I like Watkins better than Evans by enough I would think about it more but still likely go with DT
Could pay off in a big way, could also blow up in your face. I also doubt any owner is going to buy high then sell low to you later in the season. I think if you're going to sell on him it's in August, I'm willing to bet then you can get a kings ransom for him. Even if you're not big on him, wait till August then start shopping. Can probably get at least 25% more value in August when the redraft mills start heating up a lot on top of the dynasty rumor mills.
This seems like a beautiful trade. Exactly the type of trades I like to make, pure value and selling high on this years draft class.
Agreed. If that 1st next year is Top 4, you get a chance at a potential great QB or RB.
I don't mean to buy sell to and buy from the same owner--that can be tricky. But, in general, I think now is a very big sell high point, and I expect the buzz to cool a bit in season. Other young guys will join the conversation, and I don't expect Patterson to meet the crazy expectations right away.
Heck it could be number 1. He's got a really weak roster. Who are the big studs coming out next year? I don't follow college much.
Mariota, Winston, Petty, Hundley at QB; about 5 RBs, with Gurley being the cream; and the WR class is still up in the air at the moment.
That is what I am doing. I have 1.1 (will be Watkins), 1.8, 1.9 and 5 2nds. I will load up on WR this year (unless solid RB's fall) and get by on RB until I can reload there next year.Would you advise a pretty stacked team to load up on wideouts this year? I have the 5, 9,11,12 picks this season still and two firsts next year. I was thinking Watkins or Evans, then maybe Hyde, Sankey, Cooks, Beckham, Ebron (whoever falls really). I am weakest at RB with Alfred Morris penciled in alongside ADP. I do own Lattimore so Hyde is appealing at 5 but I just tend to think Sankey is better and in a better spot.
Draft in 9 hours ....
Too tough to tell this far out. This is the deepest WR class in a very long time, and we really only saw Watkins coming (of the guys who met the hype based on NFL draft position). There are plenty of guys who could end up being Evans, Cooks, Beckham level prospects this time next year.Would you advise a pretty stacked team to load up on wideouts this year?

Concept Coop hit it on the head here. I would revel in the chance to get Mariota, Winston, Gurley or Gordon. Amari Cooper is a good WR as well.
OK, Team A made another trade during the draft and also made a couple prior trades in March. So I thought it would be interesting to catalog all of the trades and the way it has changed his roster.bostonfred said:
Not only did he get Thomas, but also likely got a decent player at 2.08 and still has the 3.02.
I like Graham side by a lot, despite the current roster.
Your hand was forced in May?
I'm a big Fitz guy, so perhaps I'm not the most objective on the subject, but I really don't like it for you. West is a solid prospect, but he's in a messy situation. He has Tate and Crowell to compete with for touches, in an offense that isn't likely to score a lot of points.
Yeah, it may have been a panic move. But the league isn't that active and you have to take what you can get from time to time.
I have the 5, 9, 11, 12 and 29.
For fun, let's take pieces individually and break it down that way:
I think it's pretty fair. I like VJax over Fitz so that helps some with having to give up the extra WR.
I would not do this, especially with next year's strong RB class. If anything Hyde is likely going to sit this year anyway so if the guys you would draft next year end up in starting roles they could be taking the field as a starter at the same time anyway.
In most formats, I'd pass. In a 10 team, start 2 QB--I think it's reasonable to roll the dice on the pick.
Lol what got you sent to the penalty box?I'm so jacked today. I'm back from fbg timeout and my draft is tonight.
I don't mind the trade for you. I like VJ more than Fitz, so I think it's about even.
I like VJax over Fitz as well but I like Hilton way better than 2.5. The last time we saw Hilton he had 13 catches for 224 yards and 2 TDs, followed by another 103 the following week in two postseason games. He's the incumbent #1 and will be catching passes from a true stud QB for his entire career. He's got Marvin Harrison potential, but at a minimum he's an emerging WR2 with some WR1 seasons ahead of him.
Every player is inconsistent but I do understand what you're saying.
That might be true. But like I said before, I felt I had enough remaining talent after the trade that I could get the same from someone else.
