Murray + Djax for Montee + Nelson

Following on from my question yesterday, does this seem like a good deal? What if I had to throw in Devonta Freeman or Torrey Smith as well? Would I be better to offer Gio, DJax, Torrey and Freeman (I would then probably pick up 2 of Rueben Randle/Brandin Cooks/Jordan Matthews/Carlos Hyde)?

Personally I really like Murray and I am not sold on Montee, so I can't really tell.

Warren, on a side note: keep an eye on training camp, to see which back is protecting Manning. Broncos value protecting Peyton more so now. They will switch to that back, start of season. i'm not completely sold on Ball ... probably in the minority. As for, Murray, - i like him, being on Dallas, high powered offense and a defense that will suck this year. He catches balls out of back field better than most.

Yeah I agree. I'm definitely a lot higher on Murray than Ball - but in nervous about my receivers. It's not a huge concern, there are always receivers that pop up on the wire, but yeah I'd just love to lock down an elite option

I think Murray is the best player in that deal, but the ranks have him and Ball fairly close. Shane is right that Aaron Rodgers has a few good targets, but I don't know how you can conclude that DJax will be the go to guy in Washington. Barring injury, Pierre Garcon will lead the team in targets and already has chemistry with RG3. Meanwhile, we already know Nelson can be a WR1 with that situation. However, I like the Bernard deal better, and my picks would be Randle and Matthews.

Thanks. Wasn't sure if 4 guys was too much to give up for the top level improvement I'd get. But yeah will try to push ahead with the gio trade I think.

That's tough. Murray is more injury prone than Montee, but Montee has little experience. Nelson is 1 of many options for Rodgers yet DJax might be RG3's go to guy. If you go with the 2nd option, I would choose Randle and Hyde. Rookie WR's rarely pan out. (exceptions of course like keenan allen)
