I felt like I stole Jordan Howard this offseason. I have multiple shares of Gaskin and literally just the one of Howard that I got for nothing, but yeah.

I do think that you gotta sell both before the trade deadline. After the season, these guys are just assumed that they’re going to lose their job to a draftee or FA by most of the community and it’s hard (not impossible) to get value for them, especially in sharper leagues. If you hang on to them through the season, I think you have to hope they thread the needle and the team doesn’t bring anybody in.

Miami already flirted with Bell. Consider this your significant other getting a text message from a coworker at 2 AM. Maybe they’re not tagging each other yet, but soon enough they’ll be shagging somebody else.

I'm on board with this, but haven't found anyone valuing him highly in my league. I'll hold for the depth at a position of scarcity this season knowing full well his value could evaporate, rather than offload for a 3rd.

I can't even get a 2nd for him and honestly at this point a contender might rather just hang onto him RoS rather than sell for less than an early-mid 2nd.

Getting a pick straight up might be difficult. I'm using a different approach. I offered Gaskin and a 2nd for Reagor, and the other owner is considering it. With all these RB injuries, I'm looking to cash in by targeting teams with needs in exchange for players who aren't doing anything (yet).

I think the Dolphins coaching staff has done a solid job since taking over last year so I disagree on that point. But I suspect that take is coming from you being a Breida owner.

Would you give a 2nd for David Montgomery? Because I don't see much of a difference between Monty and Gaskin at this point. If Monty is worth a 2nd then Gaskin should be as well.

The Dolphins look like they know what they're doing in terms of coaching. Some of their draft picks have been a little suspect but they are drafting in volume so they should hit a fair few. Realistically, there was no need for the Fins to waste a high pick on a running back this season so they may as well ride the 7th round pick Gaskin and see what he has, then I would expect them to take a guy earlier next season when their line should be better and they will be moving out of full bottom feeding reboot mode and can make the most of that four years of rookie production.

Flores seems to be running his team as a meritocracy, which is refreshing.
