I think it's funny that I'm being advised to buy Larry Johnson low after a game where he averaged over 10 yards a touch and a TD every 5.
What, is he going to average 15 yards a touch and a TD every 3 this week? I mean, that's pretty much what he'd have to do to drive up his value right now. No player is ever available "cheap" after they put up 10 ypc and 2 TDs on 10 touches.
I suppose I should be looking to buy Keenan McCardell, Carnell Williams, and Willie Parker cheap right now, too, huh? Maybe I should try to trade for C. Anderson before his value goes up? Make a move on Jimmie Smith while he's still a bargain?
Come on SSOG, I normally agree with your posts, but not this time! All the guy is saying is that he thinks LJ's cost will only get higher. I don't see that as a bad assessment.Can you get him cheap? NO!
Can you move a CuMart or Dom Davis to get him? Maybe
Could you move a couple of quality players to get him? Probably
All of this is assuming the original poster is talking about a keeper or dynasty league.
For a re-draft, no, I wouldn't be moving CuMart for him. In dynasty, absolutely!
It is obvious that there are two camps out there in FF. One says Priest is still the man, and one says LJ is gaining playing time each game.
So, if you can get LJ from one of the non-believers or "sharks" hoping to prey on your "over-exhuberance" or manlove for LJ, and move him a top 20 WR from your depth in a keeper or dynasty league, then I say to do it!
For every one bashing the original poster out there for this thinking, there is someone else out there looking to secure the better of the two backs going forward.
Just my $0.02.
