****OFFICIAL DYNASTY TRADES**** (26 Viewers)

I will try and tag everyone who responded.

I am surprised at the reactions to be honest, give me the long term asset over the short term asset any day of the week. In a best case scenario Barkley has 3 years of production and a more likely outcome is 1-2. Where as Burrows minimum window is 5 years of elite production and no one would be surprised if he has 10 years of elite production.

There is positional scarcity, I get that. However locking down that QB position for the long term allows you to take flyers on other positions.
Is Burrow really going to give you elite production though? He's way behind KC, BUF, & PHI QBs. And with no rushing would presumably be in that middling QB1 group. I would take my chances finding another Burrow or a Burrow-lite than trying to find another Saquon. The latter will always be expensive.

In 6 pts per TD passing league last year in PPG

1 - Mahomes 34.2
2 - Allen 33.7
3 - Hurts 32.8
4 - Burrow 31.0
5 - Geno Smith 25.4

Burrow was sure closer to #3 then he was to #5

4 pt per TD, slightly skewed from standard in our league:
PHI 414
KC 407
BUF 395
CIN 353
CHI 320
MIN 308
MIA 304
NYG 304
...


I still don't see Burrow as ever being elite. 3rd or 4th place is his ceiling, with his normal finish probably 6th or 7th. Not elite in a start 1 league. But then again, what do I know?
 
16 tm dyn, 1 QB, .5 PPR

Team A: Dalvin

Team B: R. Shaheed, Z. Evans, P. Nacua
I'll take the 3 dice rolls over the depreciating/ed asset.
I'll bet Dalvin still outscores that trio of longshots this year, and career going forward.
He very well could, but if any of the 3 have even a half of a breakout year, they're probably worth more than him at this time next year. That's just the way of the aging RB. It's roster dependent also, obviously. But is Cook any different than the RB version of Hopkins right now? Both teamless cap casualties that showed they still clearly have something left in the tank, albeit probably only 1-2 real useful FF seasons left. Think I'd be lucky to get a 3rd for Hopkins in any of the leagues I own him in right now.
 
Made a move today during our rookie draft. QB room prior to the move was Geno, Purdy, Lance and Bryce(just taken at 1.03).

10 Team 2QB PPR TE Premium

Gave: 1.07, 2024 1st
Got: 1.05(Stroud), 2.05(ended up being Kendre Miller)

Edit: guy at 1.06 was 100% taking Stroud

Too steep for me but I am not high on Stroud. Maybe if “my guy” was there would it look better to me.
 
10 Team 2QB PPR TE Premium

Expensive, but probably worth it considering you got Miller at the 2.05 with a pick you wouldn't have otherwise had. If you don't think you're a high first-round pick next year, then you sorta made out with industry standard or better.
I also added Bijan, Gibbs, Young, Addison and Flowers today. Basically tanked last season to secure Bijan, and sold what good players I had for 23’ and 24’ capital. I still have two 24’ 1sts.

Rbs are nothing of note outside of the three rookies, but I do have Tee, Metcalf, Aiuyk and Bateman already at WR, along with some upside guys like Nico. Te I have Pitts and Chig, and added Musgrave today.

I may not be competing for a championship just yet, but I’ve brought this team a long way.
 
This happened last week before he signed with Tenn:

I gave D.Hopkins

I received a 2024 1st and Jamal Adams (IDP league)

The Adams part was meh as he is my 4th DB, but a 1st that most likely will be a top 8-10 in a 16 team league to me was a no-brainer
 
I’m not involved. Both teams are bottom dwellers.

