David Johnson vs Kamara + 1.10

[Chandler Bing]

I'd take Kamara and the 1.10.

Me too

Is no one worried about the change at QB affecting how defenses play the Cards? I have no issues with DJ's skill set, so the deal is close, a preference call on team makeup. But the Cards may face 8 men in the box consistently to force however is QB to beat them over allowing it to be DJ (think Gurley 2016).

I made almost this exact same trade at the deadline in-season. Gave Kamara, 1.10, Darkwa and a 4th for DJ. I wasn't expecting Kamara to keep up his pace through the end of the season but I still feel good about the deal.

I’m not. I think DJ is one of those backs that is defense-proof from a fantasy perspective due to his large volume in the passing game. Like Bell and Gurley. If defenses sell out to stop the run I expect his receiving stats will be even higher (80 receptions in 2016). I think Kamara falls into that group too.

I am firmly on the DJ side

[topher]

I would take the DJ side. He injured his wrist, not a knee, so his value is still the same elite value it has always been and he still has a good number of years left.

I’m more confident DJ can come back and be DJ than I am kamara repeats the next 3 years

[prinefan]

Give me Kamara and the pick. I'd take the top 5 RB (in an RBBC, no less) who's 5 years younger. On an offense that knows how to use him vs the star RB getting a question mark at HC and QB. Kamara every day.

[Bulletproof]

An update on this. I couldn't pull the trigger on the David Johnson deal, but ended moving Kamara + 2.01 for Michael Thomas
