I have an offer where I send out Dak Prescott, Melvin Gordon, and Marvin Jones for Patrick Mahomes and George Kittle.

I have Aaron Jones and Alvin Kamara as my RBs, with James Robinson, Joshua Kelley, and AP as my backup RBs. I already have Hayden Hurst, but I am trying to sell high on Dak and buy low on Mahomes and Kittle.

Thoughts?

I'd stand pat. Dak is going to get those rushing yards. Think hell finish up there with LJ Russ Watson and Mahomes.. I don't think Kittle is really a huge upgrade but that's just me

That is what I am thinking. I love Dak, but I don't think he has the upside of Mahomes. When Kittle comes back, I can always play Hayden Hurst at flex if I need Robinson as one of my 2 RBs. I still have AJ Green and John Brown on my bench.

I'm still not sold on Robinson or the Jags yet. Hope I'm wrong. Jones is still sharing carries for some reason unkown to everyone. I didn't realize your flex was TE too. If you have room to handcuff one of those running backs I can see your logic. I'd be nervous if I had to rely on Jones and Robinson all season.

I am nervous about my RB depth as well. I used the fantasy pros rest of season rankings to see where this trade stacks up. The number is their overall ranking for the rest of the season.

Patrick Mahomes QB1 31
George Kittle TE2 20


Dak Prescott QB3 54
Melvin Gordon RB19 47
Marvin Jones WR37 82

I've got Gordon and I'm really high on him. Lindsay is hurt and so is the QB and Sutton. Gordon and Jerry Jeudy are about to feast

Smash accept man, you are getting rid of two guys who have current value propped up by injuries around them and getting sizable upgrades at two positions (although I do like Dak)

All of this. James Robinson has an easy schedule coming up through his bye week too.

Through two weeks, the Jaguars have gone toe-to-toe with two really good teams in the Indianapolis Colts and Tennessee Titans. After splitting those games in dramatic fashion, the Jags don't look like the dumpster fire many expected this season -- and that's due in large part to undrafted rookie running back James Robinson. In Week 2, Robinson had 16 carries for 102 yards and a touchdown, plus three receptions for 18 yards against Tennessee. His size and speeds are going to be a problem in 2020, and as the indisputable RB1 in a surprisingly efficient and exciting offense, Robinson is heating up.

Robinson will cede some carries on some gadget plays to Laviska Shenault and some third-down action to Chris Thompson, but other than that, he's in a prime position to resume control as the workhorse rusher in Jacksonville. Look for Robinson to dominate against the four worst rush defenses in the league when he faces the Dolphins, Bengals, Texans, and Lions from now until the team's Week 7 bye.

And let's remember that he's an undrafted free agent with no preseason game reps. Small sample size, but he's the RB 15 in .5 PPR and he's just getting started.
