Offer of Julio Jones for D Baldwin and R Kelley (1 Viewer)

PPR League, 12 Teams, current roster is:

QB:  Mariota, Stafford, Smith
RB:  Hyde, Kelley, Ware, Charles, Hightower, Starks, K Taylor (TS), J Williams (TS), Artis-Payne
WR: Allen, Baldwin, Boldin, Landry, B Marshall, R Matthews, Sharpe, Thielen, M Bryant (Sus)
TE: Olsen, Clay, Gresham, McDonald
K/D: Prater, Hopkins, KC

Got an offer of Julio Jones for Baldwin and Kelley...  I am struggling as Baldwin scoring average in our league is within 3 PPG to Jones, and I really like Kelley as he should be the starter next year in Washington.  My gut says stay put.  I do have the 6th pick in our rookie draft for 4 rounds.  I think it's deep enough to get an RB to stash, but...

I would definitely take Julio for Baldwin and Kelley.  Kelley could be the starter there next year but I don't think he did enough to protect his job from incoming competition. I could see Washington picking up another back in the draft at the very least. If they do pick up another back in the draft or free agency Kelley's value will take a hit and he's going to be a tough sell.

I Wouldn't overthink this. Julio is way more valuable than these two put together. Easy accept.

Thanks !!!  As I mentioned, I will project using that 1.6 pick for a running back. (or best player if there is a huge difference)

Julio is the easy choice in this offer.  Kelley is just a guy and only had value due to there being nobody else worthwhile there.  He is nothing special.  Baldwin is a solid WR2 and nice player to have but neither of these is the game changer of Julio.  Take him as in the deal as soon as you can.

this is a HUGE gift, take it and run before the other owner comes down off his drug induced state

Julio is a stud.  I would want him.

Yes, but in a PPR for 16 games, Baldwin was within 1.6 PPG average, which I feel does not justify adding Kelley in the equation.  With the other options (especially running back combo) in Atlanta, there are more mouths to feed.  

Again, yes, Julio is a stud.  But I don't think Baldwin is that much less than Julio.

Should have given this info initially, my group of RBs and WRs are (sorry):
RB:  Hyde, Ware, Charles, Kelley, HIghtower, Starks, Artis-Payne, J Williams (TS), Tayler (TS)
WR:  Allen, Baldwin, Boldin, Landry, Marshall, R Matthews, Sharpe, Thielen, M Bryant

This is a weekly game first and Julio gives you more Boom potential for any given week while still having a solid floor (injuries aside).  This is why Julio is much more valuable in most people's eyes than Baldwin and why I would easily give up Kelley and Baldwin to get Julio.

Kelly also probably has very limited upside with this being ppr.  Easily replaceable.  I will take the best player.

Yeah you're over thinking it, go Julio. If u don't like Julio flip him for a Wr1 u do like.
