Not a fan of trading highly ranked players for a single draft pick, but this may be a great time to cash out on Kamara. Can he do better than his awesome stats from last year? Over 6.0 YPC and 81 catches is a great year, and yet the allure of one of the top RB prospects gives you a player who may have even a higher ceiling... I voted 1.01, but it's obviously tight and wouldn't bat an eye if you stuck with kamara.

Man, the idea of pairing Gurley with Barkley would be too good for me to pass up. I love Kamara, but I'd have to go with Barkley.

I'd try to milk more out of it, using the established-stud-vs-unproven-quantity, but if it looked like he was going to walk away, I would probably buckle.

I prefer Kamara but know Barkley is carrying a higher value right now. I like Barkley a lot but think Kamara is undervalued.

One of the most common comparisons I hear is something along the lines of, "If you like what Kamara does, Barkley does all that and more in a 230lb frame."

Barkley for sure.

I love Kamara but voted Barkley. I believe Barkley has a better chance of being a three down back. I also went Barkley because there's a chance you can flip that pick again before your rookie draft for even more of a return if you so choose.

The two of them are very close in value. I am in the midst of a startup and kamara went at 1.04 and barkley(1.01) went at 1.10. It is just a matter of whether you wanna trade one guy who had a great season for another guy hoping he can repeat what kamara has already done.
