I would accept this pretty quickly, but I'm not a Sammy believer and Ajayi has been largely underwhelming outside of a couple of huge games.

Kevin White seems like a throw in here. I do like the value even though I dislike kevin

I think it's a fair swap. Both Gordon and Ajayi have long term knee concerns, but the addition of Sammy bridges the gap between to the two players. I don't think White needs to be included in the deal.

I'm accepting also. White as a throw in, and I am as low on Ajayi as anyone. Give me Gordon here.

I would wait until after the draft. Gordon is due to lose some volume and that could happen as soon as the NFL draft, which would tank his value.

I’d accept but I don’t like any pieces involved. I’d be trying to flip MG as I think he carries the most value right now but could easily fall off a cliff this season if his volume goes down.

I think he’s the best piece in the deal. He offers solid value as a ppr back even if his efficiency isn’t there yet as a runner. I imagine San Diego will be addressing their line in the draft which should help him. I don’t think they add a back early as ekeler has proven to be a solid backup

I think if you are focused on the best player possible then you are definitely getting the best player in this deal. Gordon is one of those rare RBs in the league who holds 70+% of the market share out of the backfield. I think the volume makes him extremely valuable.
