2QB - Cam Newton Value

Postby Servo » Mon Sep 25, 2017 6:20 am

We've all seen it and I honestly don't know if it's what the future holds for him but Cam has been terrible all season.

Factor in losing Olsen and now Benjameh and it could get worse.

In a 2QB league, Non-PPR, 4Pts TD what do you think Cam is worth? 2 years ago you could have argued Cam was worth 3 1sts probably but where do you think we stand today?

He's still worth at least a 1st. Not sure if he's just not fully healthy, but he's looked pretty bad. I was never the biggest Cam fan, but at least he used to get enough rushing yards/TDs to put up QB1 numbers.

Not much...

Now there were quite a few of us who screamed to anyone who would listen that 2015 was the outlier, but his fanboys insisted that 2016 was "just a down year." The reality is he is an average QB who gets beaten around and has little value when he can't run the ball effectively. He is an 18-20 passing TD QB...that's what Hoyer will do this year at about a quarter the price.

He was a sell after 2015, and even after 2016 people were still buying...I think the market is drying up quickly.

With Olsen out a majority of the season and KBenj potentially out for the season his receiving corp is hurt big time. I would say to move him, but his value is at rock bottom now, I'd have to hold.

So my thing is, I am actively looking to sell Rivers and the guy with Cam approached me about a trade..........Sadly, Rivers crapping the bed now has this guy on the ropes about trading for him (thankfully a lot of QBs stunk yesterday, Carr/Winston/Ryan/etc).

I've loved Rivers and he's been a rock solid foundation fantasy QB for years (wish you could say the same about him/LAC in real life) but I'm not contending in this league and need to capture his value while I can.

I already have 2 2018 1sts but I'd really prefer not to get rid of them so I'd be looking to try and bundle Rivers+ for Cam. I've got guys like Witten/Cobb/Decker who could end up being league winners this year.

If you can do a Rivers/Cam swap (maybe a piece, as you noted, being added) and you're not competing, then I'd do that in a heartbeat.
