    Default Any of these RBs net a WR1?

    Currently stacked to the nines at RB in my 10-team standard league (with RB/WR flex). However this has left me woefully insufficient at WR. So here's how it looks:

    RBs (draft rounds as keepers next year):
    Leonard Fournette (1)
    Dalvin Cook (3)
    CJ Anderson (5)
    Todd Gurley (11)
    Kareem Hunt (14)
    Alvin Kamara (12)

    So I'm looking to go after a WR1 (guys like Green, Evans, Bryant, etc.). My current WRs are D.Adams, G.Tate, S.Watkins, C.Coleman, C.Davis, J.Gordon (worth the stash for the moment with my roster). Hunt is going to be labelled as untouchable but right now I feel comfortable moving forward with this core minus one. Do you think Cook would be enough to get a WR1? Would you move Fournette or Gurley for one of the WRs above? I'd rather not move Gurley as I feel he's a great value even if he's not elite.

    All thoughts and opinions welcome!

    Gurley should definitely net a WR1. He's looked great so far. Hopefully another team went WR heavy and you can work something out.

    I know you said Hunt is untouchable but he is the only one that can land the type of WR you want at this point

    Thats tough... I would say Gurley is worth it, because someone will see round 11 value and say it is worth their WR1 in whatever round. But I would prefer to keep Gurley.

    I would wait a week and see if Cook can have another big game with Bradford back next week... and then try after that.

    Thanks for the feedback guys.

    So I didn't do a 1-for-1 deal but I netted my WR1 in a package deal. Overall:
    Traded Away: D.Cook, S.Watkins, 5th round pick
    Received: AJ Green, C.Beasley, 10th round pick

    Watkins is very hit or miss and has a brutal schedule so I had no issues letting him go while Beasley is merely bye week stash with potential spot start. But getting Green was my missing link to being a top-end threat. So now my roster looks as follows:

    QB: Rivers, Luck (holding Luck due to the situation I'm in and streaming weekly plays)
    RB: Hunt, Gurley, Fournette, Anderson, Kamara
    WR: Green, Adams, Tate, C.Davis, Beasley, J.Gordon (hey there's hope right?)
    TE: Gronk
    IR: Coleman
    DEF: Rams (last week streaming them)
    K: Haven't played one yet this year but will likely start streaming now
