****OFFICIAL DYNASTY TRADES**** (43 Viewers)

I see it more as "this was one terrible awful horrible no-good trade" - I don't think it's an indictment of the FF community's love for Toney in general. Most of the deals I've seen on here involving Toney have been pretty reasonable. 
The ones I have seen are reasonable, if high on Toney.  If looking at him unbiasedly, I would say a lot of them seem like overpays to me.  He still has Danny Dimes throwing him the ball and still has problems staying on the field.  It just seems like he is getting a ton of love that he may not have earned yet.  He probably has a ton of upside though too but seems like a lot of people don't recognize the downside at all or the fact that he could be closer to the down side than the upside.

That is all fair. I know a couple of these trades in here have been mine, and also @menobrown. We have both acknowledged the risk and yeah it really could be a crash and burn but I think we love the upside enough to take that shot. And I really don't think Jones is the guy either but I am betting on talent over situation here. As situation goes, at *present* he has no impendiment to being the #1 target and combined with his talent, it is well within the margin of possibilities that he is extremely *underpriced* right now. But your concerns are super valid and at least according to market you are probably right about these being overpays, even if just a little.

Sidenote I took Toney in two back to back TriFlex startups this past week. Once at 9.03 and again at 8.07. Other WRs in that area included Aiyuk, G Davis, Mooney, Juju, Renfrow. Bateman came off one before. Sutton, Claypool, Nuk, nearby. *shrugs*

You guys could totally be right and I have no problem paying a little for upside you believe in but Kelce and including something else for him is just too far for me.

I'd take him over some of those guys but definitely would take some of them over him.  The previous trades I was cool with.  This one just seems bad to me.  Although, I rarely rebuild.  More of a retool type of manager.

 
FFPC 1QB this is the first trade I've made since cuts happened

I gave 1.03, 2023 3rd, 5.10
I got 1.02

I think that is a screaming deal to move up that spot. Right now I think there is a clear tier break there but if I'm wrong I will still end up preferring the 1.02 by a bit.


all day long and twice on Sundays.  I have a 1.04 that I'd love to bump up to the 1.02 or 1.03 but I can't even get their attention
I haven’t looked at rookies at all yet but I’d love to see both of your top 3-5 or so with tier breaks. According to FBG rookie rankings, there’s a clear 1.1 but then the next 3 are all in a tier

Oh yeah no I think that Kelce one was really bad. Not close at all.

Mine is:

1 Hall

2 Walker
3 Burks

Wilson
London
Jameson Williams
Olave
(will likely rearrange this tier after we see draft position and landing spots). 

I've got the 1.04 and don't really want to pick at the top of that third tier, so I'll either try and move back to 1.06 or 7, or up into the top 3.

They're wrong. I'm right. 

JK I don't know but there is a guy I want at 1.02 and for me there is Hall in one tier and then my 1.02 in another and then a two-player tier. Then from 1.05 it is a bit of a mess but I have my thoughts there too. I've looked quite a bit deeper at these rookies now than I had even a couple weeks ago. Doing a startup is a great exercise for that, plus the outfit I'm working with did a big rookie mock where we each did a write up on each pick. So I have managed to soak up a bit but of course the NFL draft will be giant. I like to try and draft them or trade (up) for them before their ADP jumps. I will have some cheap misses but I will hit some home runs hopefully. The jump from 1.03 to 1.02 may not mean a dang thing in the end, but it might mean quite a lot. Guess we will see.

Love it because I do have a top two tier.

 
Zealots, PPR, IDP, 1 QB

Team A gets:   Zeke, 4.02

Team B gets:  2.01, 3.02, Drue Tranquill
Hard to say because I don’t play IDP and so I don’t know the value of Drue Tranquill. Probably why others also weren’t sure what to say. But, valuing Zeke at a late 1st and assuming Drue adds some value, it must be fair to good.

 
I know last year (even before his sophomore season) before the draft, in my league, he went for 1.01 (Harris) and a 22 1st that was projected middle but ended up being 1.09.  I'd have to get paid off to trade him.  Too bad I moved him his rookie year before he blew up.  Hate my life sometimes but I did get the chip out of it.
We can attend therapy together as I too traded him before he blew up after drafting him at 1.07 in the rookie draft. I can’t even physically type what I received in that trade so I feel your pain.

