I was leaning towards dropping benjamin and yeldon to pick up a kicker & geronimo (Brandon marshall & nyheim hines are also FAs). Does that sound right?

Dropping Benjamin is fine, but Yeldon is a hold for now as long as Fournette remains banged up. I don't think Allison maintains any value.

benjamin is an easy drop. id drop jordy before yeldon who has high rb2 potential whenever fournette misses games which he will

also agree that geronimo isnt a must hold. hes still the #3 guy and rodgers is iffy

I did? I drafted him in my redraft league in the 3rd round but I don't remember trading for him. I'm still interested in him......

Ohh I thought it was you who traded Josh Gordon and Conner for him. Maybe I read it wrong. Either way knee surgery sucks even I it’s arthroscopic.

Thinking Geronimo, but hate to do it.

Why not dump Hogan? What's the guy ever done? At least Geronimo has an unknown nothing

I have a man crush on Mixon. What do you think about offering someone like Emmanuel Sanders for him after this weekend's games in a 0.5ppr? I have pretty bad RB situation (Collins, AP///Chubb, Blount, Jones III, Cunningham) but pretty good WR situation with Goodwin currently on the bench who I'd slot in when healthy (2wr 2rb 2 flex 1te)

So 1 do we think Mixon owner does it? 2 do we expect Mixon to get close to a full load after q surgery like this? 3 am I stupid for offering?

I guess Hogan tends to be productive when healthy. But yeah your point is well taken. I may wait and see who blows the most and dress a kicker late. As of now not rostering one.

I'm trying to acquire Dalvin Cook in a PPR League from a team that's weak at WR.

In a vacuum, is John Brown (2 solid showings) + Alfred Morris (who should be coming off a good showing against the LOLions) for Dalvin Cook offensively bad?

I was hoping to shop Duke Johnson, but he crapped the bed and has no value.

I don't think most owners accept that this early in the season. You gotta remember that people's minds are still being affected by ADP's. You can send it, but I'd be shocked if it's accepted.

yeah.. thats an insult. comparable ADP is the measure of a fair trade, unless say a Yeldon was to takeover for an injured Fournette etc

Anyone think Kelce is a signifcant downgrade since KC now has a QB that can throw deep a lot more? It's a narrative, but there are plenty QBs with strong arms who use the TE too.

KC has a bad defense with an elite QB. You would think, even though they have an elite WR that's going to get his first, there will be plenty left over to support Kelce as a TE1. Look for defenses to start adjusting to Tyreek in the next couple weeks opening things up for Kelce and some of the other skill players on KC.

Bloom from FBG put Tyreek's over/under on receiving TD's this season at 14.

Dam, I don't see how this isn't drug/alcohol related, unfortunately.

Speaking of Gordon:

12 team PLR, 3 WR+FLX. Buddy’s team has Gordon, Goodwin, Alshon and he’s also stashing Dez. He’s starting Ginn and Pettis this week...he desperately needs WR depth.

I offered Crowder and Mike Williams for his Diggs. Too much?? Too little? Insulting?? It seems right(ish) considering his situation.

If Kelce has another bad box score this weekend he could be a possible buy "low". 6 targets last week, lets see this week.

Kind of hard to buy low when someone drafted in the 3rd though so he'll be in value limbo but I wouldn't be too concerned yet.

Really wonder if Dez is a brown soon, or not.

Dez is done, no?

His physical ability deteriorated enough and he never worked at perfecting his craft so he has no savvy vet skills to make up for the drop off. So he's a slightly above average receiver (being generous) and a nice big, cancerous tumor for the locker room, QB and franchise.

I guess someone will give him a chance at some point and that will be that.

His last year he had 69 catches, 838 yards, 6 TDS. And his QB often couldn't hit the broad side of a barn. He's not his old self, but lol he's not done. Someone is going to put him to use this year. He's 29. He's not 35.

In the end zone 1 on 1 he's still one of maybe 10 guys I'd be throwing a jump ball to in the NFL. Hard to coach that. But it's possible his twitter game will keep him from the NFL. He's like Trump that way.
