The Forte owner in my league has been hit hard with injuries. Currently he has Forte, Mike James, and Ellington.

Thinking about offering Demarco Murray and Le'Veon Bell for Forte in a 2 for 1?

Even? Giving too much? Not enough?

Current RBs are:
McCoy
Moreno
Murray
Bell
Vereen

Standard scoring, 2 RBs and 1 FLEX

Bonus: If I made the trade, that would free up a roster spot to pick up Andre Brown who is available.

What would you do?

Do it.... Do it now

Eta - he probably won't take it though unless dougie comes back and pushes out James.

Moreno and Bell if he doesn't like Murray and Bell would still work IMO.

MCCoy and Forte as starters with Murray as your third and Brown as 4th would be

Thanks everybody.

Anyone else have an opinion?

My only concern is that this trade would leave me with only 3 RBs that have played more than 1 game this year (McCoy, Forte, Moreno/Murray). Those would be a great 3 to have, but I'd be worried about my bench depth without seeing Brown or Vereen play much if at all this year.

I wouldn't worry about bench depth if you can get him to accept that trade. I have forte in two leagues and it would take more than that for me to trade him. Any trade right now should be to set you up for the playoffs. Bench depth isn't as big an issue this late in the season.

Would anyone make that same offer for Lacy?

Murray + Bell for Lacy?

He is an idiot if he doesn't ask for Moreno. IMO Moreno and Bell is very fair for both sides.

Bench depth is overrated. Your bench doesn't score any points for you. At this point in the year it's time to pick a horse and ride it to the finish line.

Which lineup would you rather have ROS:

1) McCoy, Moreno, Forte
2) McCoy, Murray, Forte
3) McCoy, Moreno, Lacy
4) McCoy, Murray, Lacy
