Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
I've been looking for RB help and the guy that has Kamara said he would trade me him for Mahomes. Based on my roster and league details below should I make that trade?
My only concern is if I deal Mahomes I will be down to just 1 current starting QB in Wentz who has a history of injuries. Thoughts?
1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex, K and D – 12 team ½ pt PPR league – 24 man roster and 4 round rookie draft
I have 5 picks in the upcoming 2019 rookie draft (1.12, 2.12, 3.10, 3.12, and 4.12)
My roster is:.
QB: Mahomes, Wentz, Bridgewater
RB: Hunt, Carson, Drake, Ballage, Samuels, Thompson, McGuire, Bernard, Adams
WR: Julio, Juju, Evans, Cooper, Sutton, Kirk, Coutee
TE: Njoku, Thomas, Eifert
K: Bailey, McManus
D: Jacksonville, Dallas

Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
In a 1 QB this is an easy accept. Nice deal. Kamara is a top 5 dynasty back.

Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
Definitely do it. Makes you a much stronger team.
I agree that Wentz injuries is a risk though. Work on a quality backup QB via trade.

Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
You can get a Rivers/Big Ben type for cheap to supplement Wentz. I love Mahommes and think people undervalue his fantasy value, but would easily take Kamara for him straight up in a 1 QB league

Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
The Mahomes fever is to real in 1 QB leagues I had a league of vets draft a couple months ago (maybe not some apparently) where Mahomes went 1.1 craziness

Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
How are people "undervaluing" Mahomes' fantasy value? He is the practically unanimous #1 overall QB by quite a large margin. If anything he's being over valued, because he almost certainly just had the best fantasy season he will ever have in his career. His production numbers wise can only go down from here.
Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
1. Disagree that his production can only go down. He won the MVP award in essentially his rookie season. You don't think he can't improve?bjd5211 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 5:43 pmHow are people "undervaluing" Mahomes' fantasy value? He is the practically unanimous #1 overall QB by quite a large margin.

2. My comment was not in reference to his ranking amongst dynasty QBs where he is rightfully the QB1, but in reference to his relative fantasy value to other positions. He'll play at an elite level longer than any RB/WR/TE in the league right now and he does give a positional advantage at a position most would have historically said doesn't have gaps in production (i.e. draft a QB late methodology). I advocated for trading for Kamara, which I think is obvious here, but was pointing out that this isn't as simple as trading a QB1 for an RB1 in the traditional sense.

Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
1 QB that's a snap accept. You've got Wentz. Get Kamara. Grab a QB like Flacco if they are on the WW for your bye week, but don't sweat that. Kamara by a mile in 1 QB.
"You're a creep. You got caught.." -Dan Patrick
Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
No I don't think he can improve on 5,000 yards and 50 TDs.
He is rightfully the #1 QB and I expect him to be elite going forward, but he's going to be "regular elite" 4,500 yards and 30-35 TDs. He's not going to have a top 3 statistical season ever every year of his career.
So yes while he will improve as a player, he will not improve his stat line, which is all that matters for us in the fantasy world.

Re: Trade Mahomes for Kamara?
I think we would agree that he won't have 5000 yards and 50 TD every year. I think it's silly to guarantee he will never top it considering he did it at 23. Not sure why anyone would want to argue that.bjd5211 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 15, 2019 6:34 pm No I don't think he can improve on 5,000 yards and 50 TDs.

I did just look up his startup ADP; 25 overall, which is higher than I expected, but I think that's indicative of fair value for him given that he outscored the QB2 in 4pt TD leagues by 5PPG. He outscored the average of the top 12 QBs by 6 point and the top 24 QBs by 8.5 PPG. For contrast he outscored the 2017 QB1 by 5 PPG as well. That's a bigger advantage than we're used to in 1QB leagues, which was my bigger point. Appears the community has appropriately adjusted though.
