Winslow is light-years behind Clark in dynasty

26 YO, Top 5 WR >>>> 31 YO Top 3 TEColston is having a bad season, and I don't know that I expect it to change all that much. Colston is not a #1 WR in the NFL, talent wise. FF wise, he is quickly giving up his must start tag. The team getting Austin gets the best and youngest player in the deal. Easy win for him/her.FUBAR said:

Who is going to have more trade value next year - a 32 year old Clark or a 28 year old Winslow?

WOAH! That is a big time steal!!! What is the format? Unless it is some strange format, you made out like Enron!

Winslow isn't far behind Clark in dynasty? You can't be serious. Winslow is four years younger but will most likely retire before Clark given Winslow's knee issues and surgeries. It's not even close actually. Clark by far.

League 2 is MOXFFL VI, and I am partners with Couch Potato. The other owner approached us about Torain and CP countered with a nice sales pitch to the other owner, but I was still very surprised he took it.League 1 is a money league with friends.Yahoo public leagues probably, or friends or family.Where do you find these trade partners?Good trades for you.

12 team ppr - std scoring (no idp)
gave colston / 2011 3rd
got 2011 1st (est. 6-10, but who knows) / B Pettigrew TE DET
had colston as wr4 behind AJ/Calvin/Fitz, with knox/moore/etc. on the bench.
maybe sold low on colston, but got tired of the below average stat lines w/ the ball distribution in NO. hell, maybe lance moore (or henderson) outscores him the rest of the year.

As an owner in MOX VI, I'd LOVE to hear what CP's sales pitch was that sold an owner that it was worth dealing a top 20-25 WR for a backup RB. His sales pitches must be very effective on some owners.League 2 is MOXFFL VI, and I am partners with Couch Potato. The other owner approached us about Torain and CP countered with a nice sales pitch to the other owner, but I was still very surprised he took it.League 1 is a money league with friends.Yahoo public leagues probably, or friends or family.Where do you find these trade partners?Good trades for you.

The Colston owner in my league traded him for Ryan Mathews during the preseason.

Owner B is flush with WR talent and he loves to acquire draft picks. I thought it was a nice deal but as is the case with draft picks a lot will depend on where that pick falls and who he gets with it.

16 team h2h, no ppr , Dynasty
End of week 1.
I traded Roddy White, Tony Scheffler, Thomas Jones, Josh Morgan
for
LeSean McCoy, Demaryius Thomas, Jason Witten.
Was really happy after week 2. Havnt been quite as happy since though considering Thomas only had 1 good game, Witten has been ineffective and McCoy just busted his ribs. But I think I made the right choice for the future.

I like both of your trades, if the draft picks work out that way.The Colston owner got robbed, as did the Spiller owner. You don't give up on a talented rookie, 5 games into the season.

I gave my 2011 2nd, my 2012 2nd, my 2013 2nd and Malcom Floyd
I got Lynch
Background: 16 team dynasty IDP with salary/contract caps. We start 1 RB, 1 WR, 1 RB/WR/TE flex and 2 WR/TE flex. (So most teams try to start 2 RB/3 WR, I'm starting 2 RB and sometimes 1 WR/2 TE).
It's worth noting in the context of this trade that I have a very strong team and built for a championship run, and scoring/value is fairly heavily skewed towards RB/WR. The picks should be pretty late as I've got a good and fairly young team. In my case, I have always liked Lynch, but was also worried about my RB depth which has carried me so far. (And I can't pry Ringer away from that owner).
QB: Rodgers, Ryan with Kafka on my taxi squad
RB: CJ3, Hillis, Wells, D.Brown, B.Scott and now Lynch
WR/TE: Finley, Keller, Maclin, Driver, Santonio, Legedu, Benn, Sidney Rice, Jared Cook, Chambers with Aaron Hernandez on my taxi squad
DL: Allen, Tuck, Avril
LB: Timmons, Lofton, Harrison, Levy, Goff
DB: Yeremiah Bell, Finnegan

That is a lot to pay for a RB that will not start for you the vast majority of the time, but I am not someone who is very high on Marshawn Lynch. With that team I would much rather devote my resources at acquiring a standout wide receiver.As a side note, I think it is safe to release Jared Cook or Chris Chambers and get Aaron Hernandez on your active roster. No need to do it this week, obviously, so I am sure it is on your To Do List.Regards,THE FANTASY KING

