2013 Off Season Dynasty Trade Thread (for completed trades) (1 Viewer)

Horrible at trying to gauge value of future draft picks, so interested to see what the sharks think of a pair of moves trying to rebuild.This team finished 11 out of 12 in a WCOFF scoring style dynasty. Very old. Very little talent. Had picks 1.02, 2.02, 3.02. I need young talent, at least to substantially rebuild half this roster. Traded 2.02 for 2.09 & Foles (Vick, Schuab were/are qbs)Traded 1.02 for Pierce, L. James, and 3.09. (Murray, Gore, Hunter were/are rbs)Bottom line: 1.02, 2.02 turned into Foles, Pierce, James, 2.09, 3.09. I'm not sure about value, but I got 3 young players I like, who handcuff my qb/rb situation, and still have 3 later picks.
You gave up a lot of value on both trades. I suggest checking out the dynasty start up thread to help you gauge value and also post in the Assistant Coach forum. If you need young talent you shouldn't be trading picks to get it. You also shouldn't trading high picks for guys who were 2nd and 3rd round picks last year. Murray and Gore are the guys you should be trading for picks. It looks like you're falling into the trap of doing a half ### rebuild instead of accepting that you don't have a good enough team to compete and trade away your vets who still hold some value.
that 1.02 trade was pretty awful- should get a solid contributor for that pick and Pierce and James are back-ups. Might as well take Patterson or Lacy

12 team. 0.5 PPR, start 1/2/3/1I gave: SJax, J Rodgers, 2014 1stI get: M Ryan/1.04/2014 2ndMy 14 should be 2nd half. His 2nd probably mid-round at worst. Still leaves me with Martin/Morris/Charles at RB, so I felt trading Jackson made sense even though I think he's good for another 1-2 years.
Followed this up with this oneI gave up:Wilson, Russell SEA QBYear 2013 Draft Pick 2.07Team B gave up:Year 2013 Draft Pick 1.01Year 2013 Draft Pick 2.01
I am confused. You are getting both better AND younger with the deals.
 
Comatose Sleepers gave up Gordon, Josh CLE WR;Harris, Dwayne DAL WR

Gooney Birds gave up Pierce, Bernard BAL RB;Hill, Stephen NYJ WR; Year 2013 Draft Pick 1.13

 
Big one just went down in one of my 14 team PPR dev leagues. Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 FLEX. 6 points per all TDs. .75/1/1.25 PPR.TEAM A gave:AJ Green, Brandon PettigrewTEAM B gave:Marqise Lee, Da'Rick Rogers, Antonio Brown, Marcus Lattimore, Johnathan Gray
I'm team B, I think context helps more with this trade. It's a true win-win, IMO.Team AQB-Kaepernick, CutlerRB-Foster/Tate, Charles, Sproles, Lattimore, Turner, Felix, Gray(devy)WR-Harvin, Cobb, Brown, Jennings, James Jones, Da'Rick Rogers, E.

Bush, Mendenhall, Gurley(devy), Yeldon(devy)WR-Green, Fitz, Holmes, Jeffery, Keenan Allen, Marquess WilsonTE-Gronk, PettigrewFrom my perspective, I had too many eggs in the future basket and not enough to win now. This evens out my team and gives me a ton of roster spots to pick up players.
 
Appreciate your opinion. And I appreciate the "value" of the high pick...but I assign a name to the pick, and who there is a game changer?

Honestly, if I am in a rookie draft right now, with this crop of rookies, Pierce is a top 3 pick. I know others might not be as high on him, but is geo bernard any more of a sure thing? Patterson a better building block than Pierce? Guess time will tell.

When none of the prospects excite me, take the shotgun approach and land 5, I guess.

FWIW, I turned down more "value" to get two prospects I feel are first rounders if they were in this rookie draft. Double your pleasure, Double your losses!

Feel free to ignore the advice and trust your own judgement but you are making a mistake giving up so much value. You may not think the 1.02 is worth much but a lot of people do. If you really wanted Pierce you could probably get him for a 2nd. If you would have taken the 'value' you mentioned you could have had Pierce plus much more.

Although I agree with your overall premise I highly doubt any pierce owner is parting with him for a 2nd rounder. If they are then he's definitely a buy IMO

I assume his value is all over the place. He's still likely stuck behind Rice for 3 more years.

I can see dealing AJ for prospects like this in a couple years. I'm all for taking shots on youth but with this one I think you did well for yourself.

I find the 3rd round picks humerous

Not as funny as your spelling of the word. :hophead: Yeah, it may be humorous, but it depends on the context. If the addition of these 3rd rounders were absolutely crucial to the deal being completed, I would probably agree with you ("Sorry Ralph, no trade unless you include those 3rds with ADP").

However, in some of my leagues there are owners who seem to collect these picks and routinely ask they be included (the old concept of getting something thrown in "to boot"). I usually don't comply because I like to save picks that might seem worthless (as sometimes I have seen an overlooked diamond in the rough when I am picking as late as the 4th round) but if I am facing serious roster cutdown issues I might include them.

And (although probably not the case here) I have seen teams in a long term rebuilding mode stockpiling extra picks - trying to collect as many lottery tickets as they can (even though the odds are slim once you get into the 3rd round).

If u working w a guy that shows a history of not valuing lower picks then y not squeeze a little extra out. It's an idp league and I usually have a decent shot at finding lb or te prospects in those later rounds, or if I cant find anything I'll just package it for a future 2nd.

Usually, I always say if the trade is close, the team getting the best player wins. But this is really close. I'll have to give it some thought.

Gave up Alf, Bowe

Got. Harvin, D.Moore

Think it's a big price to pay for Harvin, especially given how light it leaves me at RB, but as someone wiser than me said about this hobby, the more teams I have the more I see who "my guys" are, and Alf and Bowe don't go into that category but Percy certainly does

(Edit, timing is everything and Coop is the wiser person I was quoting above)

I have Julio a little higher but I look at the trade as Fitz for Wallace and 1.09. Pretty even IMO but I'd rather have the Julio/Fitz side.

Agree on the side and I also have Julio over Thomas by a decent amount. Peyton doesn't have a ton of years left while Ryan is going nowhere.

I prefer Julio to Thomas as well, but I'm not so sure why everyone keeps knocking Thomas down because of Peyton's age. Do people think that Denver isn't going to use a QB once Peyton is gone?

Probably take Stewart and the pick for Ridley. Not a huge fan of either so why not roll the dice on the pick.Unless I'm completely rebuilding that's not enough for Julio.

this makes little sense. Why trade cj for that right now?
Given his age, are you suggesting you wait til September and hope he looks good before trading? There is a real possibility that trade is no longer on the table.If the pick is early it could be a home run.

To me either.
I really like Moore, had the depth to move CJ(who I don't like very much), needed to get younger, needed WRs more than RBs, and expect the picks to be pretty high. I don't expect Johnson's value to rise any higher than it is currently. This is my reasoning
