****OFFICIAL DYNASTY TRADES**** (37 Viewers)

1 QB, 12 team, .5 PPR: Not involved.....

Tony Pollard and 2.07
for
1.08, 2.05, and 4.02

Give me Pollard…especially with this year’s rookie crop…he has the potential to be a #1 RB and with low mileage he could do it for another year or two…the second piece of the return has to be better and there is no way that 2.7 should have been included…bad use of a very good asset.
 
FFPC , 1QB

Gave: 1.04
Got: 2024 1st and 2024 2nd (both look early-mid)

I’m a firm believer that if you don’t love the best available player you make this type of love. Move the 2nd in season to help contend and hope the 1st is more early than mid. Continue this trend until it becomes 1.01 or 1.02 and getting the stud while accumulating 2nd and using them productively along the way
 
Why does a team need to cash out from Pollard when he finally gets a full opportunity?
That cash out is more like dumping.

I get the thinking. Pollard's about 26 now, isn't he? If the guy that rosters him is in a total rebuild, and we assume two years for the rebuild, by the time Pollard is 28 and useful he fetches nothing on the market and isn't useful as a player. This way you've got a shot at a twenty-two year old receiver that might have six years left.

That's just my thought about why you'd do that, though. I wouldn't have included the 2.07, but to each his own.

He is 26 already, never been one that can take a full work load as the team doesn't even want him to have 20+ carries a game, and the dude is in a multi-year rebuild. Pollard will be 28-29 before this guy can even think about competing so no reason to hold a RB with value. I would cash out in that situation too. Other situations then no.

Maybe I'm off on Pollard, but 1.06/1.07 in this class seems about right for him to me. I don't mind the return in a rebuild.

Good move, I like it for you if it truly looks early-mid. Addison is a weak 1.04 and it just gets weaker with different suggestions for the pick.

That said, every draft is different so I wouldn’t just rollover 1.04s for future 1s and 2s on the regular. Doesn’t sound like that’s what you’re suggesting though as you did qualify your plan with “if you don’t love the best available”.

Agree with a lot of what you are saying but would add I don't care about carries, I care about touches and Pollards got tremendous growth potential in the passing game with Elliot out. He's been vastly under utilized in that area, very easy to see an Ekeler type late career surge once the vet is finally gone(Gordon/Elliot).

But if he's a few years away from contending think it's a good idea to move him but still think the return is to light. For instance last week someone offered me a 2024 #1 and told me they'd kick in a little extra for Pollard and that pick could be anywhere but for sure the team would not project as one of the favorites even after obtaining Pollard. That's more the kind of trade I think the guy should have made instead of pick 8 in a soft draft.
 
16 team SF PPR IDP TE-P, performance IDP scoring

I gave: Darnell Mooney + 2024 7th (late)
I received: 4.03, 5.15

4.03 was OTC, and I used it on Felix Anudike-Uzomah

I had Felix as a top 8 IDP rookie, and needed a bookend to Paye (my depth is ok, but not exciting)

And @rockaction is the only one here who will care, probably. 🥹

I was ok with 1.08 and 2.05 for him. Seemed fair. Just didn't think he should be giving 2.07 back as well. I'm not huge on Pollard either but this year's draft doesn't leave as much talent in as great of landing spots as I would like to trade him for 1.08 and a 2 pick upgrade in the 2nd personally.

Totally agreed here. I am win-now and if I needed a RB, I'd make a run at Pollard. I just didn't like the return. Felt light by at least the fact he gave 2.07 back. I wasn't dogging Pollard. More providing reasons why he wasn't right for a true start from scratch rebuild project.

I have a little seller’s remorse as I didn’t hold him thru the draft. Still happy with the future 1st I got but likely could get more now. Everyone assumed Dallas would add someone with Pollard 26, one year tag, never carried the load, and coming off injury, but that didn’t happen. Seems risky for their playoff hopes to roll with just him and/or any vet leftovers they may pick up now.

As for increased touches, Zeke only vacated 23 targets for 17 receptions from last year, don’t see Pollard greatly jumping up in targets, especially with Cooks there now too.
 
12 team ppr QB/2RB/3WR/TE/FL

Team A gave up

Team B gave up
As the Elijah Moore owner in a 16 team dynasty with a need for a backup QB and having WR depth, I would like to get this kind of return for Moore.
Fair take.

I’m not entirely convinced of Garoppolo’s longevity in that offense, but I guess that’s cheap enough to find out.

You could have waited yes but had they spend a day 2 pick on a RB, you may not have got that 1st. Hard to know so I don't blame you especially if that pick finishes in the top half of the 1st.

If Pollard is the third down back I anticipate the usage being an almost 180 difference then how they utilized Zeke. At one time Zeke was dangerous in the passing game but this last version of him was not, he just kept the third down gig because his best trait at this point is arguably his pass protection. Whereas with Pollard he's a skilled and dangerous receiving option, but he's been lacking in pass protection. Perhaps that keeps him from seizing the third down role, but if he does get it I expect him to be used vastly different.
 
FFPC 1 QB

Gave: Dak Prescott, 1.08
Got: Lamar Jackson, 2.02

This is very much a win-now team. The other guy included Lamar in 24 different trade offers over the past 6 weeks. The final offer he made was actually my counteroffer he rejected earlier.
 
12 team FFPC SF league
Edit - not involved
Team A trades 1.03

For

Team B 2024 1st, hard to tell where this pick will be in FFPC format. Middle of the pack team.

I only mention this as I had A St-Brown straight up for the 1.03 sitting in his inbox since this morning. I have the 1.02 and fairly set at WR.

I wouldn’t take a 2024 1st for ARSB, so it really got me thinking.

What do guys think?

Agreed. However, Amon-Ra St Brown or 2024 1st?