Garrett Wilson, 2024 2nd, 2025 3rd
For
2024 first (early), 2024 first (late) 2025 first (mid)
 
Start 1 QB 4pt passing TD

Team A:
Trevor Lawrence + 2 2024 1sts (one is projected mid-early, the other is likely mid)

For

Team B:
Patrick Mahomes
Rashee Rice
 
1QB, FFPC

Gave; Lamb
Got; Higgins, Wan’dale Robinson, Kmet, 2024 1st, 3rd

I prefer Lamb to Higgins but not by this much. Had a big offer for Lamb countered a few times, settle here
 
1QB, FFPC

Gave; AJBrown, Dobbins
Got; Two (2) 2024 1st, two (2) 2024 2nds, 2024 3rd

Rebuild and Dobbins certainly wasn’t going to be a part of it. Brown could have but got me in the multiple 1st category. One of the 1st looks to be really early

Give me Lamb on this one...he is only 24 years old, one of the top assets in all of fantasy and in a very stable situation as far as fantasy goes...if you are gonna land him you have to give up a lot and this deal has some smoke and mirrors to it...Robinson, Kmet and the #3 are nibbling around the edges so to me it is Higgins and a #1 and I will absolutely pay that and be very happy to do so to land a young stud of this caliber.

I would have held onto Dobbins and taken the multiple firsts then. Dobbins value seems likely to increase this year.
 
SFLX 2RB, 2WR, TE, 3 FLX.

Gave:
Tua
25 2nd
26 2nd

Got:
Jimmy G
Christian Watson
Cam Akers

Not a contending team, after the trade team looks like:
QB: Herbert, Watson, Jimmy
RB: Gibbs, Akers, Perine, Mostert
WR: Amon-Ra, Watson, Jameson W, Bateman, Myers, Rondale
TE: Kincaid, McBride, Otton
3 x 24 first (likely pick 2, pick 5, pick 11)
+ a bunch of dart throws.

When I first glanced at this I said to myself AJ Brown easy (but fair). But if you're rebuilding I'm all for it, especially if one looks early. No reason to let a stud that isn't helping you get older on your roster. Liquidate.
 
FFPC SuperFlex

I gave Hockenson
I got Gesicki & 2024 1st late

FFPC SuperFlex

You win that
Interesting that you think that is a win. That is like saying you will trade pick 43 straight up for a 2024 late 1st round pick in a startup draft.
For me I think I get nearly identical production out of Gesicki this year as Hockenson. Within a small enough range that a 1st makes it a slam dunk for me. I don't agree with either player's ADP in either redraft or dynasty. I do like Hockenson but also think now *might* be a good sell high window. I think Addison starts dominating non-Jefferson targets by the end of the year. Granted, TEs are measured by a different stick in any format, and especially FFPC, and therefore Hockenson should still be productive. But I would guess both TEs finish around TE9-14.

I agree. And all it takes is a tad of bad luck and that “late” first turns into an early first. Then it’s a slam dunk.

Yeah and in this case I would call them a playoff team but not anything that looks like a runaway. My team actually happens to be much stronger IMO, even though I obviously acknowledge that's a loaded statement. It truly could come down to his Hockenson vs my Gesicki for the ship and the draft pick spot(s). All in all I like the rest of my roster much better but this trade could definitely swing with a lot of weight at the end of the year. A 1st mitigates the downside (quite a bit) to where it is almost but not quite breaking even (if Hockenson produces well but Gesicki doesn't). But there is an upside where I crush this trade and it isn't that far fetched.

I don't think the hate for Gesicki makes any sense and the love for Hockenson is probably justified but this seems like a great arbitrage trade for me.

It seems tough to make a statement like that.
if you say so
Also, the guy willing to add a first round pick to Geisecke to get Hock also says so - and most expert rankings and ADP results....but snark works for you I guess.
I just don't think it's that tough (to make a statement like mine) really. I explained my reasoning. Others liked the deal. It's fine to disagree. Did I run over your cat or something? I don't get your attitude.

if you say so
Well, the history of the two players says so.
In this hobby I like to aim for where I think the landscape is headed, not where it's been. Obviously their record to this point tells one story. I'm arguing that there is a market inaccuracy with both of these players. Yes I could be wrong. I'm fine with that.
