Do you have to drop anyone to get him? What's the overall budget? 200? Is there any comparables out there right now, or will other comparable players become available?

If this team is competitive I wouldn’t go high. You’ll need your FAAB for running backs.

But if it’s a young or rebuilding team I’d be willing to bid a significant amount. Maybe 50%? You could get outbid there though. He was a 2nd selection with elite measurables.

Was planning on dropping Peoples-Jones. 200 is the overall budget but I have $178 left till season end. The wire is dry. Don't know if comparable players will be avail I can read the future. :o Its for Team 1 in my sig.

Haha I know, ya never know who will get dropped. If he is the best player I'd bid about 30 or 40 depending on how teams normally spend. He's definitely a better prospect than a few WR on your bench

I would bid about $40 and if you miss out, it's not the end of the world.

He's gonna cost at least 50%. He was just being drafted in the 2nd or 3rd rounds of rookie drafts. If you really want him, I'd go at least $100. Not often do you get decent shots like this.

If it's a blind bid, I'd go at least $90. If open bidding, he might go higher, depending on the budget of the people you're bidding against.

Even if you plunk down $150, you'd still have enough left for minor bye week and injury covers.

Good luck!
