Take a Rd 1 for Kelvin Benjamin?

Postby bobandrews » Sun Oct 15, 2017 10:04 am

Throwing in the towel goes against my nature but at 1-5 and with my thin roster I'm conceding 2017.

With 22 man rosters and 16 teams talent is hard to come by.

I received an offer for KBenjamin for a #1 and Cameron Meredith. I have my own #1 so this would be a second one. The guy making the offer is 5-1 in our 16 team league so it's likely going to be 1.13 or worse.

I'm usually pretty decisive but like a big breaking curve this one has me locked up.

I'm leaning to saying 'no' as I'd likely use the pick on a receiver anyway and they are such a crapshoot.

Advise and ridicule all considered equally.

I’d take it, but I’d try to get a different throw-in instead of Meredith. This could be your last chance to get a 1st for Binge.
Both are 12-team 1QB PPR dynasties

KB is easily worth more than that pick.

Especially in a 16-team league. He's finally having his breakout. He should wind up a very nice WR2 with some off weeks. I would grab that offer if I was you.

Benji is worth more than a late 1st. Look for an upgrade over Meridith or another pick on top of the first.

You should be able to get an earlier pick than that.
