Maroney a good buy low candidate??

Question

With L. Maroney - RB (NE) being out for the past few weeks and slow production prior, would he be a good buy low candidate?

With Morris out for around a month and with his talent, I'm thinking that he will rebound in a big way over the last half of the season and this could be prime time to get him as owners have lost faith in him by now. What do you think? Thanks!

Answer 1

This is a tough call.

With Morris out and Maroney healthy again, he'll obviously get the bulk of the carries. If there's a rushing TD to be scored, it will be done by Maroney, at least until the game is out of hand. The risk in any deal with Maroney is that you don't know how many scoring chances he'll get, because the Pats seem to throw on any down at any location on the field, including inside their opponents' 10-yard-line.

If you can get him on the cheap, it's probably worth it. But, I wouldn't give up a valuable piece of my team to get him at this point.

Answer 2

He is definitely a buy low candidate depending on your definition of low. It may be a tricky trade to pull off, but you should give it a shot.