 
12 team ppr QB/2RB/3WR/TE/FL

Team A gave up 

  • Ryan, Matt IND QB; 
  • Jackson, Justin LAC RB;
  • Year 2023 Round 2 Draft Pick from Team A;
  • Year 2023 Round 4 Draft Pick from Team A
Team B gave up

  •  Jones, Daniel NYG QB; 
  • Jones, Ronald KCC RB;
  • Year 2022 Draft Pick 3.01

  • Ryan, Matt IND QB; 
  • Jackson, Justin LAC RB;
  • Year 2023 Round 2 Draft Pick from Team A;
  • Year 2023 Round 4 Draft Pick from Team A
Team B gave up

  •  Jones, Daniel NYG QB; 
  • Jones, Ronald KCC RB;
  • Year 2022 Draft Pick 3.01
In a 1-QB league I have a hard time seeing either DJ or Ryan as rosterable assets.

that leaves me with RoJo/2022 3.01 for Jackson/‘23 2nd & ‘23 4th

Gimme the side with the 2x 2023 picks.

Sign me up for that therapy session. Traded Jefferson  after week one of his rookie season after taking him at 1.8 and most valuable player I got back was Michael Thomas.

I drafted tons of Justin Jefferson at the end of the 1st round (even a couple in the beginning of the 2nd in SF) but after that week 1 I did trade a couple shares. One of them ended up getting me a piece that by dumb luck brought me the ship in that league later that year. His name was David Johnson and I got hosed in the deal. Which is to say I was the one that turned the hose on and stepped in front of it. I just looked it up and yeah it is painful to type. This was FFPC SF:

I gave Jefferson and a 3rd
I got David Johnson, Justin Jackson, 4th

Ouch, you might win the loss on this one.

Now this is not quite the same thing as trading Jefferson but I had a league with picks 3,4, 6 and 8 and I traded 3/8 for 1.1.  I always had Jefferson in a tier by himself as player 8 and every single draft I did the top 7 went in the top 7 so I know without any doubt, not after the fact analysis, I would have picked Swift at 3 and JJ at 8. Instead I got CEH at 1.1. Thats probably worse but not a direct trade..

The actual JJ trade I did was one of my biggest trades ever, was after week one of 2020.

I gave Kyler Murray, Jefferson, Noah Fant, and my projected late 2021#1 and #2 which did end up as pick 11.

I got Mahomes, Michael Thomas, Dallas Goedert and some back end old WR depth scraps that were cut soon after.

My goal was just to get Mahomes on a team I had Kelce, Tyreek and CEH and it turned into something bigger.

 
IDP PPR, 16 teams

A gave up Woods, Robert TEN WR; Oliver, Ed BUF DT; 2022 pick 67

B gave up Davis-Gaither, Akeem CIN LB; 2022 picks 29 and 50

Not really much to get excited about here being 1QB. The 2023 2nd is the most desirable asset here so I guess I’ll take that side. 

 
I would rather gamble on greatness, which I’m convinced isn’t Gibson at this point.
I'm on the same side here.  I think I take the 1.2 but honestly would have preferred to wait until the NFL draft to make this trade.  The guy that got Gibson, isn't the best evaluator of talent and I think he dreads the draft when he has high picks.  Seems scared to make mistakes so it worked for both teams but I like the pick side personally but get both arguments.

Glad I'm not alone.  I got him at 1.08 and way overpaid to get Kelce in the deal that year.  It sucks but you move on.  I hope you at least finished in the money that year to make it worth it.

Ouch.  That hurts big time.  I traded Jefferson/CEH/Fant/a future 2nd (ended up becoming 2.4)/a late 3rd/my top waiver spot (he used on Ahmed when Gaskin was hurt).  I got Kelce/Josh Jacobs.

14 team 1QB

Gave 2.01, 23 early 2nd (likely very early lol).

Got 23 likely late first, 4.08 

Downside- gave up 2.01 this year to move up one spot next year.

Upside- moved up toward the 1.08-1.10 in 23 from my likely pick at 15-16

Edit- his team is Taylor, Chase, Jefferrson, Higgins, Gallup etc, but he's relying on Lawrence/Watson and Friermuth and if Taylor goes down, he has Hines and not much else.

