People are already jumping off the MHJr train eh? The trade makes sense, especially if the 2026 1st is late. As a Kyle Pitts owner, I wish I was quick to cut my losses.
MHJr looks bad but Kyler isn't helping things. Marvin Harrison Jr was so good in college and it's hard to see him busting - So, I lean Harrison Jr side but it's a fair trade all the way around.

Deebo looks like he has a few years left in the tank. Have you watched him this year? Truly a dude in need of a different scene. He looks rejuvenated.

Deebo will be 30 at the end of the season in a contract year. He plays hard and I love him for it, but I think it's a pretty fair assertion that he doesn't have much left in the tank in a dynasty perspective.

FFPC 1QB - our sharkpool league
I gave Nabers, 2026 2nd (mine)
I got Barkley, 2026 1st (@FreeBaGeL)
I am currently 2 seed and been a contender last couple years but whatever it's only week 5 and my WR corps just took a big hit and this trade doesn't do anything for it
Bagel is the current 4 seed and #1 in the league in points scored but there is at least a world where this becomes an early 1st for me. Getting rid of Barkley doesn't exactly improve their odds but otherwise this seems fair. Nabers has a very high chance of coming back strong for many more years and Barkley has a ticking clock at best right now but gives me RB strength that I need badly. And there is also a world where I miss the playoffs and they make it and the difference between the picks becomes very minimal. For me that is always part of the fun of big FFPC trades. Because the toilet bowl competes for rookie picks. Anyway cheers, good deal.

I gave Jake Ferguson + 2027 4th
I got 2026 2nd (probably mid)
I had Kraft, Hockenson, Ferguson, & Juwan Johnson so just trying to sell some depth and pick up a draft pick here and there. Waiting patiently for a good game from Hock so I can ship him off too

very good job liquidating there. save a roster spot, stack another 2nd into your draft capital and still likely dominate or at least win at a position of strength.
InDitkaWeTrust
Footballguy
100% contender move and I like it for you. Saquon for Nabers is a 1 for 1 replacement of current points. There's a lot of questions in Nabers' future and I don't want any part of them if I'm contending right now. The fact that you got a 1st for 2nd swap out of it as well mitigates the potential future negative point value. Now, go get that 'ship!
Seems pretty even. Like that you got a 27 instead of 26.

I got Flowers for Maye in my 12 team 1 QB 0.5 PPR league back in week 1.
Overall really happy with it. But losing Burrow, I wouldn't hate it if I still had Maye.
FreeBaGeL

I was on the other side of this trade. On paper the trade makes little sense for me. Currently in contention (leading the league in points) with a team that is quite deep at wr and VERY thin at RB (Saquon, Dobbins, Charbs) so now my RB cupboard is completely bare.
That said, I am very much a risk taker in FF and very much believe in acquiring studs/true difference makers. For me, this was an opportunity to buy into a player I am high on that probably would not have been possible otherwise. Yes there are long-term concerns with Nabers, but I am willing to take those on.
I also have been a lifelong Saquon stan but I am starting to move off him some in FF now. I think people are overlooking his poor efficiency (3.1ypc, 5 yards per catch) this year a bit because the fantasy numbers have still been okay with volume and TDs. But remember, the concern with him is what guys look like after a high-touch season late in their careers, and from an efficiency standpoint he is sliding right into that bucket.
Of course, a big part of that is the Philly offense (see: AJB) but I think we could be on the precipice of a big value drop for Saquon here soon. If he finishes this year at 3.X ypc his value is going to drop pretty hard heading into his age 29 season coming off a year like that. The narrative builds itself. And sooner than that he's a risky hold as between that, his prior injury history, and his age an even minor or medium sized injury is going to have a huge affect on his value and could drop it fast.
I thought you crushed that trade.
Barkley's a 28 year old RB who looks a bit tired after his massive usage last year and this draft class looks pretty weak outside of probably first few picks.
JohnnyU
Footballguy
I agree. Perfect opportunity to sell Barkley and take the risk with Nabers.
InDitkaWeTrust
Footballguy
Understandable on all accounts.
My perspective is to ALWAYS give yourself a chance to win the 'ship if you can. I think Saquon does that for @barackdhouse. He's getting strong point contribution to his squad NOW as well as getting future, liquid, draft capital. As I said earlier that somewhat mitigates the risk of trading away Nabers for him in the future.
From your side of the trade, I think you've significantly reduced your chances of contention until at least 2027. Assuming perfect surgery/rehab, Nabers won't be back until well into the 2026 season. He very likely won't be 100% until 2027. So you've locked in a non-productive asset for essentially 2 years. You've also traded away your 2026 1st (in a supposedly down draft) giving you minimal liquid assets to acquire a difference maker (through trade or draft) at RB, where you have strong need. Once Nabers is 100%, the rest of your roster is 2 years older and may or may not contribute at the level they are now.
Not bagging on you or your trade AT ALL here. Just sharing my perspective. If I have Nabers on a contending team, I am 100% trading him NOW while his value is still very high for a contributor who can produce NOW so my squad stays in contention. If I can get draft assets as well, that's the cherry on top. GL on the season and I'm really curious how this all turns out come playoff time!

