Just got offered. I am leaning yes, but wanted to get a couple opinions. Does having Gordon on deck affect the decision at all?

PPR 2RB 2WR FLEX

My team
QB Wilson, Cam
RB Charles, Forte, Mckinnon, K Davis, Denard
WR VJax, Hilton, Michael FLoyd, Jeffrey, Gordon,
TE Kelce, Walker

My WR strength is the main reason I am hesitant, but Bradshaw isn't a slouch either. He has been pretty damn solid this year.

He just offered me a 2nd option...

Charles and Davis for Bradshaw and Watkins.I think I like that one better.

I was confused at first with the way you listed them.

Hilton, Jeffery, Vjax, Mi.Floyd, Gordon.
Forte, Charles.

No trade.

Yea not going with that one. Dez just isn't a big enough upgrade at WR to give up Forte. How about this one...

Charles and Davis for Bradshaw and Watkins

That's the deal I was saying no to

You're giving up the best player in the deal in Charles to get a RB2/flex jn Bradshaw and an inconsistent WR2 in Watkins. They aren't better than what you got, not even close.

The first deal is better, at least you are still getting an elite talent.

Do what you want, but if it were me and I didnt even have to think about what to do at RB for the rest of the season i'd be happy. Just make sure Charles doesnt die and if he does you have Davis. You are set at that position. Bradshaw, while very capable, is still losing carries to Rich.

Thanks guys. Talked some sense into me, especially this part...

"but if it were me and I didnt even have to think about what to do at RB for the rest of the season i'd be happy."

With that depth at RB and WR, Id only possibly try to leverage an elite TE. Other than that, Id stay put because you have a championship team. Very solid.

Wow so the guy is pissed I said no and got so flustered he offered a 20 dollar bet, Bradshaw vs Charles for points the rest of the year. I have Charles.
