    Default Huge fournette offer

    So the trade is:

    My: Carlos Hyde and Deshaun Watson
    For
    His: Leonard Fournette and Cam Newton


    I feel like this is a no brainer!


    Scoring settings for my league are:
    Rushing:
    Rushing yards- 0.1 points
    TD Rush- 6 points
    2 pt conversion- 2 points

    Receiving:
    Receiving yards- 0.1 points
    Each reception- 1 point
    TD Reception- 6 points
    2 pt conversion- 2 points


    My team is as follows:
    QB: Deshaun Watson, Russel Wilson
    RB: Melvin Gordon, Jordan Howard, Carlos Hyde, Ameer Abdullah, Matt Brenda, Darren Mcfaden
    WR: Michael Crabtree, Dez Bryant, DeSean Jackson, Devante Parker, Sammy Watkins, Mike Williams
    TE: Zach Ertz, Jack Doyle
    K: Dan Bailey, Dustin Hopkins
    DEF: Vikings

    Every week you have to play:
    1 QB
    2 RB
    2 WR
    1 TE
    1 FLEX
    1 K
    1 DEF

    I'm not so sure about that one.
    I agree that you want you hands on Fournette, but are you really going to be able to replace Watson's production from the QB position?
    How much is Watson scoring over Cam & Russel wilson, vs Fournette some of your other options.

    Watson nad Fournette are both rookies. Fournette is also a giant.
    So what you are really gambling on is: is Watson for real? Will he keep doing this?

    Fournette is an easier bet to make because of his sheer size on an otherwise mediocre offense.

    I like this trade for you.

    Yes... Watson is quite a bit better then Newton right now...

    Newton has a decent schedule coming up.... Watson schedule not as good... but he showed that he can defeat good defenses like the Seahawks.

    Fournette and Hyde have similar strength of opponents... but I like Fournette way better.

    To me, I still have Russel Wilson who showed he is capable of putting up big numbers every week. He outplayed Watson yesterday. I just feel the upgrade from Hyde to fournette is much more significant to the the downgrade from Watson to newton. Especially when I already have wilson.. I can?t start Watson AND Wilson.. and frankly idk if it?s worth owning both because I?m gna wanna start Watson every week.. but I can?t

    I also have another deal:

    My: Gordon and Watson
    For
    His: A J Green and Winston... but now it doesn?t sound as good.. I was doing this only because I feared Gordon?s injuries

    No the other trade is way better.

    Will the first guy do Watson and a lesser RB then Hyde for Fournette? Leave Newton out of deal... especially if you have Wilson.
