Burkhead or Michel?

this is for the year of 2018

Burkhead is my 4th RB behind Gurley, MIxon, Collins.....It's not likely Burkhead sees time on my team, just a stash. Would it be wise to accept a  trade for Sony? He is currently a backup but by midseason could steal job and be a force.I have depth to stash.. I read somewhere 80percent of first round RBs become RB1 in rookie year, and the Pats offense a machine. Burkhead also has a tear in his knee and injury history... would you accept a trade of Burkhead for Michel in this case?

It depends on how much you need player now vs. later.  If it’s a stash or even a keeper choice then it’s easily Michel.   But you have to realize it could take 6-8 weeks before he pays off.   Playoffs / stretch run type guy.   The ceiling is immense though.

Every time Rex gets a big workload he’s broken down.   That’s a big factor in my call too.   I don’t think his value will ever be higher than now barring re-injury to Michel.
