EDIT: OBJ+ for Barkley+ (Time to Sell OBJ????)

I have OBJ and as you can see below my RBs are stacked, but Barkley is a once in a lifetime talent supposedly. And I personally believe that in non-ppr leagues the guy with the best RBs wins the league year in and year out. So I was thinking of offering the below trade:

Send: OBJ, Baldwin, Mixon, and 2.08
Receive: 1.01, MT, AJG

I know I am probably asking for way too much, but he has told me that Barkley is available as long as OBJ is included and I want to start high if I'm offering the #1 dynasty asset (ok maybe #2). Should I send this offer or leave my team be?

And what are everyone's thoughts on OBJ? He is back on the field and healthy, but would now be a good time to sell him? I have been worried that Engram last year and Barkley this year means that OBJ might not be seeing as many targets as he is used to (if any in the red zone). Any comments are appreciated. Thanks.

I don't think you're asking for too much. OBJ is worth a butt load, I would want a haul for him too. I like it for you. Gurley/Zeke/Barkley should win you many championships and having Thomas and Green gives you great depth at WR.

Like the offer for you. Will need to see what he counters with.

Yea that's great for you, guessing it won't get accepted but you never know.

Probably doesn't get accepted. Also I don't think OBJ is a number 2 asset in standard, (but I haven't played a standard league in 5 years so what do I know).

If you can pull this off I like it though.

Good starting point, but doubt it's accepted? OBJ and Saquon are closer in value than a lot of people think, sadly because of the hype around Barkley! Mixon won't fetch you MT and AJG. Expect a counter, but you've not sent anything that should be considered insulting in any way. I like the play for Saquon myself and think you should pursue this.

No chance your offer gets accepted. If you take out AJ Green then I think it's still good value for you.

He said no to my original offer, so I added Baldwin and the 2.08 to my side because it sounded like we were really far off but I told him I wanted a guy like Kelvin Benjamin thrown in.....assuming he accepts (based on me not getting anyone else thrown in to the deal), would any of you be comfortable with this offer?

I think you're giving up too much. I also don't like the idea of moving OBJ for Barkley for your team because you already have two stud RBs and a 3rd one on the making. If you lose OBJ, you're hurting your team more than you're helping it.

I honestly wouldn't want to include Mixon in that offer

He said "Barkley is equal to OBJ in my opinion" soooo it doesn't look like we will be making a deal. I think Barkley is going to be awesome, but I don't see him as being worth that much (for now at least but maybe after the season starts). So I just told him that it looks like we are too far off and left it at that.

Exactly what I figured. The hype on Barkley is so high, you'll find many have this valuation on him today. In fairness, it's not that far off really when you look at where these 2 are being selected in startups on average!

Yea.. I wouldn't do that at all. I think Barkley will be a beast, but we know OBJ is going to be a beast. Too much unknown for straight up.

I'm pretty sure Mixon is good enough to be your 3rd RB without having to give up OBJ
