temper your Gore enthusiasm (1 Viewer)

he had a strong showing, but two things:

1. it was versus arizona

2. Jonas Jennings and Larry Allen both left the game with leg injuries.

i think i saw jennings return but KFFL reports that he didn't. IMO, losing the starting left side of the OL and playing a revamped STL def next week will make gore's numbers return to earth....perfect time to trade him.

While I'm not ready to declare Gore a top 10 rb (yet), I think it is premature to trade him now unless an unbelievable deal comes along. My reasoning:1. We don't know if the Jennings or Allen will miss any time. His numbers were still decent after Allen went out.2. Gore was prominent in the passing game.3. I'm not sure you'll be able to get good value for him right now. Admittedly, I play in a league with 12 owners, most of whom have been in the league for 10+ years, so I'm not dealing with inexperienced owners.
