OMG, someone in my standard league dropped Mark Ingram Oct 3rd (to add James White). My opponent this week (Thielen/Adams owner) added him and dropped Ajayi this afternoon. I know I didn't notice it, but I am overloaded already with RBs. But what were the other owners doing? And I know the former owner was needing RBs, but man... dropping Ingram just before he plays?
I flipped Ingram for David Johnson during the game last night. Now I have leveon(via trade), d Johnson (via trade), nuk, davante Adams and fournette. Hopefully this is a team that will peak late.
Hopefully Kamara also limits Ingram's value. It was a perfect situation for Ingram usage last night... fresh legs coming off suspension, and Kamara was a bit dinged. Since I own neither... hopefully they both limit what individually can do.
Was this a bad trade? I actually played this guy after making the trade and still won handily. I needed a TE but hated having to give up Adams for a guy that will "possibly" make his return in week 7. Here's my team as it stands:
Dalton. While OAK is a bad defense (bad team) Wilson hasn't even been running this year. And offenses go crazy against PIT. Should be a shootout, while the SEA-OAK game could be a grinder.
Does either my Sony Michel or my Joe Mixon for his Tyreek Hill seem like a reasonable trade a decent return for a RB? I am good at RB, need a good WR. If that guys says no... would AJ Green be a reasonable target (probably requiring Mixon).
I would guess that it would take both of those RBs to acquire Green or Hill. You may be able to get someone in the Fuller/Ridley range for one of them.
Thanks, I'd could toss in Manny Sanders to help make up for any WR impact. Or include Phillip Lindsay if I had to (wouldn't want to give up both Mixon and Michel... rather make do with WRs I have/can get off waivers. So either RB wouldn't be enough to get a WR? Two other targets... Mike Evans and Cooper Kupp.
TY Hilton owner (also has Landry, Boyd, Golladay) is interested in Conner or Michel. Hilton's hammy is a concern. Boyd is interesting, but only for Lindsay. Any of those seem good (and for which RB of Conner, Michel, Lindsay)?
LOL, not dumb... what did Cowell get last week to make you want to start him this week? remind me of your other RBs, but I'd rather have kelce than Freeman. It accept.
Edit: I'm going to change my rec to Michel for Hill -- Mixon is a work horse and with the Pats who knows what Michel's usage will be week to week.
Do not make that move having an elite TE this season is a rare luxory. Plus the Atlanta RB situation is a fantasy nightmare.
My running backs are: -Ezekial Elliot -Devonta Freeman -James White -Isaiah Crowell -Matt Brieda -Austin Ekeler 12 person leauge, .5ppr I've been streaming tight ends and gotten 0 pts multiple times. They have Gronk and Kelce and no RB2, so think it makes sense for both of us. I would be getting Kelce in the trade
Hearing some talk that Peyton not happy with Kamara and his open support of Kap - that might explain the RB1 playing backup to a guy coming back from suspension.
