FuzyLucker 8 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I'm trying to swing a trade for Kareem Hunt, wondering what would you guys thinks about which combo would be enticing? I was thinking my Julio + Cook for His OBJ + Hunt. Thoughts? WHIR My team in sig HIs team QB: Stafford, Luck RB: Ajayi, Hunt, Powell, White, Charles WR: OBJ, D.Hop, Landry, Robinson, K.White TE: Reed, Brate DEF: Den K: Bailey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thor 88 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 It's a close call, but I like the Julio/Cook side of that deal a little bit better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Caucasian Sensation 463 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I think for now without seeing Cook or Hunt play in any regular season games, you would have to call it a "push". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baller179563 615 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I'd make that trade Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FuzyLucker 8 Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 It seems like Hunt's situation is much better right now right? Spiller just got cut KC only carrying 2 RBs now with C.West as the handcuff Reid has done wonders for Rookie RBs, play in a offense that's on par compare to the Vikings and both have a great Defense. Now with Cook he's probably a better talent with his college tape but preseason I'll say Hunt was a better performer. Murray might be over with injury and might took him a couple of games to have an impact but I don't see how he doesn't get the majority of the GL at least and with McKinnon don't know what is role will be. Another major issue for me is MIN OL was pretty bad in preseason (I know it's preseason things might be different comes week 1) but they were bad last season and no significant upgrade to the line has me worry. So I feel like the situation between these 2 RBs have a bigger gap than what Julio and OBJ have. Therefor I feel like it's a good trade for me what does everyone think?

Guchman 201 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I'd rather have Julio as my WR but I'd rather have Hunt as my RB. I'd stay put if it were me but it's an even trade so if you're aiming to get Hunt, that's a good way to do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PackerBacker555 943 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Keep Julio for sure. Cook will score more fantasy points than hunt as well imo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sess 29 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I'd keep Julio. I value Cook more than Hunt, so I'd stay put. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Axe Elf 2,540 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 I don't get this fascination with Kareem Hunt, other than that he's a shiny new rookie full of potential who suddenly found himself the starter so everybody thinks he's a great find or something. I mean Spencer Ware never had higher than a 4th round ADP, but I keep seeing Hunt taken early in the third round. Ware went for $15-$18 in auctions; Hunt goes for $24-$26. So the rookie backup is more valuable than the incumbent starter was? I'm not buying it, and I think a lot of people are going to be disappointed with Hunt's performance this season.

My concerns are at the 5th post as I stated that the drop off between Julio to OBJ is much closer than Hunt to Cook. I can see some people are worry about OBJ's ankle since there wasn't much news on it but Julio also have a foot problem himself as well and he seems to allegic to the endzone consider his 1st rd price tag. Not trying to challenge u, I just need more reasoning behind it. That's all Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not trying to challenge u, I just need more reasoning behind it. That's all only foot problem Julio will have is deciding what shoes to wear as he finishes as the 1 overall WR this year. Beckham on the other hand will be flip floppin around between lingering ankle and hamstring issues all season, while Brandon Marshall takes over as the WR1 for that team. So at this point, it doesn even matter what Hunt or Cook does this season, you need to keep Julio regardless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I really appreciate ur opinion on helping my question but to say someone is going to finish the season overall #1 WR and OBJ is gonna be trouble by injuries all season with Marshall taking over it all just sounds like bold predictions to me which that's pretty much what we all do here but u still didn't give me actually datas, stats, situations and precedents to back this up. Would u feel at all a bit more confident about making a trade if I tell u what u told me. Again, I am not trying to offend u in anyway and if u feel that way then I apologize in advance.

I don't know you at all, but I would feel more comfortable with you as my O-coordinator than Steve Kardashian. The only game plan on offense now with Shanahan gone will be to force feed Julio who gets the Saints, Panthers, and Bucs D twice a year mostly indoors, or you can go with the guy who goes to the Bahamas the week before a playoff game. When you look up the definition of "red zone vulture" in the dictionary, it says "see: Brandon Marshall" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh wow, the legendary elf. Always read ur comments on this forum with good insights. Here my take on Hunt, to me he's a little less talented than Cook but what I like about him is like I said the situation he's in, KC just let go of Spiller today that leaves West as the back up. Personally idk if KC will bring anymore RB for depth in the future but they only have 2 RBs that's it so workload is ideal for a bellcow add on the history of usage of previous Reid's RBs with an average to above average Oline and above average defense. Now Cook on the other hand is not handling GL at the moment and mcKinnon still there but who knows he might if Murray is as bad as everyone said without that No.2 Oline from OAK last year since MIN's Oline was pretty bad last season and still bad this preseason with no major upgrade (I know its preseason but still) I'm not saying the Oline is everything but its hard for me to imagine the talent Cook has to possess to have any success to match his ADP. That's why I wanna have Hunt over Cook. What pushes me to wanna trade like I said before is the gap between Julio & OBJ is much closer than the gap between Hunt & Cook. What u think Elf?

In an auction ($200) Cook went for $32 and I passed, and I later bought Hunt at $35. I'd rather buy Cook at $35, looking back. Edit: Draft was Thursday.
