I would recieve Giovani Bernard for Ronnie Hillman and kelvin benjamin .With forte on a bye next week Bernard would be a big help against Jacksonville. I also have ball on my team and I'm not sure how that situation will shake out once he returns. Here's what my team will look like if I do the trade. Espn standard 10 team.

Qb-Ryan
RB forte
RB-Bernard
RB/WR -Vereen
WR Demariyus Thomas
WR-Steve smith
TE-Jordan Cameron
D/ST-Dolphins
K-Parkey

Bench Qb-Palmer
RB-Ball,Matthews,Denard Robinson
WR-Roddy White,Odell Beckham,Deandre Hopkins
Dont do it

Id keep Benjamin and Hillman
Heck yeah I'm doing that.

Hillman future role is a big ???. Gio is a stud that doesn't all. No brainer, IMO.
Keep hillman and benjamin

In my opinion hillman top 10 rest of season rb
Ball will not get his job back
Hillman = bernard rest of season
Benjamin is a bonus on top
Um

Hillman=Gio? Cmon now.

Hillman will most likely lose touches to Ball. How many touches he will lose is the question. Will Ball be the primary back? Doubtful, but possible. Will they split 50/50? Possibly. Will Ball snake 25% of the touches? Most likely at a minimum.

Hillman has looked really good against a few good defenses, but his future role is up in the air.

Gio has a 2 year history of being a top RB and he gets all of the touches in that backfield. He's not the same guy when teams can key on him, but AJ Green is expected back which will open things up for Gio.

I'm doing this trade faster than the dude can propose it.
we have different views mr kmed

i think hillman the ROS is good as Gio, just look at both of them the past 2 weeks as a starter, look at the offenses they are in, cold weather denver will run the ball, dump offs, right now i put them side by side on the same level ros
I don't think that opinion is off the wall.  
kmed : 10/23/2014 12:26 pm : link
I have both on my team actually. I have been very impressed with Hillman, but I'd be shocked if Ball wasn't apart of that offense when he got back. The ??? around Hillman's role makes this one a no brainer for me. Take the sure thing. It's possible that Ball regains his job and Hillman goes back to the bench.
Looking at Gio this past week  
kmed : 10/23/2014 12:27 pm : link
is a terrible way to evaluate him. He was bad this week. Without AJ Green, he had no room to run. Gio was a stud last year in a somewhat limited role and then was a stud this year up til this week when he had a bad week. He's a top 5 RB for fantasy purposes.
hey man we have different views, you are right  
CruzShip52 : 10/23/2014 12:30 pm : link
and i am right, its opinions thats all

i didnt evaluate gio off one week, i said two weeks they both been starters

lets do a friendly bet, just for arguments sake
hillman + benjamin points scored ROS vs gio

and another side bet, gio vs hillman ROS points scored
Well that's not really a fair bet.  
kmed : 10/23/2014 12:36 pm : link
It would be Gio+whatever WR he would have to fill in vs Hillman and Benjamin.
sure thats fine  
CruzShip52 : 10/23/2014 12:38 pm : link
both ways
hillman v gio ROS
hillman/benjamin v gio/his fill in ROS
ok  
mdthedream : 10/23/2014 2:10 pm : link
Benjamin is no big deal to you seeing you have really good wr. The trade to you is Hillman for Gio. I would take the deal now! he is a guarantee and Hillmen will lose carries to Ball.
All  
mdthedream : 10/23/2014 2:11 pm : link
that matters is what is best for your team. Gio is best for your team. You have WRs that is just as good as benjamin so you might never play him.
My thoughts  
BGibson82 : 10/23/2014 2:12 pm : link
Exactly. Even losing Benjamin I still have very solid depth at WR.
