You need the RB depth, but you are giving up too much IMO. Unless he is also shallow at RB, he should accept.

It's not an official offer, but it puts me in a better position in the long run statistically

The trade is pretty even just looking at the players involved, but what are you going to do at wr?

Eta: shite not sure what you're going to do at running back either. I might accept this in a standard league.

you're creating another hole trying to plug another. Your WRs would suck.

Vereen and Ellington don't have the value in standard like they do in PPR

Nelson is the best player by far in the deal. You don't trade studs for mediocre depth

I like Vareen more than Ellington anyway. That would be a horrible trade.

It looks kind of bad either way. Like the others said, you'll potentially fix your RB corp but good luck with those WRs. Vice versa too. Tough place IMO.

If I were to get two to three stud WRs and Andre + Bell or Chris Johnson or Vereen, do you think that would suffice in a Standard league? Or should I just go stud WR/good RB in my first pickings?

(I wish I were in a PPR league... it'd be so much easier for me)
