XFlash Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Since he is indefinitely suspended, no moving him to IR to pick up another RB. I'm thinking that after his court date next year after the season, regardless if he wins or reduced, he will be released and be signed by another team. I'm 1-4 and my RB stable are dropping like flies. I spent a 1.1 pick on him. I and would hate to give up on him as a keeper. Anyone else in Dynasty or Keeper leagues holding on too? Or cutting bait?

Finn5033 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 He has a court date tomorrow. From what I read he will be entering a not guilty plea. Should know a little more about his future tomorrow. Its a crap situation I'm glad I don't have to deal with. Fantasy purposes only of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 I cut bait in a dynasty league where I owned him as well as in a redraft league (straight-up dropped him). In the case of the dynasty league, he has a 3-year deal.... and I got Morris (1) and Hilton (4) for him and a throw-in. I had some injuries to RB/WR and needed 2 startable guys. Won this particular league last year and have every opportunity to repeat -- the trade only fortified that. AP will never play for the Vikings again. Where will he go? It was just a mess I felt fine ridding myself of. I think if you're in a rebuild you can certainly take him on... maybe he lands somewhere that he can put up AP-like stats for another 3 seasons. But if you're in win-now mode and can find a buyer, I'd make a deal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazinib1 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I'm dealing with this issue as well and I have him for 3yrs also. He's a hold for now unless I can get something decent in return. He's looking to fast pace his case for a December trial date. If he's found not guilty, then he is extremely relevent for next season. Question is, do I trade him now and wait? Or get burned by a guilty verdict. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelarch86 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 He's never going to play again. IRS is coming after him now too. Guy is done. Dump him to some other fool who is to hard up on stats to realize it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grits and Shins Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I think there are plenty of owners out there that will take a chance on him. If Murray wasn't absolutely in beast mode I would say Jerry Jones would roll those dice ... heck JJ might decided NOT to pay Murray so he can sign AP. Having said that it is very difficult to hold him on an active roster for the mere possibility that he plays again. If it was me whether or not I cut him depends on whether or not I am still competitive and whether or not I need the roster spot to remain competitive. If I believe my chances are slim this year then I hold him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Sadly I have two teams that are out of it already ... I would hold him on either of those teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
