Alvin Kamara + for LeSean McCoy

Postby AugieFootball50 » Wed Sep 27, 2017 1:51 pm

McCoy owner has decided to rebuild.... for team 1 in signature.

How much more would you want on as a McCoy owner? Owner has pretty much stated he is only interested in acquiring picks and young prospects (but don't we all!). I'd love to keep Kamara, but right now I'm running with Lynch/Gillislee/Murray as my RBs and I'll need two RB1s to compete with the other teams in the league this year.

I don't think I'd add much. If contending I'd definitely want McCoy, but after this year I bet it's Kamara. I'd try strt up personally.

A 2nd round pick should bridge the gap. I wouldn't give anything more.

Personally, I'd stay put with Kamara. I think if you make the deal you'll likely be a top contender, but I bet you're close to that now anyway. I can't see your league so it's hard to say for sure. My main issue is that McCoy is getting up there in age, and with Murray, lynch, and McCoy.... That's an geriatric backfield next year and beyond. Lol. I wouldn't fault you for trading for McCoy in general, but in your specific situation I think it ages your team considerably. If you win this year it may be worth it to you, though.

So let me get this straight.... you're saying older backs have less value as they progress from season to season? Damn.... I knew I was doing something wrong. ;)

But in all seriousness.... do people see Kamara as the future back of NO and an every week RB2? I don't want to get CJ Prosise'd again.

I'd do a 2nd to make it happen. McCoy is going to give top production for a couple more years and, unlike WRs, rookie RBs can provide value right away so you can draft his replacement in the next couple years. 2nd rounders are a shot in the dark and Kamara is much more likely to be a Theo Riddick than a Shady McCoy IMO.
