**Update** Should I trade for Mixon?

Postby crip7300 » Mon Jan 21, 2019 11:51 pm

This is for team 4 in sig.
In talks with the Mixon owner he wants Big Ben (1 QB league), Mack or Aaron Jones and 1.04 for Mixon, I think this is pretty close, should I pull the trigger and would you add a little more like the 2.05 to get the deal done if he asks for more, and who would you rather keep Mack or Aaron Jones?

***UPDATE***
I traded Aaron Jones, 1.04 and 2.05 and acquired Mixon for team 4 in my sig.
I'm pretty happy with the deal, just curious who will go at 1.04 now.

I think that's about right. I wouldn't go far as an easy accept, and I would personally want to keep Mack over Jones, but it's basically two early/mid firsts in value for a good young RB.

I'd go with Mixon. I'd try to keep A.Jones over M.Mack, but that's close.

Lots of Mixon deals around here... I'd be buying quickly at the price of 1.04, an RB2 with question marks and an old QB

You should be using resources to acquire a wr.

Yeah you’re probably right. get mixon and then figure out the rest. I find it interesting how many mixon trades are apparently occurring. Why are there so many people willing to give up a young talented workhorse? He’s probably my rb 6 right now.

Haha yeah I'm starting to wonder what's going on. 6 is about his highest after the Big 5. I could see someone wanting Gordon or Chubb more, but that's about it. RB 6-8 is pretty damn valuable

1) Mixon easily.

2) Regarding Mack vs. A. Jones, it's your preference. An argument could go either way. For me, I'd prefer Jones. I think that he has top-10 points-per-game upside. Given your depth at RB, I'd be comfortable with him missing a number of games each season to get that top production when he plays.

3) As for your WRs, yes you could use one more. I wouldn't move mountains to get it, though. You can start up to 5 RBs -- and you have more than enough worthy RBs (especially after acquiring Mixon!) to start 5 each week. The big issue for you is depth -- you have no one to play if/when OBJ misses a couple of games and/or if DJ Moore isn't ready to take the leap next year (and with Cam's potential shoulder, too...). With all that in mind, I would strongly suggest shopping OBJ and seeing if you can get two bona fide starting WRs. Maybe Golladay and Hilton (or pick whatever two guys like that that you prefer; don't get caught up in the specific names).

All that being said, back to #1: Yes, Mixon easily.

Good luck!

This is a good price for Mixon, as everyone has said. I wouldn't hesitate on it too long, even if you have to add a 2nd. That said, I like the idea of shopping OBJ for more reliable WR options. He is electric when he's on the field, but he ends up on the bench too often for my liking. If you got another top-10 WR with one from WR2 range, that would fit well with the RB core you have.
