Am I a contender?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Am I a contender?

Postby OCPunisher » Tue Oct 17, 2017 8:41 am

Hello friends,

Week 6 was particularly unkind to me, as I lost both Aaron Rodgers and Ezekiel Elliott from team 1 below, and promptly lost to the 1st place team despite putting up a respectable 110 points. At 4-2, currently in 3rd place with 4 of 10 teams making the playoffs, I feel like I can hear the window of opportunity closing on my team, and I'm wondering if I should start selling off some pieces now before things get really ugly, or hold steady and make one more playoff run. If I do sell off some pieces, who should I sell, and what should I expect back in return?

I think if you're able to stay in the hunt till Zeke returns, you still have a shot. Miller and Ingram aren't bad options at RB, your WRs are still great, and Ryan is a nice backup with the loss of Rodgers.

Remember you'll get Zeke back by playoff time if he isn't appealing for two more weeks.

I would maybe consider selling a bit of depth like Crabs, riddick, Ellington in conjunction with a starter to get an upgrade at RB if that's a possibility just to help you along. But the fact that you have Morris and DMC hopefully means you aren't taking a huge dropoff at RB production.

I'm holding steady now. I have a feeling the Zeke situation is just heating up, but you have Ingram. Also with Ryan you have a quality back up. Unless a quality offer comes your way, stick it out.
