You'd have to really believe Big Ben is turning a major corner with those two big games for this to be even close to even in a 10 teamer that starts only 1 QB. I don't think he's suddenly turned into Drew Brees, so I'd take the pick by a mile here.10 team start 1QB
Roethlisberger + 3rd for 1st (likely 5-8)
I think I kinda like that better than what the FFPC does, which is a losers bracket. Mainly because most of the time teams dont own their own picks, and dont even care about bothering to set their best lineups or care at all if they win or lose those games. Whenever I own someones future 1st in that situation I have to bribe them by saying I will buy them a 12 pack of their favorite beer if they get me the #1 pick.Lottery picks are decided by the 6 teams out of 12 that don't make the playoffs. They are all equally put into a blind pool and picked from a hat/bag to determine next year's picks 1.01 through 1.06.
No. Only in leagues with 100% certainty owners stay forever.I'd be really interested to see if this could work for assigning rookie picks

We do something similar however it is weighted differently for the bottom six with the worst team having the best shot. This will sound silly but each team has a certain number of marbles (with the 6th place team having the most, the 12th place team having the least). The commissioner throws them into some incased ball that is turned by a handle. He turns it a few times and draws a marble out. Whatever team that is gets assigned the 6th overall pick and so forth. He does it live on skype so everyone can log in. It sounds goofy but has worked pretty well over the years. League has stayed intact for 19 years.Lottery picks are decided by the 6 teams out of 12 that don't make the playoffs.

Allen14 team, 0.5 PPR, 20 man roster dynasty league
Team A receives Christine Michael
Team B receives Keenan Allen
Team A is a contender that is absolutely loaded at WR (Thomas, Gordon, Benjamin, Cooks, etc) but doesn't have good RB prospects. Team B is in the playoff hunt, and Allen will compete for a flex spot (and has obvious long term, bounce back potential).
Well done.12 Team PPR.
My team is a playoff contender (I lost the championship game last season).
Gave: Keenan Allen, 2015 1st, 2016 1st
Received: Demaryius Thomas, 2015 3rd, 2016 3rd
New starting lineup:
QB1: Stafford
RB1: Lacy
RB2: Vereen / Jeremy Hill
WR1: Antonio Brown
WR2: Demaryius Thomas
WR3: Calvin Johnson
WR4: Brandon LaFell
TE1: Gates
I'll take the picks.Really odd one. Two teams not in contention:
Montcrief
For
2015 1 (9-12) & 2015 2 (9-12)
I love Gronk, but I will take the other side.12 Team PPR QRRWWTKD + Flex +SuperFlex, TE Premium
Gave: Kelce, 2015 1.01 (for sure), another 2015 1st (mid...let's say 1.07)
Got: Gronk, 2015 2nd (mid/early)
I like the Gio side, but it is close.12 team PPR
Gave: L. McCoy and S. Jackson
Got: Gio and Spiller
Gates and the 3rd. I think Gates has more productive years left than Mathews.10 team .5 PPR 2Q 3W 3R 2T 1F
Team A traded: Antonio Gates + 2015 3rd (very likely 3.01)
Team B traded: Ryan
Team getting Gates was TE thin thanks to Cameron, and is currently on top of the leader board.

Julio is a good but low, this isn't buying low. Next year this trade might look fair if the Falcons fix their line, but it is an overpay right now.Henry Ford said:B, in my opinion. By a whole lot.12 team - PPR - Start 1q/2r/3w/1t
Team A receives: Julio Jones
Team B receives: Brandon Cooks, 2015 1st rd pick (Projected to be 1.07 or 1.08, 10% chance it's a lottery pick (1.01 through 1.06)), 2015 1st round pick (Projected to be a lottery pick)
Team A needs a WR1 and he has a solid contender for the year.
Team B is projected to miss the playoffs so he will have a lottery pick next year. Has a solid core of young WRs on his team (Evans, Odell, Latimer, Mike Floyd, Gordon) Could use RB help (only has Lacy and Lamar Miller, rest scrubs)
Who wins?
You won't get Moncrief for less IMO. I doubt you can get him for just a pick in the 1.9-1.12 rangeI really like Montcrief, but this feels like an overpay.jeaton6 said:Really odd one. Two teams not in contention:

Give me the picks.Team A Rebuilding for next year
gives ADP and a 4th rounder
Team B 3rd place overall
gives Devonta Freeman, a 2015 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
ADP worth that for a contending team.Give me the picks.Team A Rebuilding for next year

There's no guarantee that he's playing again this year, and the fact that he skipped the meeting with the NFL yesterday makes his availability this year even more uncertain. Who knows where he plays next year, so I don't think it's worth it even for a contender.ADP worth that for a contending team.Give me the picks.Team A Rebuilding for next year

I agree, but 2015 is another strong draft class and it isn't like Montcrief is helping this year. If you had your 2015 rookie draft right now I doubt Montcrief cracks the top 10.2014 is not the same as 2015.I don't see how that is possible.

Team/league specifics aside, this seems about right for Moncrief. Certainly possible that it is a slight overpay currently, but if he is starting next year if Wayne retires and/or Nicks isn't resigned - then you would be able to recoup this investment easily.I agree, but 2015 is another strong draft class and it isn't like Montcrief is helping this year.

No chance of Rivers or Big Ben because their owners wanted too much for them. All playoff teams have a top QB and I needed one to compete. Spiller to me is the only wild card but dont see him doing much more than RBBC next year. I wanted a shot this year and willing to take the chance. I won this week which has clinched a playoff spot for me.jeaton6 said:Ok but why give up so much? Couldn't you have gotten a rivers or Big Ben for much less.

Martin and Spiller will most likely be on new teams next year which could help them a lot. With the Bradshaw injury, TRich gets another chance to be the guy again.

that's a lot of speculation, most of which is unlikely. Of Spiller, Martin and Rich, chances are pretty good that none of these guys are ever difference makers and continue to disappoint. It's more likely that Peyton is a difference maker for an otherwise strong team for the next 56 weeks, maybe longer.Martin and Spiller will most likely be on new teams next year which could help them a lot.

I agree that it's unlikely any of those guys ever become more than RB2's or most likely flex guys on championship teams, but I feel like you could receive a lot more in return if you traded away each of those guys individually.
I know it's not the most likely thing to happen but Peyton could retire after this year. Imagine if you traded all that away for 4-5 weeks of Peyton Manning.
