Would you be in a hurry to strengthen this RB room or wait it out?

Team is

Burrow

Breece (:cry:), M.Sanders, Montgomery, Dillon, Pacheco, Allgier

Chase, Tyreek, DHop, Kirk, Valdez-Scantling, OBJ


With Breece gone, I’m gonna pick up one of D’onta Foreman/GusEd and maybe both if I can pull off a 2fer1 trade (RB/WR for a Tier up RB). Just got turned down on Kamara for Monty&Scantling. Knew I shoulda gone with Kirk but I was starting low lol.

My WR room is just silly, so I’m trying to leverage that into strengthening my mediocre (at best with Breece gone) RBs
I’m 5-2, Won 4 straight, and have been the high scorer 2 weeks in a row. 3pts back for overall lead.

So I guess what I’m asking is…
Press a trade for an upper level back, or stay Pat & see if one of these 17 mediocre backs pops and becomes somebody?

If you can play your top 4 WRs weekly I wouldn’t be in a massive rush. Great RB play is so few and far between this year I’d almost rather start those 4 WRs especially with Burrow going meteoric.

I would’ve likely publicly shamed you for that

*only start 3 of them.
It was Chase, Kirk, Hill
Now it’s Chase, Hill, DHop
no thinking involved there
I look at Kirk & Scantling as about the same & wouldn’t lose much if one was gone especially since they’re 4th option

OBJ is just an ace in the hole

Lol, yeah. It’s my first year in this league, just feeling guys out. Trading is so hard to do in any league I’ve ever played in. Hard to find 2 teams that have the depth at 2 different positions

Last I heard, OBJ not expected back until December. Not sure he's worth holding.

I would try to package Kirk or MVS and Montgomery for an upgrade, but not sure what that value is. If you can't find any takers, hold and see if the Ravens are actually going to feed Gus.

This what I’m going to do. With all those backs, somebody gonna step up. At worst I’ll have to figure out who to start each week. Sanders & ??? most weeks. Trade a WR & I could easily find myself in a bind there with an injury.