12 tm SF, 1PPR but no TEP
Gave: Sam Darnold
Got: Tucker Kraft
Darnold was my QB3 (now it's Fields), and my only viable TE was Andrews. The other guy was loaded at TE (still has LaPorta, H Henry, Juwan) but had no QB2 at all so one of those classic "helps both sides" deals.

FFPC SF (not involved)
Team A gets; Josh Allen, Javonte Williams, Godwin, 2026 2nd
Team B gets: Jeanty, Egbuka, Mooney, 2026 1st
Oddly, both teams are contenders, currently the 3rd and 4th seeds but Team B already lost Burrow and Nabers and now has Purdy as his only starting QB.

I don't think either of you are wrong about Barkley here. It is definitely part of the risk on my side and I'll consider myself happy if he helps me earn the ship this year or compete for it and I'll be disappointed if I don't but the 1st does help mitigate the whole thing. But no strong argument here about Barkley other than I think he is special and it's only been a few weeks. Though he *is* falling into that inefficiency bucket on paper, I think he is passing the eye test for me and I do think AJ Brown is a problem for the Eagles. But honestly I'll take the volume and accumulation stats for the boxscore wins (if it plays out like that).
I am just as weak at WR as the moment Nabers tore his ACL though. I still believe WR is king in FFPC and I will need to improve there if I'm going to bring in the ship. Anyway I really do see the Nabers side of this, and I didn't wanna say it too loud but I agree with Bagel's assessment of his team. And I would actually consider it a likely early 1st at this point.
FreeBaGeL
Footballguy
All totally fair points. Seems like we've got some folks on both sides, which I guess means it worked out as most trades should.
FreeBaGeL
Footballguy
I love this for Team B.
Josh Allen is one of my top sells in SF unless you're a top team this year. He's a soon to be 30 year old running QB with a violent running style that takes huge hits. He's getting up to the age that running QBs start to fall off, then you consider that any shoulder ding or turned ankle that makes the coaches stop letting him run as much and much like Saquon, the narrative can change quickly (see: Cam Newton, etc).
FreeBaGeL
Footballguy
Damn that's some grade A trash talk!
I think it's likely that when we approach this in the coming offseason Saquon/1.12 won't come close to fetching Nabers/2.11 (after I wipe the floor with barack in the title game, of course
).

Buried the lede here.
Ok so this trade is pretty cray on my part but I sort of love it. FFPC TriFlex which means we are required to start 3WR, no D or K. But still a SF spot and two additional flex spots in the starting lineup. So WRs on the waiver are pretty thin compared to other FFPC leagues that only are required to start 2. And in these we *could*start as many as 6 if so inclined (or forced to).
And I felt forced to do this trade in order to stay competitive, for this week and for the season. And I *think* ironically that the trade works if I decide this season is a lost cause. Sitting 1 VP out of playoff picture ATM but decent squad. I need to be competitive in week 5 though, a couple VPs would be really nice. Pulling off a miracle and getting 4 VPs would be great because I have:
Swift, Odunze, Golden, Metcalf, and Pitts on bye. Tracy is OUT but not on IR. Mike Evans is OUT but not on IR. That is 7 of 10 bench spots and the other 3 are taken up by A Rodgers who I need to compete now and am not dropping (he is also on bye regardless), Arroyo and T Ferguson neither of whom I'm ready to give up on yet and that's 10 bench spots. ARichardson also not dropping.
Anyway that left me with nobody to legally plug in at RB2, nor WR2 nor WR3. Boutte the scrub I thought might be something is literally the only startable receiver this week. Besides what I can find on the wire but get this - there is nobody I'm willing to drop. I drop Boutte to get a RB maybe but then I'm down *three* empty WR spots. Ok and if you are actually following along with this, I have QB1 and SF both filled (D Jones and Tua), Gibbs at RB1, with a crappy trio of Strange, Kelce and Schultz to fill out TE1 and both flex spots.
Ok so anyhow drumroll please:
I gave Mike Evans, Jennings, Tracy, 2026 3rd
I got K Miller, Shakir, T Thornton, 2026 2nd (looks early AF to me non-related owner though)
guess I could have started Jennings if he plays but he might not and he might be garbage if he does. Thornton immediately lost his job to Worthy last week but Miller and the 2nd make this for me. Shakir is my plug and play this week that I don't hate and I'm going to cross my finger on Thornton and Boutte doing something.
So anyway I'm going to get minimal production at best for this week from this trade, but I'm guessing it will be in the neighborhood of:
RB2 - Miller + 9.0 pts
WR1 - Shakir +9.0 pts
WR3 - Thornton + 5.0 pts
Ok so was this trade worth getting around 20 more points in my boxscore this week? Presuming I don't make more trades or waiver pickups? Still don't know who I would drop and Boutte at least is playing v Bills they'll have to throw a lot I guess. I like Miller to get a larger and larger role as Kamara eventually fades so from a pure dynasty standpoint I love moving from Evans and Tracy. Shakir is a decent dart throw flex I don't like having him as one of my top 3 WRs but it's just until next week when Odunze Metcalf and maybe Golden come back to my lineup. But I more or less think of Shakir as a roster clogger. Thornton will be easy enough to drop. I think the 2nd swings it in my favor easily and that moving Jennings is what I consider the cost of doing business. He is 28 and falling apart. But if he plays tomorrow I'd probably wish I'd had him. Ok pressing post now.

