12 team PPR, 1.5 for TEs

Team A gets: Charles, Wheaton

Team B gets: 1.03, Vereen, Latimer, ASJ

 

[maxhyde]

Zealots Field league trade (non-PPR).

Can start 1-3 RBs, 2-5 WRs.

Traded Michael Crabtree

Received Roy Helu

My current RBs (after the trade):

Matt Asiata

Gio Bernard

Roy Helu

Doug Martin

Bobby Rainey

Theo Riddick

Bishop Sankey

Charles Sims

Jordan Todman

My current WRs (after trade):

Antonio Brown

Larry Fitzgerald

AJ Green

Devin Hester

Vincent Jackson

Alshon Jeffery

Jarvis Landry

Brandon Lloyd

Sammy Watkins

I also have the 1.02, 1.03, 1.05, 1.11 and 2.11 rookie picks.

While, in a vacuum, I think Crabtree is better, I like Helu for me in this as my RBs are really deficient as a group. I think Helu has the potential (and skillset) to be a starting RB as I feel he's a fairly complete RB. For the group of WRs I have, I felt Crabtree was (at best) my WR6; further, I figure to get Amari Cooper in the rookie draft, so there's yet another WR who would be over Crabtree.

I like Helu for that.

Crabtree has looked pretty awful the past couple of years with nagging injuries. Hopefully moving on from Kaep will re-energize him

Is it safe to say yet that it is officially the time to buy Mccoy??

From what we are seeing I would say so

Some interesting trades from one of my leagues: (14 team, PPR, 1.5 for TE, 1/2/3/1 w/ 3 flex)

12 team dynasty PPR

Team B gets Eric Decker, pick 1.4, 2.4, 2016 2nd rounder

McCoy and I like Decker

12 team PPR, 1.5 for TEs

Team A gets: Charles, Wheaton

Team B gets: 1.03, Vereen, Latimer, ASJ

Could go either way on this one

 

[maxhyde]

I prefer the 1.05, but I'm quite low on Benjamin.

Makes sense. A huge rookie receiver that just put up 1k yds and 9 tds as rookie is reason to be low on. I'm sure that 1.5 will yield a rookie receiver that will far exceed that in his first season....

Twenty-five WRs had more than 120 targets last year. Benjamin's rank among them in

targets: 7th

targets/game: 9th

yards/target: 23rd

yards/game: 20th

I expect that someone better than Jerricho Cotchery will be playing WR for Carolina next year. If Benjamin is anywhere near as inefficient as he was in 2014, he won't rank 7th in targets again.

So he was inefficient for a rookie having to play as a true #1 WR in the NFL with coverage rolled his way most of the time?

I can live with that.

I guess the 1.05 could be White/Parker/DGB so I could see someone liking them more but I will stick with Benjamin and hope he improves some

[Bamac]

Not saying Benjamin is garbage, but the 1.05 is basically guaranteed to be a top-3 WR from this class. All Benjamin has shown is that he can put up decent numbers when he's bombarded with targets. That's something, but it's not enough to move him above 1.05 for me.

I was team A. Needed a stud RB and Charles still has a solid 2-3 good years left. I essentially really only care about giving up the 1.03. The other 3 pieces don't hold a lot of value to me.

And being a top 3 WR from this class is no guarantee they will be fantasy relevant, ever.

Benjamin has showed "as a very raw ROOKIE" that he can put up numbers as the clear top target on a team with a fairly average throwing QB.

His efficiency numbers might worry me if he was 26 and been in the league a few years. Not as a rookie.

If anything, if they get another actual legit WR to play with him, his overall targets might go down a little, but his efficiency numbers should go up (both because he will improve, and also get more quality targets).

SO far to me it looks like Mccoy and Benjamin are the guys to buy this year. Benjamin actually surprises me. It's almost like people barely value him higher than they did last year, and he just did what he did, where he did it, how he did it.

Seems like a massive overpayment for Charles.

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic. I expect people to hate this trade for me as I'm the one receiving Beckham. I'm fine with it though. I got the guy I wanted most and this is also my favorite league. Not huge money but my most active league. I'll take the "loss" to get my guy any day.

And if that is the case, then it is not really an overpay to move up from Jeffrey to Beckham and give up the 1.09 (which usually busts more than succeeds) plus some late 2016 pick which may or not be valuable.

Whether either of the firsts busts is irrelevant. They still have significant value, in particular before they are used to select a player.

Charles will play this year at 28. Never been heavily abused (like Murray this year). I think he still has 2-3 top shelf years left. The other 3 guys were buried on my depth chart. Not saying I just gave them away, but just the 1.03 itself wasn't going to get it done. Vereen is difficult to count on from week to week. Latimer is just a prospect at this point (and I have Julio, Jordy, Cobb, Watkins, A-Rob and Fitz at WR). I may have been able to get away without including either Latimer or ASJ, but it was doubtful.
