Enough of the stupid BS. If he does nothing, fine. Grant ain't shit. Gordon has immense upside. That's like saying you'd rather have Vince Carter than Anfernee Simons. Get outta here....don't ever re-neg on anything, ever again! You are so hard-up for trade action on a player that has done absolutely nothing. If you had money to bet, I'd offer a side bet that Ryan Grant finishes with more points than Flash Nobody by the end of this season
Not quite the best analogy in a one year league. Now if it was a keeper league that is a different story.
You know what I'm talking about.
Basically just this one.
It's an upside play. How much do toy wanna gamble for a potential top 5 WR?
Wow, the hype train is strong with this one!
My opinions align with those of fantasy experts.
So he's your WR5 but he's going to possibly be a top 5 WR in the whole league?
I understand I’m just saying it’s hard in my opinion to come up with a trade that both sides would be happy with for Gordon. There’s a reason why NE only had to give up a 5th rounder.
And if he doesn't play at least 10 of the 14 games remaining for NE then the Browns have to give NE a 7th rounder.
@BonesJones you better just keep Gordon if he is so good. A. Brown didn't show up at work today, so you might need to find a replacement for him this week anyway.
yeah I am in no way trying to argue with Bones here, I think we all know Gordon’s really good, but theres a ton of risk there too. In order to give bones somewhat equalish talent would mean giving up a talented player that doesnt have as much risk. I was looking at WR’s I could offer (Corey Davis and Dede Westbrook) both have had pretty averageish numbers for a WR this year and thats probably who they are, will consistantly get 10-17ish points. I would think about doing Cooper Kupp but he’s the third option for the rams after Cooks and Robert woods. he’s consistant too. Gordon if playing is better than all of them though, the problem is well we havent actually seen Gordon stay on the field for a long time now and im just not sure Id give up a consistant performer for a giant question mark. i recognize he’s on par talent wise with Cooks and maybe even OBJ but theres no way Id give up on them for Gordon.
So Grant for Gordon and he backed out? I wanted to pick up Grant last week, but decided to go with Kittle (I dropped Breida and of course he went off)....don't ever re-neg on anything, ever again! You are so hard-up for trade action on a player that has done absolutely nothing. If you had money to bet, I'd offer a side bet that Ryan Grant finishes with more points than Flash Nobody by the end of this season
when I get a chance I’ll take a look see if anything sparks my interest.
Yes, he was the 5th WR I drafted, but he could potentially be my WR2.
I'm glad someone gets it!
It would be dumb to not see whay offers are at there. This is a pretty stingy league when it comes to trades though. I should see if Perez wants him, he's a Pats fan.
They should just call it the, “you touched a quarterback rule”...
I was waiting for that reaction, was 99% sure it was going to be from Bones though lol.
Before I vote, what is your possible reasoning for this trade? I would understand trading Fournette for a healthy RB, even at a slight downgrade but for another injured RB of lesser value seems weird. Fournette was expected to practice today too.
my reasoning is this I like my starting rb’s right now. They both get targets and carries. Fournette is oft hurt and in “questionable” mode. He’s very consistent when he plays. Ajayi will have more bad games then Fournette but he also has some incredible games. In my opinion he’s more boom / bust than fournette. However outside of OBJ I dont really have any guys that are going to “boom” very much. I won while Fournette was benched last week because of injuries.
Okay, some follow up questions...
