Joebirds55 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 My team is below...10 team ppr. I'm currently sitting in first with the most points scored. Looking ahead to some playoff matchups and it Arizona takes on seattle week 16. I'd be giving up olsen and ellington for bell and witten. Luck murray ellington antonio brown Michael floyd gronk current flex is sanu Dawson pats d Sankey spiller vereen colston calvin johnson olsen I'm hesitant only because of olsen being such a great insurance policy for gronk. Witten has been garbage. Also not in love with two guys from the same squad, but brown is obviously a beast and bell has been awesome. Also reluctant because why mess with what's not broken as I'm sitting at the top. Before I'm asked, my first three picks were calvin murray brown. I traded sproles to the ellington owner early on. Was able to package delanie walker and bradshaw for gronk a few weeks back as well. Thanks for the advice. I'll hang up and listen...will help in return.

Joebirds55 Posted October 15, 2014 Author Share Posted October 15, 2014 Bumping this up. 12 noon deadline according to the other owner. Not sure why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwolf68 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 LBell is a great back, but Ellington is on the better team. I typically like RBs from better teams. And I like Olsen better than Whitten. You are winning the league...I would stand pat and wait a few weeks before making changes based on playoff matchups that you perceive as difficult here in week 6.

One thing I was thinking was that if I did do this deal was that it could provide additional insurance to murray. My thinking is that if murray were to go down, Dallas may open up the passing attack giving witten more looks. Just an idea. And since I'm starting gronk olsen is somewhat expendable. Firmly on the fence with this deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eskimo brothers Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I wouldnt do this, i would hold on to ellington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willswear3 Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Sad that I'm too late. Olsen is ahead of Witten for sure, but Bell is so much farther ahead of Ellington that I would have taken it for sure. You would have 2 top 10 running backs for the rest of the year, and the TE drop-off isn't that big. EDIT: Just saw you are starting Gronk. ABSOLUTELY would have taken this then. The TE switch is pretty much useless, so all that's happening in this trade is an upgrade at RB. Imagine your team come playoff time with Bell instead of Ellington and Calvin at Flex. Sounds pretty good to me. Hope he let you have a little more time, because I'd take this in a heartbeat.
