Melvin Gordon value

[Jason3123]

Not sure if that was towards me on the injuries. I was implying that Gordon could "tweak his hammy" to prevent the Chargers from using him up this year if they don't plan to re-sign him.

Not directed towards you personally. Just noticed I've seen comments referencing injury to every Melvin Gordon news blurb or report. Same concern with Bell, etc.. Way too much hypothetical injury group think out there, and it takes over so many people like a virus. It's football..it's a violent sport. There is literally injury concern with every single player on every single play. Melvin has had 3 straight dominant fantasy seasons. Focus on that and the situation with Ekeler..not a hypothetical injury. Why is there no concern about Ekeler lasting all season? He has never shown evidence to support a large workload over the course of a season.

Same group think applied to Keenan Allen, Will Fuller, Le'Veon, Luck last off-season, and many others... Yes sometimes these guys get hurt but when they're not hurt, they are sure-fire fantasy producers.

This specific poster in implying something quite different to others saying Gordon is injury prone. He's saying Gordon would suddenly have suspect injuries (much like Jalen Ramsey this week). In other words tell the trainers he was hurt in order to save himself for free agency. Apparently AB did it just before he got released from the Raiders.

With Gordon obviously testing the market is now a good time to get him? It seems like the guy has no value where I am seeing him as a potential trade steal?

[IR1]

Inquired about him in my league, I’m interested in buying as very solid depth, but owner still values him where he was a couple years ago.

What was the ask? I’m wanting to sell him if possible but don’t want to undersell or ask too high

I send Mixon and Joey Bosa for Gordon, De’Vondre Vampbell and Justin Houston

That’s ridiculous!

What was your offer? Curious in case I start fielding Gordon offers.

[RB6]

No.

[Cameron Giles]

If you believe in the talent, then sure. RBs are so situation dependent though. So, if he goes somewhere where the scheme is questionable and the offensive line is bad, then it won't matter.

In my TE premium (2ppr) league I am stacked at TE but only had Zeke and Carson at RB... people hold RBs with vice grips and I have been unsuccessful adding help there...

So I recently traded:

2020 1.7, 2021 1st, 2021 3rd
for
Melvin Gordon, Deion Jones, Cameron Jordan

I offered the trade but then got a little worried and unsure how I feel about it. I would expect the 2021 1st to be mid to low, won the league in 2018 and was 2nd highest scoring team in 2019 despite 6th place finish.

I think it is high for his current situation but I feel like I cannot buy a similar RB for anything reasonable.

Everyone is down on Gordon and I'm not really sure why. Yes he only averaged 3.8 ypg last year but L.As o-line is terrible. He had 9 TDs and 42 catches in 12 games. In my league he averaged 16 ppg which was good for #13 rb overall. There is uncertainty with him for sure but he is a talented back capa8of producing top 5 numbers. The year before last he was #6 overall RB in my ppr league. I think hes a buy low if you can get him cheap. Hes a good RB2 with upside and should still have a few good years left

[dynastyninja]

I think he's worth buying at a discount (which is probably doable). I feel like he's going to be signed by a team who is willing to feature him.

No official offer, but I’m heavy at wr and he’s pretty old- Edelman,DJax, etc. so offered some combination of NKeal Harry, Corey Davis, JJAW or 2.03

Good value if the idp if heavy. Jones would be late 1st/early 2nd and Jordan would be mid 2nd in my league
