Yeah exactly, it's a weird way to frame that. They do it with every trade in the NFL draft and it drives me crazy. Like when a team moves say two future 1sts to go from 1.12 to 1.02 to take a top QB (IDK just spitballing) but it gets reported as they gave up 3 first rounders.
Was going to mention this as well, pet peeve of mine nearly every year around the time of draft and during.
If it was Mahomes for Thomas I'd call it even but with knowing some of the team makeup I think it's great deal for the guy who already had Lamar to add Thomas and not sure what the other team is thinking adding Mahomes to a Murray/Hurts team.
That was my first reaction when I looked at his roster but he *is* stacked still even without Thomas and he absolutely got younger and a decent return. But now he *has* to move Murray or Hurts at close to market and that may not happen in single QB. He has been pinging me like crazy and I'm like "I don't need a QB thanks". Which gets to that discussion on the dyn value thread about people trying to upsell their deals to you. "You need to get younger at QB". No I don't. Also I think it against the rules to manage more than one team in the same league. So I'll do mine he can do his. Hehe. I think I like the Mahomes side still though. He doesn't have to sell one of those 2 QBs today. And he could still flip Mahomes himself later on for someone younger at a skill position and get more out of Thomas in the end than he might if he waits another year. Mahomes will still be as valuable next year at this time but Thomas? Almost certainly not. He did create a lot of extra work for himself, though.
You know what? I only have about 5 clean underwear left before having to wash and now I have to go change again after reading that.
I usually keep typing when I #### my pants as well. Just kidding man that is funny. I have no idea what side did this to you.
Even if 2-3 RBs are gone by 1.06, that's a quality return to get 1-2 RD1 WRs out of those picks
Makes sense and a good cashout price. Surprisingly, McLaurin is 26 in September but has only played 2 seasons.
Not to go off-topic but (actually, yes, to briefly go off-topic), why not a Dionate fan? I ask as a dynasty owner thinking about selling before Ben leaves....PM if you prefer. TIA
Picks, not at all close IMO. I’d take the picks in PPR too although it’s closer.
I like Akers a lot and there should be a good player at 9 (especially if willing to take Lawrence there or if someone outside the top 8 goes to the perfect landing spot) but I'd go with Waller, 2, and 7 here and I think it is quite easy. Not a terrible trade but I wouldn't hesitate.
I don't mind the 1st trade if you really like Mims and couldn't find more on the market. I like Mims a little but might take some time to gel with a new QB (especially a rookie). Not sure I like Scary Terry more than Allen enough to give up a 1st in the 2nd deal but I guess it depends on if you want to win now.
Lol. I think it depends on where guys land but I have a feeling that the top 2 will be much better than the 3rd spot. Plus, what draft capital is taken to get them. I could be on the 1.2 side but don't know yet.
I have the depth and strength that it doesn't come down to winning now vs rebuilding for me. I can compete either way but for the record I think Allen outscores McLaurin this year but it is probably pretty close. I love the Fitz bump of course and yes I did anticipate they would improve at QB. That was baked in here. But the age difference is what made it an autoslam for me. The presumed marginal difference in production isn't really a factor. I moved back to get younger. Oldest 3rd year player ever but still.
I don't really think of it as giving up a 1st. I moved back 4 spots.
Highly doubt it. The team was in bad shape, the only real pieces were Miles Sanders, Deshaun Watson, Diontae Johnson and TJ Hockenson. No 1sts this year and a few picks. He immediately turned it around to possibly compete for 2021 and got loads of picks this year for his rebuild (3 2nd's, 2 3rd's, 3 4th's, his 1st and 2 2nd's next year). It all makes sense looking big picture.
This was regarding the 1.2 for 1.3/3.3 deal.
I was thinking that too. Say what we will about whether we like the strategy or the results, but I would argue he had a plan and ran with it. And it doesn't look inexperienced to me. I wouldn't have gone that kind of route but I get it and I've seen it before.
By the looks of it he gave: Watson, Diontae, Aiyuk, 1.03, 1.12, ‘22 3rd.
Sutton so easily. Value wise this might be good, but studs are even more important in FFPC and his value is low as is right now. It's a good exit price, but I'm still on board with Sutton being one of the very few possible WR1's that isn't ranked highly.
Depends how that 2022#1 forecasts, if it's got at least a shot of being decent I'd take that side, if it looks likely to be some kind of 9-12 lock I'd pass.
Well done.jadensdad said:
Mixon is the only player in there I’m interested in rostering. Well Jacobs also, I suppose, but I think there’s a non-zero chance this is his last season as a full time feature back.barackdhouse said:
