We all have our preferences. Like @barackdhouse, I’m not sold on Harris. I don’t think Mitch will be very successful there and Harris seems like a bit of a compiler to me.
I don't know. Do I trust Jeudy after two sort of abysmal fantasy seasons, even with Wilson throwing him the ball? I dunno. Good luck.
Yeah, I definitely understand that. As my WR 3 or 4 I prefer the bigger upside. I think that is Jeudy.
Another good move, IMO. Without too much detail, I was offered the 4.01 for RoJo yesterday in an IDP league and declined. We do not have roster spot crunches on the reg like you guys do, though.
Brown? I don't know. Enough of a toss-up that three trade calcs all have it differently. One Brown, one picks, one even.
I agree with you and I know it was just a high ankle sprain but it was a really bad one and it's no coincidence to me Juedy's best game all year was not even 3 quarters of week one before he went down.
We've had discussion on this board about FFPC leagues about how much sense it makes to just cut a player you don't have room to keep before taking such a discounted deal. This is a good example were I'd have just cut ROJO if I was out of roster room before taking a 4-5th. Maybe that guy who trade him was not even doing it for roster room, just using this as an example.
I put Najee OTB late last night and woke up to 3 offers. One was junk one was super interesting but not something I wanted to do. Before I countered that one I countered an offer of 1.03 for Najee with the deal that is posted above. Dude accepted within a couple minutes before I could counter the other one but I doubt it would have worked out like this one did.
I agree completely. If I can't find room and if I like him I would rather boomerang him. And or make someone pay more. No chance he would last to 5.04.
I’m on the AJB side. I don’t think there’s a receiver in 2022 draft that comes close to his ability.
doesn’t change a thing for me other than who I’d target. Guys like Tank Bigsby, Jordan Addison, Michael Mayer, Sean Tucker, & a few others should round out that 8-12 range assuming good health/consistency - I’d be thrilled with any of them there as value for what you traded.
Yep, the next new toy is always more desirable. This time last year the same feelings were for Najee Harris, who performed very well (1500 total yards and 8 TDs) considering they had an awful OL and a done Big Ben.
I mean, the whole package he received is why I like it, not just the ‘23 pick.
That wasn't really a motivating factor for me though. This was more about needing to gain more pieces and capital. I don't consider Najee to Fournette much of a downgrade if at all in terms of production. I am likely not competing this year but this deal gives me more of a chance IMO. The value is also handily on my side here. It isn't my hate for Najee that drove this, rather what I saw as an opportunity to profit and get better. I have other strong teams with Najee where I likely wouldn't consider moving him.
Seems even. In general, in a 3:1 trade, gimme the 1 most of the time.
I think value-wise you win this deal regardless of personal feelings about any specific player.
I consider Fournette a huge downgrade in dynasty. If redraft then I agree. I remember not too long ago you couldn’t trade Fournette for a pack of Skittles.
Eh. Maybe just lacking effectiveness. He hasn’t looked like himself even before the knee sprain. I was high on pollard before last year & EE being a year older doesn’t change that.
I'd agree as I think Fournette is year to year and if this was not SF I would have needed the 2023 to project mid to high. I don't play SF but understand enough to know it increases the value of that late 2023#1 and possibly/likely the 1.3. Bateman is of little consequence to me so from someone is extremely high on Najee I'd have found this deal way to good to resist.
I agree with the bolded. I am not constantly trading last years stud though. But I get your meaning.
I’m not an ETN truther for several reasons but I would still take the Jefferson side. If the 1.06 was a top 2 or 3 2023 pick I would consider the other side.
I think I'm with you and, in a vacuum, prefer the Najee side. Young, workhorse RBs are a rarity. I'll keep the bird in hand.
Well, you're looking at one of Wilson, London, Burks, Williams, or Walker. Hall will go 1.01. I still like Davis' upside and Albert O has some as well, but he's mostly meh in the deal. I still lean to the DK side myself and hope he either gets a good QB or is dealt to a team with one, but it is a fair trade.
Very close.... Curious if you would have pulled the trigger if DK had a better QB situation?
Fair. I would easily trade that to get Metcalf, unless I really needed a RB and then I would consider staying put to get Walker, even if it meant bumping up one or two spots. But I also would not move Metcalf for that even if I did need a RB and Walker was OTC. Obviously I am a big Davis fan and I have been buying Albert O for cheap everywhere. I don't fault anyone for either side.
Heh, you got to it first but I was typing it out, too. That's the rub and the reason for this to exist, one thinks.
Not to beat this horse back to life but the bolded is only true in terms of LF vs Najee. The overall deal greatly favors me from a dynasty perspective. And IMO a redraft one as well. And I think people are still giving LF away for way too cheap out there. I think they are terrified of holding an aging back but are willing to sell too low.
I spoke to the deal from an overall dynasty perspective and gave my reasons why I would go the Najee side.
Ok thanks, fair enough I wasn't sure if you meant purely Najee vs LF or whether you were including the rest.
No. I'll just cut and paste my post here and you will see I was speaking from the point of view of the entire deal.
Metcalf side fairly easily for me. And I like Davis a lot (obv)
I prefer Chase over Jefferson but it is close. I also like Burrow over Cousins obviously. Boyd and Hurst are no threat to Chase and Higgins is good for him. Chase was a big play monster at LSU and it has continued in the NFL and will continue to do so.
