What would it take to trade Zeke?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

What would it take to trade Zeke?

Postby Oblong_Ball » Sun Jul 23, 2017 9:43 am

Just got offered Demaryius Thomas, Jarvis Landry, and Derrick Henry straight up for Zeke in my 16-teamer.

My team is in my signature, thoughts?

This guy also has T.Gurley, L.Fournette, M.Evans, M.Thomas, D.Hopkins, and K.Allen on his roster. Feels like I should ask for different pieces, but who? He wants Zeke really bad.

I love Henry but I'd be trading my super stud RB for a handcuff with potential, at least for this season...

What about Fournette, Henry, Landry for Zeke?

Keep Zeke. Your team is better than his. If you trade that guy Zeke his team becomes better! Keep him!

Not a terrible starting offer.
I'd counter with zeke for M. Thomas, Landry and henry. In a 16 team league the depth is valuable

RB: C. McCaffrey, C. Carson, K. Johnson, R. Penny, J. Samuels, D. Pumphrey

Not a bad offer. Depth is important in a 16 teamer, so I don't mind moving Zeke. Your counter isn't bad, but I'd swap Henry with a WR.

i think you have to walk away with lenny or gurley here, not henry. you should not have to sacrifice zeke to your lineup in exchange for the backup henry. whichever wr's that he throws in there are essentially depth for you since you own obj, ajg, arob, crief. we dont know your format, but zeke is a starter in any format.

the only way this makes sense is if you only start 1 rb and can start 5 or 6 wr's in a ppr. im inclined to think that your likely receiving an offer based on the fact....that you cant start everyone , and essentially, you hurting your starting lineup while increasing your depth significantly. you both have crazy teams for a 16 teamer....the league must have been going for years.....

its a strong offer, i would counter wth you getting lenny or gurley, then nuk instead of dt. if you can get it to gurley/lenny, dt, landry for zeke...i would take it. i dont know your league, but that seems like excellent value for a 16 teamer.

Awesome insight, much appreciated! It's full PPR, start 2 RB's 3 WR's and a flex spot where we can start R/W/T. SO technically we can start 3 RB's or 4 WR's. This league has been going for some time and we're the two teams that have won the championship 3 out of the last 4 seasons!

I would want Fournette over Henry. I like Fournette Henry and Landry for Zeke also. For me, Zeke is a stud and I would rather keep him unless you feel his red flags are going to be a long term issue,
