I like ridley more going forward. The last 3 games he has played he has ran well and Gronk just got back which should only help. Now whether Belichick will actually give him the majority of the snaps we shall see.

I will never understand why anyone would trade 1 RB for another RB, or 1 QB for another QB, etc.

I like the trade, but there are too many variables and moving parts to know for sure.

Ridley has had a good couple of weeks, but Murray has been solid all year. Assuming Murray comes back healthy, you won the trade, IMO.

But Murray could get injured again or this injury could linger and Ridley could continue to perform.

Or Ridley slumps again and/or loses the starting job when Vereen returns.

This is pretty much what I figured. I was worried about Vereen's return stealing from Ridley's potential. I already have McCoy and Charles. So it is basically on upside since either one will be playing the flex

I would have made that trade, FWIW.

Murray is the more proven back... if he stays healthy he will produce more than Ridley, but not by a lot. You have the slight edge in this trade.
