Honestly I think people are overrating how good Brady will be this year. He is 38 years old and has lost a lot of his ability to push the ball down field. Thats not to say that he won't have a very good season, in fact I all but guarantee he will. However, there is no way I am going to say that he will be better than Luck. Luck has rare talent and is ridiculously young, the only concern I have is if the talent around him can do the work they need to. I think we see Luck with 40+ TD's and 4500+ yards, plus the rushing yards he gives you.
I am considering trading Murray with Edelman to try and get a more reliable back. I'm much less worried about Murray than you guys are. Sure the Dallas line was amazing last year, but Murray is still a very good player. I am most concerned about his health. Murray has a long injury history, and while we are on that matter, so does Julio Jones. Julio having hamstring issues does concern me. I played wing in rugby while in college and hamstring problems kept me sidelined for a lot of my career. There really is no way to heal your hamstring during the season. Even if starts as a minor injury, they get much worse as a season goes on. This was not a major factor in me getting rid of Julio, but I will say if you own him then you will want to keep an eye on him.
-Brady has shown 0 regression at this point. Just saying because he is 38 he won't be the same guy he was last year is nuts.
- luck has a horrible line and a #1 wr who is injured and a hb who is washed up.
-Murray is constantly hurt and relies on downhill running. I don't foresee the east west running setup in philly to work for him.
- every major wr has a hamstring issue right now. ODB came back from it fine last year. You manage by giving rest during the week which they have.
I just don't think it was a good move. Based on what you have said you just like churning your roster (which is fine) but in this one you lost.
