Dealing Cousins

[Underachiever]

I don't put much stock into a Qb in a 1 QB league such as this, but Ill ask the question anyway.

12 team PPR

Cousins or Chris Thompson

My new Qb would be either Palmer or McCown (which is why I am concerned)

My other RBs are Hyde/Blount/Ellington/Riddick (which is why I want a RB)

Is the QB drop off worth the RB Upgrade?

I think I'd roll with Cousins for now. You can upgrade at RB later.

You can replace Cousins with Thompson and RB with QB, and this would still be true. I would think QBs are more easily replaceable in a 1QB league than RBs in most leagues. With that said, I think this is a fair deal and would go with whichever position you think would benefit/hurt more from this.

I get what you're saying, but my assessment is that Cousins finishes the season as a QB1 whereas Thompson does not continue his current pace of insane YAC.

I can see that. I'm not the biggest Thompson believer and not sure he keeps it up either. That's why I say go with team need, but agreed that Cousins probably will have more long-term value.

Plus Thompson is due for an injury based on past history.

Cousins is worth much more than Thompson
