OBJ is available, owner looking for a stud RB

Postby tjason1 » Mon Aug 13, 2018 12:33 pm

For team in sig. I have decent RB depth. OBJ owner only has a single starting RB on his roster. I know he likes Cook.

I think it's a no-brainer to agree to the swap, but I'm pretty sure he'll want an additional piece. Any suggestions on what to add to try to seal the deal? I'm salivating at the through of rolling out OBJ/Hopkins/Julio each week.

You could try adding a 1st but doubt he takes it.

I tried that in another in a similar situation. The other owner asked for Cook and Mixon.

I had a suggestion in a different thread just to offer Bell straight up, I may go that way instead. It may be the time for me to sell high on Bell.

I don't like that suggestion at all. Your team is set up much better at WR than at RB. You need Bell much more than OBJ.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I'd rather have Bell and OBJ.

I don't disagree. But I hate losing on their current value, even though it might be the right move.

If you can pull off Cook + a 1st for OBJ, I would do it. If the other owner approached you about it then I think this has a pretty good shot at getting accepted.

I'd try it with Cook, IMO he's being severely overvalued based on 4 games

I'd offer Cook plus one of your WR prospects like Ridley and if he's off maybe a 2nd but honestly would still be willing to add a first. You'd be giving a super hyped player and future prospects for a proven stud. Easy worth it to me and cheap on OBJ. Not any of those players will put OBJ numbers up, and OBJ+Bell would be deadly more often than not. Offer it up and if he rejects ask why and tell him you think you two can work it.

Personally I'd even consider Cook+Julio. Not sure how people feel lately, but Julio is still a beast and I'm sick of him.

Like, I said you could try but in all honesty would you make that deal? Most people I know wouldn't even think about it given Cook has no body of work to speak of and a future first today isn't worth very much for one of the very best players in fantasy.

I know I would instantly reject but you are correct if he is motivated ( and really inexperienced ) it could seal the deal.

I do not own OBJ - but I have to imagine you would need something like Cook, Cooks & a 1st to be honest. Might be an overpay but likely what it takes.

Cook himself is nowhere near OBJ.
