Amari Cooper's Dynasty Value???? (1 Viewer)

What is a fair trade value for Amari in PPR dynasty?  Was offered a late rookie first round pick (1.08-1.12).  Is this fair given how badly he has played this year? 

Edit: What if he adds Kelvin Benjamin to go with that late first?

I'd hang onto him. Why take a chance on a rookie when you know his role is secure with the Raiders. If the trade offer was a little bit higher I would consider it.

Agreed. A single late first is not enough for cooper. given his age at 23 he is still very young. Most wrs dont fully develop until 25. This season is odd for him given his production his first two seasons, but with his age and talent he has time to fine tune his skill set. 

 a season ag several names in my draft rookie at the 1.08 to 1.12 range were D Booker, Prosise, Boyd, and Dixon. The year before it was Duke Johnson, Perriman, and DGB. After the 1.05 its a crap shoot. 

 
At this point I think his value is starting to swing the other way (negatively) so you won't get anything of real value for him and he has enough flashes of talent that he could get there eventually.  As was pointed out earlier he is still young but he will have to become much more consistent to be considered an every week starter.  I just think at this point you won't get any reasonable offers as everyone that wants to acquire him will want to with low ball offers.

 
How about Cooper for Kelvin Benjamin and a late rookie first?  Both are struggling this year. Both have had some success. Both are young. Cooper has a higher ceiling.

I probably wouldn't do it but I wouldn't have a problem if you believe in Benjamin.  I don't believe he will be more than a WR2/3 and that is if things go well. 

 
Just for dynasty perspective I have a strong contending team who has been beaten up by injuries the last two weeks and I traded Cooper and Trent Taylor for Alshon Jeffrey and Crabtree today.  Other owner out of it and rebuilding.

I don't think that is even close for Cooper. He's a big time talent, who is having a down year. Same thing happened to Evans 2 years ago, and Hopkins last year. Sometimes it just happens to young WR's. I still think Cooper is a top-10 dynasty WR.

Benjamin means little to me. He's a mid 2nd round caliber player. Very telling that Carolina's offense instantly improved by him leaving.
