2012 In Season Dynasty Trade Thread (2 Viewers)

12 team DYNASTY

standard scoring (non-ppr)

IDP

Starting rosters - QB, RB, FLEX 'RB/WR/TE', 2 WRs, TE, 2 DL, 2 LB, 2 DBs

Team A sends to team B >>>

- RB Rashard Mendenhall

- RB James Starks

- S Patrick Chung

- LB Johnson Derrick

- the 2013 2nd rd draft pick acquired in previous trade from team B

Team B sends to team A >>>

- WR Justin Blackmon
Depending on the scoring for IDP that looks very lopsided. Must be a Jaguar fan
I can see how it could be viewed that way but I am the owner of team A and I'm not a Jags fan. Here is my reasoning for this trade that does indeed look lopsided.I'm loaded at RB, (AdP, DeMarco, Bradshaw) and we only have to start one RB yet can choose to start another RB as a flex. We have to start two WRs and can use a third WR as our flex and I have good starting WRs, (Colston, Steve Smitch CAR, Hakeem) but wanted another stud WR to provide flexibility and WRs have a longer fantasy shelf life, also I drafted Dywer with my last rookie draft pick and feel he's got a shot to take over for Mendenhall who is in his contract year and I'm not sure the Steelers keep him.

IDP guys I gave up, DJ is a stud no doubt he is the meat of what I gave up but he just turned 30 and I drafted Kuechly with my first round rookie pick and Chung is very irratic in his scoring and I'm set at DB.

The second round pick was a throw in.

I like having room at the bottom of my roster to make wire moves and after pulling the trigger on this deal I picked up, LB Bobby Wagner and LB Demeco Ryemes so I don't feel hurt at RB or LB or at DB and I really like Blackmon and think he's got a good shot to turn into a long term number one fantasy WR.

I agre that it does look very lopsided from the outside but I made the offer knowing I wouldn't be hurt at RB or DB and I felt I could aggressively refill my LBers on the wire and that gamble paid off so right now I like the deal but Blackmon has to come thru for me for this to be considered a success however right now I like it.
Your logic is fine, the person you traded for is the fault. When you have that much talent and can't start it all, you try to make a trade to get one player and sometimes you over pay for it, but usually you get a sure thing, not a talented rookie who could be good or bust.
You are absolutely correct but the only time a young and potential stud #1 WR in a dynasty league with our roster structure where we require two starting Recievers and can also use a WR as a FLEX start would ever come onto the market would be at the very begining of his career BEFORE he plays a down.It is a gamble on my part but a calculated gamble.

One point I did not mention was that this is a new owner and he took over this team before the commissioner made the selection of Justin Blackmon for this team so the owner had zero vested interest in him and my gamble was based on offering lots of players with far less long-term upside.

Also I just have a strong gut feeling that Blackmon will turn into a long-term #1 WR stud and that he will be a capable third wide-out in his rookie season with potential to turn into a solid #2 WR by the end of his rookie year.

You make an excellent point but considering the circumstances of the longer shelf life of young and potential stud WRs in a dynasty league and this is the only shot to land one I felt the gamble was worth it especially considering the price I paid is buffered by my particular team's depth.

Great feedback though.
For as lop-sided as this deal looked(s) and considering how bad Blackmon looks the value I gave up in this trade hasn't really cost my team and it may have helped since I still have long-term hope for Blakcmon and immediately I freed-up roster space and even was able to pick Starks back up on the wire when he was dropped. So in the end it looks like a future #2 pick for WR Justin Blackmon and that is a reasonable price to pay for him considering a flyer-type of WR is what the owner will likely use that pick on and at least Blackmon will be over his rookie season and next year I'll be able to make an informed decision on what to do with him and he'll likely have to wait a year on whichever WR he eventually takes.Right now, not so good but it didn't hurt and may wind up as a wash but I still like Blackmon's talent but I'm in a long-term hold pattern with him but I've freed-up a few roster spots so I like the deal.

