I agree, to early to tell, but I got the best player in the deal, period. Don't need the baggage of Mathews and Wallace.'MrMoo32 said:To early to tell on this trade IMO... Depends where wallace goes and who coaches Mathews next season... personally i prefer that side of the trade though.'meroj said:Gave Mathews/Wallace Received Cobb/1.8 rookie
This one depends on the roster of the team receiving Cobb, if they are deep at running back and Cobb will be the number 2 receiver I like the deal a lot. If Wallace and Matthews were 2 of the better players on this team I would have held them and tried to trade them in their own deals to get picks and younger players and go into full rebuild mode.I agree, to early to tell, but I got the best player in the deal, period.

Good buy low on Nelson. I actually like all three players in the trade. I just think Nelson is a guy who will put up elite numbers when healthy.Team A Gives Jordy NelsonTeam B Gives Lamar Miller/Emmanual Sanders
I think both of these deals are pretty lopsided in favor of Cobb and rice.Two trades in my dynasty league this week, one of which I was involved in.Team AVick Ballard, IndMichael Vick, PhiJordy Nelson, GBDaryl Richardson, StLTeam BRay Rice, BalDonnie Avery, IndColin Kaepernick, SFLaMichael James, SFI was no involved in this trade although I would rather be the team getting Ray Rice. He's clearly the best player involved. GaveStevan Ridley, NEGotRandall Cobb, GBI got Cobb in this deal and I think its actually a pretty fair trade but I always tend to lean towards the WRs over the RBs in dynasty since they have longer careers. Its also a PPR which helps Cobb.

Boom.Exactly the way owners that have built dominant rosters should think.'SSOG said:It really depends on team makeup. If my team is pretty good and his is pretty bad, I don't make that trade. The margin between pretty good and pretty bad is never as large as it seems. Pretty good teams often find guys like Stevie Johnson all that's standing between them and starting Eddie Royal. That's too much to give for such a crapshoot. On the other hand, if my team is dominant, I make that trade in a heartbeat. I have one league where I've got Demaryius, Harvin, Cobb, Fitz, Austin, and Britt. I'm stacked at all other positions, too. If my 6th was a Steve Johnson type (dependable, low ceiling) instead of Britt (high ceiling lottery ticket), that's exactly the type of deal I'd be looking to make. Trade a guy with no hope of cracking your lineup for a huge-upside lottery ticket. If you're really confident in your team's strength (and that's key- it's hard to be objective about your own team), then pull the trigger. Suddenly that move becomes low-downside, high-upside. Besides, NFL #1s on bad passing teams tend to be overrated. You can get the same production for a fraction of the cost from guys like Lance Moore, instead.'Coeur de Lion said:No need to be a tool.Also agree that it's pretty hard to project the position of 2014 draft picks as of January 2013. An injury or two can easily turn that late 1st into a high pick, and I've seen a ton of "worst team in the league on paper" type squads make the playoffs or win titles.Steve Johnson isn't likely to be a fantasy WR1 anytime soon, but he is a young guy that should be a solid everyweek WR2 or WR3 starter moving forward. That seems like alot to give up on the hope that next year's fantasy season plays out the way you'd project a year in advance.'MrMoo32 said:i guess we just have different strategy for dynasty leagues... Im in 4 dynasty leagues and won 2 of them so i think my strategy is working. No need to bash people cause we disagree.'JohnnyU said:How can you say that and not even know what his team looks like? Maybe some owners should stick to redraft leagues.'MrMoo32 said:Def a gamble, just not one id be willing to take. :/

I don't need Dalton, but I didn't need Shorts either. With the uncertainty in Jax, and maybe Tebow going there with a whack offense, I was pretty happy getting a top 20 dynasty QB for him. If nothing else Dalton would be great trade bait if someone loses a QB next year.'MrMoo32 said:Why do you need Dalton if you have Rodgers?'matttyl said:10 team non PPR league, start 1 QB.Gave C Shorts, got Andy Dalton (already have Rodgers)
If you are getting him to trade later then i think good deal, But i do like shorts alot. not sure id want to give him up even if Tebow is the QB next season.I don't need Dalton, but I didn't need Shorts either.

