Trade Blackmon or Gordon?

Postby MrBalloonHands » Thu Oct 31, 2013 5:57 am

Hey guys,

I'm trying to grab an extra pick in 2014 and Christine Michael. I'm loaded at WR (with Julio coming back next year) so I think now might be the time to offer Blackmon or Gordon. What do you think of the trade I'm thinking of offering:

Blackmon or Gordon for Christine Michael and a 2014 1st (should be high as the other team is currently 2-6).

He is also pretty weak at WR outside of AJ Green and Stevie Johnson.

Team in sig.

Thoughts?
QB - Andrew Luck, Andy Dalton
RB - Lamar Miller, Tevin Coleman, Leonard Fournette, Joe Mixon, Christian McCaffery, Joe Williams, Matt Jones, Mike Davis
WR - Michael Thomas, DeVante Parker, Tyrell Williams, Quincy Enunwa, Josh Doctson, Cooper Kupp, Josh Reynolds, Leonte Carroo, Rashard Higgins, Cameron Meredith, Adam Thielen, Krishawn Hogan, Charone Peake
TE - Martellus Bennett, Evan Engram, Clive Walford, Virgil Green
K - Greg Zuerlein

I would be all right with relinquishing either of those WRs for a high 1st and Michael. It makes sense for both owners.

Makes sense, good move.

Also would move Blackmon before Gordon. As the other team, I wouldn't make the trade and I am high on Gordon but no harm in offering.

For an unproven RB??? No thanks, I would rather keep them both as both are off the field risks so you would hope one of the 2 is always eligible. Plus, I think they hold more value than that

I don't see why you would ever give up Blackmon or Gordon for Micheal and a 2014 1st. This isn't even remotely close for me, if I'm the blackmon or gordon owner that's an instant decline
