I own him in 2/3 of my dyno leagues, he's untouchable unless it's for King Midas' powers.Anybody see any Mike Evans trades go down in their leagues recently?

And as I post you put this up. This is Amari Cooper for free... unless it's start 5+ WR's12 Team PPR
Team A got Allen Robinson, Sammy Watkins, Breshad Perriman, Donte Moncrief and 2018 1st
Team B got Mike Evans, Amari Cooper, Kenny Stills and Ameer Abdullah
You clearly like to harbor past opinions that you don't like. Maybe you will feel better if you put more self-gloating accolades in your sig.Michael Thomas was pick 10 what a bust!!!!!!!!!!!
How was it a bush move to call out what was happening at the time it was happening ? People are so quick to call out trades are awful when half the time they go the other way. People never remember this ever either. I do though. I traded the #1 overall pick for Cruz in this same league in 2013 and I was told how awful that was to get Cruz for "just one pick"....one pick aka #1 overall isn't just one pick. Also one guy said he was going to quit the league if I ever made another trade like that......yep Cruz was fantastic since that deal........not. Also the guy who traded me Cruz turned around and traded that #1 pick for Antonio Brown, 1.07, future 2015 1st and 3rd. That future 2015 1st ended up pick 2 ala Gurley. I am guessing I would have rather had Brown, Gurley and whoever else over Cruz.
Ajayi at least turned it around after looking like he was going to be nothing when the team sat him at home week 1. Parker on the other hand looks like who knows. Michael Thomas meanwhile the guy I would have taken at pick 10 of course is now a late 1st round startup pick. Doctson went 6th I would have grabbed him there as well unsure of his future but I would have rather had Thomas and Doctson over Ajayi and Parker.
Certainly not the horrible trade most of you made it out to be at the time (6/10 for Parker, Ajayi) and my team sucked last year missed the playoffs anyway and the other guy on this board who makes tons of trades in this league in the same league barely lost the championship for the 2nd year (the guy who is always critical of all my trades in this league even though hardly any of them have worked out since 2013 like when I traded for Trent Richardson and got him "cheap" lol.
Anyway had to get that off my chest. Moving on.
Gio for meGive me the pieces. I wouldn't deal for gio before the nfl draft - Cincinnati is expected to take a running back in the first couple rounds and he'll probably become cheaper whether he's less valuable or not. But this feels like close to full price even if Cincinnati stands pat with Hill and Bernard.
One Evans trade and a few others by me (in different leagues) in the past couple of months. 1pprAnybody see any Mike Evans trades go down in their leagues recently?
Wow you're really high on Evans.And as I post you put this up. This is Amari Cooper for free... unless it's start 5+ WR's
I see this as Watkins/Montcrief/2018 1 for Evans.12 Team PPR

Now it's happening in the Old 2016 Rookie Draft Thread as well.You clearly like to harbor past opinions that you don't like. Maybe you will feel better if you put more self-gloating accolades in your sig.

I'm not a fan of Arob or Watkins and Perriman and Monc are depth pieces at best and WR3 bye week fillers. Evans and Amari are both 23 and 22 respectively, no major injuries to recurring problems at all, and multiple 1000 yd seasons. Watkins has foot questions, Arob had 1 great year and 1 kinda average year (2016). Maybe it's not exactly "Amari for free" like I mentioned before but that's the side to take in a landslide. If I got offered Watkins/Monc/2018 1st for Evans, discussions are barely starting.Wow you're really high on Evans.
I see this as Watkins/Montcrief/2018 1 for Evans.
ARob/Perriman for Cooper/AA.
Seems pretty fair to me.
Ha I'll take a swing with Hill for this price.PPR Dynasty League
Team A gave 2.05 rookie pick
Team B gave Jeremy Hill and the 2.11 rookie pick
Yes I know, you already said he's untouchable to you so I would expect you to have this opinion in particular if you don't like Watkins and ARob to begin with.I'm not a fan of Arob or Watkins and Perriman and Monc are depth pieces at best and WR3 bye week fillers.

Isn't DT a rapid onset of confusion usually caused by withdrawal from alcohol?DT side
I'm not as high as most on evans, Allen or Benjamin so I'll take the consensus best player in Evans and look to flip.One Evans trade and a few others by me (in different leagues) in the past couple of months. 1ppr
Keenan, KBenj, TBoyd for M.Evans, Goff
2.02 for CJ Anderson (start 1 rb)
2.12 for Delanie Walker (devy league, so pick is really mid 3rd)
Kbenj for CJAnderson + 2.12 (start 2 rb)
Eddie Lacy + 4.6 for 2.7 (start 2 rb)
I bolded the key words here. If it's not likely then I fail to see how it's close. This is 2 sure fire top10 dynasty WR's for a questionable top10 WR in Arob, and a "Oh if he hits his ceiling he MIGHT get to top10". At what point do you write the book on a guy? I go by 3 seasons as a good base for "he is what he is" and Watkins is injury prone in an average offense. In 2015 he was WR17 in my ppr league, while missing 3 games, and even if he has 3 more games does he really crack the top10 (30 point difference btw)? That is his upside. A not likely to hit his full potential WR and a good WR2 on a fantasy team. He's Roddy White at best, some good years and some elite years, not Julio Jones a yearly top of the crop WR.Yes I know, you already said he's untouchable to you so I would expect you to have this opinion in particular if you don't like Watkins and ARob to begin with.
But I think many see Watkins (WR1 upside just like Evans) Moncrief (WR2 upside), 2018 1 as a pretty solid trade for Evans. They are pieces that have significant value and if they reach their full potential (not likely, I know) they would blow Evans' value out of the water. Probably not an overpay for Evans as many would want, however.
Rudolph played 16 games each of the last two years. More importantly, he's not coming off his second major back surgery. I also didn't say I was hoping to get someone as good as Gronkowski with the picks, my exact words were "take a shot at his successor", a TE I can trust to start. I suppose one could extrapolate "successor" to mean "next elite TE" but that isn't really the expectation, although Engram has that potential in my eyes. So maybe I would restate it with "and take a shot at finding a long-term starter at TE".You do realize Rudolph is usually injured as well? So then you are hoping to get someone as good as Gronk, who has been the one of the top 3 fantasy tight ends of all time over his career, at 1.08 or 1.15?
I do like this thought process, but at what point does that potential advantage from Gronkowski get outweighed by the return?I like competitive advantages, and am willing to accept the risk in Gronk to have that advantage when he is in the lineup. When he isn't in the lineup, I can start my TE2.
In the Johnson deal you may be giving up two 1sts, but they are both probably late. So, that plus 2 mid 3rds and Williams is not a lot to give up for a bellcow like DJ.Landed a couple of stud RBs in a couple leagues the past few weeks.

