Trade Alert! Would you do this.

[The Foot]

I need an RB really bad in my keeper. I am in the playoff but only have mathews/oliver and forsett as my rbs. I have sent out a feeler. I suggested Clowney, Mathews and Olicer for Lynch and the guy is willing. Should I do it? Would you do it? Clowney has not looked good plus he plays olb which hurts his value.

 

[SteelersPride]

would u use lynch as your keeper, and i know nothing abotu IDP, can you afford to lose clowney?

 

[The Foot]

Clowny has done nothing he is still not playing. I am just fearful he will become a manimal in the future were as lynch is probably gone from seatlle ater this year and who knows how long he has left. BUT I could really use his services and with him I THINK it gives me a great chance to win it all!

 

[SteelersPride]

well aside from possibly clowney, how many keeps do you use, olver or mathews dont appear keeper material.....so why not do it,

 

[The Foot]

we keep 35 out of 45 players.

 

[SteelersPride]

whoaaa.....well u have jack crap at rb/ but mathews limits......oliver....so screw it, its not liek ur losing rb depth.......or sacrificing rb;s for next year........gamble on clowney not working......and do it

 

[TREFF]

Tough call Footy...I wouldn't, based almost entirely on the rumblings of Lynch possibly retiring at the start of this year. You could get at least five good years off Mathews/Oliver, even without considering Clowney.
The one way I'd do it, is if you were near certain you've got a team that could win your league this year, otherwise your trading a big chunk of future for what might only be 6 weeks

 

[TKOSpikes]

I don't think it's a big chunk of the future. Take Lynch.

I wouldn't let Clowney hold me up on this. He lost all value when he got labeled as a LB IMO. (Has been a FA nearly the entire season in my money league.)

The only hangup I have is Lynch long term. Not much faith from me for future production. But I always try and win NOW in keepers. Id do it, Matthews future definitely involves some PUP lists.

 

[romeo212000]

Clowney is on waivers in my league. I wonder if I should grab him.

 

[broncosmitty]

Is he listed as a linebacker?

 

[romeo212000]

DE, LB

 

[TREFF]

DE, LB

I've got him in my one IDP, only because of the dual position eligibility and the limited bench. Once Bye's are done I plan on cutting him, but that's a redraft, so no worries if he ends up being great later

Thanks guys I think I am going to accept. Live for now thought is crossing my mind. i am curious what everyone thinks on Lynch. I'm gonna post it!
