Mahomes a keeper?

Postby smoppelpoppel » Sun Dec 09, 2018 2:00 am

Hi all

my season went 12-1, I enjoy my playoff bye and wonder how I could further improve my team in sig. post season. I just recently traded Chubb basically straight up for OBJ to a RB needy team - so I think am set at WR for a while. My two "weak" spots are in my opinion:

a) Making my QB in a 1 QB league a keeper, even it is Mahomes
b) Leonard Fournette

What do you guys think about that? First world problems? Mahomes a no brainer keeper in a 1 QB league? Or try to trade Mahomes/Fournette for a better RB (a lot of guys in our league love QBs and make them keepers)?

Cheers

I don't understand the issue, your sig says it's 7 keepers

1: Mahomes
2: LF
3: Kamara
4: OBJ
5: Nuk
6: Julio
7: Kelce

Seems pretty obvious to me. Yes Mahomes or any elite QB is worth using a keeper spot on if you have enough keeper spots, and you obviously do here.

Thanks for your feedback. I was just wondering if it might be better trying to trade for a non-QB keeper since QB value in 1 QB leagues is inflated. And then just pick a startable QB next draft. Guys like Big Ben typically last quite a while in our draft.

Sure you can try for a RB if the league does love QBs as much as you say, but you should be perfectly fine with just rolling with those 7 next year plus whatever you pick up in the draft.

Looks like you need a more challenging league to me. Chubb for OBJ is crazy. Really doesn’t matter either way. Your team will be stacked regardless.
12 Team. Roster 22, 4 TS. PPR, TE Prem (1.75). Start 1 QB, 5 flex (2 RB Max), 1 Def, 1 K
QB P. Mahomes, J. Goff, B Zappe (TS)
RB S. Barkley, N. Chubb, R. Stevenson, T. Pollard, J. Cook, K. Herbert, A. Mattison, E. Mitchell
WR AJ Brown, DK Metcalf, C. Kupp, A. Cooper, D. Hopkins, DJ Moore, B. Aiyuk, R. Doubs, K. Boutte (TS), C. Tillman (TS), M. Wilson (TS)
TE M. Andrews
Def Patriots, Ravens

Ya it's a rediculously stacked lineup if LF finally stays healthy most of the year. Even if he doesn't you are a title favorite.
