Austin for Blackmon

[AK49]

Team2 in sig

Austin seems to be consistently ranked in the top 15
I just don't trust him. Injured often. Suspect that Dez will take over as the #1 in Dal
I may just have rookie fever,but I'm intrigued by Blackmon and the $12 salary
I have plenty of Cap room ($51)
Thinking of offering the following

Austin $30 for Blackmon $12 & L Miller $19

Miller is over priced, but that's what happens in an auction sometimes
If he hits and takes over for Bush in a year with that strong O-line he could be well worth it
If not then I could dump/launder him

Hold Austin or buy Blackmon?

Just for full disclosure- no contract length but

RECEIVING - Top WR/TE - 20% increase / Average of #2 through #5 after their increases, whichever is greater
#2 - #5 WR/TE - $5 / 15% increase, whichever is greater
#6 - #10 WR- $3 / 10% increase, whichever is greater

For me, that's a coin flip. I think it depends on how much of a risk taker you are.

Pairing AJ, Julio and Blackmon for a total of $6 more than Austin costs alone sounds fantastic IF Blackmon produces. If not, you traded away a 27 year old WR1 for a sack of magic "rookie" beans.

What would be the penalty for dumping Miller's monster contract if he flops?

[AK49]

Yeah that's my thinking as well
In this league there's no penalty for droping players/contracts
