As always... it depends on who you are dropping...

But sure... he should cost you at least 40% of your FAAB

And that's if yer lucky. That was my first thought too, but tTitans DLine is no joke. My fear is he pulls a Josh Kelly this week and tBrowns sign Fourny or Hunt. So me, I grabbing Hunt fer cheap where I can.....just my opinion.

I am going after him in at least 2 leagues. 1 is a blind bid auction, but it is with real money and there is no limit. I'm bidding $18.something, which is on the high end, but not the highest ever for a FA. Normally, if I am just playing defense, I would bid around $8 to make sure that whoever gets him really wants him. I wouldn't say I need him in that league, but I sure would like to have another solid starting RB with Dobbins done for the year.

The other league, I am #1 on the ww and I think this is a good time to cash that in. Again, he is a luxury there (more than in my main league), but playing defense and putting myself in a situation where I may be able to trade a RB in a few weeks.

I do worry about them signing Hunt, though. Just not sure that I want to drop who I would need to drop in order to pick him up. In the ww league where I have #1 priority, I need to figure out who I am dropping for him. Looks like my choices are...

Skyy Moore
Roschon Johnson
Courtland Sutton?
Dak Prescott (my starter is Herbert)

Leaning towards Dak. 12 team league that starts 1 QB.

honestly, i think akers is the most likely... Maybe its my wishful thinking that is getting in the way... but i think akers makes the most sense.... he is young enough that they can see if this is a future signing too...

i dont know what he will cost, and all these options wont be ready for this sunday no matter what...

Hunt would take some of his workload but I am not too worried about Hunt.

A couple reasons:

-He isn't the same player he once was and I think Cleveland knows that, that's why they didn't resign him. They intended for Ford to eventually take over for him.
-Hunt isn't an every down back and it sounds like the Browns believe Ford is an every down back.
-The Browns aren't going to overpay for a guy in that role and Hunt turned down multiple offers from other teams.

Quick hits out of Denver, take em for what they're worth;

calling for more B. Johnson and Mims, less Sutton. (more McLaughlin and a commitment to running the ball, too for that matter)

Dak is a fine choice to drop in that format.

Blind FAAB with real money... that's wild, adds another whole layer of strategy in it!

Coming up on 20 years now with that. Works pretty well. All that money goes in the pot, as well as $1 for every move that is made that does not go to auction or is FCFS. Adds up.

For what it's worth I'm bidding $387 of a $500 budget on him, but I need running back help pretty bad in that league.
