It has been trending a little more this way every year for quite some time now.
Not so sure about this. In my leagues Hopkins value has plummeted. I have been laughed at with the following offers:
But I think Hopkins owners won't accept those low ball offers. There seems to be a big hole between the value his owners see for him and the value others will pay for him.
10 teams, Super flex, 22 man rosters, non PPR but points for first downs rushing/receiving, 56 RBs and 68 WRs currently rosteredFF Ninja said:
Right, he's kind of in that no man's land that assets get trapped in sometimes. His owners still want full or near full value, but people buying want to buy at a discount, so he ends up just being a hold.
I'm going to post some mid-season dynasty rankings in a week or so that I've been tinkering with. As of now the order I have them ranked are as follows.
Well, I probably will be different from what most others would do.
This is how I see it, as well. Those looking to acquire Nuk are looking at this season and thinking "buy low" but it's only 6 games and his target numbers are solid still so owners aren't selling cheap.
This pains me because I highly debated drafting Godwin in a couple leagues, but...
1. Hopkins. I think the current dip is temporary and he has the rare situation of being a proven stud paired with an elite QB
I'm just one data point (no idea where popular opinion falls), but I would not trade a late 2020 1st for Gordon. Too many nice rookies out there, not that many landing spots... I just don't know what's ahead for him as a FA. He'll be 27 next year and I suspect he's one of the many RBs that just disappear after their age 28 season. As for his 2019 "rental" value, it seems pretty low right now with Ekeler taking so many snaps/targets.
Middle first I would say. Maybe I’ve bought into this being great class too much and don’t like Gordon enough though.
This is why I stopped doing Dynasty leagues a few years back honestly. Not many moves to be made these days.
You missed the point. When I was first doing mfl Dynasty leagues it was great. Everyone would be open to making deals and having fun. But then it seemed to change and good solid vets were basically worthless.
If you think picks are overvalued and vets are undervalued, then why aren't you just loading up on vets and winning your leagues over and over again?
It’s probably fair, but I would pass personally. This coming draft class feels a bit like the 2016 class, in terms of depth. Even late 1st round picks are going to be quite valuable. This might help you in the meantime, but will look bad come the offseason.
This has been my experience this year, but I think it’s due to the draft class hype. I’ve gathered that Thielen, Mixon, Gordon and Diggs can’t return a first round pick in my leagues.
Late 1st for Henry.
You could be right, in general. I'd trade him for a late 1st if I owned him, however.
Conversely, I don't think you'll find many people willing to pay more than that for him.
Given the ppr, the fact that you’re strong at WR, and that you’re a competitor now I like DJ.
They’re pretty even. With those two RBs it wouldn’t hurt to get DJ.
I’m not sold, personally. Last week was promising - and there’s certainly potential there - but he hasn’t won me over yet. I think Henderson is in the same ballpark, in terms of value. I could see myself preferring either guy depending on my roster. In a vacuum I think Henderson is more likely to be a top 24 dynasty asset one day, while Davis is more likely to stick long term. If I’m in a position to gamble on upside, I’d go with Henderson. If my WR core is lacking, I’d probably play it safe with Davis.
As the guy who made the offer for Davis, I find myself very torn to be honest. Davis and I have such history where I bought in high in his rookie draft and held for a long, long time ... and finally punted this year. And it looked like the right decision until last week. Now I’m wondering if the problem really was Mariota or if that’s much too linear to be the actual solution.
Henderson was extremely disappointing to the point where I'm considering selling where I own him while his value is still somewhat high.
I agree - the next week or two will tell us a lot about Davis (and Henderson).
Top15 for Chark? No chance I'm buying that high. Nice breakout, but I need more from that offense in general to trust a top15 guy.
If I could legitimately get those prices, I would sell most of those players at that dynasty value you listed.
I think those are about the prices you'd have to pay to acquire these guys right now. Top 15 sounds really high for the WRs, but take a look at the names in that range - Diggs, Thielen, Cooks, Hilton, Golladay, Lockett - I'd take Chark and Sutton over some of those guys. (I haven't done my homework yet on McLaurin.)
