Now a good time to get Portis in Dynasty? (1 Viewer)

[King of the Jungle]

All crystal balls welcome.

I think he can probably be had for cheap right now. But his big workload in previous years seems to be taking its toll.

BUY or PASS?

 

[THE UNDERCOVER BROTHA]

BUY

Portis is a top claibure rb and surely a top 5 dynasty pick. I just landed him in my dynasty from a playoff team that Hade only LT-Portis/Betts-T.Henry/C.Brown.

The trade was:

I sent:

JJ/MBIII-M.Turner-ROMO

for

Portis/Betts-Cutler-Plummer.

Although i do like Turner and MBIII alot right now they dont get enuff carries for me.

Just dropped him in a keep one salary cap league were all free agents are bid on once a week. He was $38/$100 cap. I plan on bidding on him next week and keeping him for next year. If I can get him for $15 I'd be thrilled.

This will be covered in Buy Low Sell High this week.

 

[The Duff Man]

I have tried unsuccessfully to get him in both my dynasty leagues.

 

[turkishkamel]

why would anyone move him in a dynasty now? his value will never be lower than it is now. he's 25, hang on to him. of course if there was a panicking Portis owner in my league, i'd gladly buy low.

 

[Rounders]

I think if you can BUY, you should. The way I see it, next year they will have Campbell or another QB and with a year in Al Saunders scheme the offense should be better, combine that with a healthy and rested Portis and look out!

I just acquired him.

KJ & JJ for Portis and 2nd rd rookie pick.

I like the deal for me.

Just traded for Portis. Gave Tiki straight up, 1 for 1.

If you've got a team that's going to make the playoffs and has a good shot at a title, it makes perfect sense to move Portis for a player that can help you now.Although I wouldn't go as far as to trade him for Tiki. I'd want a guy with some hope for the future in return.

of course it always depends on who you can get back in return. Tiki? No. i'm not giving up on a 25 year old RB in a dynasty league unless i'm gonna get fair value back (another top young RB). then anything is possible.

If you have a top team this year, what about Portis for Tiki and Brandon Jacobs? Jacobs is going to be the #1 guy next year right? You get immediate help for this year and hopefully a future stud. Might be worth the gamble. I also have Gore and Jackson so my RB's are in decent shape.

Why not? Guy that gets Tiki is trying to win this year, guy that gets Portis is building for next year.

If not Barber ...what about Portis for Alexander in a dynasty league? Alexander could be of great help to a top fantasy team, while a team near the bottom (likely, given Alexander's injury) gets younger for the next few years.

 

[ydub]

Just offered Tiki and MJD for Portis in a 14 team dynasty. He's seriously considering....

Traded with a playoff contender, eh?

Both teams are contenders, neither team is the best in the league. I have depth at RB, him not so much. I'll start S Jackson/A Green this year, and hope for a S Jackson/C Portis backfield next year.But anyway, I would generally recommend trading for Portis if you're looking to get younger - but not for a possible future star RB.

Portis for Alexander in dynasty makes a lot of sense for Portis owners looking to make the playoffs and Alexander owners stuck looking toward next year.
