Maybe. I'm personally a big Funchess believer, but he's no sure thing and I'm stacked at WR (like 5 top-8 WR's stacked). The 2nds are nothing, they are more like 3rds in a non-devy league. And the devy pick is a premium asset, probably the most valuable thing I gave up, but requires lots of patience and some luck.Gio, as the Hill owner, has a lot of value to my roster. For one, it's like insurance for my Hill stock, because Hill was literally my only startable RB.
So it was an expensive price to pay for a handcuff, but when you take into consideration that Gio is startable on his own as well, I think it was a strong move to bolster the depth and flexibility of a roster coming off a championship.
And putting aside whatever you or I think of Gio personally, which skews the perception of this deal obviously, on pure value I think this was not too much of an overpay. Especially taking Funchess' controversial value into account, I just traded a bunch of question marks for a guy still being ranked, in most places, as a top-10 or top-12 dynasty RB, who is only 23, Hill or no Hill.

I was the side getting Gurley here. Turned the 2.02 into a pair of devys, TE Bucky Hodges and RB Devontae Booker.
It comes out as a slight loss in my own trade value numbers but Dorsett is my favorite rookie (think he's way undervalued) and Gurley fits my roster better than Jeffery did.

16 team ppr.
Traded John Brown, 1.10, 2.16, 9th round pick in the vet draft (equal to about a mid 2nd rookie pick) for JJ Watt. Watt was the 4th highest scoring non QB last season

Green side for me, but its not awful on the other side.

Your argument is sound. It makes sense for your team contextually if your wr core is as good as you say. My opinion of gio is just that he is never gonna be a workhorse guy (which is rare nowadays i know) so i devalue him slightly. But he might be a top 3 handcuff if hill goes down, and like you said, startable on his own (some weeks), so i see your side of the deal.ConnSKINS26 said:

Cooks
I will take Jeffery but I do like Dorsett/Gurley
TY and the picks
That deep of devy's picks I will still take Hunter and the 1st.
I would pay that for Gio but I am not a big Funchess guy

Yes. AJG for me too
Probably rather have Gronk side myself but I think Luck is a safer asset long term

Having Julius Thomas and now Cameron I felt I was ok at te and could afford to give up gronk for luck

Pretty much even on value so it just comes down to roster construction in terms of Gronk vs. Luck.
I personally think that is stealing for the side getting AJ Green in the other deal. Those 2nd year players are always overrated at this point in the process and people are forgetting just how ridiculously talented Green is due to the fact he was hurt most of last season (playing through injury and not himself even when he did play). That trade could look pretty ugly a year or two down the road for the guy trading Green.

I was going to take Dorsett or D.Henry, if I kept the pick. So I liked it as well.

I'd lean this way as well because I like Cooper more than Cooks and Abdullah is close enough to Parker. Cooks situation is fantastic in the short-term as Brees' clear #1 but that won't last forever as Brees is getting old and super expensive. These are 4 great young players though so can't go too wrong either way and it's a really interesting trade.

I am higher on cooks then cooper and Abdullah is a wild card, id always rather get the stud wr over rb in dynasty.

Give me Spiller in this one. Especially in PPR, but even in non. He is finally in an offense that will use him right, and playing almost all of his games on turf where his speed will kill.

Agreed. Definitely Alshon.

yup, Cooks is decent but never had a 100 yard game last season. He's good, but doesn't have top 10 WR potential.
Alshon has been there and done it, plus he's still young.

Cooks had as many 100 yard games as a rookie as Alshon.

In a 2-QB league I think I'd take Russ here.Footdude said:

I think I'd take the chance on Bradford here for the other side. Couple of nice picks, Bradford hasn't looked bad or anything when playing, just the injury bug. If he can get over that this could be a nice set-up for the future. If you're optimistic about Bradford like I am.

This one just went down:
12 team PPR league. Start QRRWWWT
Team A gives up:
1.03 (projected to be Cooper as word from owners of picks 1.01 and 1.02 to go Gurley/Gordon)
1.04
B. Cooks
P. Rivers
J. Gordon
L. Murray
Andre Williams
Team B gives up:
Calvin Johnson
TY Hilton
T. Romo
2.01
2016 2nd
Team A has Matt Ryan, ODB and Mike Evans already. leaves him a little thin at RB depth (Lacy, Miller then nothing else really)
Team B was getting a lot older and already has Cam Newton

12 Team, Tiered PPR/TE Premium, 2QB-1RB/WR/TE-4FL. Rookie/Devy League:
Gave: 2016 3rd (late), Marvin Jones
Received: 2016 2nd (was 2.02 this year)
Gave: 2016 3rd, Stevie Johnson
Received: 2016 2nd
May have been able to get a 2nd straight up in-season, but I am rebuilding this roster and moving anything that isnt nailed down for youth/picks. Now have a 1/1/1/1/1/1/1/2/2/2/2/3 for 2016.
