Anyone contemplating K Walker (RB)

Still cheap @13.29m & only played 2 games - BE -24, due to +2.63m
I'm trading Hall -> Walker.
I don't think Walker is a better RB but everything favours him:
BE: -24 vs 54; price: $13.29m vs $15.963m; team structure/game plan: the definite RB1 vs sharing the RB duties.
But form is the clincher:
Walker averaged 6.9 ypc against a Detroit defence that limited Connor to 1.9 ypc; White 1.8/Irving 3.1 and K Williams 2.8.
And Hall's problems have been well publicized.
It may be form. it may be coaching, but whatever it is I have more faith in Walker atm

I'm also trading Rice -> J Reed.
I think Reed is likely be a top-10 WR: GB uses him in virtually every possible way and he succeeds in all.
This video examines Reed's play and illustrates why I like him:

The video analysis has a lot of jargon but if anyone ever wondered what some of the terms mean the vision helps understanding.

After trades (don't ask :ROFLMAO:} $7.7 spare. No boosts.

I get your trades, but Aubrey in at Kicker is way over the Top I would rather take the donut and upgrade Hall and Buying in Darnolds now for Carr... I would say you missed the boat on that one Mate... You maybe better of to go with Dalton if named... currently avg 40 and should get a hefty price rise ... I assume you joking when benching Allen, right????... but it's up to you... that's my 2 bobby's worth to your choices... BoL Mate

Nearly like it, however TE's are low value in my opinion... you are forcing unnecessary trades... nothing wrong with holding on to a boost

Edited: But if you want to force the third trade I be going Dalton and dump Carr... You realise you are allowed Money in the Bank right haha... I still got 25m in mine... no need to rush to spend it either... rather fix injuries or problem childs :LOL::LOL::LOL:

With 2 WR players on a Bye and Rice out, I'm forced to make a WR trade.

I'm tossing up Rice to Reed or Collins, as I like both very much.
Break Even points aren't a factor since they would be year-long Keepers. Reed is $4.5m cheaper, which is tempting, but the numerous websites I've looked at rank Collins to be a higher scorer than Reed.

Another concern is McBride's playing status, if he's unavailable, Gesicki may not be a dependable scorer to fill in. So, I'm considering trading Gesicki for Freiermuth, despite the latter being $1 million more expensive, I read Freiermuth is a reliable scorer to provide bench cover when necessary.

I will also have to monitor RBs Jonathan Taylor and Bijan Robinson, if one is out, then I will look at trading out Dobbins for Walker.

I like your thinking.... Rice for Reed or Collins seems a good choice... I went Collins even so his match up did not thrill me... but consistency and somewhat match up proven swang me his way... re Gesicki... I get it... but TE's scores can be low on any given day and at the price low risk... save that trade is my thought.... Dobbins for Walker I do like but not a necessity... hope that helped Mate:):) (y)

My two cents worth: Collins is a more certain top WR than Reed.
As I started with Collins I don't have to choose between them.

I would still prefer Darnold even if missing out earlier.
Still has -22 BE and plays early Sunday so can VC him.
And would still have $12.3m in the bank.

Davante Adams been put on the open market by the Raiders... not good news for owners... be interesting who will pick him up.... Hot Contenders are Jets Cowboys and Steelers

From what I read he requested a trade before the deadline.

Given their WR issues I think KC will be all over him like a Rashee (sorry about that...:LOL:)

I've read that KC are eager to acquire Davante Adams to fill their wide receiver position.
