14 team PPR

Brees

Ellington
Vereen
Gore
Taliaferro
Mckinnon

Demaryius
Dez
Cooks
Welker
Josh Gordon

Kelce

...Is Foster worth trading for? will he be a good RB for the season, or be mediocre and injured all year...is he even worth the risk?

Vereen and Welker for Foster? would you make that deal?

He is worth the risk imo since Welker is a risk too and the New England backfield has been a crap shoot.
Doubt the other guy goes for that trade though, unless he has a man crush on Wes Welker.

In a 14 team ppr league you got damarius, dez, brees, Ellington, and vareen?

I don't believe you.

His injuries from last year scare me, but I don't believe most of what comes out of Bill O'Brien's mouth (Belichick disciple)

Not that concerned if he's still practicing in some capacity. I think it just flared up again and they are limiting him.

Is Blue available? If you can get him too, then it's a no brainer. A healthy Foster is a top 5 back in the league. He proved that with back-to-back 100 yard games to start the season

Your team isn't that unbelievable. Definitely doable in a 14 team league. I have AJ Green, DT88 and Gronk in my 14 team league.

And I wouldn't trade for Foster because he's hurt and hamstring injuries are tricky. He also has a pretty extensive injury history over the last few years... I just wouldn't want the worry.

Welker looked good in his first game back. He is an injury risk, too. But I'd rather Welker + Vereen over Foster at this point.

Flex Welker

To piggy back off of Jimi, I would keep Welker + Vereen and pick up Blue if he's available.

I have Blue in 2 of my leagues because I don't expect Foster to last whenever he returns.

We're talking about 2 WRs in the most high powered offense in the league. We aren't talking about the Vikings here. I'm starting both E Sanders and Welker in a league.