I don't think you got enough. Corum and Davis are fluff most likely. As for the the 1st and 2nd in 2026, it helps that your league is going to superFlex in 2026 because of a strong QB class (otherwise weak class), but IMO, even that isn't enough for Achane and Mason. I think you should have gotten 2 first round picks instead of the mid to late 2nd.

I tend to agree. Love the idea of moving on from RBs in a rebuild, but it seems light for Achane.

Devy league. Full PPR
I gave Jeremiah Love and what should be a lower 2026 2nd rounder
I received Marvin Jr and Trey Benson.
Still a believer in Jr and needed some additional pieces to truly compete this year. Plus both players and young, so willing to roll the dice.
Of course Benson goes to IR the day after the trade

12 team 1QB TEP. I probably overpaid, but it's a start-3 WR league and my WR room was in bad shape with injuries/byes and generally uninspiring performance.
Gave: Kyren Williams, 2026 1st (should be 10-12)
Got: Devonte Smith, Davante Adams
My WRs before the trade were Lamb (hurt), DJ Moore (bye), Doubs (bye), Wan'Dale, Boutte, Thornton with the bolded being my likely starters this week
My RB room is still decent: Saquon, Achane, Mason/Jones most weeks
Hoping to make a playoff push at least this year before I have to rebuild.

Appreciate feedback .. but the market would not part with more for Achane ... I was shopping him for 2 weeks ...
This was the best offer I could negotiate. With the option of only needing to start 1 RB, value is limited. Saq went for a late 1st & 3rd not long ago for a rebuild
JohnnyU
Footballguy
I prefer the Kyren Williams late 1st side long term, but I get it that your WR room needs help. I don't think Smith and Adams will make the difference for you this year. Will they help? Sure, but they aren't league winners. Your RB room is probably fine, but Barkley is underachieving right now. I love Barkley and he should pick up the pace some. In ppr leagues Adams ranks around 14 and Smith 40. Is that good enough considering how bad your WRs are without Lamb right now? One other thing, in dynasty I'd rather lose a week than make trades just to fill a bye week or short term injury issues, but that's just me.
JohnnyU
Footballguy
Sometimes it's best to swallow the urge to trade for what the market will bear if it's not enough.
InDitkaWeTrust
Footballguy
Yeah, maybe that's the play here. I can also think of a lot of situations where Achane's value sharply decreases from where it is right now, though. He's an asset that's in opposition to @Birdie048 's "goal" of maximizing his own pick in 2026.
JohnnyU
Footballguy
I'm not trying to say it's a bad trade, it isn't, but I'm just saying what I would have wanted in the deal. That doesn't make it right or wrong.
Birdie048
Footballguy
Good points all ... But my belief is that the MIA offense will have struggles after this week vs CAR #21 Run Def.
They have faced all lower tier Run Defenses so far and the issues of Mia OL create pause on any fantasy value going forward.
Their next 3 opponents are all Top 5 Run Defense and I expect Achane's value to drop.
I also see Ollie Gordan getting more touches as the season moves forward limiting Achane's production.
If the season gets lost, will they heavily run Achane? I have doubts.
And yes, I did try for 2 x 1st ... but negotiated /opted for the 2 x 2nds as a replacement for the other late 1st. My team needs volume of youth and talent. It worked for me.
JohnnyU
Footballguy
I think Achane's receiving will offset any loss in run production against good run defenses.

Held to long. Have been trying a competitive rebuild with this team and it's actually gone really well the past two years but it's been some smoke and mirrors kind of stuff and I just suffered a ton of injuries the past two weeks. So despite being a rock solid playoff team as of today I've decided to lean totally into the rebuild phase and can the competitive part of it. Only thing I care to win the next this season and next is 1.01.
