Just a little advice...... (1 Viewer)

I originally posted this in a different forum by mistake. This is where it belongs.

I was a Rodgers owner, and a Tate owner. Rodgers obviously a big hit, Tate will at least be back. What I'm looking for is just some advice. Am I good with my QB options? Or should try to trade for a more legit one (wire is garbage). Do i need to try and move a RB for another WR? Or am I good with what I have? There is obviously a lot of unknowns with other owners and their records and positional needs, but I'm just looking for a little direction. I personally want to try and upgrade QB and an additional WR, but not sure if I should. Let me know. And leave a link to any questions you have and I will try and be of help.

My roster, 10 team, PPR

QB- A. Rodgers, D. Carr, Big Ben

RB- K.Hunt, J. Howard, M. Ingram, Duke Johnson, T. Riddick, D. Henry

WR- A. Brown, B. Cooks, G. Tate, Sammy Watkins, Ty. Williams

TE- ASJ

 
I did receive some advice in the other forum. Most people said that I should be ok and to sit tight. Big Ben does have some good matchups ahead, and for me to just play the better matchups with him and Carr. Waiver wire doesn't hold much in terms of WR help, possibly Marquise Lee....But I did have this option present it's self 

The Dez Bryant owner is 1-5 and has zero running backs. He's looking for a RB.  Would Jordan Howard for Dez be something I should consider? This could be a sell high opportunity on Howard for me. I like him, and he is definitely getting a lot of carries, but not super confident on him going forward. Especially in PPR format. What do you think.....

I think you should always be looking to improve your team via trade.  If the value is there make the trade.  You didn't list your starting requirements.  That makes a difference as to whether you are fine at WR or need another one.  That being said, shopping Howard for Dez is a good value to me.  I would make that trade if possible.  You still have Hunt & Ingram as quality starters with some PPR guys and a high upside Henry.  You can afford the loss of Howard.  However, that could change based on starting requirements.

 
I think Howard for Dez would be selling him cheaply.  Selling him high would mean getting AJ Green or Jordy (before Rodgers' injury).  I don't think you need to try and sell Howard, he seems to have recovered nicely from his previous AC joint injury and he's getting fed a ton because the Bears realize he's their best running option.  Howard's averaging 2 catches per game - it's not a gamechanger in PPR, but it's not nothing.  But he's averaging 20 rushes per game and I don't see that slowing down any

If he's desparate for RBs, try offering him Ingram. After what he did this past week, THAT would be a sell high...

Starting requirements are 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 FLEX (RB/WR/TE), 1 RE

And a correction to my roster. I dropped D.Henry last week and added D. McFadden with the uncertainty of Zeke. I could try and hit up the AJ Green owner too, see if I could pull off that trade....

I agree. Ingram for Dez would be the perfect sell high, buy low scenario here. Dez has been mostly a disappointment since Romo stopped throwing to him but it looks like Dak is starting to get more "in tune" with him. And with the Elliott suspension looming, Dez stands to increase in productivity. Ingram is still going to be good going forward, but not THAT good, so it should be an easy sell, especially for someone hurting for RBs.

 
What kind of trade value does Duke Johnson have? What if I try shopping him for some WR help.

And what about this Zeke thing. Looking like he will be suspended now. Having McFadden on my team, should I possibly try trading him.

And I keep thinking about a QB upgrade. Not many QB's I would trade for, but Brady owner (same guy that owns Dez), is 1-5, has zero RB's. Would a Big Ben or D.Carr AND Howard be a possibility?

Sorry for the rambling, but my mind is going round n round. A week ago I loved my squad, but after a few injuries.....not as much
