2013 Off Season Dynasty Trade Thread (for completed trades) (3 Viewers)

14 team IDP.. offered Gronkowski for david wilson and 1.03.. quickly rejected.. Trying Gronk for D. Wilson and 2.03?? Owner of DWilson hasnt made a trade in.. well at least 330 days...
Why on earth are you offering Gronk for that???
Panic offer

Brutal
Nah... All offers have been rejected.. Owner never trades.. need an RB... another offer was Crabtree for Gronk straight up... Guess Gronks value is all over the place...
Just cause someone offers you a stupid trade doesnt mean Gronks value is all over the place. It means they want to rip you off.

You should be very thankful he rejected your offers.

 
QB/2RB/3WR/TE/Flex/Superflex

Team A gave up Cousins, Kirk WAS QB;Bush, Reggie DET RB;Bowe, Dwayne KCC WR;Bennett, Martellus CHI TE

Team B gave up Decker, Eric DEN WR;Gronkowski, Rob NEP TE; Year 2014 Round 1 Draft Pick (likely early to mid)
I'd love to hear Team B's thoughts on this one. but even if we state as a give that "Bowe is an upgrade over Decker" (and even that is debateable), give me Gronk or an early to mid 2014 first easily over any other piece of that trade (and I do like Bush).
I would pretty easily take Bush over a 2014 1st..................but really this is as bad as it gets. The 1st is on the wrong side, and even then there is no way I make this move under any circumstance.

 
10 Team 21 man roster PPR 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, TE, K Def

Gave Reggie Wayne

Got Jonathon Stewart

Wayne was my #4 WR (AJ Green, Demaryius Thomas and Mike Wallace and also have Alshon Jeffrey and Vincent Brown) and needed another RB (Ray Rice and Darren Sproles and then Dujuan Harris and Ahmad Bradshaw...ugg) and have the 1.9 in the rookie draft.

Good move for you.

Total tossup for me depending on your roster.

But probably a pretty decent move if you are good at WR

 
I agree, felt like Brees is worth more than that. If the 2014 1st ends up being a high pick, then it's definitely better. But assuming another 1.07 or later, Brees is more valuable than that.

 
I was just offered Blackmon for a 3rd round rookie pick. :thumbsup: Note, the guy that offered the trade had traded nearly his whole stock of draft picks and wanted one dearly.
I don't believe this at all. 3rd round rookie picks are virtually worthless and there is no way he couldn't get a better pick for Blackmon.

Not to mention he made that guy's team a LOT better by giving him a top 2-3 QB when he was playing about the 15th ranked QB, so that alone would decrease your chances of winning since he drastically improved another team with the trade.

Even still, you are right though, unless that 2014 1st ends up like top 3, you sold yourself short on what you can get for Brees. And considering you dont know what that 2014 pick will be, Brees should get more, especially in a 14 team league where the top few QBs are even more important.

I am in some leagues that have allowed me to believe ANYTHING as far as trades in fantasy football. It's like the equivalent of a Darwin award. You may not kill yourself, but you kill your team.

Blackmon would get any first round pick of mine. 1.1 included if I had it. I might think about sweetening it with a third to be sure my offer was accepted. Pretty sure he would be the top pick if he came out this year

Some people dont shop around, and couple that with the fact that some people are real stupid, stuff like this happens.

If Blackmon came out right now, he would easily be the top offensive player taken in the NFL draft (maybe a QB, but as far as RB/WR/TE he would be), and I think he would be the the player taken at pick #1 more than any other rookie in PPR leagues.

 
Who would you guys rather have, Pettigrew or Gonzo? Gonzo while he's likely in his last year, can still bring you a title, but using even a 3 year window Bp likely blows him away...

Gonzo. You can get "almost Pettigrew" on the waiver wire in any given week.

Probably Gonzo. Definitely Gonzo if you are a strong contender and he would be your starting TE.

Youth is cool and all, but as the other guy said, guys like Pettigrew are pretty replaceable. Generally one title is about the same winnings as a few 2nd/3rd place finishes. Find your replacement TE during this entire waiver season and/or offseason.

