I was offered Lamar Miller for Bell

PPR league

My team

D. Adam's, E. Saunders, M. Jones, D. Baldwin, C. Davis,  Q. Enunwa

D. Cook, R. Burkhead, M. Breida, T. Cohen, L. Bell

G. Kittle

Obviously I need some RB help with Bell out. Not sure how long this hold out will last. I want to hold onto Bell, but not sure if or when he will report. With so much uncertainty, I dont know if this is worth accepting or not. Just looking for some advice. The offering team also has Fournette and Zeke. Should I counter for Fournette? He wont let Zeke go. Or should I sit tight a little while longer

 
Him holding out til week 10 is what I'm afraid of. Not sure if I can maintain a winning record and stay in the playoff race with what I have.

For what it's worth though, this league is a 10 team league where 8 teams go to the playoffs. So I honestly have a good shot at the playoffs. 

 
So I did counter for Fournette instead of Miller. And he countered back with Fournette and TY for my Bell and D.Adams. 

Am I stupid for thinking this is a pretty good deal? 

 
It's closer than it appears on first glance. I'm not sure I'd trust TY as much as I like Adams. Your team is injured and sharks are swarming.

Any chance he'd consider Fournette/TY for Bell/Sanders?

If you have a 10 team league and 8 make the playoffs, you'd have to do pretty poorly to miss the playoffs.  And Bell would absolutely be a difference maker in the playoffs.

I agree that Bell is likely to hold out all 10 weeks.  But after this week is done (and Fournette is very unlikely to play Sunday), you've only got 8 weeks left to ride it out.

I lost Zeke for 6 weeks near the end of the season last year and still won my league.  Playoff points are generally worth more than regular season points.

Here's mine

I'd keep bell and tell this guy to pound sand.  In a ppr league, there should be other fill in receiving backs you could spot fill (Gio anyone?)..  Idk.  I just think you hold the cards and have a league winner.  If he sits all year.. then it is what it is...
