Austin Ekeler

Postby ElDerAuto52 » Mon Apr 24, 2023 6:16 pm

I want to flip Ekeler for someone considering the possibility that he gets traded or Chargers add an rb (say bijan if he makes it that far). I am worried that they take someone early and do not trade Ekeler so he is stuck there in a timeshare.

Any players to look out for? I was thinking Barkley straight up since a guy in my league put him on the trading block.

team in the signature
1Qb 12 team ppr 2TEP (qbs get 1pt per 10 passing yards)
(1qb, 2rb, 2wr, 1te, 2flex 10bench 3 taxi)
Qb-Mahomes Rodgers
Rb- Walker J Cook Charbonnet Gibson
Wr-JJ London Addison JSN M Williams Dell N Brown
Te-Ferguson Dulcich
Taxi Squad- Trey Palmer Schoonmaker Wicks
2024 picks: 1.09, 1.10, 2.02, 2.06, 2.07, 2.08, 2.09, 3.08, 3.09

Barkley is worth quite a bit more just based on the age difference. You may have to add something to get that done. The problem is I don’t think a second is enough to get it done and a first is too much. Ekeler is unfortunately a declining asset. Hopefully he won you a ship during one of his monster years.

Ekeler has been tough to value the last couple offseasons and this year may be the most tricky based on age. Shopping never hurts and I think Ekeler is very league dependent. I truly have no idea how to value him or what targets could be realistic.

Kick the tires on an Ekeler for Barkley swap and see what that would look like. I'd imagine you'll have a tough time pulling it off straight up but with the draft upon us maybe you can use a 2nd round pick or something to buy the years back. At least worth investigating.

Ekeler is a hold for now though for the reasons other have stated.

If you could get Barkley that would be a good trade, but I really doubt thats going to happen straight up. Like another poster said, wouldn't be surprised if the gap is a 1st.

I'd aim for someone like Dobbins, Javonte, or even pairing him with a first to move up into a range where you could potentially get Gibbs or JSN.

In season you may get more return for him, but you may not...