Ask any longtime Roethlisberger owner what you can get for guys like that.Middle of the road QB1/QB2's are never great trade bait in start 1-QB leagues.

I'm not the biggest Flacco fan, but I'd take the Flacco side all day. I think Vick is done, or at best 1-2 years away. He can't read defenses and if he gets 1 more concussion he won't play again (IMHO).Michael Vick for Joe Flacco.
Just got a 2014 1st for him from the owner of this year's 1.04 pick. Happy with it.Ask any longtime Roethlisberger owner what you can get for guys like that.Middle of the road QB1/QB2's are never great trade bait in start 1-QB leagues.
While RBs have less value in start 1 RB leagues, the value of the top RBs is pretty close to what it is start 2 RB leagues IMO. So, since Spiller is on just about everyone's top 10 list, I don't think his value takes much of a hit in this league format.That said, hell of a deal for Team A. Fitzgerald and Jeffery are talented players, but both have question marks about their short term future. Fitzgerald has to get a legitimate QB throwing to him and that should happen eventually, but how long do you have to wait? I like Jeffery and there is no reason that he and Marshall can't both put up good fantasy numbers, but we haven't really seen that yet.Team A got: SpillerTeam B got: Fitzgerald & Jefferyonly 1 RB mandatory, very flexible lineups

If Cutler is so terrible, how do explain that Marshall finished no worse than Top 3 among WRs is just about every league format? And Cutler has had 3 offensive coordinators in the last 4 years, none of which I thought really played to his strengths. If the new team in Chicago opens up the offense a bit, Marshall and Jeffery could both be fantasy viable. Not saying that Cutler is that great, only that he is not as horrible as his critics contend.Actually there is his name is Jay CutlerWhile RBs have less value in start 1 RB leagues, the value of the top RBs is pretty close to what it is start 2 RB leagues IMO.

In 2008 Calvin Johnson had 78 catches for 1331 yards and 12 touchdowns. I don't know exactly where that ranks him fantasy scoring for receivers that year, but I am sure it is top 10. His quarterbacks were Drew Stanton, Daunte Culpepper, and Dan Orlovsky. Cutler isn't nearly as bad as them, but don't act like bad quarterback play means that you can't have one good fantasy receiver, in almost all cases though you can't have two.If Cutler is so terrible, how do explain that Marshall finished no worse than Top 3 among WRs is just about every league format?

Larry Fitzgerald would disagree with you on that. And I don't buy your premise that Cutler is a terrible QB among the lines of Stanton, Orlovsky and a has-been Culpepper. He has a cannon arm and although unlikely could bounce back big time with the right OC. We will have to agree to disagree on this.In 2008 Calvin Johnson had 78 catches for 1331 yards and 12 touchdowns.

I highly duobt that. Dynasty owners are always chasing starting 3-down RB's. By summer time Murray hype will be in full effect and Blackmon's QB situation and the emergence of Shorts will both possibly hurt his value.

The first is entirely subjective, and i disagree. but that doesn't matter much. The second is something that dynasty owners as a group have proven to ignore again and again in the pursuit young, starting 3-down RB's. The potential reward is too great. I can see the argument for Blackmon, especially if team needs dictate it as well. But my argument is that Murray's ADP will continue to be higher than Blackmon's. I don't see a great argument against it.But Murray isn't that good, and is injury prone to boot. I would rather have Blackmon by a wide margin.
Of course it does, when you're talking about ADP data from thousands of leagues.But it's only representative of their value relative to each other during a brief snapshot of time. In already existing leagues, team make-up and each individual owners' valuations obviously effect value long-term. But those things are already taken into account during the brief time period that ADP data covers, in a way.That doesn't mean Murray is actually more valuable.
What I'm saying is that just because he's picked higher doesn't mean he's worth more. A year ago Doug Martin was being picked behind Darren McFadden. Who was more valuable?I make trades according to how I expect the players to perform going forward, not based on what they're rated at this exact moment in time. I think Blackmon has a better future than Murray, so I'd rather have him in a trade despite what some random ADP info might say.Of course it does, when you're talking about ADP data from thousands of leagues.But it's only representative of their value relative to each other during a brief snapshot of time.
