Cook+ for Mixon+

Postby DynastyDabbler » Thu Feb 13, 2020 7:49 pm

Dalvin+McLaurin+2021 3rd
For
Mixon+2020 3rd+2021 2nd
Personally, I like Mixon's upside a little more over Cook's. Cook feels like he could get injured on any play and Mattison is begging for opportunity (and I think he'll get more In 2020). I think McLaurin is easily worth a 2nd but a first is probably more accurate. League mate won't part with a 1st and countered with the offer above. It's lopsided but I'm tempted because I really want Mixon.

I like Mixon a lot. That being said, this deal would not be even remotely interesting for me. No way I'd consider adding McLaurin on top of Cook to get Mixon.

Dalvin side, easily. Not even close. He's the more talented player (although he does have some injury concerns), and he's in a system that features him. McLaurin is worth a first. Not close for me. Mixon side needs to add guy like McLaurin IMO, not the Dalvin side.

Team getting Cook/McLaurin wins this in a landslide. Cook/Mixon are essentially a wash, but McLaurin is a WR2 with WR1 upside. To say he's only worth a 2nd is comical. For context, I am talking to the Mixon owner in my league, and we're considering Mixon for McLaurin + 1.08.

As an owner of all three players involved, no way would I add McLaurin to Cook to acquire Mixon unless the Mixon side added an early-mid 2020 first.

Cook side so easily. McLaurin should be on the other side.

McLaurin makes all the difference in this trade. Regardless of who someone likes more between Cook and Mixon, those two are basically a wash. But McLaurin is worth much more than those picks.

Even though I'm not big on McLaurin, I probably have to go with Cook side here. Mixon is maybe a hair better than Cook given the lack of injuries, but the picks don't really mean much to me, and we have already seen McLaurin play in the NFL. Will the Skins get some more offensive weapons? Probably, but I'd still take McLaurin over the dart throws.
