hey all, first time poster, semi longtime dynasty player.... big boy trade, curious of the community's thoughts...
12tmSF, .5 PPR, start 9(noK/DST)
I gave kyler, olave, and garret wilson to receive
Josh Allen and Saquon
Surface context: I have chase, tyreek, hollywood. only aaron jones of significance but a lot of high end no 2 rbs. watson as my other qb.
Deeper context: I have always succeeded subscribing to the jordan mcnamara idea of get the elite qbs, walk into the playoffs and let the chips fall as they may. furthermore i typically paint by numbers at RB. i don't typically trade for them unless its late season for a playoff run, but the only piece that made sense on the other squad to even out the deal, considering this deal wasn't happening without both receivers involved, was saquon. My preference was to give kyler and garret straight for allen, but depth was the sticking point for my trade partner.
Even deeper context: I am not as high on garret as it seems the market is. i have more faith in the consistent staying power of olave than wilson, so it was harder to part with olave. With kyler, something just seems awry, if he totally returns to form with the rushing and is a consistent fantasy producer via his legs for years to come than i will get burned right there on this trade. But i have serious doubts about his ability to improve as a nuanced passer, coupled with the coaching/system change, its a business that i want to get out of if that means pivoting to a top 3 qb. wouldnt do this trade if it was full PPR. wouldnt do this trade in different team builds. but here we are
Anyways, just curious of what the community thinks about this one
