****OFFICIAL DYNASTY TRADES**** (16 Viewers)

You almost nailed it!  I traded up for the 9 pick.  The main reason was because I could use a top TE and the teams picking 10 and 11 need TEs.  Also, I had lots of late picks and limited roster space. So instead of drafting 2 more people I'd have to cut in the end, I jumped up to presumably grab whichever TE I fancy instead of whichever one falls to me.

That said, if Kamara, Juju, Ross, or Foreman go to perfect situations in the NFL draft. I could end up taking one of them at 9 instead of my original plan.  I locked up picks 1, 4, 5, 6, and 9.
Totally valid reasoning. 1.09 is about where I expect the top TE to go, but I could see him going higher based on draft results. 

 
agree.  i don't see much difference between 1.09 and 1.12 this year.  That could change after the NFL draft but at present time would take the extra toppings with the 1.12.
12 could be the second to last guy in the kamara/foreman/ross/ juju/Howard/ Engram/ njoku tier, so you have almost no control over position or situation or preference. If two guys go to bad spots, or if 3 guys go to very good ones, 9 is way better than 12.

7 is better than 10, too, but I'd trade up if you wanted to.

I'd take the picks, but I think Howard is vastly overrated.  I'd probably take Corey Davis 1.01 in this format and grab a RB at 2.01.  

 
Formatting suggestion.

I think we should be saying "Team A GOT" instead of "Team A GAVE."

If we have Team A gave... and Team B gave..., and someone says I prefer Team B, does that mean they prefer what Team B gave or received? I think it is much more clear when we say what each team got.

Anyway, carry on.

12 team PPR devy. Fournette, Cook, McCaffrey, Williams, Davis, Juju, Howard gone. 

1.12 for Lacy (team getting Lacy also also has Rawls)

1.12. That's a pretty steep price to pay at this juncture.

ETA: If that's the player selection order 1.5 must have been through the roof landing Davis.

Its not the order. Think Fournette, Davis, Howard & Juju were taked 2yrs ago. Cook & Williams last year. So it's basically 2.8 instead of 1.12

Gut says Murray but only if I'm contending.

Picks but very close. 

Let's forget page 196 happened
So many English lessons. 

 
I'm assuming it's a rebuild who thinks Prescott will be a top 5 QB for years to come, whereas Rodgers is 10 years older.
Rodgers is 33 and the elite QBs are all playing well into their very late 30's now.  This is like trading away a 24 year old running back because you're "rebuilding".

Yep. I made that mistake with Brees before last season. Lesson learned - ride elite QBs until they retire. 

 
12 tm PPR, made 2 deals - wanted to shake things up even if I may have lost on value a bit:

1) Gave: K.Allen

Got: Gurley

2)Gave: Ingram, B.Powell

Got:G.Tate, 2.12

Its a start 2 RB, 3 WR, 1TE 1Flex 

Roster now:

Brady, Mariota

L.Bell, Gurley, AP, D.Martin

A.Brown, Hilton, G.Tate, Meredith, Fitz, Beasley

M.Bennett, Ertz, J.Thomas

Not sure if I'm better, worse or the same...just different

From trade 1, I have to figure you're better as AP and Doug Martin might not even be playable this year.

If Gurley rebounds, then its a steal of a trade IMO.  Of course, if he has another bad year then I'm likely stuck with him.  Also tired of Ingram and the the role in NO where they seem to like to give others a shot at the goal line...I also think they draft a RB too.

True, but if they consider Dak to be the next Elite QB then it's trading an Elite QB with 6-7 years left for one with 16-17 years left.  Also, I'm not saying Dak is the next Fantasy QB star, just trying to figure out what someone could be thinking.  I wouldn't have done this trade, but I'm trying to put myself in someone else's shoes.

Also, it'd be more like a 26/27 year old RB. One that had been in the league for 1/2 - 2/3 of his career already.  Maybe something like Ingram for Derrick Henry? 27 year old for a 22 year old. One about halfway (or more) done with his career and one just about to rise.

It's like he's tanking this year as part of his build.  

 
I guess Carr is a buy candidate this year.  Just did another trade in Zealots similar to my other one. I'm not a believer in Montgomery at all. And I still have the 1.3 and 1.11.

This is NON-PPR 

Gave

Ty Montgomery, 1.12, 2.07

Got

Derek Carr

That is a massive haul for a QB in a 1 QB league and to me makes him a sell sell sell.  I am a Raiders homer that loves me some Darth Carr, but I'd move him for that in a heartbeat.  Too easy to go get a QB cheap that can score within a couple of PPG of Carr.  Bortles, Rivers, and Mariotta all finished within 1.0 PPG last year.  Palmer 1.05, Dalton 1.5.

What would you get if you bundled all of those together, 1.04?  Hell I could probably turn that into Rodgers if he's on a team looking to build.

"Percentage of career" doesn't matter and is the fallacy that leads to someone making a trade like this.  Ingram is a poor example because he's not an elite player at his position.  This is more like trading David Johnson for Derrick Henry.  In 5 years Rodgers will be 38 and David Johnson will be 30, about to turn 31.  If anything Rodgers probably has more time left than guys like David Johnson or Devonta Freeman and people wouldn't jump ship from those guys because they're too old for a rebuilding team.

Dak looks nice enough, and I have him in my main league, but you have to really really really really really be a believer for this to make sense.  There are a zillion guys that have a nice season as a young QB and a very very small percentage of them ever turn into a player of Rodgers' caliber.

That's not true in a Zealots dynasty IDP league. Rosters are at 54 players and all QBs are rostered including most back ups.

And I'm not sure what your scoring system is but Bortles was 1.8 ppg less, Palmer 2, and Dalton over 3 ppg less. Rivers is just old.

And sure you could swing mythical trades with mythical owners.

I don't really consider Montgomery, 1.12, and 2.07 to be a haul.  More like a collection of lotto tickets.  I expect 2.07 and probably even Montgomery to be pretty low probability lotto tickets and 1.12 isn't exactly approaching even toss-up territory historically either.

It's a nice upside swing but even as someone generally down on QBs I'd probably take Carr and be done with it, even in a normal roster size league (the deep rosters in Andy's league only increase Carr's value).
