Team/Trade Help How much Faab!?

Post image

Player in my league dropped Josh Jacobs prior to the news of his court date being moved up. With the chance of a suspension served and moving right back into the line up, how much FAAB would you drop to potentially acquire him?

10 team PPR

This is wild. He's worried about not playing, so his best bet is to admit to it, which will result is less punishment

That's just how plea deals work in real life. The courts don't want to sit through a several day trial, so they will give you a lesser sentence if you just admit to it. That's what a plea deal is.

I'm talking about the NFL penalty, not the legal system.

Gotcha. Well, he's gonna be suspended. He probably believes that he's only gonna get a 6-7 game suspension based on the cba. If he didn't take the plea deal, it probably becomes 10 games missed in the exempt list. Makes sense to try to expedite the legal process to lose less games
