Conner for WR1

Postby Sinatra's Liver » Tue Jul 02, 2019 9:43 am

I want a WR1 and have four really good RBs. Should I trade Conner for either AB or Cooper?

I know that AB will probably be better this year, but how long will he be a WR1?

I'd aim a little higher than those two personally, even if I have to add a little bit to get someone else. Not sold on them for the future.

I like the idea of moving Conner for a WR but I agree, Brown or Cooper would not be the route I take. Conner had a monster year last year, cash in.

I don't necessarily mind going after Cooper, but I'd want something added to his side.

Aiming higher would be either Adams or JJSS. (Hopkins, OBJ and Thomas owners not trading.) The Adams and JJSS owner (yes, he has both plus Evans) doesn't want Conner, but might be interested in Chubb. But yes, I'd like to sell Conner and cash in. IMO, he's not a lock to be a RB1 in three years.

I think Cooper is a fine target. Shoot for something to go with him.

Connor will not land any of the elite tier WRs. Cooper seems about right value-wise but I have little interest in Cooper (or AB) so I'd rather hold Connor.

In a league where I have CMC, DJohnson, Conner, Bell, Drake....I'm having a hard time moving any of them for whatever reason.

It's a 48 team league with 4 copies of each player. I've offered Conner for Cooper to several owners with no bites. I haven't offered him for an old guy like Brown.

I've also offered Leveon for Julio and no bites there either.

Better than WR5 and only 13 points away from being WR1 (after missing a game)?
...I don't think he will be.

Maybe try for Mike Evans?

I traded Conner for Amari Cooper and a 2020 2nd. I don't feel bad about it. I think Conner only has the job for 1 more season and I really like how Cooper produced with the Cowboys. I think getting a truly elite WR for Conner is a pipe dream. I came close to getting Mike Evans for Conner but that didn't materialize. Anyone that has a top 5 WR is going to want a top 5 RB which Conner is not.

Conner was the main piece I traded to get OBJ. I would rather hold Conner than trade him for Amari Cooper. I would move him for AB if I thought that put me over the top for a title.

For what it’s worth even though AB is a helluva WR I see him as a decking asset at 31 and not having Big Ben throwing to him in that Steelers absence spells regression to some extent.
