Reply With QuoteHorrible return. Gronk is super elite and will be back soon. Plus MJD is injured now too and that offense can't move the ball.
Gronk for MJD+Blackmon
I have already got Graham, but our lineup has a WR/TE and a WR/RB spot as well. 10 team non-ppr league. Some bonuses for yardage.
QB: Wilson
RB1: Spiller
RB2: Sproles
WR1: Cruz
WR2: Jordy Nelson
WR3: Marlon Brown
WR/TE: Gronkowski
WR/RB: Miller
TE: Graham
K and DST: streaming
Bench:
QB: Romo
RB: Mendenhall
WR: Thompkins, Stills, Broyles
TE: Clay
This trade would force me to start one of Blackmon, Thompkins, Still, Broyles, Clay in that final WR/TE spot but I (hopefully) get an upgrade on my RB3 spot from Miller to MJD. He might even be my new RB2.
The plan would be to continue trading and flip one of Sproles, Miller, Mendenhall for an upgraded WR3.
Too much risk? Stick with what I've got?

Horrible return. Gronk is super elite and will be back soon. Plus MJD is injured now too and that offense can't move the ball.
Cant agree that it is horrible. If I remove all the players that would start before and after all the trades I would end up with:
OLD:
WR3: Marlon Brown/Thompkins/Stills/Broyles
WR/TE: Gronkowski
WR/RB: Miller/Mendenhall
NEW:
WR3: someone like Steve Smith/Stevie Johnson/Torrey Smith/Antonio Brown
WR/TE: Marlon Brown/Thompkins/Stills/Broyles/Blackmon/Clay
WR/RB: Sproles/Miller
I believe those WR3s will get me about the same fantasy points as Gronk, I would be stronger at WR/RB and I'll have more options in that final spot being able to include both Blackmon and Clay.
Plus we dont know what Gronk will be like when he returns. The key here is that you cant compare Gronk with other TEs, since I've already got Graham. He needs to do way better than WRs like Antonio Brown, Torrey Smith or whoever I can fetch for Mendenhall.

If Gronk is healthy, it's a guarantee that he's better than Brown,Smith,Mendenhall, etc. Gronk has 38 TDs in 43 career games and Brady has no one else to throw to. He's one of the elite fantasy producers in the league. Plus, you are talking about making more deals after this deal and it's no guarantee what's out there. MJD and Blackmon could both easily end up being useless. The Jaguars do not have a TD through 2 games lol.Originally Posted by ynotzz
Lamar to MJD is not going to be the upgrade you're expecting. Jags are the worst team in the league and will be very lucky to walk away with 2 wins. They won't see very many red zones I simply won't buy in on any jags right now no matter the price. Hold on to Gronk and wait till he lights it up and then deal him for an actual healthy return. Don't trade him while he's injured regardless of you having Graham.
