Kareem for Odell (1 Viewer)

Sell Kareem High? I have been offered Odell and Marshawn for Kareem. I also have Zeke, Julio, Demaryius, Jordan Howard, Sammy Watkins, Tarik Cohen. 

Standard legue, 10 team. 

 
That's a tough one. The odds of Hunt maintaining his current pace 21 rushing td's and 2100 yards isn't likely but even so he is clearly looking like he'll be the #1 RB this year. I love OBJ but I'd bet on Hunt over him given the poor play of the Giants even with Lynch thrown in.

 
Gimme Hunt, but only if you feel comfortable about where you're at with the receiver position. I don't own him anywhere, but Kareem just looks the part of football and fantasy all star right now.

 
That would leave you painfully thin at RB. What are your starting requirements and what RB's are on waivers and who else are you going to drop?
2 rb, 2 wr, 1 flex. I have Zeke, Jordan and Tarik plus I have Woodhead on IR. I would drop Copper Kupp. Alvin Kamara and Jalen Richard on waivers

I would take OBJ and Evans for Hunt but you'll need to pick up a RB to cover Chicago's bye week since Woodhead will still be on IR leaving you only Zeke that week or see if you can trade one of your Chicago guys out for another RB that has a different bye week-you can try packaging one of them with Watkins since you will probably never ever play him with having Evans, OBJ, Julio and Thomas. If you can't do a package to get a slight upgrade at RB you will just have to drop Watkins for that extra RB.

 
Not just no; but hell no.

Youd actually be buying high on Beckham, based on one game where the Giants offense resembled competence.

this is a NYG team with a crappy OL and a terrible running game. Their offensive output is hindered by both.

Lynch is, IMO, a bit of a FFB bust this year and his schedule is gonna get brutal. 2 against KC & 2 against Denver is bad enough. 

Meanwhile you've got Hunt putting up vodeo game numbers, a coach committed to using him and an OL built for his success. 

You'd be insane to make this trade IMO.

Disclaimer: I am a huge Hunt fan, and would never deal him for ODB & Lynch.

Didn't he say ODB & Lynch? 

 
Look at it this way: 
Option 1:  Start Julio, DThomas, Zeke, Hunt, Howard -- Watkins as 6th man
Option 2:  Start Julio, OBJ, Zeke, Howard, Evans -- DThomas as 6th man

I can't help but salivate at the potential of being able to start Julio, OBJ, and Evans at flex every week, plus Zeke and Howard at RB.  That's as formidable a starting 5 as there could possibly be, even in an 8 team league.  But man it really leaves you thin at RB, especially on Chicago's bye week.  I'd counter him and see if he would throw you a RB back if you also added in DThomas or Watkins.  Something like OBJ/Evans/Powell for Hunt/Watkins just so you get back a RB you could plug in in case of emergency.
