2012 Offseason Dynasty Trades (1 Viewer)

[Couch Potato]

14 team, no PPR, TE=WRFighting Couch Potatoes V gave up:Moore, Matt MIA QBCelek, Brent PHI TEYear 2012 Round 1 Draft Pick from Fighting Couch Potatoes VTeam X gave up:Vick, Michael PHI QBBowe, Dwayne KCC WRPick will be 1.04, and I'm expecting the top two RBs + Luck to be gone in top 3. Need for immediate viable starting QB is acute as Kolb and M Moore are all I had going, and Vick s/b QB5-8 when healthy.

that is insane for the 1.04. If you go WR there, you hope for someone like Bowe. If you go QB, you hope for someone like Vick. To get both is almost like Buy One Get One for near free...

He's looking for RB I'm pretty sure, and right after the trade he dropped Moore and Celek for a couple of flier RBs (the trade was for the pick, he just asked me to toss him my drops in the trade). Maybe he's hoping to trade up into 1.1 or 1.2. I was happy with the deal. So many times over the years I've been stuck with rookies that didn't pan out that these days I usually take the vet in trade and let others take the risk and do the waiting. I felt like this was a good haul for that pick, esp. hurting as I was at QB.

Nicks by a longshot. Terrible trade.

 

[Skeletore Eh]

12 team ppr. Gave: Mike Wallace, Donald Brown, Delone Carter, 2.03Got: Julio Jones, Shonn Greene, 2.06

Wow, that is cheap compared to what I've seen Julio go for!

wallace is just as good and nearly as young

I don't think so. Not a complete wr like Julio. Wallace is fast and a great deep threat but Julio is nearly as good at that but does everything else. He's a beast in the open field and a nightmare at the goal line with his leaping ability, where Wallace basically disappears

 

[jwb]

12 team PPR, TE reqGive: Vernon Davis, Andre CaldwellGet: Witten, Collie

So basically Vernon for Witten. I like Vernon better. But Collie could be a wildcard here, so it does seem like a fair deal.

That was why I did it - I like Vernon (a little) over Witten, but Collie stayed injury-free, and will have a better qb next year. Needed the wr depth, and he could possibly put up WR2 numbers.

Got: Michael Bush and #7 pick in 2012 Developmental draft. All college players are eligible to be drafted.

I get my info from what I see. Have you ever seen Wallace run a fade? It's not pretty. He's just not a physical enough receiver to be effective in tight quarters. You can shake and bake the statistics any way you want. Do you really think Wallace is the more dangerous weapon around the goal line?

Doesn't matter who is more dangerous -- you said Wallace "basically disappears" which is a different statement. I've seen the ball thrown to Wallace several times from the goal line, he doesn't vanish, they still try and get him the ball.

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Yeah, I can't see moving Newton or Stafford unless I got just an UNREAL deal. Both are so young and sooo darn good.

I think stafford is being massively overvalued here.

Stafford is easily my #2 Dynasty QB. He's 23 Just threw for 5k has Calvin and look out if the run game ever gets going.

He's also highly unlikely to ever throw it 663 times again.

He's also likely to improve all those stats that EBF just quoted. He is only 24 and really has only played about 25 games.

Was basically disappears too strong? Maybe I shoulda gone with not very effective. Regardless, the point still stands. Just because they try and get him the ball doesn't mean it works. Let's not forget the steelers struggles in the red zone. Could that have something to do with their #1wr's ability on that part of the field? And when someone points out Wallace's two tds to Julio's zero, what are they suggesting?

Freeman has some pretty nice value in this format. He's worth much more than Tate in a start 2/superflex.

I didn't know that's what a Superflex was and in that case it's not even close. The guy getting Manning must think he's going to play and win the league for him this year.

yes it was way too strong...so did you watch every red zone snap by the Steelers this year to determine that Wallace disappears? Obviously you didn't because you didn't see that Wallace scored 2 of his 6 TD's at the GL or you wouldn't have said he "basically disappears"I own both and don't really see much difference between the two. Wallace won't out leap you or use his size, but certainly uses his quicks and is more sudden which helps him get open in the RZ. He also has a resume of two top 10 finishes in his 2nd/3rd years. I think he'sas good as most WR's...

