Darkhorse1251 Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 With Aaron Hernandez coming back soon, should I look to trade Gronk since I have Owen Daniels on my bench? It's not so much that I'm panicking due to his measly 2 points on Sunday, it's that with Hernandez coming back I see his targets being affected. Should I deal him for help during my upcoming bye weeks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I wouldn't deal Gronk just because he's not the only TE on his team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delusions of grandeur Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 This is definitely an advice forum question, because there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of whether you deal someone... It's entirely dependent on situation (i.e., what you can get for him, whether you can get an upgrade that exceeds a downgrade if any, what your biggest needs are, etc.) But that aside, I wouldn't call dealing him the week after he lays a total goose egg as the right "sell high" time. That would have been a week ago. At this point you just have to find a believer who has a need for him... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought ... since when is 'selling high" on a player the week after he essentially lays a goose egg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikesVikes Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) um...wasn't it with Hernandez in the lineup in 2-TE sets that Gronk performed pretty well? I'm not offering advice unless this is in the advice forum... BUT why in the F do you want to trade away a solid TE start? Do you really think that his production is over for this season? Do you want to not have a decent player on your roster? Worst case scenario is that he actually has had his last good game this year and if that was the case, why would anyone else want him more than you? Because they know better than you is the only reason. Should you trade him for Aaron Rodgers? Yes do that. Should you trade him for Donovan McNabb? Maybe you can get a player that the another guy wants to give up on. Edited October 3, 2011 by MikesVikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdub! Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) First of all, Gronk was targeted multiple times in the red zone yesterday. Second, he's still a MONSTER red zone target even with Hernandez in the picture. Gronk still has a shot at being the #1 TE this year in fantasy... I say wait him out. He has almost unlimited upside compared to most of the scrubs (so far) in this so-called good year for fantasy TEs. Edited October 4, 2011 by jdub!

untateve Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 When Hernandez comes back, I'll be starting him and Gronk together...just as I did before Hernandez was injured. (right along with Welker) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawks21 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 It's possible some owner is going to overpay for him at this point. I don't personally thinks he keeps up this pace, so I would try to add him with another solid player and see if a team with a subpar TE is willing to give you a stud for the package, if you have another decent TE you can go to or acquire.

jdub! Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Here's hoping for #1 TE honors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
