    He said no...I countered with a 2nd he said no again he said Tate and a first rounder shoulder be enough.



    If in the right spot, I like it, but there isby a slight chance something doesn't go right situationally. Bell is the safe play, Tate is the high risk high reward. Bell has a lot of trade value right now, I bet you can get more in another deal even.


    Im actually just waiting until he signs somewhere that disappoints people and emotions get into play. Most holding him assume itll be Cleveland and are valuing him highly already.


    I have no idea where he will go...I just know that hes really good and has a good chance to be really productive where ever that is. Ive seen him play in the NFL and he was good.

    I remember how upset Ben was during the draft process that he was not taken earlier like all do in his position. I feel Ben will show his new team why they picked the right guy for the job. I'm hoping he goes to Cleveland so they'll be sorry if they try to stuff the run with Gordon on the outside. These two, Gordon and Tate will help each other if that happens I feel.
    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:

    Does Tate need a zone blocking scheme like he had in HOU?

    If so, what teams in need of RB have that scheme?

    I would be beyond shocked if Tate ended up in BAL. Tate has already stated that he wants to be "the guy", and have a chance to show how great he is. His words, not mine. Rice may be in flux right now, but neither Rice or Pierce are going anywhere IMO. If he was going to go to BAL then he might as well stay in HOU.

    I like that trade as well. I am curious ab tates value...I know rankings here are different...but seems as if Tate's higher thAn bell and vereen...and bell is only slightly higher than vereen wat made my deal so far off? I am clearly misvaluing something here and want to get it right. This is based off the trade I mentioned earlier getting Tate and 1.7 for bell and the vereen trade that was accepted for Tate. Just trying to get my mind right...thanks guys!

    Cleveland I do bc he has support. Hoyer is no joke IMO and with Gordon outside that doesn't allow a stacked box.