Not a fan of this trade for you, but perhaps that is because I just traded for Stafford in my dynasty league.Although I might have bought him for a little more than he's worth, I think you are selling him far lower than his dynasty value would suggest. He had a rough 1st half to the season but I think this is the perfect time to buy, not sell, Stafford in dynasty.I gave:

Brandon Lloyd

Matt Schaub

Desean Jackson

I got:

Stafford

Jon Baldwin

Then in another deal, I finally dumped that POS mcfadden in a deal tonight:

I gave:

McFadden

2nd Rd Pick for 2013

I got:

CJ Spiller

1st Rd Pick for 2013

I'm curious to hear ya'll thoughts on both trades :thumbup:

 
12 team PPR, roster of 25. My team is in last place with a 1-8 record.

I gave:

Danny Amendola

2013 1st (projected 1.08-1.12, team is currently in 1st place with a 8-1 record)

I got:

2013 1st (projected 1.02-1.03, team is currently next to last with a 2-7 record)

Damaris Johnson (throw in).

So essentially, I gave up Amendola to move up in the draft. I am in good shape at WR position with a lot of mostly young players (Marshall, Young, Wright, Kerley, Broyles, Jeffery) so that made Amendola expendable.

I like both of those for you regardless of scoring and if PPR I really like it. Swapping draft picks is icing on the cake.
 
It's PPR. Thanks for the feedback.

It's a 16 team league so the team's are generally quite thin.

My core that I'm now building around:

Stafford

Ridley/Spiller

Harvin/Julio

Rudolph (he's been quite the disappointment the last couple of weeks, hoping he can pick it up)

He is 5-4 and fighting to make the playoffs. We have to start 3 WRs and while he has Cruz and Decker, his next 2 best WRs are Stevie Johnson and Nate Washington, so Amendola is an upgrade over them. It makes sense if one is more concerned with making and advancing in the playoffs this year, and Amendola looks like a good long term PPR prospect.

Interesting move in a deep starter league. All three of those guys start plus a 1st...
I like the Cruz side better. In a deep starter league it is easy to find guys that will put up decent numbers in the flex spots if you watch the waiver wire. In a league I am in that starts 2 rbs 3 receivers 1 te and 2 flex. I have already found Broyles, Bennett, Dwyer, Morris and others.

That's debatable - and even if he is, he's not worth a move of 5-6 spots in the first round.
 
12 Team PPR

Team A gets:

LeSean McCoy

Antonio Brown

2013 2nd (early-mid)

Team B gets:

Jamaal Charles

Percy Harvin

 
New league this year...we can keep 3 players for up to 4 years...my team is out of it I did the following trade for the future:

Traded:

Aaron Rodgers (1st round pick)

Darren SprolesO (3rd round pick)

Round 9

Round 12

Round 13

Received:

C.J. SpillerP (7th round pick)

Cam Newton (1st round pick)

Round 3

Round 5

Round 7

This trade was done before Sproles was injured...my team was out of it, i'm looking to next year...

With this trade I'll have two 3rd round picks and three 5th round picks.

Hoping having Doug Martin and Spiller as my 2 starting RB next year pays off!

I think I'd lean towards JC/Harvin
I like the Mccoy, Brown side a little more. You get the extra draft pick even if it is lower, and I have a feeling Wallace will be leaving Pittsburgh after this season.
I think the harvin Charles side is the easy winner here. I also don't think Wallace leaving Pittsburgh is necessarily a good thing for brown. Wallace opens up a lot of space underneath, which is where brown does a lot of his damage

Believe me, I agree that Wallace leaving isn't good for anyone on the Pittsburgh offense - he's a pure horse. But Sanders, when healthy, is no slouch. And neither is Ben. I've never loved Brown at his off-season ADP/value in dynasty circles, but he's not a throw away here. Even with Wallace out of town, he's still going to be good for 14-15 per game. And if I've learned anything about Steelers' fans impact on fantasy football, there will always be 1-3 owners in a league willing to buy him at WR16-18 value next season. The market keeps a guy like Brown valuable for longer than he otherwise should be.More than Brown though, I don't feel comfortable holding Charles at RB6-8 value, which would require he maintained that value for 3 or so more years, for a variety of reasons. I pair this up as follows, using a hypothetical piece to bridge the value gaps:McCoy >= Harvin, 1.10 (hypothetical piece)Brown, early to mid 2nd, 1.10 (hypothetical piece now washed out from equation) = Charles

Spiller is worth world's more than this. Cannot believe Stevie still has fooled some owners in to carrying this type of trade value.

