Re: Vereen or Blackmon
Vereen. I'm finding it harder and harder to come out on top when chasing a troubled player's upside. I used to make a nice FFL living on it, but something has changed. The light just doesn't seem to be going on with these guys the last few years.

Re: Vereen or Blackmon
Should be more like Vereen or Blackmon + mid first... This isn't even close.

Re: Vereen or Blackmon
Vereen safer but Blackmon has much more upside. If Blackmon was not a knucklehead the responses would be much different. Just depends on if you are willing to risk Blackmon being suspended again in my opinion.
Re: Vereen or Blackmon
It won't be suspended "again". One more time and he is done. He likely would be banned.
As for pure talent. Blackmon does have a ton of upside but given the risk, you can get him way cheaper than Vereen.

Re: Vereen or Blackmon
Just made the deal for Vereen. I obviously like Blackmon's upside more, but the risk is too great. Took the safer route...

Definitely understand that route
Re: Vereen or Blackmon
In ppr I give the edge to Vereen. The risk with Blackmon drops his stock. Blackmon has higher upside but much lower floor due to off field risk factor.

Re: Vereen or Blackmon
I didn't say Blackmon is cheap. I said you can get him cheaper than trading Vereen for him. A 24 yr old RB that could possibly catch 100 balls next year is worth more than a extremely high upside WR that is only one test away from never touching the field againChandler Bing wrote:Not cheap in my leagues at allebreeze12 wrote:It won't be suspended "again".
