Has anyone bought on Roddy White? (1 Viewer)

If so, what is the price you are paying? Team A in my league is offering Roddy White and a 6th for Justin Blackmon. PPREC Dynasty.

 
I bought him as a package deal from somebody who needed a RB and WR for this weekend...M. Williams/McGahee for White/Mathews. They were both bench players so I easily pulled the trigger just in case he comes back and produces. I have both White and Harvin waiting in the wings. I hope one of them can produce better than Fitzgerald.

 
I gave Pryor for White. Limited keeper league. Pryor could be a keeper for the other guy, wouldn't have been one for me. Most teams don't need QBs, so Pryor was not going to command huge value, and I don't need White immediately (please sit out until hammy is 100%). But if/when he comes back, he replaces my WR3 committee of Randle/Hilton/Hopkins.

 
In a dynasty league, I thought he was being undervalued, so I bought him last week. I'm glad I did, because I am a Julio owner. Here's the trade (19 Player Rosters, Start 3WR, PPR):

I give: Knile Davis, Terrance Williams, and a presumably late 1st Rounder in 2015

I get: Roddy White and Austin Pettis

I also have Calvin and Fitz, so I really need him to get healthy.

 
Sold dbowe and deandre Hopkins to get him in redraft.

Have TY Hilton, Antonio Brown, and jordy so I thought I could afford it.

 
Back in Week 2 I traded Lamar Miller for Roddy. Haven't need him too bad yet, but could use him in Week 8.

I'm confused. Wouldn't this be an example of someone selling Roddy White?

I gave cutler for roddy.. 2qb league... before the jones news.

Having some buyers remorse.
:confused:

You gave up a borderline QB1 in a start 2 QB league, for an injured and at best, WR2/3? Regardless of the Jones news, that doesn't look good.

I agree that Cutler in a 2QB league has a lot of value, I would not agree that White is at best a WR2/3. When healthy he is capable of low end WR1 numbers with or without Jones playing.

Two seperate issues here.

First I don't think Roddy is worth Cutler in a 2QB. Cutler is having a dang fine season and has an emerging threat in Alshon. Roddy is banged up right now it probably won't help in the immediate future. When he comes back he may or may not be ok.

However I don't think the Julio news hurts Roddy one bit. In fact I think it has a net positive on Roddy's stats.

 
Week leading up to Julio's injury in a 12 team ppr dynasty I traded DeAngelo Williams, Emmanuel Sanders & Zach Ertz for Roddy White, Joseph Randle & Lance Dunbar. I know its pre-injury trade but I'm sure that deal wouldn't go down today post injury.

Got him incredibly cheap before the Julio/Wilson injuries, and couldn't be happier, even before the injuries:

Give: David Wilson, Edelman, 2014 7th

Get: Roddy, 2014 4th

 
I inquired. White owner asked for Demaryius Thomas: "Thomas has a lot of competition in Denver for the ball."