Reasonable if you need a chance at a short-term starter. Reasonable if you don't need Dwyer in the short-term and would rather a pick.

I agree with this. Sure, we've seen Gore and Lloyd dealt above market value for mid 1st type value, but without assuming Team A could do this, this is a worthwhile move.

It's a Hyper league. My RBs are Reggie, Sproles, D Richardson, Pierce, Best, Moreno. Just wanted another body with upside for the future. I watched Dwyer against the Redskins and thought he looked like a starting caliber RB. A bit sloppy behind the line of scrimmage, but once he gets moving he's hard to stop.
 
BLOCKBUSTER ALERT

14 team ppr. 6 pts per passing TD.

Gave: QB Blaine Gabbert

Got: RB Knowshon Moreno

:bag:

 
1 pt per rec.Adrian Peterson for Calvin Johnson.
I'd need 2 APs to deal Calvin in PPR dynasty.
Calvin owner has been pestering me trying to get me to give Peterson, Britt, and a mid-1st for Calvin in non-ppr dynasty. I agree it's fair value, but I already go 6 deep with quality WRs, I'm shallower at RB, and with Peterson I'm the odds-on favorite to take home the title this year, so I've declined. Just posting to give some more context to the AP-vs-Calvin comparison.

Can't believe there's a trade where I'd rather have Gabbert.
Just tired of looking at his name on my roster every week. I am not in great shape at QB in that league, but I have Cutler and Schaub along with two developmental guys that I prefer to Gabbert at this point (Foles and Mallett).I actually think NoShow might be a better back than Hillman. I've seen some guys like Marshawn Lynch, Cedric Benson, and Thomas Jones return from the abyss. Hoping for (not expecting) the same thing here.

Oh I can totally understand, especially with the value of non elite QBs. I just think Moreno is pretty much worthless.
 
Well, last trade of my season (right before the deadline).

Give Reggie Wayne and Jonathan Baldwin.

Receive Jermaine Gresham, Darrius Heyward-Bey, a 2014 3rd Rounder, a 2014 3rd Rounder, and a 2015 1st Rounder.

Wayne and Baldwin's contracts both expire at the end of the season. Gresham and Heyward-Bey are both signed for two years.

My playoff hopes ended today, so I looked to get some value in the future. The guy I traded to is the #1 seed and Reggie Wayne will become his WR3 behind Victor Cruz and Calvin Johnson.

Great trade for both franchises. Hope that guy wins a championship, he runs a great team.

Non-PPR, I don't think that is fair value, personally. ADP is putting up monster numbers from the RB position, which is gold in standard fantasy leagues. It is not unreasonable to expect ADP to double the VBD per year, assuming we use RB heavy baselines. Meaning, Calvin needs to last more than twice as long to make up that up. And it will likely be 4 years before we you come out on the right side. I would much rather go after a cheaper option and keep ADP.

I think Gabbert has looked infinity better than last year. I came close to buying him in a couple leagues but didn't since I think he'd be a cheap buy low to take a flyer on. I found Knowshon on the waivers in one of my leagues and felt he was worth a pickup. Not that optimistic about him, but definitely worth a flyer as well.

I feel confident that age 28+ HoF WR Calvin Johnson will produce significantly more VBD than age 28+ HoF RB Adrian Peterson. He'll also carry much more perceived value. I bet a substantial amount that his adp will be a round higher than Peterson's this upcoming offseason. I'm not that high on Britt, and I'm really low on late 2013 firsts, so it's a small price to pay to make up a round worth of startup value. With that said, Peterson will crush Calvin in VBD this season, and he does benefit from the fact that the current WR crop is the deepest and the current RB crop is the shallowest I can remember either being.
 
Non PPR Zealots Dynasty

I gave Steven Ridley & Jordy Nelson

I got Marshawn Lynch & Kenny Britt

Ridley has been terrific, but I wanted to secure a more reliable RB, and Lynch fits the bill. Lynch joins McCoy/Richardson on my squad. Jordy is great, but I felt I had the depth at WR to move him for the RB upgrade. Getting the ever frustrating Britt softened the blow. He's got talent, he just needs to stay out of jail and remain healthy.
