HammerTime Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I would trade Robert Woods, LAR WR Jared Goff, LAR QB Chris Thompson, Wsh RB Other team would trade Le'Veon Bell*, Pit RB Sammy Watkins, KC WR Sony Michel, NE RB James White, NE RB I’d still have Brees Cook Miller Beckham Tate As my core lineup and add in what Bell could be.

UKMustangFan Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Yes, in a second. Watkins is better than Tate, and you'd be adding Michel and White who are both better plays than Thompson. Losing Goff is pretty much meaningless for you since you have Brees. I'd do the deal even if Le"Veon wasn't involved. The fact you'd get him is just icing on the cake for when he finally shows up/is traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I agree with UKMF. Good deal since you have Brees. The rest of the deal is a wash and you get control of Bell. The only downside is Brees has his bye in a couple weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammerTime Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share Posted September 26, 2018 I also have Edelman who will be back in two weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammerTime Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share Posted September 26, 2018 I'm not sure it's such a nobrainer. Goff is really good and Woods is likely going to be a solid WR2 by end of year. Bell might be out 7 more weeks. So I would get 2 bench RBs and an old WR that's had one good week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You aren't (or shouldn't be) playing him over Brees. Personally, I feel Michel is going to be a better play by season's end than Lamar Miller. Guy missed the preseason so he's just getting his legs under him. They've given him the lion's share of the touches in the backfield the past two weeks which is saying something given how NE typically handles the running game. As far as Bell goes, I think they end up trading him by the end of week 5. Even if he does sit for 10 weeks, you'll have a stud for the home-stretch and playoff time.

Alfred Blue has already cut into Miller's carries and will only get worse once Foreman comes off the PUP list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're making a compelling case, but you do have a bit of a bias. :lol2: Edited September 26, 2018 by HammerTime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMustangFan Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 You making a compelling case, but you do have a bit of a bias. :lol2: Maybe just a bit :lol2: , but when was the last time the Patriots used a 1st round pick on a RB, then (without playing a snap in the preseason) inserted that RB into the backfield and gave him the workload they have? White will be the 3rd down back all season. Outside of that, I expect Michel to be a 15-20 touch a game back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJAlltheWay24 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I would do the trade as well and pray something happens with Bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
