wait crap i forgot this was a rookie draft, if he takes the 2nd and 7th plus a guy id probably do it, what does he want exactly i didnt read well
Y make that trade for u.....He won't trade it. But I offered him 2 first and any runningback on the team and he wouldn't even negotiate. He needs Zeke to save his team.
I'm currently trying to trade him for Frank Gore.
A deal around 2 lesser runningbacks and my 1st maybe.
I'm thinking of offering him
#7 Overall
Alfred Morris
Spencer Ware
My 2nd round pick (7th overall in that round)
for
Frank Gore
His 2nd round pick (1st in the round, 11 overall)
I don't know if he'd take it.
His running-backs are Zeke (we assume), Jermey Hill, Alfred Blue and Tallaferro (who is a cutable player honestly)
So my argument is Morris and Ware are as good if not better than Blue. He'll probably draft a runningback number 7 if he takes this deal too.
My runningbacks: McCoy, D Murry, Gio, Karlos Williams, McFadden, Morris, Ware, West, Crowell, Buck Allen.
I may also be drafting DGB for Matt Jones but I need to free a roster space first (this move would help do that )
Y make that trade for u.....
IMHO gore will be much much better than last year, or do NOTHING,...........no in betweenWell isn't Morris up there in years too? Ware is young but he's expendable. I guess I Was figuring Gore would be at least as good as he was last year. Maybe not though.
True this is likely Gores last year, but I won't except that trade for him. Ware is only marginally useful if Charles goes down, then only as a committe back. Morris may not have a future in the the NFL, except as a backup to give the starter a breather. Gore will be a valuable trade chip for those owners who went heavy WR early in the draft and then realize they are losing because the fring RBs they end up with are worthless and they need a actual starting RB to stay competitive. Personally I'd be comfortable having Gore as my flex player this year, can't say the same for those offered in exchange.I would not give up that much for Gore. He likely has 1 year left, and you don't need a 4th RB that bad. Morris or Ware + a 3 rounder is fair. Gore's dynasty value is low because this is likely to be his last season.

The only way Ware is worth a flex is if Charles goes down. Even then it's iffy with West competing. If Charles goes down again, you can bet that the Chiefs invest a draft pick on a real RB next year. Gore on the other hand likely has one more hurrah left.While I think Gore can be a steady Flex 1 all year the other two could be good Flex 2s at points (we use 2 flex). I also have McFadden and West who I like better which is why I rather trade Ware and Morris

As for Morris, I'd say he's going to be riding the bench except for blow outs, a trade could do wonders for him....maybe. However since McFadden broke his elbow, probably won't happen.
If you have the bench space, you may want to sit on Morris.
IMHO, rookies who play a full season tend to wear down by week 12. They aren't used to the long grind of a 16-game schedule. DMC may get hurt along the way too, given his history. That may open a need for Morris.
Granted, a lot of dominos have to fall into place for Morris' value to increase. But the scenario is not that far fetched from what we've seen in the past. Plus, anyone making a playoff push may decide to buy high around week 11-12.
In fact if DMC gets hurt in mid-season, Morris' value already starts to climb.
He'd need an Elliot injury, a DMC injury, and a lifetime VIP membership at BiogenesisI am not sure he needs a DMC injury, but he will probably need an Elliot injury. If Elliot went down, I think we could see close to a 50-50 split with Morris getting some early down looks and short yardage, and DMC getting passing game +. I don't think DMC would get more than 12-15 touches, given his age and history.
