I have both Parker and Ajayi sitting on the end of my bench. There's no way I give them up that cheaply.I had picks 6 and 10 in a league and would have loved to get a haul like Parker/Ajayi. Bad trade for the guy giving them up.
Yeah, makes no sense. At all. Most every other team in the league would have beat that deal for him. I already told him I would have given picks 4,9,21 for sure.I have both Parker and Ajayi sitting on the end of my bench. There's no way I give them up that cheaply.

Ouch. Ouch on the trade and ouch on your reasoning.
I would have taken the 1st even without Forte12 team PPR

Close one but picks side for me12 team dynasty (large rosters). Here is an example of a bad owner
Devante Parker and Jay Ajayi
for
Pick 6, pick 10, and Scott Chandler
I was not part of the deal, and would have blown picks 6 and 10 out of the water on a trade if I had any idea he was willing to deal those guys. Note to fantasy owners, it helps to mention you are thinking about dealing a player or two on the message board. This guy easily gets almost double this return if he does that.
Forte on other side and still give me the 1.I would have taken the 1st even without Forte
Didn't realize Sproles really had any value. Getting 3.9 is big.Quasi-rebuild, basically no depth anywhere But QB, 12 team.
Sent Sproles
Received 3.09
I'll take the picks. Though I could see Ajayis value rising enough this year for it to work out for the other team.Team A gave:
Jay Ajayi
Stephon Diggs
Team B gave:
2.10
2017 1st (pretty random, playoff team but older/risk guys like Big Ben/AP/Marshall he could drop quick).
I take Ajayi and Diggs...2 players that are underrated, but will get you better production than 2.10 and a late 1st next yearTeam A gave:
Jay Ajayi
Stephon Diggs
Team B gave:
2.10
2017 1st (pretty random, playoff team but older/risk guys like Big Ben/AP/Marshall he could drop quick).
This might be reasonable if team A is loaded at WR and desparate for a RB, while Team B is set at RB and weak at WR...12 TEAM dynasty ppr
Team A gets Pick 1.1
Team B gets Pick 1.2 plus Amari Cooper
It demonstrates a bad tradeThis might be reasonable if team A is loaded at WR and desparate for a RB, while Team B is set at RB and weak at WR...
Personally, I think its too much but it does demonstrate the value of the 1.1 and the steep drop after that this year.
It's one of the reasons I advocated making a strong offer (1.2 & 1.09) for the 1.01 rather than a weaker one (1.4 & 1.09) earlier in the thread.
He doesn'tDidn't realize Sproles really had any value. Getting 3.9 is big.
I would have moved Hurns then.1. I offered virtually the same trade to both the 1.02 and 1.03 holder. It was refused by both. If you ask me, this year, there is very little difference in the crapshoot that is 2-4 in the rookie draft. In my rankings, they all have questions, and they could all turn into studs. So, any of those trades would be about the same to me, other than being able to choose my WR vs having it chosen for me.
2. I believe Hurns has a ton of value because of Robinson. If Robinson were to go down, it hurts TWO WRs on my team, and probably the RB. I don't like laying that much on one player. So, I diversify. I don't ever want to have 3 parts in any offense unless (maybe) one is the QB. Its cool if you disagree with that, but it seems like legitimate concern I have read on these boards for years.
As with all trades. Time will tell.
Or just made a much better deal. Should have been super easy with RobiinsonI would have moved Hurns then.

Ameer has a higher upside than Tavon...I take that side.Gave tavon/1.05

I'll take Elliott, Watkins, and Cooks.14 team non-ppr. Start 1 RB 2 WR 1 TE 2 RB/WR/TE Flex.
A- gave up David Johnson, Ingram, Eifert, and Green-Beckham
B- gave up Elliott, S. Watkins and Cooks
Team getting Watkins in an absolute landslide. Arguably got the 3 best players in the deal.14 team non-ppr. Start 1 RB 2 WR 1 TE 2 RB/WR/TE Flex.

I would not go that far but easily like that sideWatkins for free?
I will. It is Watkis for Free.I would not go that far but easily like that side
I was going to say the same. I'm pretty high on Johnson and Eifert, so maybe others are not. I see the upside in DGB and I think Ingram is a more than solid option.I would not go that far but easily like that side
I'm sure many rank Johnson above Elliot (and in that case you'd be saying Ingram is worthless). I think they are pretty close after watching Johnson last season.I will. It is Watkis for Free.
Ellliot is close to David Johnson and Ingram maybe
Cooks is close to Eifert and DGB (unless it is TE premium which it does not say.
I would say Cooks for free, but I think if that side only had Elliot and Watkins it would be a clear win by a good amount
I take David Johson and Ingram over Elliot and I for sure take Eifert and DGB over Cooks in any format so not free Watkins to me but getting close to free Cooks.I'd have viewed Elliot and Watkins for Johnson, Ingram, Eifert and DGB in a non TE premium leagues as closer to an even trade than what went down but unless I had big time roster constraints would take the 4 players but would basically view it as even trade.I will. It is Watkis for Free.

Even non-ppr it is pretty lopsided. I would say it is about 75 percent of Cooks free. There needs to be something on that other side that is worth around a 2017 first from a borderline playoff team.humpback said:Did you guys see that it's non-ppr? I agree that the Elliott side wins, but I certainly don't see anyone as "free"- seems fairly close to me.
Unless there are some key details you didn't post I wouldn't trade the 1.2 straight up for ReedThis one just went down in my league this morning, not involved:
A) 1.2 + Jimmy Graham + Philip Dorsett for
B) Jordan Reed
I had the same offer from A this morning for my Eifert. Sat on it for a few hours and before I could fully decide, this went through.
Different league
A) 1.7 + Matt Jones
B) Devante Parker
I received Parker in this deal. Sent that offer out last Thurs night, forgot I did it, and the owner accepted once he saw Caroo get drafted by Miami. Definitely lost some value on my end, especially with Washington passing on RBs until late. Had good RB depth and needed the WR help though.
I guess that's the disconnect- I think the Johnson/Ingram combo is worth more than Elliott right now, so "could be" worth Elliott isn't even close to best case scenario IMO. The rankings I've seen recently have Johnson and Elliott very close (like one is #3 and the other #4), and Ingram is in the RB 8-10 range.In non ppr I think if you look best case scenario it could work out, dgb/eifert are more of a red zone type than cooks/Watkins, and Ingram/Dj could be worth ee. Of course you can't make trades expecting best case scenario.
zekeDraft picks only in this one. First 32 picks are rookies only, then veteran FAs are added in
Team A gets: #3, #17, #47 (15th "veteran" pick)
Team B gets: #1, #50, #98

Wrong forum.Appreciate the quick responses. I'm "B" and "A" indicated prior to the offer that he's not planning to trade the pick anyway, but I gave him an opening offer in case he reconsiders (and assuming he needs WR or QB more than he needs RB).
I'll have to look around for additional chips I could have ready.
First...why would someone post bogus trades?
2nd here is the link

Only took 1 page to get a schmuck to validatePeople frequently use this forum to post "completed" trades when really looking for feedback on offers they are thinking about making/accepting.
Save the guy the 2 seconds to laugh at and reject your terrible offer and then get outta here you're in the wrong place.Appreciate the quick responses.

ETA - this isn't pure dynasty, it's a contract league, so there are 32 veterans returned to the draft every year from expiring contracts, and only a limited number of veteran contracts per team, so #47 isn't worthless. For example, last year Jordan Reed went at the 50th pick.
