Sell Davante Adams? (1 Viewer)

[wheeleke]

My team is off to a strong start and lead my league in both record/points. Starting to accumulate some injuries but such is life in this sport. Play in a 10-team, .5 PPR, 2 QB league. We start 2 QB, 2 WR, 2 RB, TE, Flex (RB/WR/TE), K, and DEF, and then we have one IR spot. My roster is as follows after some trades in the last week:

QB: Patrick Mahomes, Kirk Cousins, Sam Darnold, Mason Rudolph (Mahomes is in my IR spot)

RB: Leonard Fournette, Derrick Henry, Latavius Murray, Miles Sanders (may try and pick up Joe Mixon who was just dropped and/or Alexander Mattison)

WR: Davante Adams, Mike Evans, Julio Jones, Jamison Crowder, Kenny Stills

TE: Travis Kelce

DEF: Vikings

K: Jason Myers, Justin Tucker (on bye this week)

There's little clarity about how long Adams will be out and certainly when he returns, there's a high risk of re-injury with turf toe (see A.J. Green in 2014 and 2018). Wondering if I should look to sell now or when he's closer to his return. Or just hang tight and ride it out with him over the remainder of the season? Would likely try and sell for a RB2/WR2 combo if possible. Thoughts?

I would try and sell him but I wouldn't give him away.  You will likely get more nibbles the closer he is to returning.  My guess is that you won't get many reasonable offers (if any) because people will try and low ball you because of the injury....and it's hard to blame them. 

If you really don't want to deal with the headache of "questionable" and possible re-injury in game then if you can get a startable couple of pieces it's probably worth it.

He is only a sell low guy now, I'd hang onto him as whatever you get for him wo't be much and will probably not help you. Drop Tucker and pick up Mixon.
