Totally shocked by the bolded, I respect your opinion but that's just crazy talk.
Seriously thought it was a pretty even trade but I'd lean your side. I thought Kerryon looked tremendous last year, but his upright running style and fairly thin build does worry me about his ability to remain healthy plus you got a coach trying to be Bellichick Jr and impact that might have on his usage. All in all I'd put Kerryon equal to Guice, I'd take Parris over Robinson and then of course the slight pick upgrade. So I lean your side but an equitable trade IMO.
FFPC:
Gave: Darrell Henderson
Got: Hockenson
I had got shut out on Hockenson on my rookie drafts so was happy to see this offer. Position wise it makes no sense for my team since I'm fairly thin at RB and have an army of TE's but my team is not a contender so for this year not worrying about positions, just trying add as much long term talent as I can.

Where were they drafted. Seems odd to do this trade at this point for the person who drafted first.

Traded Dalvin Cook + Pettis + 1.02 for Barkley + 2.12 + 3.14.
Honestly, I dont like the trade, but i know I can get more for Barkley, like maybe a new house. How long should I wait to put him on the block, just for the purpose of not being rude?

Hockenson went 4th and Henderson 10th which I agree is odd but I think I can explain it in a way that makes some sense.
Team I traded with is someone I have draft conversations with during off-season, Henderson has been his #1 RB for months. When he picked Hockenson at 4 it was 2 weeks ago ago. Maybe he thought or tried to get back into round one to get Henderson but what he could not have known for sure was he'd later draft Irv Smith, Oliver and even Darren Waller to go with Ebron/Herndon. So he ended up more flush at TE then he probably originally thought.
So that draft was two weeks ago and we were in another draft together last week. In that draft he went ahead and just took Henderson at 4 when Hockenson was available so he'd reached he point a week later where he clearly felt more comfortable taking Henderson over Hockenson.

Why on earth wouldn’t you like this trade? You got the number 1 dynasty asset for a bit of decent stuff.

The more I think about it, the better I feel. Barkely is probably the most valuable dynasty assett ever.
I'm still going to trade him though.

So you gave an rb who struggled with injuries, a guy who'll be the second wr on his team and the second pick in a weak draft for the best player in fantasy football and picks. And you're complaining.
Some people can't ever be happy I guess.
cloppbeast
Footballguy
I'd rather have what I can get for him. Maybe the #5 dynasty asset + whatever.
You are making me out to be an ingrate, but oh well. Why, because we disagree on a few players?
I wasnt really complaining so much either, just dont agree with the Barkley's extreme value. I'm also high on Cook and Miles Sanders (#2 pick). But he since he threw in the 2.12 and 3.14, I couldnt say no.
ghostguy123
Footballguy
I would very much look to trade him also. However, it will be hard to do so because I doubt someone pays what you need.
I wonder if the other guy shopped him at all? The other owners will probably be ticked off that he either sold Barkley cheap without shopping him, or maybe he took a worse offer than what they were offering. I dont think people will be lining up with godfather offers

He was trying to buy dalvin cook for a bunch of dollar store toys. I sent cook + 1.02 for barkley as a counter, really just trying to be funny. He came back with cook + 1.02 + Pettis.
So yeah, I dont know he was shopping Barkley. I guess he really likes cook. I feel like I took advantage of him.

You pay your money and you take your chances. What are you supposed to do when someone makes you lopsided offer? It’s not like you went out making a bunch of garbage offers. In fact it was the opposite and you somehow flipped the grift on him.He was trying to buy dalvin cook for a bunch of dollar store toys. I sent cook + 1.02 as a counter, really just trying to be funny. He came back with cook + 1.02 + Pettis.

I'd take Barkley easily there but it isn't the worst deal we've seen.He was trying to buy dalvin cook for a bunch of dollar store toys. I sent cook + 1.02 for barkley as a counter, really just trying to be funny. He came back with cook + 1.02 + Pettis.

Let's me ask a question of ediquitte: how soon can I start shopping him? I plan to flip barkely, but I would feel really bad moving him immediately.
Snorkelson
Footballguy
It’s hard, because you can’t exactly go on the message board and say “I sent a counter to his repeated lowball offers on cook, and he countered with that.” I’d maybe pm owners with players you like asking if they have any interest and how the trade came about.

I don’t see much reason to make a deal like this now - it could backfire terribly and it would likely still be available to you (or something close) even during the draft next year.
Dr. Octopus
Footballguy
I don’t see how there can be any etiquette concerns with flipping him right away. It’s your right since he’s now your asset. The guy should in theory be happy with his deal so why should he care what happens to Barkley next?
Dr. Octopus
Footballguy
I’ve seen people make deals and then post the player (or one of the players) they acquired is “available”. I’ve never seen any blowback on that practice. I try to play this game as ethically as possible and don’t see the issue with immediately flipping a guy you just acquired. I’ve never done it but that’s only because I usually want to guys I acquire.

And then you asked for more?? Wtf...He was trying to buy dalvin cook for a bunch of dollar store toys. I sent cook + 1.02 for barkley as a counter, really just trying to be funny. He came back with cook + 1.02 + Pettis.

I asked him about the deal he said he thinks he can compete this year for a playoff spot. So if he turns it around and his pick ends up 11-16 then it makes it more even.
If he does poor again and ends up a top 6 pick then I feel really great about the trade because this draft was going sideways for me.
I came into the draft with picks 5, 19, 21, 22, 24, 26, 37 and basically everyone I wanted has gone in the top 17 so by the time we even get to 22 I will have drafted 2 of the last remaining guys I really like and would been in the tier of guys I only like ok. So even if the future 1st is middling it won't be so bad to me.

I agree with your main point, but at the same time it doesn't eliminate the possibility of Thomas becoming a relevant asset. When I look at Norv's history I see a talent focused approach: If a player has the talent the ball will find him. When Norv had a player of Gates caliber TE was a focus of the offense. When he didn't the ball went elsewhere. What we know today is that Olsen has chronic foot issues and only been able to play 50% of the time L2Y. We also know that it generally takes TEs a few years to establish themselves in the league. Thomas showed improvement throughout the year culminating in 3 double digit games in the last quarter of the season.
I like Thomas' chances to become a relevant fantasy asset. It may take a year but in context of the bleak TE landscape I think he is worthwhile risk.

If you like that one then how about the 14 team PPR where I sent Golden Tate and a 2020 2nd, (likely late) for DJ Moore.
I just really believe someone needs to step up in that offense and I believe it’s Moore.

And if that 3rd is the 3.1 (extremely likely if you see this dude’s roster) and my 2nd is a 2.9 to 2.12? I made the deal since I think I moved down 5-6 picks at most to gain 3 free dart throws.

Just traded away Doctson for Bears D in one of my PPR dynasty leagues. 
I had to cut someone to pickup a defense so felt it was the only move I had to make. Can't decide if I'm smart or if I make Forest Gump look like a genius. On the plus side (even if I am an idiot) I have one hell of a roster in my 12 team league:
Luck, Winston
Zeke, Gurley, Fournette, D. Freeman, Lindsay, Henderson, Justice Hill
Hopkins, Evans, Hill, Julio, Deebo Samuel, Hollywood Brown, JJAW, Hardman, Diontae Johnson, Callaway
Kelce, Engram
Bears D
By the first week of the regular season I'll have to cut someone (or trade) for a kicker. Real world problems I tells ya....
