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

I am not gonna get crazy and say I prefer Thomas over Lynch/White, but when you add morris to it, sure.
I most certainly prefer Thomas over Lynch/White in dynasty.
Well, you notoriously pick whoever is younger, so not surprised.I figure Lynch and White will be scoring very well for the next 2-3 years. By then, Manning likely won't be around, and unless Thomas gets hooked up with another stud QB, I don't see annual 300 point seasons for him.
 
12 team PPRGave 1.12For Leshoure
Ill take LeShoure here. LeShoure's value is all over the place. In multiple leagues I've offered 1.3, 1.4, 1.7 or 1.10 all getting rejected. I'm probably overpaying in some of the offers but I guess I'm being saved from myself because I think all those offers were pretty good.

I would give 10 or 12 for Leshoure. You would definitely be overpaying with those other offers, so be glad they said no, lol. Maybe they don't know Bush is there, who knows.

And he's notorious for having it work out for him. Also, it's not simply taking the younger player - it's taking the right younger player. In a vacuum he's right about DT over Lynch/White but there are team factors involved. If getting Lynch wins a team a title it's not a bad trade, but otherwise DT has more long term value. There's no chance a DT owner takes this deal a year from now.

Lynch/White, to me, would help a team a lot more than just Thomas for probably the next 3 years. After that, of course Thomas will be the guy to own. But he will also be 29, so then what do you have, keeping Thomas will help you for 4 years or so after Lynch and White will be useless.

So do you want the help for 3 years now? Or 4 years after these next 3 years.

If your team is loaded then yeah, keep Thomas. Most teams aren't loaded enough where both Lynch and White wouldn't be a given to start no matter what every week for a few years.

 
I almost never like deals where you give up the most valuable player for smaller pieces. Lynch and White are proven commodities, but they're also at an age where most of the teams in your league won't pay top value to get them. I mean, Roddy turns 32 next season. How much longer will he play at a high level? Realistically, what will his trade value be this season? Or next season?

People who only look at it in terms of points are missing part of the puzzle. Owning players like Thomas gives you great flexibility and exit value. If you decide that Marqise Lee is the next big thing, you can probably trade DT straight up for him next year. And if you're right, your team won't skip a beat. On the flipside, if you try to move Lynch and White for him, you'll probably get rejected. Those guys will expire on your roster and soon enough you'll be staring at two holes in your lineup with no obvious way to fix it.

We've been over all this before in other threads. It's not as black and white as I've made it out to be above, but in general I think going with the youth-heavy approach gives you more flexibility to sustain your roster and add onto its value, instead of just treading water and trying to fill holes. Hence why I think you simply can't trade players like Thomas, Julio, Martin, TRich, Luck, or Graham unless you're getting another player of that ilk back in return. Too scarce. Too difficult to replace. The goal is to get as many of those guys as possible, not piece them out for lesser commodities.

I agree with everything you are saying regarding philosophy, but I am just talking about this deal specifically. If it was just a straight up Thomas for Lynch/White. My guess is most scenarios I would prefer Lynch and White. Also, if you decided to, in a coupe years I am pretty sure Lynch and White would both have enough trade value to deal for some youth if you needed to go that route. I realize this draft class is weak, but people are dealing pretty good picks to get a 35 year old Reggie Wayne.And of course, it always depends what else is on your roster. Thomas could pretty easily go wasted on your team if you are weak in several areas.

That's a great trade for Blackmon. I've been trying to get Blackmon with a deal involving Wallace but his owner is very high Blackmon.

To each his own I guess. Lynch probably has a couple good years left, but even now he's getting up there for a RB and Roddy is basically at the end of his rope in terms of trade value. Yea, you might get something for him in a year or two, but it probably won't be much. Let's get real here. Who pays top value for a 32-33 year old receiver? Pretty much nobody. This is the kind of deal that you might like for a year or two, but will eventually come to regret deeply. I always cringe when I see owners in my league give up a core player for lesser pieces. I think that's the entirely wrong way to go about it.

And again, in general, I agree with the philosophy part of it.

It's also a case by case basis with this particular choice for me. Show me my roster and lineup requirements and I will tell you which I prefer. In most cases, at least 3/4, I would probably prefer Lynch/White

Hillman, Ronnie DEN RB

Graham, Jimmy NOS TE

Year 2013 Draft Pick 2.09

Get:

Richardson, Trent CLE RB

Year 2014 Round 2 Draft Pick

20.00 in blind bidding

Same league as before. Cash is used for tagging, RFA auctions, and waivers. This was a tough deal to do. TE's get 1.5PPR. Graham is unstoppable. Start 11 on O with very flexible lineups. (1-2 QB, 1-5 WR, 1-5 RB, 1-3TE, PK) and 11 on D.

McFadden is my only real running back. Killed me last year. I have Gresham and Cook at TE. I could afford to part with Jimmy. I'll miss the hell out of him though.

1- Seems like someone got Blackmon for a steal2- Meh, maybe prefer Boldin, why not.3- That is a really stupid deal for Harvin. If Harvin tore his ACL this morning, I would make that deal for him. If Harvin tore his ACL in august I would make that deal for him. And I wouldnt think more than 5 seconds about doing it. Ugly, as bad as it gets.

I understand why you did it, but I think you goofed. In this format, I strongly prefer Graham to TRich. I think you could've gotten a cheaper backup RB at better value.

1 & 3 seem really out of whack. Those would be the entry fees for discussing trades for Blackmon/Harvin in my league. Unless I am missing some type of scoring uniqueness they seem like terrible deals for those giving up the young receivers.

It's doable when you don't need to solely weigh the short-term to win. Boxing it in to "whoever is younger" is quite simplistic, but believe what you must.

I'd rather take a stab on the rookie. Not because he is younger. Because I think I can get a better player than LeShoure.

14 team PPR with devy picks so draft is diluted some. Also no TE required

I like getting Dez for that price.
I would too. This was his offer for Dez and was shocked I didn't accept.
So this isn't a real, accepted trade? Meaning he posted it with an agenda? Can we just ban this Phenix guy from this thread?

[*]Wrath of Bud gave up Bryant, Dez DAL WR

How would he know, is he in all my leagues? How does anyone know what trades I make in any league? I posted a trade I made similar to one I'm making in another league.

LMFAO, the self entitlement of some. "Can we ban this guy?"... Can we ban you for thinking you make the rules?

ETA: And to be honest I hought I paid a lot giving 3 top 15 picks. Dez is a headcase but like the talent.

3 top 15 picks in a weak draft, the highest of which is the 1.05. Plus a 29 year old WR (who will be 30 when season starts) who just took a massive downgrade at QB. My bad, you're right, that is a lot for a top 4 dynasty WR.

The thing that is funny with you is that you think that you are setting the price for Dez. I own him and don't really want to move him. Therefore I set the price on what it will take to pry him from me. What is a players value? It's whatever his owner is willing to sell him for.
