Im tied for first in my league heading into postseason in a couple of weeks. Would you give up Aaron Jones for Kamara for the rest of the season?

Jones has been killing it over the course of the whole season but Kamara seems to be a more consistent week to week option as long as he is healthy.

Is one better than the other going forward or is it just a coin flip?

Keeper league fwiw. & .5 ppr league

I'd rather Jones at this point. But I love a guy who gets into the endzone. really a toss up and whoever you think will finish stronger... but with it getting cold in GB.. Jones bout to really be carrying the load

I like Kamara's volume more going forward. Luckily I have both.

I’m thinking it’s a coin flip but Jones offers a bit more upside.

I’m leaning towards taking it for the sole reason that I’d want to select Kamara as my keeper next year

Want both badly. I texted him trying to counter giving him Tyreek Hill or Deandre Hopkins for Kamara but he wants Aaron Jones

Jones is splitting carries 50/50 with Williams.

Take this offer and run.

That’s enough convincing. I have Kamara
for the rest of the year and next year now. Don’t like that Williams takes away too many touches in GB

You made the right move. I have AK and wouldn't give him up for Jones. Jones appears to be the flashier player on the surface but I think Kamara is about to run wild.

I think his production is going to increase significantly from here on in, too.

You maybe made the right move.
Just keep in mind that all these guys with a “feeling” Kamara is about to explode are biased because they’re Saints fans

Oh is that right

You can’t give an answer but you’re sure everyone says Kamara bc they’re saints fans

40% of Jones’ scoring has come from TDs. Seeing less snaps and touches per game than Kamara

Just 8.1% of Alvin Kamara’s fantasy points have come via touchdown production, second worst among top-24 scoring backs. Average touchdown production from that group is 24.4%.

Jones could Continue to be propped up by the TD. Or you could bet Kamara who is seeing the looks and producing fantasy points without the TD boost, with a likely positive TD regression coming against a pretty soft schedule

People only wanna see the shiny numbers of fantasy points. They don't wanna look at where they come from.
