If that's what the market believes, then I suppose.
Love both these trades. Not a big fan of Miller but he holds a lot of trade value (as you've illustrated).
Not sure I agree. Cruz is a long-term WR1 and a year ago was cracking many people's top-5 rankings. Maybe I'm misremembering, and it was top-10 rankings. But still, he's in my top-10. You'd have to be a big Miller believer to call it a "steal".
I Agree. Not that Miller and Randle aren't good prospects, but I don't see how this is a "steal" for Miller and Randle. I'll take the Cruz side.meyerj31 said:
I do think Colston can be more consistent (especially year to year so far), but I thought getting one of A-Rod's targets while getting a couple years younger could work out very well for me. With Jennings gone, and assuming Jordy is healthy I think he will be just fine. Colston might be seen as more consistent, but he had some HUGE 30 and 40 point games last season and then had a few games where he only caught a 2-4 balls and 40-60 yards. Most of his games he ended up scoring around 7-14 points for me when I needed more from him, and in the end it wasn't enough. With Jennings gone, I think Nelson will put up the same numbers or better as Colston will (as long as he can stay healthy).
I have him just outside my top 10, but the steal in my eyes is because I am high on Miller and Randle. By week 8 in 2014 I think Randle and Cruz will be equal, add in a top 20 back and that is just icing on the cake.meyerj31 said:
I don't disagree but there are maybe a dozen trades a year in this league, if that. Nobody wants to move anyone.
I am the Gordon side. Surprised by the "a lot". I really don't have much faith in Brown doing anything special with his opportunity this season and what's not to like about Gordon other than his off the field stuff which the NFL continues to prove doesn't really mean much? The difference between these two being Ben Tate is a pretty easy call for me - though I should note that it's a 10 team start 1 RB 1 WR and 3 flex so studs are what you need. I think I got the potential stud in the deal though I concede Brown and or Tate could also become the studs, I just have less faith in that happening.
He plays in Cleveland for now and one more hiccup and it will be at least an 8 game ban probably a year. So give me the guy with a 1000 yard season already under his belt and a possible starting back next year.
I love Miller as much as anyone but that seems like a ton to give up for him and two below average prospects, if you could even call Cook a prospect
Yeah this is too much IMO, H should have gotten more in return (or given up less). What has Miller proven to cost that much?
SJax trade could be win/win if it puts the receiving team over the top. Can't imagine any scenario where I wouldn't want Blackmon in the second deal.
1 PPR. Start 2 RB's and 3 WR's.Donsmith753 said:
So you move down 7 spots and trade Randle for 59th rookie pick?
That is cheap for Peterson. Basically Murray and a future 1 for ADP (though the throw ins are weaker on the ADP side).
I traded down 7 spots and gave up the 48th pick for Randle. Made sense to me.
I can buy it too...I traded down 7 spots and gave up the 48th pick for Randle. Made sense to me.
Great for you, we're saying the other guy is a fool.I traded down 7 spots and gave up the 48th pick for Randle. Made sense to me.
By this time in August you will be able to get a 2014 first for him, from some one buying the hype and he will never have even played a downGreat for you, we're saying the other guy is a fool.I traded down 7 spots and gave up the 48th pick for Randle. Made sense to me.

Good catch I meant never played a down this seasonConnSKINS26 said:Never played a down?msudaisy26 said:By this time in August you will be able to get a 2014 first for him, from some one buying the hype and he will never have even played a downcstu said:Great for you, we're saying the other guy is a fool.Andrew74 said:I traded down 7 spots and gave up the 48th pick for Randle.
