Urgent: RB trade before Championship game

Postby smoppelpoppel » Wed Dec 19, 2018 3:27 pm

Hi all,

I made the final, playing a strong opponent. Think its a 50/50 game. Unfortunately, I have Fournette as my RB2 with virtually no depth behind. After last weekend, I don't trust the Jags anymore. Who knows, maybe they shut LF down. I'd be stuck with Riddick or Mike Davies. A possible solution on the table: A trade, my LF for Sony Michel. With the championship game in mind, I'd hope that Michel performs better vs. the Bills than LF vs. Miami (if he plays at all). With a long term view, I think both are almost even in terms of potential.

What do you guys think, should I pull of this trade?

Thanks and cheers

I know it’s hard to trust the Jags and LF after last week but he apparently got in a full practice and to me that seems like a pretty good sign

If its ppr and penny gets ruled out, mike Davis may be a sneaky play anyway.

Otherwise I'd lean LF.

Pretty even, I like Michel more than LF though. He’s on a better team, in a better situation, and I think the patriots destroy the bills and Michel gets a lot of carries. I also like Michel better long term.

I'd rather have Michel over LF long term but I'd rather play LF against the dolphins that have been consistently gashed by RB's all season

OP dont make your trade based on trying to guess 1 week between similarly projected RB. Gotta remember this is dynasty. I also like Sony more

Why? It's dynasty. There should never be a trade deadline if you ask me. Allowing trades during playoffs allows for great value for rebuilders and allowes people making a push for the championship to make trades to help them win it all.

Imagine if Team 1 was making a push for the title but had a major injury at RB and was now lacking a RB2 for the championship game while there is a team in complete rebuild that so happens to have Damien Williams and makes a trade with Team 1 to sell Williams for a late 1st or a late 2nd and a young player. This trade would never happen under any other circumstances other than to go for it all in week 16. Team 1 takes a hit long term but has a chance to win it all and pay for his league for years to come and the rebuild team gets to enjoy a solid rookie for a backup RB.

I'd rather have Michel, but I'm not sure he's the guy I'd want to rely on if I'm competing for a championship this week. I'd still make the trade, but wouldn't necessarily feel that much more comfortable starting him over Fournette.

I'd rather have LF over Sony for the future. LF is an elite RB on the field. Sony has equal injury concerns and has proven less

Not really, he's torn his ACL in college and had to do a minor knee scope this season, that's about it. LF dealt with recurring ankle injuries throughout college and his rookie season and then had a soft tissue hamstring issue all season this year. LF had a great year his rookie season on the back of bellcow usage but so far has proven that he can't handle that type of usage over a full season. Michel while not as high of a prospect was still a 1st round pick and so far has gotten RB1 type carry count, only thing holding him back is the passing game but he was widely regarded as the best pass catching prospect coming into the draft so I expect him to begin making an impact in that aspect of the game next year when he understand pass pro better.

I disagree. I'm aware of all of their respective injury history and would say that Michel is an equal injury risk with less upside.