So there's a few paths for his team to be champ but he's pretty heavily Watson/Taylor dependent.

What did I miss? 
ETA: ah, I see it was an old trade. Ouch. Sorry bro. 
Yeah I'm like "are you sure?" Jefferson side huh. Wild. 

Yeah old trade. I kept 7/9 shares of him overall I think. And in that one I actually won the ship (and needed DJ to do it) but that is like going all-in with 7-2 against pocket Aces and sucking out. I mean the rest of my team was super strong but dang that trade sucks.

I love it! Send me those 2023 1st round picks. I want all of them.

 
12 team superflex

team A- Javonte

team B- 1.01, 2.05
Interesting deal. I may be in the minority but gimme Javonte.

I’ll sacrifice getting that 2022 2.05 to get the RB that I 1. Have seen play in the pros, 2. Know where he’s playing & think he’s on a good team.

Hall is a nice player, but the unknowns tip this to JaWill.

Don't see why he made this trade but rookie fever gets to us all at some point. Likely a push for him except the talent pool seems deeper next year. Again, one of those trades that they should have made on the clock if his guy is there. I like it from your side as those 2023 picks are like gold right now.

One of my thoughts on the bolded, is to use those 2023 picks to acquire a good player at a little bit of a discount or at least get an extra year of production. I have no issue moving a future first for proven production.

 
I’m in 3 leagues and I have 3 of them ;)
I’m still not sure if I want to make 6 picks, or see how I’m feeling after 4 & maybe try to deal the last 2 at a profit. Won’t know until I get there. My only real job now is to suck enough to get that 1.01, which shouldn’t be difficult given my skeletal roster.

Did a few things over the last few days all 12 team SF PPR TE 1.5 start 11

Gave Matt Ryan - my qb 3

Got Leonard Fournette

Gave 1.02 and 2.06

Got Deebo and Lenny

Gave 1.06 and 3.06

Got Mike Evans and Brandin Cooks

The last two are me making moves on teams that can win and not wanting to try to guess right on this draft class.  I like the Deebo deal a lot, I understand not everyone loves Evans and Cooks but it is a start 11 and depth in your lineup is important to me in that format.

Ok, TE Premium, 16 team league I get: it still feels like a lot for Kittle, given the QB change, and his injury history. 

But that said, he’s potentially worth it. I can’t say I wouldn’t pay that in your format. But it doesn’t feel like a bargain. 

As an aside, I’d be tempted to not make that deal, and instead make a smaller one to ensure that I’d be in a position to draft Michael Mayer (ND) next year. But that’s me.

I am in win now mode and don't really want to waste another year of Jonathan Taylor or Dalvin Cook on my roster.  My team was #3 in regular season last year but didn't sniff a championship finishing 5th place (we play a 6 team 3 week playoffs).

Reason was poor QB play (Tannehill) and mostly getting zero after zero at TE.  Logan Thomas, Ricky Seals Jones and Eric Ebron didn't cut it last year.  Nothing on waiver wire.  So options were go out and get an elite TE to try and compete or waste more years of Taylor and Cook.

You do what you have to do to try and win.

That context helps. If you’re an immediate contender, it’s probably a good move to go for it.

I’’m just a little worried about Kittle’s numbers dropping with Lance, but that’s just because I haven’t seen it yet. As a Niner fan I sure hope it’s gangbusters.

I like all 3 trades for you personally. 
As a Win Now owner of Evans, I dig that last deal for you (and I bought Cooks  in another league for a 3.8, so fully support that value as well)

and I think I’d do the "guarantee” of a young Deebo over the 1.2 this year. 
nice stuff.

I would love this type of return as I am shopping Kittle currently. Personally, I would have gone and tried to acquire Dalton Schultz whose production might be on par with or even better than Kittle over the next 2-3 seasons but with a much lower perceived value can probably be had for half the cost.

 
16 team league (we can only trade current year picks)

I gave 2022 1.08 and 2.09

I got 2022 1.04

I already have 1.01 so I want a chance at J.Williams at 1.04....I think Walker and I hope one of G.Wilson/Burks/London go in between my 2 picks...
