Trade Panic Time. (Keenan Allen Owner) Would You Accept?

quote:

---

A guy offered me Travis Benjamin + Ryan Mathews for Tajae Sharpe + Isaiah Crowell

Is this a serious question?
yes do that.

Of course you take that. Mathews would be a solid RB2/flex for you after slotting baldwin up. You can drop allen and a TE and pick up williams and a QB just in case wilson's injury puts him out for a week.

Rg3 being out helps Crowell. Mccown is an upgrade. People sleeping on Crowell. If anything you're selling him low. Matthews didn't look good against a poor D, injury prone

Don't see how this deal makes you better. You shouldn't be trading for more meh depth.

Let's talk this out, I dont want to make your decision for you.

Is there a discernable difference between Jones, Matthews, and Crowell? You said you're in a PPR league; those guys are all one dimensional, between the tackle type guys. Your splitting hairs trying to decipher who does what better.

Back to the PPR

Sharpe just saw 11 targets, hauling in 7. That's money in the bank. As for Benjamin, Rivers has never sustained a deep threat in SD. We waited for Malcolm Floyd to be relevant for years. Rivers just prefers the intermediate throws. He will connect with TB on occasion, but all things point to Sharpe hauling in balls in bulk.

So I ask you - why not just bump Baldwin to WR, and play the mathchup in your flex w Sharpe, Shepard (Saints next week, done), Crowell etc


IMO, that's just a crummy, reactionary trade to be making in W1. Doesn't do much for you. Be patient, reevaluate in a few weeks. Guys like Sharpe, Shepard, Crowell, Jones could be good players for you, or prime trade targets. And you get Eiffert back. If you're going to make a deal NOW, you need to send out to and get 1. Get a guy that stands out from the guys on your bench.
