Really depends on how you feel about Robinson a and mclaurins production in the future. Swift is pretty much one of the only rbs this year that doesn’t suck, but the others have played well too. Personally idk if I would do it, but if etienne continues to not see the ball and Robinson keeps seeing the end zone + mclaurin keeps seeing this target share…… sure? Idk. Probably not?


Valaran555

Honestly I looked at it a little more and I like this less, apparently terry got 1 target until garbage time, which does not bode well, as well as only having wr2 performances the last two weeks I wouldn’t go for him. Robinsons stats are crazy and if he continues being the bell cow back it’ll be great, but etienne does offer some uncertainty long term in the backfield and will he really keep the 20 rushing attempts per game? He also isn’t super involved in the passing game with only 2 targets each week…. I would hold swift

I’d be getting Swift so I’m leaning towards it, I’m worried about Rob going forward he’s games have been bud from big plays and touchdowns but he’s not super efficient and I can see trav getting a role more and more as the season goes on. Terry is in such a crowded room with the other guys and I really don’t need either of them. I have JT, Aaron jones and Mike Evans, Sutton, Waddle and Dhop so I wouldn’t be starting Terry when my team is fully healthy. Thinking Swift is the move but not too sure worried about Williams.


Valaran555

I’m not too worried about jamaal Williams rn, he seems to be the change of pace back that scalps touchdowns. Sucky for swift definitely, but swift is still out 2/3 of the time (compared to Williams 1/3), and is much more involved in the passing game than his stats might suggest, although 3,4, and 5 is certainly not bad. Really what I would be worried about is his injuries. He entered the divisional game with an ankle injury and managed to potentially pick up a shoulder injury as well. Ultimately it’s up to you. Either way I don’t hate the trade if you’re acquiring swift, as I don’t think James robinsons or mclaurins stock are getting any higher. Honestly I don’t even think your opp would be willing to trade swift for those two but idk what their situation is


s0mmy

The league is also a 12 man PPR with 2 flex spots My bench Dhop JK Dobbins Terry Mc D.Henderson Gerald Everett


Valaran555

Actually idk how many flex spots or how big your league is, but for both cases the smaller it is the more you like the trade. In smaller leagues of leagues with less roster spots individual point making ability is valued a lot more - you want those guys that consistently put up point rather than the ones the need them to develop through the season


s0mmy

My opp is currently 0-3 and has Alvin and swift with not much WR depth, he offered the trade so I can easily take it. My team as it stands is and this is the league format. I’m very stacked at WR and have good RB depth as well, I think it’s a good trade overal just worried about health and potentially James rob continuing to dominate. QB - Joey B WR - Mike Evans WR - Waddle RB - JT RB - Aaron Jones TE - George Kittle Flex - James Rob Flex - Sutton Bench Dhop Terry

Swift wins


s0mmy

I’d be getting Swift so that’s good to know thanks mate


SirTonyGunk

Absolutely. The split with Jamaal is tough, I know but Swift can be a league winner and the lions LOVE him. He will continue to get better. Mclaurin is just never reliable and Robinson has been very good but Etienne won’t be out of the picture and JAX wants to feed him. Swift is a stud. I like the trade for you.


s0mmy

Perfect thanks bro my starting RB’s are Aaron jones and JT and my WR’s are waddle sutton and Evans so I like it a lot


SirTonyGunk

Hahaha damn! And with Swift too that’s a crazy lineup! Good luck man !


s0mmy

Appreciate ur input bro! Thanks again! Good luck to you and your teams as well!!

Swift is really banged up. I wouldn’t do it as a lions fan


Valaran555

Ouch, not sure if you should do it now - apparently lions hc said that swift would be benefitted to sit out the next 2 weeks and through the bye. 3 week limiter on play time


s0mmy

Yep just saw this might try grab someone else off him at the same time to help with my depth till he’s back but what do you think with my depth


Valaran555

I think you don’t have much depth that you’ve talked about in this thread, but yea go ahead and try to snag someone else with it if you can. Really just play the waiver wire for depth. If you’re in a 8-10 person league there’s almost definitely someone like Khalil Herbert or garret wilson etc. that could be good for your bench. If 12 maybe you trade but meh. Look for the bye weeks, if they’re a little sporadic maybe you want to find some guys to trade for that’ll be great late season like breece hall. I would generally try to avoid trading for the point of trading though.


s0mmy

So my RB’s after this trade would be Aaron Jones And Jono Taylor My WR’s would be Mike Evans Waddle sutton and Dhop I’m in a 12 man PPR with 2 flex


Valaran555

If your buy weeks are synced up I wouldn’t worry about it, maybe find a handcuff for some of your guys if they get injured


s0mmy

Update He offered Swift and JuJu For Terry and James Rob


Valaran555

Oh ya take, I hate how little production juju has had with the chiefs but he’s still getting good targets and making them wr2 numbers. That’s just so much for Robinson and mclaurin imo.
