Tight End Conundrum (1 Viewer)

Half Point PPR....I can keep two between Greg Olson, Tyler Eifert and Cameron Brate. 

I am trying to field offers and I am by far best team in league. Our keeper cut date is fast approaching and the market is suggesting I can get a late first for Eifert, early to mid second for Olsen and a third for Brate. 

My gut says get what I can for Olsen with his age and Cam's struggles to pass but would be happy to keep any two of these guys. 

Leave a link and I would be happy to help out.

PPR or straight scoring???  Olson is getting older, but is still a top 5.  Not sure on Eifert's injury, but he's top 5 and slightly ahead of Olson in dynasty rankings.  Tough choice here.  I think Olson for an early 2nd might be where I go, just on age.

I try to move Olsen and see what you can get.... or Brate, but he isn't fetching much right now.....but if you kept Olsen, Eifart in the end......

 
I would probably move Eifert for the first rounder.  He has never come close to playing a full season and has had some serious injuries.  Olsen has another year or two in him for sure and Brate  is a nice backup that has more value as a backup than the pick you can get for him.   

 
I see the three as interchangeable, so I take the 1st. Olsen is older but has a couple years left, look at guys like gates/tonyg/witten, they are able to play into their 30s at a reasonably good level.  Brate looked like a solid young te on the rise, posting TD numbers like eifert the 2nd half of the season. 

 
I keep Brate and trade the other 2, tight ends pop up all the time on waivers (like Brate), maybe try to buy low on a guy like Hooper or something.

 
Assuming those values I keep Olsen and Brate.  As a top contender I see Olsen as the most valuable for you.  I'm not sold on Brate (big year based on high TD production) but if I can only get a 3rd round pick I would keep him and sell Eifert for a first round pick.  

 
In reality, "the market" is meaningless. Throw them out there and evaluate the real offers. No point in trying to evaluate hypotheticals.
