What RB do I ask for? Have Mahomes and Jackson at QB...Quick decision needed! (1 Viewer)

10 Team .5 PPR League.  Start 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1FLEX, 1K, 1DEF

I currently have Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes and really need help at the RB position.  I am 0-2 to start, but am also the #2 scoring team in the league, so it's been at least some bad luck.  Was offered Carson for Jackson and Kamara for Mahomes.  With Brees gone, do I still need to do the Kamara deal?

My current RB are- Kerryon Johnson, LeSean McCoy, Royce Freeman, Tevin Coleman, Raheem Mostert and Frank Gore.  UGLY!

I would not trade Mahomes. While I like Jackson, I doubt he will be as consistent going forward and he has had two pretty easy matchups. You want Mahomes. Try to work a deal with Jackson instead. Carson is probably a fair deal.

I just worry about the "fumble-itis" Carson showed in that last game.  Penny came in and did well.  I may have an option to trade for Penny if I get Carson, but it's no guarantee.

 
I'm in almost the exact same position except no flex.

I was offered Carson for Jackson and turned it down.  I have AJones, Kerryon, Michel, Monty and Singletary.  I could use a WR2 after JJones, but I'm thinking I might just stay put for now.  So many QBs have gone down, I'll be kicking myself if I move Jackson and Mahomes gets hurt.  I know that's not very aggressive, but at 1-1 I can hold out and see if other teams get more desperate.

I know....at 0-2 I am tempted to do Mahomes for Kamara and just go for it.  If Kamara can be close to himself for a few weeks until Brees gets back and Jackson keeps rolling, things could get really good.  That's a few "ifs" though, but my whole RB corp is a big bunch of "ifs"!

 
What are QB TDs worth? 4 or 6 pts. Honestly, I would trade one of those QBs for 2 RBs, or an RB and a top flight WR. 

 
You can do better than Carson for Jackson. I would not trade Mahomes for any player in a 10 team league.
