OT 2018-2019 Rip City Two FANTASY FOOTBALL

...don't ever re-neg on anything, ever again! You are so hard-up for trade action on a player that has done absolutely nothing. If you had money to bet, I'd offer a side bet that Ryan Grant finishes with more points than Flash Nobody by the end of this season

 

Enough of the stupid BS. If he does nothing, fine. Grant ain't shit. Gordon has immense upside. That's like saying you'd rather have Vince Carter than Anfernee Simons. Get outta here.

 

Not quite the best analogy in a one year league. Now if it was a keeper league that is a different story.

 

You know what I'm talking about.

It's a comparison for upside. Simons has long term upside, Goes on has this-year upside. A guy with a floor of 0 and ceiling of 10 is more valuable than a guy with a floor and ceiling of 1.

 

Basically just this one.

 

@BonesJones the issue I’m having when looking at it is. Gordon’s more talented than the guys I’d be willing to give up, but on the other side the guys I’d be willing to give up have at least played and will probably continue to get targets. I’m a little concerned about trading for Gordon and having him get suspended again.

You’ve got an interesting player there it’s gonna be hard to get someone to offer equal talent.

 

It's an upside play. How much do toy wanna gamble for a potential top 5 WR?

 

Wow, the hype train is strong with this one!

 

My opinions align with those of fantasy experts.

 

So he's your WR5 but he's going to possibly be a top 5 WR in the whole league?

 

I understand I’m just saying it’s hard in my opinion to come up with a trade that both sides would be happy with for Gordon. There’s a reason why NE only had to give up a 5th rounder.

 

And if he doesn't play at least 10 of the 14 games remaining for NE then the Browns have to give NE a 7th rounder.

 

@BonesJones you better just keep Gordon if he is so good. A. Brown didn't show up at work today, so you might need to find a replacement for him this week anyway.

When you mentioned that you put Gordon on the trade block, I immediately only thought of giving up a bench player. He is not worth trading a starter for, just my non-expert fantasy player opinion.

 

yeah I am in no way trying to argue with Bones here, I think we all know Gordon’s really good, but theres a ton of risk there too. In order to give bones somewhat equalish talent would mean giving up a talented player that doesnt have as much risk. I was looking at WR’s I could offer (Corey Davis and Dede Westbrook) both have had pretty averageish numbers for a WR this year and thats probably who they are, will consistantly get 10-17ish points. I would think about doing Cooper Kupp but he’s the third option for the rams after Cooks and Robert woods. he’s consistant too. Gordon if playing is better than all of them though, the problem is well we havent actually seen Gordon stay on the field for a long time now and im just not sure Id give up a consistant performer for a giant question mark. i recognize he’s on par talent wise with Cooks and maybe even OBJ but theres no way Id give up on them for Gordon.
What bones has said is true for the most part its just a really hard deal at least for me someone else maybe in the go big or go home mode and Id understand it.

 

So Grant for Gordon and he backed out? I wanted to pick up Grant last week, but decided to go with Kittle (I dropped Breida and of course he went off).

 

I'm potentially looking for a RB. Looks like Ajayi may be out this weekend and Freeman still looks to be out for me as well. I could trade one of the injured guys if you are interested, or most likely, one of my WR's. I'm just looking for a 1 for 1 trade, but if you want to offer a bigger package im open to trade talks.

 

when I get a chance I’ll take a look see if anything sparks my interest.

 

Yes, he was the 5th WR I drafted, but he could potentially be my WR2.

It's funny when y'all play dumb.

 

I'm glad someone gets it!

 

It would be dumb to not see whay offers are at there. This is a pretty stingy league when it comes to trades though. I should see if Perez wants him, he's a Pats fan.
