ivbaseball06 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 (edited) Standard 10 person KEEPER league, No PPR. Start 1 TE, 2 RB, 2 WR, and 1 RB/WR. TE is not allowed in the FLEX. I completely struck out on trading for Cook in week 1. I hit gold by drafting Gordon very late. My other TE option is Fleener. My other WR options are Jordy Nelson and Demaryius Thomas, so losing Gordon doesn't hurt me at WR. Gordon is currently starting in my flex spot over guys like MJD and Fred Jackson (my starting RBs are Forte and DeAngelo). What do you guys think? Is Gronk above and beyond Fleener/Cook enough to warrant losing Gordon? Edited October 3, 2013 by ivbaseball06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whyme23 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 do it, gronk will be a monster when he returns and you'll never get him then. Cook was a 1 week wonder so to me its Gordon for Gronk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def. Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Depends on your keeper system IMO. If you can keep Gordon for a low round pick next year I wouldn't make the trade (unless Gronk is also a low round keeper.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ_OMalley Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 ^^ agreed. Gronk will be a beast, but you aren't as safe at WR as you think. I doubt Nelson stays healthy for the rest of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivbaseball06 Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 We can keep up to 3 guys. Each pick we keep makes us lose that round. So if we keep 2, we lose the first 2 rounds, etc. We've escalated the trade now and it's Gordon and future 5th/9th round picks for Gronk, CJ2K, and his future 10th. I'm really digging this one, unless I'm missing something. It would leave my lineup as: QB: Stafford RB: Forte, CJ2K, DeAngelo, F. Jackson, MJD WR: D. Thomas, J. Nelson TE: Gronk, Fleener Forte, CJ2K, D. Thomas, and Gronk are all potential keepers. Yes, it does leave me thin at WR. But with my depth at RB I will always have a full FLEX and only need 2 solid WRs. If Thomas or Nelson went down I can always find something on the wire. For example, I could pick up someone like DeAndre Hopkins TODAY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
