Bell and 3rd for lindsay and 2nd?

Postby bainer3 » Thu Oct 15, 2020 4:38 am

Team 1 in sig.

What do you guys Think? Bell is like a lottery ticket right now. But Lindsay has gordon dealing with a DUI, and having that 2nd added on is nice.

I'm leaning towards taking the deal and running.

Lindsay and the 2nd for me. No telling where Bell lands and if he improves.

Do you think it changes anything with him coming out and saying he's choosing between the chiefs, bills, and dolphins?

I'm not sure what to think of those landing spots, he'd be in an immediate time share in all 3 spots. Dolphins sound great, but gaskins has been playing well. Chiefs he would be 1 injury away from being a top 5 rb, and the bills seem like the worst of all 3, unless he takes command of that role.

So I just pulled the trigger to get Bell and Lindsay and a 2nd giving up Ekeler. I posted here and everyone said to hold Ekeler. I gambled anyway. My leaguemates immediately slammed the other person in the trade saying:

“He can’t go to a worse team... Lindsay is a RB2 now, and you got a 2nd for no particular reason lol”

The more I think about it, the better I am with it. There is literally no worse place Bell could go, every possible location is a step up and between chiefs, bills, and dolphins; any of that is pure gold. He’s back into the RB1 conversation.

The other thing to consider is Lindsay, he was clearly the better of the two backs in preseason. He got hurt and Gordon went bananas on two terrible teams. Now Lindsay will have a chance to steal his starting job back with a healthy Lock at canter. My only concern is that turf toe is a nightmare to recover from.

I’m not sure this helps any, but Lindsay is in clear RB2 and Bell is back in the RB1 conversation... with a HUGE level of uncertainty tho

This seems like a snap accept to me.
Lindsay > Bell
2nd > 3rd

What am I missing??

Hell, the 2nd might actually be the best piece in the deal, depending on where it projects.
Both are 12-team 1QB PPR dynasties

Bell RB1 is a monster stretch. I wouldn't want Lindsay or Bell as anything more than a RB3 at best.

I used the search for threads containing "Ekeler" and found this thread.

Do people still think 2nd > Lindsay > Bell > 3rd? I would've had Bell > 2nd >= Lindsay > 3rd before Bell signed with anyone, and especially so now that he's with the Chiefs. I am high on Bell and low on CEH though, for what that's worth.