I was Team B in this. I need WR help badly, and had RB depth to spare. Team A's starting RB's are Sproles and Greene, so he's hoping Bush leaves OAK or DMC leaves OAK. Not trying to justify the trade for his side, just giving some context.

 

[ebcpastor2004]

Zealots scoring, no ppr- I just traded Ben R & Dez B for

Eli Manning & 2012 2.06 pick

It was the quickest accept I've ever seen, so I guess I want to see if I highballed Eli. I had concerns about both Ben & Dez, plus I'm a bit of Manning homer. I can start Calvin, Fitzgerald, & Julio Jones at WR, so I didn't leave any holes there. With the extra 2nd I have a couple of pieces to get back into the 1st round now. What do you think about the trade?

2QB ppr league just made the following -

Got: Adrian Peterson, Mikel Leshoure, Jeremy Maclin, Vincent Jackson

Gave: Jay Cutler, Chris Johnson, Mario Manningham, Brandon Marshall

I told him I'd do it, but was kind of wishing I hadn't said yes. Especially after reading recent posts on the severity of Adrian's knee. But I was weak at wideout so Maclin and Jackson should help.

I like Eli a bit more than Ben, but Dez was giving up a lot more than you had to, even though I'm not a huge Dez fan (his perceived value has to be more than that). You'd better hit on that 2.06!

I felt I really needed an elite WR and Nicks should give me

many more years than Foster.

Gambling that,

1 Michael Bush ends up a lead back by a) going to a new team or b) Raiders trading DMac

2 Reggie Bush continues to be used effectively in Miami (he finished with a 9 game streak averaging 19.3 ppg and had 11 games in double digits). Even if Daniel Thomas works his way in hopefully Miami would use Bush ala Sproles.

3 Gore has another solid year left

4 I can hit a decent option in the draft at 1.6

Tate and Pierre Thomas were both good flex options, and if Foster ends up leaving I might end up looking real good.

A couple days earlier got Randall Cobb for Vincent Brown, which could go either way or equal.

[Donsmith753]

I like it a lot. That's the old "I'll give you three dimes for a dollar" type of deal. I get a lot of those offers.

That's it just been processed.I was the league champion by consistently giving away first round picks (I don't have a single draft pick next year). With it being a 16 team league I don't mind giving up the 1sts as they're usually late.This was me trying to make up for a bad trade earlier in the year where I gave Antonio Brown, Wells and 2013 1st for Demarco Murray. I left myself without enough WR depth and getting Floyd or Wright as my WR5 would be great.

A lot of the trades here lately are really head scratching - to the point that this thread is helping me less and less for determining actual trade value. Some trades can be explained by the context of the league, but even if the owner was overstocked at the TE position, I would think he could have done better than the 2.11 - I dunno, perhaps Pettigrew was shopped around and that was the best offer.

Follow up to the quoted trade above where I had received Fred Jackson:Team Y gave up:Royster, Evan WAS RBFord, Jacoby OAK WRYear 2012 Draft Pick 3.07Fighting Couch Potatoes gave up:Jackson, Fred BUF RBAt age 31.5 going into 2012 season, and with Spiller getting an increased share going forward per HC Gailey, you have to wonder how much longer Fred Jackson will continue to start. One year, maybe two, and sharing time at that.With my depth at RB, Jackson might not see the starting lineup depending on Spiller's RBBC share. My other RBs are Mendenhall/Redman, Sproles, Wells, Helu, Blount, Starks, McGahee, Benson, Ridley, and Powell.I thought getting WR Ford (I'm short WRs), Royster (to pair with Helu), and the 3.07 pick was an offer worth accepting for Fred.

Some background, which I should've included the first time...Our league has 2 new owners that are conducting a dispersal draft. At the point of the trade, they were a little over halfway done. One guy had 2 TEs (Gates, F Davis) and the other guy had none. The best rookie pick available was an early 3rd. The guy w/ 2 TEs dealt me his dispersal pick that was on the clock for the 2.11. The other guy had planned to take Pettigrew.
