Trading for Akers

Postby bclark » Tue Jul 20, 2021 1:35 pm

Team 2 in sig. Akers owner is looking to sell. What would be a good offer to send to him? He’s going to want a RB back because he has been looking for more in the past and now has no starting RBs.

He has
QB: Fields, Roethlisberger, Ryan
RB: Akers, Brown, Kelley, McKinnon
WR: Allen, Cephus, Cooper, Diggs, Diontae, Lazard, E Moore, Parker, People’s-Jones, Shenault
TE: Ebron, Engram, Hockenson, Jonnu

Two options I thought of are
Barkley for Akers and Diggs
dobbins/sermon/etienne for Akers and Shenault
Are these too much for Akers?
1 - 12 Team PPR 1QB
QB: Watson, Trubisky
RB: Hall, Etienne , Spears, Abanikanda, Dobbins, Pierce, Tucker
WR: Jefferson, Wilson, Smith, Rice, Smith-Njigba, Pickens, Downs, Mims, Jeudy, Gipson
TE: LaPorta, Pitts, Kmet, Allen
2024: 1.07, 1.10, 2.07, 3.07, 4.07

2 - 12 Team PPR 1QB
QB: Murray, Stick
RB: Gibbs, JT, Walker, Tucker, Strong, Evans
WR: Lamb, Olave, Waddle, JSN, Hutchinson, Campbell, Claypool, Gipson, Iosavis
TE: Pitts, Tremble, Granson
2024: 1.02, 1.04, 1.05, 1.10, 3.02

3 - 12 Team PPR 1QB
QB: Stroud, Young, Howell
RB: Hall, Robinson, Cook, Kelley
WR: Chase, London, Collins, Smith-Njigba, Mims, Wicks, Bateman, Jeudy, Iosavis, Moore, Washington
TE: Pitts
2024: 1.02, 1.03, 2.07, 3.02, 4.02

4 - 12 Team PPR 1QB
QB: Rodgers
RB: Hall, Robinson, Charbonnet,
WR: Jefferson, Higgins, Addison, Smith-Njigba, Dotson, Downs, Williams, Robinson, Wilson, Iosavis
TE: Pitts
2024: 1.01, 1.09, 1.12, 2.03, 2.08, 3.01, 3.06

Barkley for Akers and Diggs seems fairly decent. I think i'd rahter the diggs side tbh.

Dobbins for Akers & Shenault would probably work but i'd much rather dobbins.

Sermon for akers is a no go for me (Sermon does not have nearly enough value for this).
Etienne for akers + shenault also may work

I'm always a fan of taking the guess work out and simply asking the owner what it will take. This will allow you to gauge the value versus risk long term.

Was offered Akers for Etienne. Think that’s too steep though. What should I ask for on top of Akers? Or just keep Etienne?

As sad as it is to say, I would not take on Akers as the best piece coming back if moving ETN, maybe Akers and a 1st
