Carl Eller's Dead Liver
Footballguy
Is anyone concerned about Julio Jones going forward? This is his second foot fracture in the exact same spot, which is a little concerning. Is anyone selling him? What would it take for you to move Julio?

Julio Jones - Dynasty Post Injury (1 Viewer)
- Thread starter Carl Eller's Dead Liver
- Start date
I own Julio in 2 different dynasty leagues, one with a salary cap, and one without. In the cap league, I'll look to move him so that I can save some money and add assets, but in a standard dynasty league I think he's a strong hold right now. His upside still prices him as a top 5 or 6 dynasty WR easily and unless someone is willing to give up a better WR for him (there are fools in every group), I don't see any way you get a fair return on his price.

I don't own him in dynasty but my guess is most owners aren't concerned. I was out of the playoffs and the Julio owner was in the playoff hunt. He needed a running back pretty badly and I made several offers. Sproles, and Cobb for Julio. Decker, and Spiller for Julio and Decker, Vernon Davis and Sproles for Julio and nothing worked. I have enquired a couple times during the off season and he has asked for Cobb, 1.5, 1.8 and Spiller, or Martin, 1.5 and 2.01.
I place Julio firmly in the top 5 overall in PPR.
If I was convinced that I had to give up Martin and 1.5/2.01 for one of AJ Green, Julio Jones or Dez Bryant (probably Demaryius too) and couldn't get away with giving up less, I would pull the trigger on it (depending of course on league parameters and assuming PPR). I would also do Cobb and the 1.8 for Julio, maybe not the Cobb/1.5/1.8 though. Spiller/1.5/2.1 I might pull the trigger on as well.

Yes concerned. It's the same foot obviously. Without the injury, he would be in my top 3 for WRs in dynasty. Now I would rather have Calvin, Green, Thomas, Gordon, and Bryant. After that you have to take the risk on him. Now in my salary cap league, I would be more worried about locking him into a long-term contract. But would not bump him lower in the rankings. Just would be cautious about signing him longer than 2-3 years.

How can he ask for two different offers that are so far out of balance?? The first one is an obvious NO, but that second one to me I think I would do for Julio
edit................read that wrong, I thought the first one was Cobb, Spiller, pick 5, and pick 8
Cobb, 5, 8 was still too much.
Spiller or Martin, plus 5 and 13, I would have done

no way I take Thomas (injuries and ancient Qb), Dez (head case) or Gordon (head case and no Qb) over Julio. Situationally he's got the best cast around him by far of those players. I traded Calvin for Julio and Lacy a few weeks ago to give you an indication of where I value him.

You traded Calvin for Julio.................................that sentence should have ended there. Getting Lacy also??? that is silly of that other guy

I wouldn't trade Calvin for Julio straight up. But he's a Lions fan and I am a Packers fan so when that offer showed up in my inbox, I took about 3 minutes to click accept.

No you read that right I typed it wrong. His offers are always out of whack. When we were talking last season before the trade deadline he kept sending me offers and I kept rejecting and he was venting that he had sent out like 50 offers and not one had been accepted. I didn't have the heart to tell him that his offers were always terrible. On several occasions he has told me he is interested in Spiller but would refuse to pay top 20 running back price for him. He tried trading me Peyton Manning the year he was injured for Percy Harvin and Decker.
