not in love with this trades, tbh… But i would be interested in the Kyler Barkley one… Having barkley to me seems waaaay safer than chubb and i dont think kyler will be that much of a downgrade from mahomes (of course it is, but i dont think is too much). As far as the arod/taylor, i personally wouldnt do it
Kyler and Barkley. I’d do it in a heart beat.
Thanks all, other owner accepted the trade and I feel pretty good about it. Upgraded RB core and still have a top 5 QB with real upside for more if he keeps running.
