BELL / MIXON

Recommended Posts

I absolutely would not do that. I am a steelers fan and so i keep up with a lot of the news on them and also i hate the bengals. I do also have mixon on my team and if he is not hurt, he is very good. even if bell does play (and i hope he does not) he will not be as good since conner will continue to play and take more playing time away, so i think bell's value is not as high as it was preseason. having said all that, bell could come back and light the world on fire, or be traded to a new team and put up great numbers, but this is risk/reward and with mixon i think you have a pretty good RB and it's not worth the risk (and the possibility that he doesnt play at all is too great compared to the possibility that mixon will be as good as bell the ROS).

 

the 2nd question about the value, my opinion is, if i drafted bell, unless i could get a big time RB in return, my position would be to just hold on this point and hope, so i dont see the bell owner trading. why not just wait it out after waiting this long. now having said that if i was the bell owner and someone offered me mixon, i would make that trade. you would be getting a very good RB and giving up a headache that is unreliable.

 

bottom line: if im the bell owner, i make this trade, if im the mixon owner, i do not.

Well I am the Bell owner and I have Conner. With that said, my best case would be for Bell to be traded if I keep him. Bell and Conner together would just make things messy. I think my plan is to throw out trades to everybody in my league either for a RB1/WR1 and see if someone bites.

Your posting was confusing, I thought you had Mixon and was offered Bell. Anyway, I don't think an owner would offer you Mixon unless he has Gurley or Kamara and is loaded at WR. Without seeing the rest of your team it is hard to give advice. If you are weak at WR go for a top WR, but I would wait until there is a Bell return announcement or trade.

ah, yes, i thought you were the mixon owner as well. if you are the bell owner and can get mixon i would take it. if bell comes back and plays with conner you have problems with the timeshare, but with that trade, you would at least have a starter in mixon, and if bell doesnt play, you have mixon and conner, 2 starters, instead of playing either bell or conner each with along with someone else.

Yes it does depend on the roster of the Mixon owner also.
