Hopkins or Evans and McKinnon?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Yeah I traded my RBs for picks. Had Hyde, Drake (own everywhere) and Ayayi and wanted to strip down and rebuild.
I actually accepted this deal by accident this morning but other owner was fair enough to let me get out of it.

Based on your team I get the desire. This time last year Evans was + Nuk. I think they are close enough that getting McKinnon makes it worthwhile.

How things have changed in one year...at this time last year Evans had Hopkins current value and visa versa. Still, give me Hopkins here.

It changed because OZ is so bad that Hopkins couldn't put up WR1 numbers, even though he accomplished that with the Hoyers and TJ Yates of the world.

Nuk was top 4 before OZ, and is my 1.01 today. I like Evans too but McKinnon isn't enough for me to move Nuk.
All my teams suck. And I'm not in your league.

I LOVE Evans, am not as reactionary as several others to bump him down from being an elite top 5 WR. Having said all that, Nuk is my dynasty WR1 and I gotta go with him here.

It’s “kinda” close for me but Hopkins is my 1.01 in startups and even though Evans is a stud too, McKinnon isn’t enough to make up the difference, imo.

Somewhat close, but still Hopkins. I'm not as high on McKinnon as others though.

People are reacting to the fact he's had 1 top 5 finish in 4 years. It's a pretty fair assessment.

Normally, I’d take the Hopkins side, but given your RBs, I’m not sure you have assets to acquire a better RB than McKinnon ... I’m assuming Beckham and other starters are off limits.
