From a team perspective, I love those kinds of moves. I think they make it less likely to finish top 3-5 in the IBL, but also make it far less likely that you end up in the bottom 20.I may be in the middle of moving and not sure how internet situation and such will be when the (H) draft begins, so I may need a little help in drafting those picks.
Losing a late 1st rounder, but gaining a 4th, 5th, and 7th. So that should give me some solid depth.
Opps Just did this trade. Went big to secure Julio / Brown duo. Counting on ref to find a gem at 11.2. I think we can get away with it if we wait at QB. We're giving up Newton/Rodgers for Taylor/Flacco while upgrading Cobb/Marshall/DT type to Julio.From a team perspective, I love those kinds of moves.

Terrific depth makes it easy to finish in the top 25%. We aren't playing for money or an individual title, but a team title. If ten of us finish in the top 1/3, we win, even if none of us are in the top 5. Put another way: going 45-3 isn't THAT much more helpful to the team then going 36- 12, but shooting for 45-3 makes it much easier to end up 12-36...which is very hurtful to the team's chances. If you're going for 36-12, chances are pretty good that you'll be able to win at least 28 or so, and if we all go 28-20 or better, we win.
With that in mind, I love moving down a few picks in early-middle rounds (5-8 or 9) to move an 17th or 18th up into the 11th or 12th. I don't mind trading out of the first to move 8th and 9th rounders to 4th and 5th rounders.
Marshall is projecting out at 3.4. Glad you were able to get 6 spots out of the deal.Was eyeing Brandon Marshall at the 2.03B pick. But an offer came my way to move back one spot in B, but move up 6 spots from 6.03 to 5.09. So I did it. The guy took Jordy Nelson, and I still got Marshall.
With Fitzpatrick back and not picking again until 3.10, I'm comfortable with this.Marshall is projecting out at 3.4. Glad you were able to get 6 spots out of the deal.
Our season is only 11 weeks long. Pretty big risk taking someone in the first that's going to miss 40% of the seasonLeVeon plummeting in A
Agreed. Just seeing where he went in B and C I thought my thinking was wrong.Our season is only 11 weeks long. Pretty big risk taking someone in the first that's going to miss 40% of the season
I think Lamar was a great pick. Hope FBG ends up with several copies.Agreed. Just seeing where he went in B and C I thought my thinking was wrong.
The cost and having to go DeAngelo around the 6th turned me off of him for Lamar.
Nice job Rene. I think that 4/5 turn will be a sweet spot4.1G, 6.1G, 9.12G for 2.8, 9.5, and 11.5 in A
+4% to me
Bass no likey 4/5 turnI don't like the 4/5 turn and it's been traditionally a dead spot in these leagues and hard to move those picks.
Bass likey the 4/5 turn....Nice job Rene. I think that 4/5 turn will be a sweet spot
HmmmmmmBass likey the 4/5 turn....
see what I'm dealing with here boys
thought the same thing.....saw that Clash passed on ADP for both Maclin and Tate at the 2/3 turn and he had Julio on board.....ADP hard to pass up there IMO...Surprised to see Charles and ADP drop like rocks.
It's like the rules never changedthought the same thing.....saw that Clash passed on ADP for both Maclin and Tate at the 2/3 turn and he had Julio on board.....ADP hard to pass up there IMO...
Rene ponces on Charles at 3.05....thats pretty solid
Freeman dropping too....
Nice consolation prizes. I could easily buy into the argument that they'll be on par with the backs drafted in the first round.yeah, WRs are picked over at my 3.07 pick, but I'm looking at a choice between Doug Martin and Eddie Lacy to pair with David Johnson.
like that trade you madeAaron Rudnicki said:yeah, WRs are picked over at my 3.07 pick, but I'm looking at a choice between Doug Martin and Eddie Lacy to pair with David Johnson.
I really like Lockett. But before Baldwin....? Not so sure on that...Curious why Lockett before Baldwin.
I like him too. Figured he'd be a 4/5 turn target.I really like Lockett. But before Baldwin....? Not so sure on that...
But they DID change, and some are slow to pick up on the increased RB values. Stole Charles in the 3rd.It's like the rules never changed
any interest in dealing CJA?Aaron Rudnicki said:yeah, WRs are picked over at my 3.07 pick, but I'm looking at a choice between Doug Martin and Eddie Lacy to pair with David Johnson.
possibly. I only have 2 guys on my roster and lots of picks to go. what do you have in mind?any interest in dealing CJA?
we have 4.12 E or 5.01 E and some bumps later......saw you got CJA at 4.06 (very nice snag BTW)....we have been targeting him but blew our wad in moving up to snag Julio to pair with Brown who we will take at 1.01E so we dont' have a second or third round pick....it would really probably mean giving you the 4.12 and large bumps later till it made sense to you....bass would need to chime in here....possibly.

Woke up and logged on to find myself fresh OTC in A at 5.05....and HATING my options. Luckily was able to garner multiple offers. The only one giving me any real value came from Lambert:
His 5.11/7.11/10.2 for my 5.5/8.8/10.8
Unfortunately all still in A, but 4% my way per the Doddulator, and if I keep that 5.11 might end up with the same player I would have taken now anyway (Sanders or Hurns, but see DeSean as fairly equivalent). Hopefully I can lateral to a later draft and hope for a better WR. Also considered going QB....wanted to wait but guys like Luck and Wilson are still available.
After my moves thus far:
Started as 5A. Unused Picks: 4.01G, 5.11A, 6.01G, 6.08A, 7.05A, 7.11A, 9.12G, 10.02A, 12.08A, 13.05A, 14.08A, 15.05A, 16.08A, 17.05A, 18.08A
Ezekiel Elliot (1.5A), Jamaal Charles (3.05A),
Greg Olsen (4.08A)
Hyde available at 5.07a. Wish I swapped with you.Anyone interested in my 4.11 b
probably going Carlos Hyde
Love AllenThoughts on my upcoming turn in A?
Lamar Miller
Doug Martin
Keenan Allen
Tyler Lockett
Would love to see someone fall but my targets are slowly going.
Not really thrilled with anyone on the board right now.
