I think I would do that. Gibson and Ekeler are close imo
Kelce is way better than Kittle esp. with the uncertainty of Lance starting
Murray is a huge upgrade for you

Ekeler is RB2 and Gibson is RB18 in half PPR.

They also had my team ranked first this past week and I lost to the team ranked last.

I'm seeing 5 and 14 FWIW.

All good.

As for the trade, I think you probably have to do it for the upgrade at QB and TE. Kittle seems to be hurt a lot. Ekeler was hurt last year and with Heinicke playing pretty well you would think that Gibson will have some scoring opportunities.

Jimmy G may be playing Sunday. Turned out to just be a bruise.

Not really concerned about Sunday, I’m thinking in terms of building a contender.

Though it would be wise to keep Arizona guessing on who is starting leading up to lance’s debut. Jimmy G himself speculated weeks on the injury. Bye week coming next week. Reading between the lines here

If you’re proactive you’re adding Lance yesterday, bc if he goes into the desert and knocks off the undefeated birds, there may be no looking back

Keep the core of Ekeler/CMC/Moore/Metcalf. Use Godwin/Chase/Kittle to fetch another stud. Add Lance for free. Profit

I would only think of doing that if I had a bad record and needed to win right now. Even then I would only think about it. The drop off from Ekeler to Gibson is much bigger than the drop off from Murray to streaming QBs IMO. I would rather stream QBs and hold on to the lottery ticket vs giving up Ekeler.

I’m 4-0 and Metcalf did great with my opponent playing R Wilson. So this week is looking promising as well.

I may just hold.

Do you have room on your roster to pick up Rountree to handcuff Ekeler? Not the best handcuff in the world. But, it's gonna be better than what's on the waiver wire I'd Ekeler misses time.

He's been getting the 2nd reps behind Ekeler. I've seen some of the "experts" say that they still think it's Justin Jackson though. Looks like Rountree has out touched Jackson 35 to 14 this year.
