Is Tavon Austin worth 1.02?
  • 85_bears85_bears May 2013
    Posts: 384
    Have the 1.02 (thanks to the strikeouts I had last season). Is Austin worth it? My team needs some help, I know. And trading in this league is almost impossible as everyone hordes their players and expects to make out the winner of a trade. So based on my sig, would you take Austin at 1.02 or go with either Ball, Lacy, or Bell? I also own the 1.12 and was thinking of taking Lattimore as a stash there but could also look at a WR there too.

    I like Austin there but looks like you need a rb more so take the player you like best. Bell or Austin would be my pick

    I'd take Ball or Bell (I prefer Bell) ... especially with your need at RB.

    Even with the potential of Austin putting up some gaudy numbers as a rookie?

    Why can't Ball/Bell put up gaudy numbers too?  He needs a HB much more than a WR.  With everything being about equal, Austin/Bell/Ball all have a good shot at being productive, therefore his team need of HB takes precedence, IMO.

    Go with your gut.

    Hopefully, 1.01 takes Austin so your decision is made for you.

    If not, Id go Bell if avail. Austin if he's not.

    So

    QB - Wilson
    RB - Wilson, Matthews
    WR - Garcon, Amendola
    TE - Gronk
    Flex - Bell

    1/3 PPR kills Austin's value IMO

    Any chance the Pead owner is interested in Richardson/Hilton for something? Picks or a RB in return?

    With your roster and starting requirements, I'd go Bell then Ball if Bell's gone.

    boobam - won't even bother with trade offers. other owners are too hard to deal with. 

    with my big weakness at RB, was thinking of Lattimore at 1.12 if he's still there too.

    well, if you have a big weakness at RB you might wanna, you know, forget about targeting the guy who isn't likely to play this year. I would think Stacy/Michael should be up your alley at that pick if you were looking for RB help. even Joe Randle, since Murray is so injury prone. J franklin might be there too.
