Trade for Kittle? (1 Viewer)

[Acadian]

I am in a dynasty ppr league with 1.5 ppr for TEs. I have depth at TE and was curious would it be worth moving some younger solid pieces for Kittle straight or even to improve my rb room. We can start multiple TEs as we have 3 flex positions, so we can start multiple TEs.

My TE room: LaPorta, Pitts, Fannin, Likely, Helm, and Barner.

My other thoughts was to attempt to upgrade at RB as my #2 rb spot is weaker as it’s K.Walker/Z.Charbonnet and then it’s JCM, and some rookie dart throws (B.Smith and T.Brooks) The Kittle owner has Jonathan Taylor, C. Howard, and J.Conner as their top backs.

What are the thoughts of trading Pitts for Kittle and weather the hamstring IR stint for a late season push in this TE premium league?

Or seeing if I could package Pitts and Walker for Taylor and Kittle. Not sure if they would go for that or prob want Charbonnet as I would but I’m pretty high on Charbonnet.

Thanks!

Not bad ideas on different routes you can go -- if you are a contender, it would be great to look to get Kittle and upgrade your running back.

> Pitts seems to have established a connection with Penix, and Pitts also looked pretty good and ran routes
> Pitts may see a few game upticks with Drake London dealing with that shoulder injury, and the unknown with Darnell Mooney
> Fannin seems to have claimed a sizeable role based on W1 usage and where he was lined up at
> Can try and pivot to getting Conner for an immediate plug-and-play production

Kittle for Pitts would be a great start, maybe adding a third-round pick to help smooth it over. I do believe Kittle should play another 2-3 years, pending health. This hammy hopefully won't linger as it's just a four-game stint. It does seem like you have depth and immediate production at the tight end position, though.

Knowing your league mates' tendencies is important -- who may be looking to trade, and if they like young players and/or draft picks. There may be other options to look to upgrade at running back -- or try Pitts and a second for Jonathan Taylor as a starting offer.

Other running backs with relatively lower value but immediate production: Aaron Jones, Tony Pollard, Alvin Kamara.
