KJ for Aaron Jones and Miller

[Skelly11]

Been offered Jones and Lamar Miller for KJ. Second team in signature. Would you do it?

[Gator Sens]

I would hold Johnson for long term value.

I’m holding KJ all day. Miller is not relevant after 2019 imo, and Aaron Jones isn’t the answer in GB to me.

The trade gives you a better starting lineup. How competitive do you feel? If you don’t feel like a strong contender I might hold. However Jones could ha e more value than KJ alone by season’s end

[ninotoreS]

I like A. Jones, but the KJ side for me, and it's not a hard decision.

[RB6]

KJ all day.

[FuzzySignificance]

I really like the move with these deep lineup settings. You've got some aging centerpieces and look to be set up well to contend now. Make the trade, make the run and just be sure to stay keenly aware of where your team stands so that you can capitalize on moving those aging assets later in the year if your team is under performing.

i have jones above kj so ill take a free lamar miller without competition

[Goddard]

If you needed the depth, maybe...but I think you're better off holding onto KJ for now. Pretty fair though.

[WhatWouldDitkaDo]

I'm probably in the minority, but I'd take Jones over Kerryon straight up, so getting Miller for free is a slam dunk accept.

KJ vs Jones

- both had analytically strong seasons last year
- both have durability question marks
- both will be sharing touches to some extent
- KJ has significant draft capital invested in him, Jones does not
- KJ is much more likely to catch 60+ passes, and OP is half-ppr
- the Bevell hire is promising for KJ

Jones is good, KJ is good, but there are distinct, tiebreaking elements favoring KJ over Jones.

To prefer Jones requires the belief that he's a clearly superior talent to KJ. That's a very subjective opinion, because you'll have a tough time supporting it analytically.

Not necessarily. Even if Jones is the lead back in a committee and unlikely to see >70% of the touches, it could still be more volume than Kerryon in a more run-heavy scheme. I think many are underestimating how involved Anderson and others could be with Patricia wanted to emulate NE's RBBC approach. While Jones's injury history is concerning, the tie breaker for me is more faith in Rodgers + LaFleur over Stafford + Patricia.

[jcc6fd]

I think people are mostly excited about the prospect of Jones getting more time as the featured back (even if there's a committee element) after last year's debacle of using Adams plus injuries.

[thomasscheeks]

Kerryon by quite a bit.

Aaron Jones isn't the long term answer. Sorry guys..
