knight11e 10 Posted September 19, 2017 He still has name brand value, and I'm wondering the same thing right now. I've got Crabtree and E. Sanders as my next 2 guys, but after that it gets sketchy. I'm thinking about trying to get someone with maybe a lower ceiling but a higher floor. The Giants' offense looks awful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oriole8159 86 Posted September 19, 2017 The OBJ owner in my league is 0-2 with only 140 pts and in last place. I'm 2-0 with 207 pts in 2nd place, and I play him this week. If you own OBJ and you're in a tight spot like this guy is, then it's absolutely something you should be thinking about. If you're not, then might as well hold.

I'll offer you pennies on the dollar and hope you're dumb enough to take it. If not, oh well. I ain't giving you anything CLOSE to full value for him right now and that's the point. You're better off holding and hoping for the best Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted September 19, 2017 Giants started bad last year too, Obj was invisible. Look how his season ended. Relax people, he's yet to have a non dominant year. Then again, I drafted him and I can never get a 1st round pick to produce no matter how safe or can't miss they are. Correction, they didn't start bad last year, they were 2-0, they just weren't scoring a lot on offense is what I should have said and Odell didn't have big games.

NYG look like a dumpster fire right now but it's week 2. Worth the risk if you can get him relatively cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brutal Brutus 182 Posted September 19, 2017 There are a few guys I go down with the ship, Bell, Brown, O'dell, to name a couple. Selling low vs having a superstar tanking your season doesn't change your championship odds all that much. Having one of those guys turn around a slow start does.

Maulers1973 117 Posted September 19, 2017 Odell is a Superstar WR on an offense that is struggling. Stay the course. Green is a Superstar WR on an offense that is a dumpster fire. There's your sell if you can get anything for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ray_T 591 Posted September 19, 2017 I am not thrilled with the Giants Offense, but I ask one question: Didnt Eli and Odell start slow last year too? I was pretty sure his first game was weak and then he caught fire shortly thereafter. He's a feast or famine player. 5 games with less than 60 receiving yards, 3 with 100+ yards, one of which was a 222 yard day. the rest was in between. I think this is normal for him. but your sample size is too small and you're worried he's not having a good year. I'm pretty sure the right move is to hold him and not to panic. I dont own him in my leagues, but if I did, that's what I'd do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
We Tigers 71 Posted September 19, 2017 The OBJ owner in my league is 0-2 with only 140 pts and in last place. I'm 2-0 with 207 pts in 2nd place, and I play him this week. If you own OBJ and you're in a tight spot like this guy is, then it's absolutely something you should be thinking about. If you're not, then might as well hold. You think the reason he might only have 140 points so far is that his first round pick hasn't really been available the first two weeks? I doubt he thinks he's in a tight spot. He probably thinks "now that I've got Beckham back, I'm gonna thrash the 2-0 dude who thinks he's hot ish." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpenceToons 70 Posted September 19, 2017 Do we assume it's going to be a dumpster fire all season? Even if it turned out to be just that way, there are many who would attest that the coach and OL were dumpster fires for all of 2016 and OBJ still had a fine season.

Oriole8159 86 Posted September 19, 2017 You think the reason he might only have 140 points so far is that his first round pick hasn't really been available the first two weeks? I doubt he thinks he's in a tight spot. He probably thinks "now that I've got Beckham back, I'm gonna thrash the 2-0 dude who thinks he's hot ish." good owners still find a way to make up for that, so he's not that far behind just because he hasn't gotten production from OBJ. I had AJ Green and TY as my 2nd and 3rd rd picks, and I'm still doing great. He very well may not be interested, but I only brought it up because I think its relevant to the thread. Whether or not OBJ is a trade target is going to be league to league depending on how the particular owner's team outlook is, and I think he is a trade target in a league like mine. Thus, I encourage owners to look at their league and see if that is also the case there, that OBJ is on a poor team. If so, then I would encourage you to see him a trade target. That's all I meant.

weepaws 2,460 Posted September 20, 2017 How does a ff owner make up for that? I mean if your number one pick misses one full game and really did a walk through in his second game, how does someone make up for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimaveli 119 Posted September 20, 2017 Odell is a Superstar WR on an offense that is struggling. Stay the course. Green is a Superstar WR on an offense that is a dumpster fire. There's your sell if you can get anything for him. I've been looking sideways at AJ Green on one of my rosters since I drafted him. He 'fell' to me at the end of the 2nd and I felt 'obligated'. And I had just missed Todd Gurley so I was sad. But the market wasn't biting on him too hard so I'm 'stuck' with him for now. Keep Odell. Buy medium on him if the Peacock Sprinkles owner in your league is scared. Once he's healthy, he'll be good and explosive again. Consistent? Maybe not, but he's good.

cavern 70 Posted September 20, 2017 How does a ff owner make up for that? I mean if your number one pick misses one full game and really did a walk through in his second game, how does someone make up for that? ideally you had good picks later in the draft and knew to put them in at the appropriate time. ie: i selected DJ first and TY 3rd. I misread the luck situation. Once i realized Luck was out, i sat TY and put in Diggs. that saved my week 1. CJ anderson saved my week 2 as another decent mid rounder. i'm hopeful later pickups Buck Allen, Chris Carson, and possibly other mid rounders derrick henry and/or doug martin help me past losing DJ. i'm hopeful to win the league despite unfortunate or bad drafting in the first 3 rounds some owners probably robotically insert TY in week 1, etc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimaveli 119 Posted September 20, 2017 I was and still am terrified that we won't see much of Luck this season. At least Brisket came over to make them less terrible. But I'm still out on every non-Jacob doyle asset on that team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Goomy Noomy Roo 47 Posted September 20, 2017 Sell and get all you can for him. I look at it like this OBJ is a blue chip for now. The Giants are completely $hitting the bed this year. Even if OBJ gets healthy, this team is horrible and he won't get the chance to bring you blue chip value on the field this year as expected. So SELL and get what you can for him now while he is still a blue chip... get the goods for him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