Hell, in one of my leagues with 1.5 PPR for TE, I am considering trying to get Gonzo and give up a guy like Steve Johnson. Pretty sure I would require more on his end, but not some crazy amount. Maybe not even more than some 2nd rounder this year or next.

I would take the Decker Gronk side by a huge margin especially if I was in a win now mode. I like Cousins but in all reality he does nothing for you unless RGIII continues to be out or until he is traded away like Schaub was and even then we aren't sure what that will mean or when that will be. Reggie is interesting but honestly they are loaded on offense and he wont get as much love as he did in Miami 2 yrs ago IMO. Bowe is intriguing and he may have his best QB so far in his career but I don't trust him plain and simple. Bennett is intriguing if he can be more consistent but again there are question marks about what his role will amount to in new head coach Marc Trestmans Offense...

All of these questions concern me MORE than the Gronk and the forearm concern me.

 
I understand some concern on the Gronk injury. He could miss the start of the season. But he's 24 and has 8+ years ahead of him. They open him up, replace the plate, and it takes 10 weeks to heal. Or, they open him up, find infection, remove it, wait a few weeks, replace the plate, and wait 10 more weeks --right?

I can understand moving within the tier - say, Gronk for Graham, Gronk for Martin, Gronk for Dez, moves like that. But some really seem to be willing to take clearly lesser players for him, and I don't get that.

Same league so figured I'd just copy it down here.

Interesting trade. I would probably rather have 1.3, but I could see turning the other side into more value if you flip Desean, flip the pick, or someone like Hopkins drops to the pick.

Seems like this trade has sparked quite a bit of debate. It did as well in this league and was actually put up for a vote. It went through 7-2, fwiw.

Veto-worthy.
i'm generally against vetoing ANY trade but this is ridiculous even in 2QB league.
Who is he keeping? What are the oddities of this practice squad format that would make someone want to consider this?

It is strange especially since the team getting the short end of the deal is one of the savvier owners in the league.

I'm not sure how the practice squads work in other leagues but in this particular league when you take a player in a rookie draft you are able to keep him on your practice squad for up to four years during which time he doesn't count against your six keepers. It's essentially a way to let QBs develop without affecting your current roster.

His keepers are now Palmer, Alf, Forte, Torrey Smith, Mike Wallace, and Aaron Hernandez. I'm assuming he will move Bradford to his active roster creating the fearsome duo of Palmer and Bradford.

 
QB/2RB/3WR/TE/Flex/Superflex

Romo/Gonzalez>Gordon/1.03 in a Superflex (Might get lucky and land Geno)

Welker>>>>>>>>>>>>3.03
For a rebuilding team this is a good trade.
I would hold Romo and sell Welker/Gonzo for less. Romo has 5 years left. Gordon and 1.3 won't make up for that loss.

(Doesn't say PPR or TD pts but I don't think it matters.)

Romo has a while left.

I also seem to be behind on Gordon a bit... I LIKE him, but many are touting him pretty wildly, which I haven't gotten on board with yet.

It's pretty much two top 3 picks in a weak upper draft for a stud QB and two valuable albeit old commodities. Would prefer the stud QB in a vacuum, but we don't know the rest of the rosters, so...

 
Big trade in my favorite league. 12 team PPR, 1.5 for TEs 1/2/3/1 and 1 flex:

Rob Gronkowski, Larry Fitzgerald, 3.01, 4.02

For

Dez Bryant, Kyle Rudolph, 1.06. 1.12

Looks pretty even to me. I think you have to discount Gronk just a little due to the arm. If so, Gronk is pretty close to Dez in value even in this format. Rudolph and the two 1s is pretty close for Fitz. I like the Gronk side a little bit more, but if the other owner hits on the draft picks, lots of upside for him.

Looking at both rosters, should be win-win. The guy trading Gronk has Witten and some very good flex options. Other than Witten, his roster is really young and now adds 4 more good young players. The guy getting Gronk gets the potentially huge TE upgrade and may not lose too much at WR. In talking trades with him, I know he didn't value the rookie picks too highly this year.
