INSANE run of bad luck, please help.

Postby sct » Tue Oct 20, 2020 12:30 pm

The hits just keep coming. Lost Barkley, traded him for Miles Sanders, lost MT, lost Kittle briefly, lost Ekeler, lost Dalvin, lost Sanders, lost Jonnu when starting him at flex because of all the other losses....depsite all this I was up 14 yesterday until the Drake 16 point play. Yay. Went in to the year with a hall of fame team that had owners wanting to quit the league and am sitting at a nice 2-4. I'm still 3rd in total points and half the money goes to total points. Getting MT back, but I have to start Minshew, Boston Scott, Justin Jackson this week.

Would you give Lamar and DJM for Kyler and Godwin?

Would you give Ekeler and JJ for Drake and Edmonds?

Would you give Ekeler for RoJo?

You have a nice build and have run into some tough luck. I would hold. All you need to do is make the playoffs and then your team could easily come together by then and go on a run. No need to make moves here in my opinion, hold.

I certainly believe......Last year I lost Barkley, Cook, Godwin, limped in as the 8 seed (barely!) and yet still hogged superbowl and total points....this is looking like a possible repeat of that, but even worse luck.

You don't even like Kyler and Godwin for Lamar and DJM?

I mean I prefer kyler over jackson and Godwin over DJM so I’d do that trade easily. The only other one I’d consider is ekeler for a RoJo but I’m not high on either rb.

Would you give Lamar and DJM for Kyler and Godwin?
-I would absolutely be happy to pull this off. Kyler=Lamar and Godwin>Moore

Would you give Ekeler and JJ for Drake and Edmonds?
-I want no part of Drake right now, personally, and I think you can get more for Ekeler

Would you give Ekeler for RoJo?
-This is a toss-up, I can see making that move if you believe RoJo continues to be THE guy in the TB backfield

Lamar and Kyler very close, and DJM and Godwin very close - so it comes down to your personal preference, if you like the other side then take it. Other two trades are definite no's for me.

I'd make the first deal easily. I wouldn't make the other 2. Ekeler is an RB1 in an ascending offense when healthy.

Ekeler news of "later rather than sooner" change anybody's mind?

The first deal makes some sense but otherwise I pass. It always sucks when you feel stacked and get picked apart by injuries but sometimes the best action is inaction.

Would you do DJM for Rojo considering I have MT, Lockett, and McLaurin? I'm hurting bad at RB due to injuries (I know, most are).

Bad luck happens and it SUCKS, but you have some options. I'm not a big LJax fan, I just don't think he is a great passer so I'd easily make the deal for Kyler. The other deals I like Ekeler more than Drake, big problem is Ek's coach today said he will be out longer than expected. I'd actually try and go for RoJo here, he's finally playing well and Brady will keep pushing him.

If you really must, I’d lean giving away Ekeler over Moore. Young WR will produce longer than RB who is consistently knicked up. Either way, there is no guarantee Jones keeps that job. I’d want a more sure target to give away either.

What about Ekeler and Justin Jackson for Conner and Snell?

I like RoJo, but not at the cost of either DJM or Ekeler. The first trade is a win/win to me, so I would make that deal.
