I like to focus on the negative and not the positive..................also that was as completely different kind of trade that wasn't a I am more of a man then you I will offer you my 1st for yours! Ours was a straight deal swap 1st because we knew we would be better team so we threw in a player.ghostguy123 said:
In a start 1 QB league, Cook is surely worth Rodgers but Jones does tip the scale towards that side - even though I have my doubts on Jones.I like Cook a LOT but there's no way he's worth Rodgers...let alone another good player.
Huh ? How is Cook not work Rodgers ? You have this confused with triple starting QB's or something leagues ?I like Cook a LOT but there's no way he's worth Rodgers...let alone another good player.
Only time will tell. In 2014 Beckham could been had at 12 last year in a league of mine, in 2015 David Johnson could been had in all my leagues there and in 2017 Hunt and Kamara could been had at 12 in a lot of my leagues. Pick the right player and it's gold and may carry you into the playoffs as well it is just "projected top 5" no one really knows for sure.ghostguy123 said:
Well I play in 6pt/td leagues for all players. I would say it's closer if you do 4. But Rodgers has several years of potential #1 QB production left. Cook seems like an above average RB but Rodgers gives you a huge competitive advantage. He's the Gronk of QBs.
It seems like there should have been a much easier (and cheaper) way to get an injury plagued Eifert or a 36 year old Watson if he was desperate at TE. In all likelihood he gave away two very valuable assets and did not even solve his TE problem.
I’m sure Eifert was not the centerpeice of the trade for him. In this format (and all others) Coleman easily equals Henry if not > Henry (unless 2 PPR for TE which is unlikely). Parker/Eifert > Cohen. Not sure why any comments being made on Watson as he would have just been a throw in.
The guy who posted the trade said team did so because he needed help at TE - so that's why the comments pertained to the TEs.
If he officially gets a year I think you did good to get what you could but I'd have waited just in case he has a shot on an appeal, however slim.
I'll probably cut Stewart but his suspension (assuming there is one) has to be a minimum of a year. In FFPC he isn't eligible for IR and rosters are limited to 20 so any pick is better than the value he has left I think. Will anyone else sign this guy?? He isn't really elite so I'm not so sure.
He said TE was his only weakness and either guy should start for him. To me at least not the same as saying the trade was done primarily because he needed help there. Sure it sounds like he needed help there but Coleman was the most valuable piece in the deal imo. So while he gave away the best TE asset that assets value isn’t any greater than Coleman.
Yeah I know he definitely likes Coleman which I did too (was the one that traded him tho). I do see Henry as the best player in the deal tho and I've never liked Parker but was the best option in the dispersal draft at the time. I somewhat see Coleman vs Cohen more like Dr.O where they are fairly close. Coleman could gain a ton of value this offseason tho which is one reason I added him earlier this offseason. TE is 1.5 PPR and I agree neither of the ones I gave up are great but he had Jesse James, Ryan Griffin and Luke willison otherwise so while he may not of greatly improved he atleast got a somewhat better starter plus like jeaton said got a guy like Coleman that he really liked.
I'm not a big Collins guy and I still like this deal a lot for you. 1.12 and a future first for 1.4 is a bargain, and 2.12 and a third for 3.4 at best makes up the gap between fuller and a starting running back.
Seems like a fair trade to me and if you need RB and/or other team is set at RB and/or needs WR a real win for both teams.
Same team...
I shopped Thielen with no takers. This thread is curiously devoid of Thielen trades. I think owners have a much higher opinion of him than takers.IMHO, you could have and should have been able to receive more value for WR Thielen, and I don't think including RB Allen was anywhere close to necessary. Of course, you'll be fulfilling a fantasy by starting an almost all-rookie line-up in your attempt to emulate the Vegas Golden Knights and perform a "1st year playoff miracle". But what do I know . . . .
The other team needed a backup RB if he were to deal KJ. Allen isn't special imo, but he provides a better spot or bye week starter than R Kelly, and he's lost some confidence in Hyde.
I'm not sure you're wrong. But not by enough that adding a player that makes up the difference makes it worth haggling over. You're probably not going to start that guy anyway.
Ajayi12 tm, 2QB, 2TE, Devy, PPR
------------------
Gave: Ajayi
Got: Jamaal Williams, Edelman, 4th
-----------------
This is a deep league being start 2QB/TE and with devy included. The two main players in this trade are polarizing and I'm curious what everyone thinks. I assume everyone will jump on Ajayi. Hopefully there are some Williams believers like myself out there
Considering your RB 2 was Gore and you took over a team in dire need of a rebuild, it definitely works for you.
If it helps on Thielen, I was offered Thielen and the 1.2 this year for cmac and a 2019 2nd. 12 team qb/3wr/2rb/te/k/dt. I accepted.
Penny and Hopkins
Definitely fair - but for me, I'm not high on Penny for many reasons and Foreman coming off a torn achilles, much tougher injury to recover from, especially for a RB. I think one of Williams or Jones will have established themselves as the man by mid season, Meredith now has Brees throwing to him and the pick should be nothing worse than mid round so willing to take a risk.
I’m with you. I’ll take 1.1-1.6 next year over Penny. If it’s a playoff team it’s a bad deal for you though.
