Help with BIG trade offer received (1 Viewer)

[Ray Barboni]

Hey guys, tough trade question here. I just got a really great offer ( imo ) ... 

 Redraft 10man league .5ppr 

QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/TE/FLX

I’m in last place, and the lowest scoring team in the league. I’ve also been hit with multiple injuries and COVID byes.

Here’s the offer:

Give:

Derrick Henry / AJ Brown / Julio Jones

Get:

Hopkins / Amari / Montgomery / DJ Moore

Here’s my roster AFTER the trade:

Lamar / Tannehill 

Montgomery/Gibson/Damien Harris/Ingram 

Hopkins/Lockett/Cooper/DJMoore/Higgins/Jeudy 

Fant/Hurst

Not a fan of my RB’s at all If I take this trade, but the value seems huge.

Please help? Leave a link and I’ll get ya back.

thanks

It's a fair trade in and of itself.  It gives you depth (4 players instead of 3) but overall it doesn't make your team any better. Doesn't tank you either though, but being in last place I don't see how this helps you climb out of the cellar.  Fairly significant downgrade at RB, upgrade at WR to get Hopkins but then assuming everyone is healthy you're not even starting Moore.  He'll help with covering byes but that's about it.  IMO not worth pulling the trigger unless you just really like one of the players involved.

Really appreciate the reply dude ... and that’s basically how I’m feeling about the trade as well.

Just tough to decline the value - but what’s the point if one of the players won’t crack my starting lineup. 
 

thanks again

Yeah no way do I do that. Brown hasn't really yet come on this year. Henry's points would be hard to replace in the RB slot and Julio probably still has a few years left in him. I love Hopkins and Moore is good value too here, but not enough is coming back to make it make sense for you.

I'd also call it even.  I think Julio might be on the down slope, so I'm calling Hopkins a big upgrade over Jones.  D. Henry down to Montgomery is obviously a big downgrade.  I'd call Amari Cooper and AJ Brown an even swap, but Brown has already had is Bye week.  DJ Moore is a slight sweetener, but not enough to make me go "oh wow".  So a fair trade but not a must do.  I understand your predicament.

Here's mine
