Buy Ekeler? Decent position to make a push

Postby johnnymozart » Tue Nov 14, 2023 3:07 pm

Trade would be:

Ekeler
for
T. Spears
J. Ferguson
2025 early 2nd

Would you buy Ekeler if you think you have a shot this season? Biggest chunk to give back is Spears, who I really like. I don't really have a spot for Ferguson (Andrews, McBride always gonna be ahead of him). 2025 2nd is from the worst team in the league so likely 2.1 or 2.2 in a 12 teamer.
My team/Picks (14 Teamer- .5PPR) Start 1 QB, 2-3 RB, 2-3 WR, 1-2 TE
QB Lamar Jackson, Russ Wilson, Mills
RB A Gibson, Aaron Jones, Damien Harris, Penny IR, D.Pierce, Haskins
WR ARobinson, KAllen, Mike Evans, Sutton, Amon-Ra, TBoyd, GDavis, Dotson, Pierce
TE Mark Andrews, Goedert, LThomas
K Tucker
2023- No Picks
2024- 2, 2

Rebuild Sad Orphan 12 team .5PPR -- Start 1QB, 2-4 WR, 2-4 RB, 1-3 TE

QB. Tua, DJones (IR)
RB Bijan (R), Gibbs (R), J. Conner, TSpears (R), Demercado, J Mason, Z. White
WR Amon-Ra St Brown, Nico Collins, J. Reed (R), R. Shaheed, C.Tillman (R), Osborn, Terrace M, CSamuel, Pierce, Ross
TE Andrews, Ferguson, McBride, Ertz (IR)
DEF- Patriots, Vikings
2024 None
2025 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3

All in, I would make the deal. Ekeler is a big piece to try and push for a title now and likely next year. I get the hope for Spears but he is still an unknown long term. As long as Ekeler is healthy, he puts up really solid numbers which is not an easy thing to come by at RB anymore.

I like this deal for both sides. Contender gets best shot at '23 production. Non-contender is getting several good assets for next season and beyond. This is how deals should work.
