2012 Offseason Dynasty Trades (1 Viewer)

Really? I feel like I would prefer Starks over most/all the 1.10 or later picks this year.
If you like Starks, that's fine. Considering Quick, Hill, Hillman, Miller, and Pead were taken post 1.10 this year, I'd rather have my choice from that tier next year than Starks.That's not really the point though. You sold next year's 1st to improve your chances this year. I don't view him as an improvement over the 3 nominal "starting RBs" you already had (Brown/Redman/McGahee). The depth could make a difference, but it's just depth.Your RBs are definitely better than last year though.

Hillman is the only guy I wouldn't trade for Starks from that group.And you're right, the depth situation on that team was awful. I think people are really undervaluing Starks this year, may have to try and buy him elsewhere too.

Really? I feel like I would prefer Starks over most/all the 1.10 or later picks this year.
Any 1st is worth much more in my eyes than him. This was a strong class, but there are 26 players I'd rather have than Starks out of this years rookie draft.

Anyone who thinks Blackmon is on the same level as Julio jones doesn't know football. Yes, it's their opinion but it's just flat out wrong. Trying to convince someone to make a trade probably.
To be fair, there were plenty of people that had Blackmon rated ahead of Jones when Blackmon was expected to come out in last season's draft class. We have the hindsight of Jones' rookie season now, but what if Blackmon comes out and takes the league by storm.Personally I had Jones rated above both Green and Blackmon last season, but your opening line is extremely harsh and opens the door for you to look very foolish should Blackmon have a stellar rookie season, and lets not act like that's an impossibility.

:thumbup: Yes, I would expect this post to definitely be revisited if Blackmon blows up.
 
Doc Oc,

I agree my opening line was harsh but it bothered me when someone said they would take blackmon over Julio even after seeing Julio play his first season in the NFL. When was the last time a player lived up to his potential after getting arrested before he even signed his rookie contract????

Not to quibble, but no one ever actually said that they would take Blackmon over Julio. A couple of the quotes (along with my comments in ( ) were,"Julio Jones is only slightly greater than 1.4 value." (I guess 'slightly' is pretty subjective. It implies something plus the 1.4)

"RGIII (16 team remember), Michael Floyd, Justin Blackmon could all be considered close in value." (again, 'close' is subjective and also implies 'something plus')

"I wouldn't trade 1.5 or better for Julio." (this poster later recanted and said,"1.5 was probably an exaggeration, but I'd easily rather have Rich, Luck, RG3, and Martin over him. I would consider Wilson depending on need. I don't see Julio that much better than Blackmon."

Also, keep in mind that the trade was done in a 16 team league which would make the QB's more valuable.

Stole Calvin.
I don't get why people still value Bradford. His career YPA is under 6.
Stafford was below 6 for his first 2 seasons. Get Bradford in a solid system & give him some time to throw to upgraded Wrs & he should show some improvement. Last year was a disaster, if you liked him after his rookie season then i don't see any reason not to like him now.
 
took over a team in a 14 Team Super Flex High Performance, not sure what all that means but it is graded PPR, can start 1-2 QB, 2-4 RB and 2-4 WR/TE.

Not quite a total rebuild but some players I don't like and was very weak at RB and QB. Did have the 1.02, Peyton, Bradshaw, A Johnson, Fitz, DJax... and not much else.

Traded: Bradshaw and 1.02

Received: Flacco, Greene/Powell (had McKnight), Ridley/Vereen (had Woodhead), Cobb and Michael Floyd (plus 2.12 to go).

May have undersold the 1.02 in a Super Flex league, but I was able to get a servicable QB, match up the NE backfield with Vereen and get Cobb/Floyd.

For a 14 teamer, I think this team can compete if Peyton and AJ are healthy and a startable RB emerges in NYJ and NE.

Wasn't involved but a rebuilding team just sent: cam newton and Greg Salas for Tom Brady, pick 22 overall and Charles Clay.
The rebuilding team sent Cam for Brady?Yeah, didn't get the move either. His team isn't good and he gets pick 22, not having a first. Guess he thinks Brady had 3-5 more years
 
16 team PPR League,

Gave: two 2013 first round picks, with one of them being the potential 1.01 (the other is mid-late 1st)

Got: D.Thomas

my team:

Cam, BigBen

TRich, Quizz,

Nicks, Dez, DThomas, Torrey

Ahernandez, Cook

 
I'd like to hear some thoughts on this trade: PPR, 6 point per passing TD.

Team A Receives

Brandon Lloyd

Ronnie Hillman

2013 1st

Team B Receives

Andrew Luck

Donald Brown

Beanie Wells (Ryan Williams Owner)

Bernard Scott (Green-Ellis Owner)

Team A has Aaron Rodgers so Luck was expendable. Also a contending team so youth isn't an issue with acquiring the 31 year old Lloyd.

Team B: Very little depth, was picking #1 overall (took Richardson) so he's trying to get rid of older players.

I'm a big fan of Lloyd, but I also am a supporter of both Wells and Brown. Not a huge fan of Hillman. Where is the first projected? That might swing the deal. Seems pretty even

Should be a top 6 pick pick unless his team completely overachieves. Bit tough to trade in this league so I was happy to get Lloyd even though I gave up more than I had expected. And technically he gave me the 2.01 and I took Hillman so I was happy with that.
 
10 team non PPR - Did I overpay ?

New Mexico gave up:

Stafford, Matthew DET QB

Charleston gave up:

Year 2012 Draft Pick 1.07

Year 2012 Draft Pick 2.07

Year 2012 Draft Pick 2.10

Year 2012 Draft Pick 3.05

Year 2013 Round 1 Draft Pick from Charleston

Year 2013 Round 2 Draft Pick from Charleston

Year 2013 Round 2 Draft Pick from Huntington

Year 2013 Round 3 Draft Pick from Charleston

 
10 team, .5 PPR

start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 Flex & IDP

dealt Knowshon Moreno for Toby Gerhart (already have Peterson)

dealt Welker and Mike Bush for Julio Jones

Feel pretty good about both deals. Our league has a salary cap and I was able to shed some cap space in both trades and make couple deals for guys I liked. :thumbup:

if all you're dealing is rookie picks, you're never overpaying
 
10 team start 2 QB/2 RB/4 WRQB Sam BradfordWR Roddy WhiteWR D. BoweforWR Calvin Johnson
Stole Calvin.
I don't get why people still value Bradford. His career YPA is under 6.
Rookie of the Year two years ago, then played hurt and with journeymen wideouts last season.
I kinda like Bradford as well. Don't know if he'll pull a Stafford, but I do think it's possible he blossoms into a top tier QB in the next year or two. I actually think it's a pretty even trade. I know Calvin is the man but Bowe/Roddy are pretty darn good.
 
Recently traded Wes Welker straight up for Marshawn Lynch. I figure both on about 3 more years of production, but Welker is going to start losing opportunities with Lloyd there and Belichick isn't exactly a sappy guy who continues to pay players past their shelf lives. Plus I needed a running back after bagging up my draft a bit with the help of Mr. Jameson.

Curious on people's thoughts here. I gave up Julio, but was in desperate need of a QB and I don't think Dez is a huge dropoff.

Julio has been getting a lot of attention lately but like Dez he will need to prove it on the field. If QB was a need and you believe Luck is the next big thing I don't have any problems with the trade.

I actually think their is a big dropoff from Julio to Dez, but it's all opinion up to this point. You still got decent value though if you like Luck.
