Had traded Grundy to Meek but realised that because I have Jackson I could take a bunch of different players instead...
I'm in the same boat having Jackson but have decided to hold Grundy for the time being, yes, he's not performing to the level of an English or Marshall but for me he was never meant to. I started him priced at 82, he's going at 103 and to me that's a win. He will have to be upgraded eventually, but I have bigger fish to fry.
I've thought about moving Jackson to R2 and using Grundy's cash somewhere else but I'm concerned that I'm painting myself into a corner. I'm expecting Jackson's output to drop once Shrek is back to a level that's still in forward keeper territory, certainly not in the territory that I want from my R2.
So what's the fallback position when R2 demands an English/Gawn/Marshall? That's a hell of a lot of cash to stump up if Jackson is to move back to the forwards and is going to be extremely hard to find with the 2nd or 3rd tranche of rookies. The opportunity cost of bringing in a top 3 ruck over the byes (for example) is large and very limiting.
If Jackson is used as the vehicle to upgrade to a top 3 ruck then he's being eliminated from the forwards equation unless he's brought back in, that could be on very short notice particularly if Shrek goes down again.