-- 2 firsts is a lot to give up but with the way my team's constructed the '18 should also be late. The 3rds were tough to part with too in this draft but still have 2 2nds and 2 4ths. And a bonafide stud RB to pair with the likes of Brees, McCoy, Thomas, Hilton and a top-line set of IDPs

All of them reaching their full potential isn't likely, pretty sure you know this is what I was saying. They don't all have to hit their full potential for it to be slanted towards that side.I bolded the key words here. If it's not likely then I fail to see how it's close.

Highway robbery for Johnson. 2 late rookie firsts (1.15 isn't even a first in 12 man leagues) is not a lot to give up for the #1 dynasty asset and 3rd round rookie picks are trivial in this equation. 1.15 in startup is probably going to go in the Marvin Jones area of the draft, so this is like trading two Marvin Jones' for DJ. Ludicrous.Landed a couple of stud RBs in a couple leagues the past few weeks.

I like both trades in your favor.
Has KB fallen this much? I think it's a fine deal if you need a RB, but as I have Hyde I'd trade him rather quickly for KB and a bump up in the draft. (FWIW, I have 4 RBs I like to start, not counting Jamal Charles, and we can only start 1-2 so I'm actually looking to trade one)Love the first one for you, like the second for you.
when teams are willing to make those deals, I'm more curious about how they got DJ/Bell in the first place and how they kept them this long. Seems they'd have had a better offer by now and have no idea what they're doing. If It's a salary cap league it might make more sense.Highway robbery for Johnson. 2 late rookie firsts (1.15 isn't even a first in 12 man leagues) is not a lot to give up for the #1 dynasty asset and 3rd round rookie picks are trivial in this equation. 1.15 in startup is probably going to go in the Marvin Jones area of the draft, so this is like trading two Marvin Jones' for DJ. Ludicrous.
Bell deal is nearly as bad, but at least the other owner has injury, suspension risk, and potentially moving on from PIT/losing Big Ben as an excuse for giving away a top 10 asset.
And you got late picks thrown in on your side just because. Who are these people and why aren't they in my leagues?
KB has fallen that much. I bet he bounces back some this year, but Cam isn't a very reliable passer and KB's value is pretty low in my league at least.Has KB fallen this much?

Whether he has fallen or not I can't say but I easily prefer Hyde over him and if I'm hurting at RB, throwing in a future 2nd for future 3rd is a great deal.Has KB fallen this much?

I agree. No mention of salary cap by OP, but he did mention contract years. 3 years for DJ is plenty for him to hold value, and Bell has a 1 year deal with a friendly Franchise Tag rule so no challenge keeping him there for (I assume) any length contract he wants to assign.when teams are willing to make those deals, I'm more curious about how they got DJ/Bell in the first place and how they kept them this long. Seems they'd have had a better offer by now and have no idea what they're doing. If It's a salary cap league it might make more sense.
I was pretty desperate for a RB - we have to start at least 2 and my RBs were Matt Jones, C.Sims, Langford and Asiata, lol (again, dispersal last year with NO RBs to speak of)...and I didn't want to rely on 2 rookie RBs with the 1st 2 picks...and given that we can start 3 WRs max, I feel as if I have upgraded my lineup in a major way with both deals.-OZ- said:Has KB fallen this much?

Yeah not a salary cap, just contract years. I'm not sure if I mentioned it in my OP, but this was in separate leagues (obviously) but with the same guy. This guy just loves to tinker and LOVES draft picks. He basically just strips down his team minus a few young assets every year and drafts 30 rookies. Why he wouldn't want to just keep an asset like DJ to build around is beyond me, though. He really didn't even have Johnson on the block but I had some spare parts, some good picks and had a history of big deals with the guy so I approached him about a potential blockbuster. He got DJ in a trade last year right before the season started. Gave up Paxton Lynch, Ajayi and a few other decent parts.Hankmoody said:I agree.

Personally I'm selling Bell, but only at full price. I saw a deal for him go for 1.02, 1.08, and 1.14, seller took over an orphan and is in rebuild mode. That's an entire 1.02 more than Nirad paid and that's what I would need to move him. As a competitor I'd need someone like Hopkins or AJG to anchor the trade with maybe some pieces thrown in.
