Trade: Brandin Cooks for Ryan Mathews?
12 team 0.5 ppr
start 2 rb, 2 wr, 1 te, 1 flex

my team:
RBs: Charles, Ellington, Peterson
WRs: Sanders, Floyd, Benjamin, Patterson, Cooks, Randle, Gordon
TEs: Kelce, Allen

I'm severely lacking in RB depth unless AD gets reinstated. No one on waivers is worth dropping for any of my guys. Big problem is that I don't have an RB to play week 6 when Charles is on bye, but Mathews won't be back by then. He could be useful later in the season as a flex or in case one of mine goes down.

Should I accept this offer? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Target a better RB than Mathews. Trading for injured players is never advised. Especially one like Mathews.

    I wouldn't do it, especially in any form of ppr. You already said Mathews won't be back by the time you need him, and he's too injury prone on top of that. See if you can work another deal. You're deep enough at receiver to be able to make something reasonable happen.

    -p.s. I hope that's Michael Floyd and not Malcolm Floyd

    Thanks for the input! That's how I feel too, but wanted some confirmation before declining. And yes, it is certainly Michael.
