    I voted for Murray but i change my mind in a 16 teamer I might rather have the depth with the 1st and Ellington.  I like Murray alot but he's probably not going to single handedly win you a Championship so I'd gamble on Ellington and what depth i get at 1.9

    i had Murray side but i trade him for ellington today. i not sure dallas has him in there long term plans and he is a beast when on the field but injury is also a concern..i may regret it but i wanted depth as well..

    Like I said very close sounds like a good move a te at 1.9 will help

    I love Ellington's future potential but I think I would have wanted more in return for Murray.  It's not a bad deal since you are going to fill a need with the 1.09 though.

    Murray

    This is close. The value is on the Murray side IMO, but the perceived value right now makes it difficult to get more than that. I own Murray in one league and am looking to turn over the entire roster. Most still have major concerns about Murray's injuries. It's very difficult to vet value that matches his 2013 production. If I got this offer in that league (12 team), I'd probably take it, so in a 16 team league it's even better. 
    2013 predictions

    -Cobb outscores Harvin in PPR
    -Chris Ivory will be a top 15RB
    -Kenny Britt finishes outside the top 20WRs

    This is not close for me. As a Murray owner, it would take Ellington plus a top 3 pick for me to give him up.

    Murray quite easily hes a top producer when healthy. He gets banged up some yes but when hes getting a full work load hes usually going to produce top 5 rb numbers. I like Ellington but not this much.

    i see your point FFH and JR

    and like i said , i may regret we shall see..i needed the 1st more than anything and FFH i know your not a fan of picks but i am..i will do well with the pick..just as i did getting allen last year  the 2nd in a few leagues. this league also reward return yardage which ellington does .we have huge roster and huge starting requirments where ellington will be very relevant along with that 1st rd pick..and last year is really the 1st year he (murray) was actually worth owning too.

    do you realize ellington had 1 return via punt or kickoff return combined?....ZERO chance he replaces Patrick Peterson on punt returns...so I guess he could return kickoffs cause arenas wasn't great...merely okay....but what starting rb returns kickoffs?...I get your logic....why not trade murray to me in ICII?

    I don't trust Murray to stay healthy enough to sway me in believing that he can stay on the field to make big numbers worth while on owning him! In fact even if by chance he does stays healthy I don't trust Dallas to think run before pass. I'll take Ellington and the 1st.
    My league is a non PPR 12 person league having a roster of 19 players each. Active roster includes 1Qb 2Rb's 3Wr's 1Te 1K 1Def. Two weeks before draft we cut the roster down to 9 keepers. My team as of now:
    QB Russell Wilson, EJ Manuel, Josh Mckown
    RB Lamar Miller, Shane Vereen, Zac Stacy, Cierre Wood
    WR AJ Green, Julio Jones, Josh Gordon, Andre Johnson, Rueben Randle, Kenny Stills
    TE J Reed, M. Bennett, Delanie Walker
    DEF Kansas City, Cleveland
    K Steven Hauschka
