The idea that one of the many very good young receivers in a deep pool of talent in the league today is worth more than maybe the best and youngest running backs in the league PLUS a receiver who was top five before he got hurt and still has several years of high end production left shows how utterly skewed dynasty ppr leagues are. Can't imagine why people would choose that format.
Bad trades aren't a valid indictment of the concept.
Good PPR players would rather have Gurley/Jordy, IMO.
I saw bostonfred's post earlier and was going to respond to it but you already got across the point I was trying to make for the most part.
It's just a bad trade and has nothing to do with PPR, Jordy Nelson catches a lot of passes as well which alone debunks that as the theory for the bad trade.
It's like a few weeks ago someone in this thread posted a massive overpay for Hopkins in a PPR league and part of the package they got for Hopkins was Bell. Bell is likely a 70+ catch back so again it's got nothing to do with PPR.
