Melvin Gordon or 1.3

Postby Weeping_Souls » Sat Mar 19, 2016 5:38 pm

In a 32 team single copy league which would you rather own?
In all likelyhood, Zeke will be gone at 1.1 so the choice at 1.3 would be one of Henry, a QB, or a WR.

The Combine metrics scared me for this class and the evaluations aren't any better. I would think i am higher on Melvin Gordan than most though. I'd take Gordon. I would guess community would go 1.3

I traded Gordon mid season. I'm not convinced about him in SD, they have too many holes to fill to make him matter, and even then he's so hesitant...

I wouldn't hesitate to trade him for the 1.3. Some RB is going to the Cowboys, right? ;)

If Melvin Gordon was a free agent and part of your draft, would you take him with the 1.03 pick? The answer to that question is all of the guidance you need.

I would rather have the 1.03 personally.

I'm starting to warm to the idea of buying Gordon at a reduced price from what he cost a year ago, but for me that price isn't the 1.03.

Even with Elliott/Treadwell out of the conversation, I have to believe that at least one other rookie will be drafted high enough in a favorable enough situation to warrant taking him over Gordon.

I'd pay the 1.05/1.06 for Gordon but not the 1.03

I think he's worth closer to the 1.07/1.08. He should improve because it can't get much worse, but how good can he be behind that awful line?

32 team single copy?? Talent like Gordon is probably hard to come by, I'd do it and hope for the best. The talent is there.

I'd much rather have Treadwell or Doctson (or even Henry depending on where he ends up) than MGIII. Gordon is a 2 down back with plenty of competition

I just got him for Breshad Perriman and feel like it was somewhat of a steal if that gives some reference there. I would take the 1.03 here. I had Gordon ranked at 1.08 last year and probably still hold him about the same in that class
