TheFalcoholic Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) I was offered Keenan Allen & TJ Yeldon for Juju Smith-Schuster & James Conner. Apparently this guy is a Steelers fan. My current roster... QB: Cousins, Mahomes RB: Elliot, Mixon, Collins, Conner, Coleman WR: Julio, M. Thomas, Tyreek, JuJu, Enunwa TE: Reed, Kittle I have a pretty good team right now in a 10 team league but always looking to improve. As you can see, I went after RBs & WR, weak at QB & TE. I would do JuJu for Allen, straight up. However, Conner is currently my RB2 with Mixon hurt & Collins not doing much. I am not convinced Le’Veon Bell will return anytime soon. Would you make this trade? I would be upgrading WR. It would also give me the opportunity to start Coleman at RB2 this week and pull him off the bench. Then it’d be Tyreek or Allen at FLEX. Advice please, thanks in advance. Update: Leaning towards declining. JuJu went off today, Keenan did nothing & Conner got me 14 solid points. Any final thoughts before I hit decline?

Montana is da Man Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Yes I would with Coleman starting the next 2 or 3 weeks. Julio, Thomas, hill and Keenan That's sick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweise Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Quote I wouldn't do it. You don't need Allen your WR lineup is already awesome and Conner could be the second coming. What if Bell holds out longer Conner balls out and Bell gets traded to SF. Mixon hurt, Collins underperforming and Coleman only a lock to start for a few weeks. TJ Yeldon also a short term answer unless that hammy is worse than they're letting on for LF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Bears Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 No way. Bell ain't coming back before week 11 and that's if he ain't traded by then. You need Conner and yes he is the real deal. Plus you are already solid at wr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Standard Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 This deal does nothing for you. Keep the Steelers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like you're not comfortable making the trade, so don't make it. You absolutely cannot decline based off 1 game by Keenan Allen. Look at the last few years and you'll see he is a top 5 or 6 WR in fantasy especially if it's PPR. It's Keenan Allen > JuJu As for Conner, I realize he caught a TD pass yesterday, but all signs point to last week being a bit of a fluke. His rushing was awful and if you take away his TD his day was crap. Any game where the Steeler fall behind early, he's going to struggle. And lets not forget, for all the yards Ben had and all the points they scored, Antonio Brown did nothing. Most games, he'll be move involved which means Conner catches the ball less. Lastly, I think you should update your original post and say you are not weak at QB. Mahomes has been sensational so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty stoked. Thanks for the advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasandmnm Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 What in the world are you going to do with 4 (5 if you count JuJu) WR1's?? I definitely would have kept Conner. I mean you aren't hurting at RB without him but I feel you were much stronger over all with him than with a 5th WR1. With all the studs on your team I cannot imagine how bad some of the other teams in your league have to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to target a TE & move a WR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMom Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Considering your current WR and RB's you don't need Keenan Allen nor TJ Yeldon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You definitely have the personnel to go out and get either of those guys because there have to be a bunch of teams in your league that have manure for WRs. I am jealous of your team for sure... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
