In this scenario, would you trade Stefon Diggs? (1 Viewer)

I play in a 10-team, 2 QB, .5 PPR league. My roster is:

QB: Cousins, Rivers, Siemian, Kizer

RB: David Johnson, Ajayi, Cohen, Henry, James White

WR: Michael Thomas, Diggs, Golden Tate, Corey Davis

TE: Jimmy Graham

DEF: Jacksonville

K: Succop

May or may not need to shore up my RB group a little bit more and keeping an eye on waivers with GB health situation, Dallas and the upcoming ruling on Elliott next week, and D'Onta Foreman. Just curious if you think I can shoot for a solid WR2 and an RB2 for him.

What about the following trade (since we play in a 2 QB league). The team I would trade with has the following roster:

QB: Mariota/Stafford

RB: Bell, C.J. Anderson, Mixon, Rob Kelley

WR: Jordy Nelson, Tyreek Hill, Jamison Crowder, Rishard Matthews, J.J. Nelson

TE: Rob Gronkowski, Jack Doyle

K: Dan Bailey

DEF: Minnesota

What if I offered: Philip Rivers, Trevor Siemian, Stefon Diggs for Marcus Mariota, Tyreek Hill, and Joe Mixon? This shores up his bye weeks in Weeks 7 and 8 at the QB position as well. From his perspective, is he giving up too much that he wouldn't even consider such an offer? Do I throw in an RB to replace Mixon or is then that giving up too much?

I wouldn't do it. While Mariota is an upgrade at your QB spot giving up both Rivers, Siemian and Diggs is too much. I prefer Diggs over Hill but that is really kind of a wash. Mixon does help your depth but really with the guys on your roster you should already be able to get through David Johnsons IR time. From his perspective I think he might take it simply because it does solve his QB bye week issue-however there could be a QB on the waiver wire that might get him by his bye weeks without having to give up as much. Since he doesn't need to make a move for a few weeks I'd hold off for now. You can offer it up down the road but I'd just be patient for now.
