I am debating whether to ride Lynch one more year, or trade him now. I am a playoff team, and my other notable RBs are McCoy and J.Bell. I usually start Lynch, McCoy and 3 WRs. If I make this trade, I will likely play 1 RB and 4 WRs.
This will likely not be a straight up trade but I wanted opinions on some possible targets. This is a complicated league with salary cap, contract years and idp.
Possible trade targets, in no particular order:
ODB
C. Hyde
M. Evans
J. Gordon
R.Cobb
Julio
E. Lacy
I said no particular order, but ODB and Hyde are the 2 I really have my eye on. Thoughts?
I like a lot of those names on that list, actually all of them to be honest. I agree with you about ODB, his upside appears to be the greatest but I like Cobb a lot as well and it's hard to argue with what Evans is doing.
Hyde comes with a little risk, should be next up as early as next year but obviously no sure thing. I'd maybe rather see you go Lacy over him just because you know what you got and I think he's starting to come on.
I've actually been pretty good over my career in a league at getting backs before they really bust out and then trading them right before they fall off. No secret really, just a gut thing. If you have a chance to win this year, and I assume you do with those names, I'd maybe just ride him. You know your team though. Trading him and getting back something that can also help this year may be the way to go. Lynch's value may never be higher.
