I would pass, but I think most people are too high on Calvin. So, take my decline with a grain of salt.

16 teams means you need quanity of good players to win rather than everything invested into a stud.

I'd pass too. As previous poster stated - 16 team league you need the depth, and you're trading 4 younger starters for 2 aging players. Short term I can see this being a solid move... but long term, I think it could be terrible.
Team 1 (QB, 1-3 RBs, 1-3 WR, TE, K, D) PPR
QB - Rodgers, RGIII
RB - Charles, Lacy, Vereen
WR - Antonio Brown, Demaryius, Jeffery,Gordon
TE - Reed, Green
Picks: 8 '15 Firsts

team 2 (QB, 1-3 RBs, 1-3 WR, TE, K, D) PPR
QB - Arod. RGIII
RB - Forte, Gio, Hyde
WR - Dez, AJ, Jeffery, Floyd, Wright, Terrence Williams, Hunter, Hopkins
TE - Eifert, Ertz


Orphan Team:
QB: Foles; Tannehill
RB: Martin, Vereen, Michael, Bryce Brown, Stewart, David Wilson
WR: AJ Green, Cobb, Tavon, Stills
TE: Reed, Green

Nope I actually felt the same way I just wanted to make sure I wasnt making the wrong choice. In a deep league when them bye weeks hit it gets rough...

I would make the trade- I understand the note about 16 team leagues; but you are giving up 4 guys who might produce a total of 400 PPR points this season and Martin for Calvin (who might get close to 400 PPR points himself) and Lynch who will have a better season than Martin.

I am also not a Martin believer. I would need to see your actual roster to give a better answer on this one-but I am leaning towards the Calvin side right now.

your team is fine for a 16 team league, don't give away your future for the uncertainty of Lynch and going all in on a stud like Calvin. Lynch could do something to be suspended at any time and we don't even know where he'll be next year.

I like the scheme change for Rudolph. Hoping this is PPR and that makes Ellington good at your RB2. Sanders is a decent WR2 for you. Your supposed to have some holes in a 16 team league.

I love Calvin, but you have some solid talent waiting on your roster.

Absolutely do not accept. Marshawn only has 1 or maybe 2 years left. Calvin won't be an elite receiver for too many more years
