Aaron Jones or picks?

Postby Jcedwards » Tue Sep 10, 2019 2:12 pm

I have been in talks with a guy who’s wanting my AJ. We have came to what we think is a good offer, but I’m undecided on whether to trade AJ or not. While I have 3 backs in front of AJ, I do like the depth for a potential championship run.

SEND: Aaron Jones, 21 3rd (if My team doesn’t drop off, it should be late)
RECEIVE: 2021 1st (probably mid), 2020 2nd (probably mid)

Is this a good package, or should I hold onto AJ? He doesn’t currently have a 2020 1st, but is in talks to acquire one. Would you still do this package or try to get that 20 1st (if he makes that trade)

Here’s his team (if it makes any difference):
- Ryan, Carr
- KJ, D Freeman, Carson, R Freeman, Lat Murray, Burkhead, Richard, Dare O
- Robinson, Woods, Landry, Tyrell, John Brown, Sanders, David Moore
- Cook, Hooper, Olsen
- Broncos, Bills
- Zeurlein

I'd rather have Jones than the 2020 1st. The other picks are meaningless.

I would hold Jones instead of move him for a 1st multiple years out. I think the depth and option of Jones (injuries, bye weeks...) is worth more to your build and run.

Depending on where the 2020 1st he gets is projected, I might do that. Not doing the 2021 deal, even though his team doesn't look great and it might end up being pretty early.

It would be his own 2020 1st back, so probably mid. I think he has the roster to at least make it mid.

Even though it seems like I'm set at WR? Having a core of Thomas, OBJ, and Cooper should be good for years to come.

He is hesitant to make the other trade and even if he does, he is trying to push to get the original trade done with the 21 1st. I'd ideally like to get a 20 1st in a package for AJ if I am going to trade him, but he is great depth right now because the RBs behind him are either handcuffs/ unproven at this time.

I want more of a payback and not waiting for 2 years for a first rd pick. Once they play a few easier match ups i'd then look to seell if you get a good return. If not hold him for a playoff push and move him in the off season.

Got another offer from the same team. I would be switching his 2020 2nd out for Devonta Freeman. So it would be Jones for Freeman and 2021 1st. I liked Freeman before the year, but his first 2 games have been rough. Does he turn it around or is he someone to stay away from? If I was to trade Jones, I like the idea of getting a RB in return for depth purposes, but not sure if Freeman is the answer there though.

I'd keep Jones if making a run, Jones >> D Freeman.

Appreciate it. Definitely looking at making a run with my team. I came so close last year, so hopefully this year I'm able to get over the hump.
