Due to your RB core, it looks like you could use the long term youth which is Swift. Jones is elite but getting older and while you have a solid WR core, I think your RBs will hold you back a bit from being a true contender. I would take the youth and value here as Jones is unlikely to carry great value much longer on age alone, fair or not.

I only make this move if you think you can then flip Edmonds for something better for a rebuild or if you think you are a legit contender (top 3 in league).

Interesting, by just about any website you base power rankings off of. My team as of right now is top 4. But I don’t think it’s winning a chip unless some special bounces go my way. Looking at you Chase! So you would pass if not top 3?

I'm hung up on the Edmonds piece. If you don't think you are a legit championship contender I'd rather hold Dillon and Jones. Or more specifically I want a different piece instead of Edmonds.

Would like to hear more thoughts or votes. Really torn on this one and both people so far have made opposing statements.

This is tough but I slightly, slightly lean Swift side. I've really tried hard to acquire Swift this off-season but I cannot. If I had an Aaron Jones to sell for Swift I would pull the trigger. Talented pass catching RBs can break fantasy football in formats that award receptions, even ones on really bad teams. I'm taking the chance on Swift's ceiling at this price and getting lots of years back in the process.

I love Swift but this is a bad trade. Jones is going to be a high end starter now and Dillon will later. Swift is a great player on a bad team that has so many questions he may not be a Lion by the time they are good enough for him to shine. Edmonds is a marginal piece. If you wanna move move Jones solo for a 1st to anyone and use that for a hot rookie RB while keeping Dillon. Hard pass IMO.

I think Jamaal Williams outscores Swift this year. I also wouldn't be surprised if James Conner outscores Edmonds.

Its a tough one. I do like Jones in the near future, 1-2 years, but swift is a better long term asset than Jones and Dillon. I'm the oppose from the above. I think if I'm a far and away competitor I keep Jones. Otherwise I'm prob taking swift and flipping edmonds asap.

I'm neither a Dillon believer or Edmonds.
