Got offered Lynch for Freeman. Take it?

[Carpe Diem]

A start up dynasty league and the guy offered Lynch for Freeman straight up. Do I take it? I'm sitting at 0-3 right now.

QB: Bradford
RB: L. Miller, Gurley, Yeldon, Freeman, Dion Lewis
WR: Dez, Julio, Nelson, Cooks, Watkins, A-Rob, Funchess, T-Williams
TE: Rudolph
0.5 ppr

[chalorpas]

Yes.

[Ghosted]

Yes, even if you don't get back into it before Dez comes back, you'll be able to flip him for more. He'll get healthy.

[AlPal&Ange]

Yes a Rb named Coleman was listed as RB1 before he got hurt. Cash in on Freeman's one game.

[Thomas Something]

Get Lynch but make sure you pick up Rawls off waivers.

[maxhyde]

Yes.

[pocylpse]

Ummmm....take it and run.

[Whatevs6]

Ummmm....take it and run.

As fast as you can

[Jason]

Uh...

[FantasyFreak]

Yikes. Hope you didn't do it.

[WhatWouldDitkaDo]

Not a chance, and I'm in the camp that believes Coleman will be very involved once healthy. Freeman > Lynch at this point, especially since you're 0-3 and likely not competing this year.

[ninotoreS]

Freeman side wins. Not to put too fine a point on it.

Seems to me Lynch is a retirement-risk every offseason going forward. Nevermind Seattle's O-line problems, nevermind the possibility Rawls might have played his way into a committee situation (it would make sense, so as to help preserve Lynch at this point).


edit: oh lol this is an old thread

yikes indeed

True, but I do think there were reports that Coleman was named the starter on their "unofficial?" depth chart.

This looks like an easy decision now, as Lynch has more name value than real value and the opposite is true for Freeman.
However, it's a looong season

In a narrow sense Coleman was named the starter for the first game {and maybe the 2nd as well - not sure about that} but only because he recovered from his hamstring issues before Freeman and they were being cautious with him. Prior to that Freeman was the 1A starter to Coleman's 1B, so injuries caused a slight deviation from the original plan and fortunately for the Freeman faithful {I am one of them} Coleman got dinged again and Freeman got his chance from which he has literally run away with the starting gig.
