Thanks, that makes sense. Other owner sent me the initial offer of 2023 1st and 2nd on top of Knox, and I countered with Knox, Pollard and a 2nd. I'm hoping to find a way to bridge the gap w/o giving up a 1st. But I can't fault the other side for wanting/insisting on getting a 1st back.
I'd value him as a late first but I doubt you get him for that. The state of TE is just soooo bad.
Think it's definitely in the ballpark. Depends on make-up of the other team I think. If I'm looking to next year or am really weak at WR I take that for Barkley I think,
I was a doubter for most of the off-season before listening to what a few guys in here said and paying more attention. I drafted him in redraft at least.
Unless I could surely win now - I’d stick with your guys. Someday McLaurin will get a good QB - or maybe not.
Great trade if you can pull it off. There’s 20-30 “McLaurins” at WR right now and only a handful of RBs that can be league winners. Barkley is a potential league winner.
Yeah, I would rather gamble on Davis panning out then Samuel staying healthy. But it has been encouraging the amount of touches he has gotten to start the year.
This was a couple weeks ago but:
That's where I land too. I'm not a full believer and would love to flip Gabe (did in one league) for his perceived value. The only league I have him left in I also have Diggs though so he's got a lot more value to me as a handcuff now so I am probably riding him out there because I doubt someone steps up for him there.
Okay so for draft pick you would pay a 2023 second?
These are the kind of make-or-crush your team kinds of scenarios. You can't argue the results of the guy when he's on the field for sure, but he's also got no competition for targets yet. Jamison Williams is a huge wildcard for ASRB's future and Goff could end up playing just well enough that they keep him, go full ground and pound RBBC grind offense and now Hockenson, Williams, and ASRB are splitting a very small pie.
I'd pay a 2nd but only because I'd flip him for more later to the first guy that complained it was too cheap
The bold seems to be contradictory (at least to me). Are these salaries locked in for the years listed or do they still go up 10% per year? If they still go up what is the point of the contract years? (this is just for me to understand your format as I like to see how other leagues handle salary and contracts).

I figured that but what does it do with regards to the salary? Does it lock salary in for that duration so it doesn't escalate 10% per year?
The salary increases 10% per/year regardless. Makes for some interesting trade valuations if a player is stuck on a bad contract.
Don't want to hijak for too long so I will ask one more question. What is the point of awarding a long contract if the salary goes up anyway? In all the salary cap leagues I have seen the contract locks in the salary for that duration so it can't escalate but then puts the owner on the hook for the whole salary if he cuts a guy. That is the risk/reward. I just don't see the risk/reward here and why contract years matter. I must be missing something.
You can get a good player on a cheap, long term contract if you draft/get a FA bargain
Helps a lot building a competitive team.
QBs are not worth very much in 4 pts per TD and start 1QB in a 12 team league. It's hard for me to believe that there are still leagues that only give 4 pts for a TD in start 1QB leagues. I finally convinced the leagues I commish to give 6 pts to QBs. All of which are start 1QB leagues.
I'm probably way more bullish on Pierce than most, but personally I wouldn't move him for less than a 1.08-1.12 type of pick. Even that might be underselling him. He has all the tools to be a multi-year WR2 in FF, and has already flashed in several games. I may go as high as 1.06-1.08 for his range.
I saw similar value in my 12 Team 1QB league ... teams holding 4 "Starting Top 12 QB's", they want a high premium to move them. But I picked up Winston for a 3rd and Wentz for a 4th & Skylar Thompson off Waivers... Granted, I am in re-build so not a major issue / working on 2023 1.01 pick with my team ... But when I asked for Herbert to the team who owns Lamar, Burrow, Zach Wilson and Malik Willis, I offered an early 2nd.... he wanted MY "EARLY 1st & 2nd" ... HARD PASS.
I see Alec Pierce as mid-1st but Doubs as a 2nd as well. If Indy gets a reliable QB, Pierce will be WR1A-1B value
I'm selling the Slim Reaper for Pitts all day in Dynasty. Some day, Mariota will not be his QB and we will look back on this trade and laugh our way to championships.
I think "most dynasty" owners are looking at a specific window of opportunity. For me, last year, 2021, I looked at getting Draft picks in 2023 & 2024 to be competitive in 2025. So I have a 4 year window for my rebuild. But for a "Win Now" roster, that window needs to be shorter to ensure the strongest chance to take the crown - maybe 1-2 years based on roster age composition.
Believe it or not, it's called the "time value of money". Crazy, huh?
