Someone has offered my Josh Gordon and Terrance West for Stephen Jackson and DeAndre Hopkins.

Is it official yet when Josh Gordon will be back? I have read rumors of Week 12, but didnt see anything official on ESPN. Should I pull the trigger on this? Here is the rest of my team outside of these players:


QB - Andrew Luck
RB - Matt Forte
RB - Montee Ball
WR - Victor Cruz
WR - Antonio Brown
TE - Greg Olsen
Flex (WR/RB) - Kelvin Benjamin
Kicker
Defense

Bench has Carlos Hyde, Terrance Williams, Kirk Cousins (plust the two players I would be giving up/receiving)

I'd do it. If you make the playoffs you have a beast of a receiver.

I'm still high on Steven Jackson and you're waiting until week 12 to get Gordon. If you're confident in a playoff berth, I'd do it. However, it does no good if you get Gordon for 2 regular season games and you don't make the playoffs.

How many teams are in the league? I'd say your roster is good enough to make the playoffs so I would do it. You'd then have Gordon, Brown. and Benjamin at WR which would be lethal to pair with a top 5 QB, top 5 RB, and top 5 TE. That would be tough to beat.

It is a 12 team league. My team took high point this week and I am 2-1 (tied for first with 4 other teams). The trade was cancelled by the other teams manager. It is now just Josh Gordon for Steven Jackson. Does that change opinions? Would leave me with just Carlos Hyde as my third running back...

It is now a 1 for 1 deal being proposed. Josh Gordon for DeAndre Hopkins. Even though I won't have Gordon until week 12 my other four receivers are Cruz, Brown, Benjamin, and Terrance Williams. I should make this deal, right? I have yet to play DeAndre Hopkins.

Yeah I would still do that trade. You've got decent wrs to make up for giving up Hopkins

I wouldn't have done the Jackson trade tho.

I'd do it, but he wants to dump Gordon badly it seems. If try to get another player for him.

I agree with the rest, do it. Might want to do Victor Cruz instead if you like Hopkins more than him, I think Hopkins has a higher ceiling since Eli sucks but that's just a personal preference, so either way I would do it. But I also have Josh Gordon in all 4 of my leagues so I'm biased, lol
