Context? Are you a serious contender this year? Drake's closing schedule is great.

I hate the phrase "snap accept" and that's a snap accept to me. Drake is now only a factor because one guy got traded and another one got hurt.

If you're in rebuild, that's a no brainer accept.

I’m not high on any of the players involved but feel like you could get something more valuable for Drake from a contender. All these guys were on the waiver wire not that long ago and may be again soon.

All these guys are in roughly the same category: talented enough to be something, but it's anyone's guess if they will. Depending on who you have to drop, take the trade and double your chances

A starting RB is worth way more in a 16-team league. You can probably sell Drake for more in the offseason if you're not getting any bites. He's got a few more games to shine as the workhorse in MIA.

Really surprised people are this high on Carson and especially Hollins. I’m not big on Drake either but seems like he should have solid value to a contender or someone thin at RB. This just doesn’t seem like much of a return to me. Certainly not snap accept or selling high.

I'd make that trade all day long. Drake has no long term trade value.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

Would you please elaborate? I'd argue that Drake is a decent runner and pass-catching back with the opportunity to remain the incumbent starter in MIA in 2018. Carson is a dart throw with no guarantees of playing time with Davis and McKissic playing fairly well, and Hollins is the no. 4 receiving option in PHI behind Ertz, Jeffery, and Agholor. I'd much rather hold onto Drake over those guys.
