Gibson has RB1 upside and his contract could easily become one of the best values in the next couple of seasons. Chubb is a good player in his own right, so I think it’s a win-win.

Who cares? He's a running back.

By name.   I'm not limited to just slating him in the backfield as a RB1.   He still has a lot to prove,  but he offers a ton of versatility in scheming.   Just another athlete to keep your Safety/LB's preoccupied from spying on Kyler.

He’s a weapon and I expect them to expand on his use as such in year 2 with hopefully more steady QB play if they address it.

RB is an important position in BDL. 

Not any moreso than in the IRL NFL, and with even fewer teams here, it's a position you can easily find a quality starter at. There's going to be at least four quality starters at RB in BDL free agency alone.

It's not that I think Gibson is a bad player or anything, he just doesn't really move the needle when it comes to trade value.

This is an unprecedented class of RBs in FA if this holds up. As someone who won a championship with the presence of an elite RB, I can definitely attest to its importance. Dalvin Cook was not healthy in the year prior and Jamaal Williams (solid player IMO) did not provide the same projection in gameplanning.