It's overpaying but I could see it helping a team. Fitz is a big improvement over Harvin both short and long term. If you've got 2 other top RBs and aren't hurting for depth, Foster can be moved. As valuable as he is right now, his value is volatile. Moving him for Fitz stabilizes the value.
THE FANTASY KING
Footballguy
This does not mean anything. Foster's "value" is that he's a reliable RB1. The word "volatile" just means that you have not accepted it yet and still consider Foster some kind of mirage because he does not have high pedigree. You, and apparently this poster, are wrong, and will eventually come to the same conclusion that most of us have.I have no idea what "stabilizing the value" has to do with anything. The most volatile player in this deal is Fitzgerald who's talent cannot save him from his terrible situation that is not likely to improve in the foreseeable future. I'm all for buying low on Fitzgerald because of his ability, but this buying very high. Trades should be made and players should be assessed looking forwards, not backwards.
Paying a team a top RB, a #1 draft pick, and a decent upside candidate in Harvin to take the nightmare that Fitzgerald has become off of their hands is a very bad decision.

Depends on the team and the league.It's a start 2 rb, 2 wr, 1 flex - PPR
I'm definitely contending, and was seriously flush with RB (Had both AZ guys / NYG guys / and Oak guys, plus Foster and Ray Rice).
My WR's were AJ, Austin, and Harvin. Now they are AJ/Austin/Fitz. I like that a lot better moving forward in a PPR league. I won't suffer too much at RB with some combination of Bradshaw / Rice / Beanie starting, and the Oak guys on the bench.
Adding Fitz (Fitz!) cost me a guy I got off waivers last year, Harvin, and my late 1. Despite Foster's performance over the first 4 games, with the team I had, I make this deal ten times out of ten, because I made my team better. I'm very confident Fitz will be fine.
THE FANTASY KING
Footballguy
Good example here of making trades while looking backwards. It is irrelevant how you got Foster, it has absolutely nothing to do with how many points he scores and what he is worth on the trade market in your league.Foster is not a guy you got off waivers - he is a top, elite RB1, and you added assets to him in order to buy a WR who's stock has taken an absolute nosedirve and is not even a must-start right now.
Everything else you wrote is just excuses for making a bad trade.
It doesn not matter that you have good depth - you still should have gotten more for Foster or traded one of the other RB's.
It doesn not matter if you think Fitz will rebound - you still traded way too much to get him.
It does not matter what your WR's were - you still should have gotten value in your trade.
You may think your team is better now, and I disagree, but either way, it could have been even better if you had not made a terrible trade. All of the justifications around it are just that - justifications.
Good luck with the rest of your run this year, I hope you do well despite this trade. Take this as a learning opportunity.

Not trying to play thread police or anything, but personally, I was hoping this thread would continue to be more of a "here are the trades that went down", and not "here's why you screwed up all your trades that went down". I can understand asking for clarification about things like scoring system, roster sizes, lineup requirements, or even asking for further insight into either party's motivation for making the trade in question, but personally I don't think this is the right place to be spending 3+ posts telling someone how terrible their trade was. This isn't really a "rate my trade" kind of thread, it's a thread designed to give people a good idea of current market value in dynasty leagues (whether you agree with that market value or not).Now, with that said, and to be a complete hypocrite... I would have done that trade, too, provided I had the RB depth to absorb the loss of Foster. Arian Foster is a very good RB in a great situation. Larry Fitzgerald is a future first-ballot Hall of Famer in his prime.

I agree. Enough of the bashing already. Move on.
THE FANTASY KING
Footballguy
I am sorry I am not using the thread as you hoped. Unfortunately, I disagree and think that discussing trades is very valuable.As for the HOF talk, I do not find that particularly relevant. We are all aware of Fitzgerald's ability, but obviously that ability is not enough to overcome his situation, which is unlikely to change soon as it is not easy in the NFL to easily reboot your QB situation. Foster is not just helped by his situation, he is perfect for his situation. If you're okay giving up stud RB production over the short-term to sit on a guy for 1-2 years because he is going to be in Canton, that is fine, but I think you are hurting your chances at winning a lot of fantasy games.Regards,THE FANTASY KING

The price for a top 5 WR in a PPR league is a RB1 ++.

Traded my Andre Johnson for Jahvid Best. I'm 0-4 because of my backfield so I decided to go for the future.
Did I give up Andre for too little?
