David Johnson - Code Red Panic? - Traded to Houston

[lic217]

No one will give you anything for him so you might as well keep him. Due to that keep him or you get some dog bleep prospect that has a 10% chance of ever producing anything worth value. You might as well keep a guy who has the potential to be a running back three or flex worst case scenario and maybe even a running back two if they don’t bring in much competition.

Absolutely. If you are competing, you can do a lot worse at flex/bye week/injury insurance.

Same dilemma. Keeping him for all the reasons mentioned, but mainly, "What am I gonna get for him?"

Thinking he is a good buy for 2021.

Really good player. Skill set is way higher than value. Injury concern but when he plays he is solid.

Contenders should be buying in hopes of winning a title

I bought him mid season, paid Carson got David Johnson and 2021 2nd sent back, rode him to a championship! Lol

Hold as a contender, sell if you're not. He can still put up goodflex numbers.

[Root Down]

Sold him in a league where I am rebuilding (Team 2) for the 2.10. Just felt like a mid to late 2nd was the best I could do for the 2021 draft and I don’t need an almost done RB on a rebuild.

I’ve kept him on Team 3 with the hop3 he can be an RB2/FLEX in 21. That’s likely a drive him into the ground situation.

I basically split the difference based on need. See how it goes!

2.10 seems like a panic move on any team. For that return why not just trade in season to a team in need. I get the injury could be to him but 2.10 is a pretty low probability hit pick.

[Cameron Giles]

He finished the season really strong. 100 total yards and/or a TD in his last 3 games.

But, he turns 30 next season, the Texans could be in for a rebuild if they trade Watson, and they can save over $6M by cutting Johnson. So, a starting role is far from a guarantee. I don't think Johnson is the difference between a team being a contender or not, so I think he's a sell for whatever you can get at this point. If not, you're likely riding him into the sunset.

[joeya2001]

He also did finish with 1000+ total yards, and 8 total TD's I don't think hes washed, but he could linger around for another season or 2.

Pre draft their are still a few teams that can use a Vet RB.

That was also 12 games played.

Nailed it.

[jetsfan5757]

He finished pretty well once they canned Bill O'Brien.

If Watson is traded though, that offense could go down in a HURRY.

I'm holding for now as he's good RB depth in a pinch. Worth more than I can get back...
