0.5 PPR league

I have Dez, AJ, Julius Thomas, Sammy Watkins, Eric Decker, and Allen Hurns for receivers.

My only running backs are Alfred Morris and Lamar Miller. Once Knowshon comes back, Lamar will be worthless. I need RBs.

Trade: I get Ben Tate and Justin Forsett for Dez. Should i be getting more for Dez?

You should be getting a lot more. I hope he's at least giving you a reach around.

You are getting an injury prone rb on a bad team and another rb firmly stuck in a time share whose value may steadily decline as the year goes on for one of the top wr's in the game. It's a stupid horrible trade for you.

I'm in the same boat shopping dez.

I've been looking at Morris and cooks or Patterson.
Might also throw in cam for josh Gordon, more if a gamble. He needs a QB.

Miller certainly won't be worthless. That said, why not trade for Moreno on the cheap and own the entire backfield of a team that can run the ball? As an injury prone rb, Moreno is worth far more to someone who owns Miller than to someone who doesn't.

Not really sure what i was thinking. I'm blinded by the fact that I really need a couple RBs

Only sell high if you can actually get high value, which I somewhat doubt. Plus, again, Moreno is made of glass. As a Miller drafter, I went out of my way to get Moreno when he went down. Fantasy is all about minimizing risk, and owning the entire Dolphins backfield has to be the cheapest way to be all but guaranteed to have a top 10 RB almost every week.

Good God. Yes you need help at WR, but you should be able to get a whole hell of a lot more for Dez than that. You should at least be getting someone in the range of Arian Foster (although with his health I wouldn't want him), or something like Tate and Gore.

Still don't like that trade. You wouldn't be playing White anyway except for byes or the occasional flex, and Forsett and Tate for Dez still sucks.
