Keep Zeke or not? (1 Viewer)

[red]

2-player keeper league, but all players go back in the pool next for a full redraft. 

I can keep Zeke and Mike Evans (no one else of value) or trade a 5th round draft pick to acquire Ajayi and keep him. 

If the suspension is 6 games, I will trade for Ajayi. If it's 4 or less games, then I'll keep Zeke. But honestly I'm tired of all this BS and the headache it's causing. 

TIA

My 2 cents, Zeke is young and should have several years of solid play in him so even if it brings about a rough start, in a keeper league, I'd definitely hang onto him.  If you checkout the dynasty rankings, he's ranked as the #3 keeper in a dynasty league.  Ajayi is ranked #25, a considerable step down.  

Some players are worth taking the time to develop if they have a few years in them and, in his case, it looks like he's all ready to go.  Having an RB that is a top running back year to year can make a big difference.  I hope this helps!

I don't keep him for the simple reason that even if he gets through this suspension, what's he going to do next? He just seems like one of those cats that's going to get into something repeatedly (Josh Gordon). I'd look to draft one of the other young RBs this year. I personally like Cook or McCaffrey. However, Hunt, Perrine, and Mack all look like they're going to have exceptional value down the road.

Please answer mine,
