We have our first "TWOFER" where one team trades two depth pieces for a one player upgrade. Hill Valley has perfected the twofer in recent years, amassing depth and turning it into higher level talent; However, Oakwood actually fleeced them on a THREEFER last year, when they netted WR Hakeem Nicks, LB Wesley Woodyard, and the same RB Fred Jackson for RB Arian Foster- who promptly went down and out for the season immediately upon joining the McFlys.
Hill Valley acquires:
WR Pierre Garcons
Oakwood acquires:
WR DeAndre Hopkins
RB Fred Jackson
Garcon was quiet in week two, despite fireworks going off around him; He just didn't get involved in the party. Expectations should have him firmly in the WR2 camp going forward- steady production with good upside and very few clunkers. Fred Jackson is a major depth addition for a Driver team that lost Knowshon Moreno to injury and is dealing with the ongoing Adrian Peterson situation; He immediately becomes a starter for the team, alongside Alfred Morris. DeAndre Hopkins is a downgrade from Garcon, but still a reliable WR3 that can be started without embarrassment. The McFlys raise their roof, and the Drivers plug their holes, textbook trade execution from two of the league's shrewder maneuverers. (That's probably not a real word.)
