Traded L. Murray for Kelce - Updated (1 Viewer)

[rick6668]

Currently 6-1, team that is 5-2 desperately needs an RB and sent me 3 offers:

A. Robinson for M.Forte

A.Robinson for J. White

A. Robinson for L. Murray

This is a start 2WR 2RB 1TE and 1flex.

My guys:

RB's: D. Johnson, M. Forte, J. White, T. Riddick, D. Lewis, L. Murray

WR's: Hilton, Cooper, Shepherd, Stills

TE's: Barnidge, Doyle

His guys:

RB's: Powell, Yeldon, Jennings, Coleman

WR's: A.Robinson, Crabtree, K. Benjamin, Fitzgerald, Beasley

TE's: Gronk, Brate

Robinson doesn't really help me much other that depth and bye week fill in, tried to counter Doyle and Murray for Gronk, but no dice.

At this point, what I could really use is a TE upgrade and I'd rather not make his team better by him getting a decent RB unless I can really improve my team.

Would a Murray for Fitz deal be to my advantage or should I just hold.  Looking at long term.

Thanks for any replies, will respond to yours.

I would deal White for him quickly. ... between Blount and Lewis coming back soon, White has no value to me.  Then trade a WR for a TE.

Thanks for the reply.  I play this guy this week.  Any concern on that?

ya i agree i would take arob for white before he changes his mind

I am not sold that Lewis is coming back anywhere close to his performance last year.  It could happen but two knee surgeries and I am hesitant.  I think White still has a nice floor (in PPR especially) but I would move him for A-Rob.

Yeah, I'm a ####### and now he's not accepting White, but wants Murray instead.

Should have just pulled the trigger.  dang it.

I'd deal away Latavius Murray for Robinson.  He's still in a 3-way committee and the Raiders are a pass-first team.  Far more upside for Robinson.

Thanks,

I'm going to wait til after I play him this week to see.  There are 3 teams at the top and the other 2 are lacking at RB. (both 5-2).  I think holding the RB's might actually hurt them more.

Marv Levy always said some of your best trades are the ones you don't make, so waiting would make some sense.  My own policy is I never ever trade with the person I am playing against this week.

This worked out.  Won the last 2 weeks.  This past week with Murray in flex and won by 1 point.

Need to unload some RB's after getting by the bye situation this week.  With Lewis looking to return, I'll have 5 legit starters.

RB's: D. Johnson, M. Forte, J. White, T. Riddick, D. Lewis, L. Murray

Just traded L. Murray for Kelce.  Trades end tomorrow, 

RB's: D. Johnson, M. Forte, J. White, T. Riddick, D. Lewis, L. Murray

TE's: Doyle, L. Green

I needed TE help bad, Needed to overpay, but with solid RB's and a 9-2 record this was the best I could muster.

Anyone think this was a bad trade for me?  I still have the best RB's in the league and can start 3 max.  Johnson, Forte and Riddick will be starting and have Lewis in the wings.
