I don't like it, it didn't help you. You only start 2 RB at most and up to 4 WR. All you have that I would feel comfortable with at WR now is Dez, and I'm not really sure I feel comfortable with as my #1 right now.

I like the trade from a value perspective. Now I'd be shopping him for a WR or two.

As for value, he got it, but since he didn't say he did it to move him, I'm assuming he did it for depth. Of course we all know what "assume" means!

I guess i see the value of the trade as about even. I'm not sure i would have done it though given your team and my not so high regard for Blount.

Sure you didn't need Blount for your starting lineup, but like the others said from a value stand point this is a great trade. Jackson and Sanders have done very little.
Good Trade.

I like it. You had nothing for a backup RB and Blount gives you that. While Dez would make me very nervous as my #1, you weren't getting a #1 with those picks. You have Mike Thomas and Steve Smith with Dez who are both better options as starters than Sanders. This was a solid trade, imo.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

He only has to start 1 RB, so he did have a backup - MJD or Charles depending on your opinion of the two. It was a solid trade, but I'd still look to move an RB for some WR help.

But there is also a flex RB/WR spot and based on the lack of depth at WR he is better served with Blount on the roster for bye weeks in the flex than anyone at WR.

Your next move is to trade MJD to the first team that loses its starting RB to injury...hope its not me!

I like it for you. The 1.7 seems pretty easy to walk away from for Blount (esp since he looks like a 20-25 touch rb) and the rest is window dressing. I might be sending Bjax to the waiver wire soon.
