(Rebuilding team)

I own the first two picks in the upcoming draft, and plan to snag two RB's. My WR corps is a little spotty, and I have a chance to acquire AJ Brown. Would you pull the trigger on this trade?

Receive: AJ Brown, 2.12
Give: Miles Sanders, 1.12

1QB league, 12-team
Picks: 2021 1.01, 1.02, 1.09, 1.12, 2.02, 2.09
Start: 1QB, 1RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1Flex

Key pieces:
QB: Jones/Garoppolo/Love
RB: Sanders/Hunt/Edmonds/Singletary
WR: Sutton/Moore/Watkins/MVS
TE: Goedert/Gesicki

Thanks for any advice!

I easily take brown and the first. I’d take brown over sanders even up.

Brown>>>>>>>>>Sanders
1.12>>>>>>>>2.12

Easy Brown+1.12

Thanks for the responses! I edited my post for clarity (the combo is Brown/2.12 and Sanders/1.12). I wrote it correctly in one spot, but not the other...late night Does that change anything for you guys?

No. I still want AJB

I'd choose Brown+2.12

Brown+ for me. He is an elite young wr which are tough to come by.

Brown for me still. He is a top 5 dynasty WR for me right now.

I'd do it but I'd also take Chase with one of your first two picks. Part of it is I'm not in love with either RB and Chase is a monster, but also your lineup settings are similar to mine (1 RB, max 2). You can start four WR if needed - having AJB, DJM, and Chase sets you up nicely for a loooong time.

Even with sanders missing more games than brown (3 to 2) and the Eagles being the worst offense we’ve seen this season since the 07 lions as far as turnovers and lack of consistency, sanders only has 30 less fantasy points than brown in my league on the season. I think that is a positive testament of sanders if anything. He’s made big plays and still be effective when given the opportunity. No reason to believe his production doesn’t shoot up if the o line and QB play is even just mediocre next year. Not saying it’s a must to pick sanders here but in some situations I believe he and the 1.12 could be the correct choice. Need a RB to emerge and fill a starter spot next year? I’d take that swing.

To be clear, I was wanting to just defend sanders a little bit here. Feel he is getting slammed and questioned too heavily this year. Brown is an elite long term asset without a doubt. I’d have no problem with someone wanting brown in this deal. Just think sanders value is less than it could/should be.

Do it! I would not hesitate to put my 1.02 instead of 1.12 in that package.
