Mixon - Sanders swap

Postby Doodootime » Sun May 31, 2020 7:52 am

I’m looking at giving Sanders and getting Mixon in return. I make regular playoff appearances but have yet to make it to the last game. How do you feel about mixon and sanders over my next 2-3 year window?

Mixon for me. He has the much better chance at being a true workhorse in my opinion. Volume is so important for RBs in fantasy.

Mixon is slightly, slightly > Sanders to me. He's a workhorse and that offense absolutely has nowhere to go but up. He's a super talent and his breakout is coming.

I have been high on both. Pretty close for me, so I would take the younger one. If Philly used a descent draft pick on a RB, this would not be close. But since I think they will get close to the same amount of touches, I will take Sanders. At the same time though... trading...if I had mixon and know the majority perception of these two, I would want something else coming back to me.

It’s close. Mixon has more curb appeal to me. Interested in seeing a poll on this.

Not really a fan of lateral moves like this. I guess Mixon is technically considered slightly more valuable right now, but it feels negligible enough that a straight across trade like this doesn’t really make sense to me. I am really high on both players so this feels like a “pick em” in my eyes.

Sanders. The Eagles have done everything to indicate he will going to be a major contributor to the offense going forward for the past year. Not even sure why some people still argue rbbc and we wont get enough touches to be elite.

Mixon is a legit Bell Cow. Like me some Sanders, but still hasn't shown to be a good runner between the tackles. Mixon should get more touches and he should produce more with a better QB. Hold out is the the potential downside, but Mixon is the more talented back with a line to more touches.

Agreed. As I stated earlier, the real concern is him holding out. Mixon is bigger, better and in a more prominent role in the system. If he holds out, it might be a hiccup, but the new CBA suggests he has little leverage.

I guess I'd rather have Mixon, but I don't see how this significantly changes your outlook. You probably should be shopping Juju or DJM for a RB if thats what you need to get over the hump. Is this a start 3 RB league? Not sure cause you currently have Hunt highlighted over both of those WRs.

Mixon by a good amount for me.

I’d need an early first to go from Mixon to Sanders.

Give me Sanders. When players are absolutely horrendous for half of a season and potentially ruin fantasy teams then they leave a sour taste in my mouth.
