I would take a swing at Sutton for this price. I know cutdowns are big in that league so it would depend on what the end of my bench looked like though.

If you're not in the need for a QB I would have stuck with the 2.07, 2.09, etc., because I don't see a lot of difference between the 2.02 and the 2.07 and 2.09. If you do need a QB, in a start 1QB league, one or more of the top QBs will be there at 2.02, maybe even Caleb Williams, but probably not. However, with only 21 roster spots, I can see the trade for the 2.02 regardless if you are going to have a roster number crunch.

My thoughts exactly. This was probably one of those pre cutdown moves where "something is better than nothing", but I needed some extra flex help and this fits the bill nicely.

Yeah, I have 3 or 4 end of roster cuts I identified right now with now 1.04, 1.09, and 2.02. It makes the end of bench cuts easier now.

I like this. I'm starting to see another big tier drop around #15-16 as I play with my rankings so getting ahead of that could be huge.
I'd also add, that this 12-16 range I'm playing with now are very comparable to other years' 8-12 range players.

Nice picks and even more of a reason to move those other 2's & 3's. Nicely played.

Do you have a target in mind?

Not necessarily. I find it valuable to make moves like this before the draft in short bench leagues before tiers are set.
This is essentially a way to make cuts for me. I give up some value, but I couldn’t keep all the players I would select if I stayed put.

Assuming Levis isn't an outright bust, this looks like a massive win for you.
Hot Sauce Guy

In that context it’s a sharp move for sure.
What I’m always puzzled by in these short bench scenarios is why the trade partners want to be saddled with 4 picks. Don’t they also have a short bench?

I would consider my roster a top 3 roster with good depth. The roster trading for all those picks is one of the weaker teams and has more end of bench cuts. Even if he just wants 2.07 and 2.09 for 2.02 I think for him 2 players would be better than the 1.
Saying that, I rarely am trading down for multiple picks unless I have identified open space on my roster.

I’d prefer Love side but barely. So yeah, good trade.

Footballguy
this is one of the very few years where I’d trade a future first for a top 2nd. (Presuming the first looks to be late)

Rome Odunze better hit because you gave up a freaking unicorn stud to get that 1.3 pick. Not saying its bad value, but I could see a Laporta owners wanting even more in leagues where you are required to start a TE each week.

I'd send Laporta for the 1.03 for sure.
Non tight end premium it's not even a consideration for me tbh.

LaPorta and pick 1.03 seem like the perfect match if a TE is required but not premium TE scoring. For me I'd rather take the chance on MHjr or Malik. Odunze is a close call and I could go either way. No other WR I'd consider right now. Bowers vs LaPorta and I'll take LaPorta easy. 1QB league and again it's LaPorta over Caleb.

Overpay
-OZ-
Footballguy
Does it really cost more to go from 8 to 5 than 5 to 4? In most formats I see 5 and 8 as very close.
If it was TE Premium it would feel a little stout to me but not horrible.
In a non-TE Premium I'm going to call it horrible.
kutta
Footballguy
Not TE premium
kutta
Footballguy
I agree. But somehow he always is able to trade into a premium pick even with a really good team. He did something similar to get 1.02 and Gibbs last year.
JohnnyU
Footballguy
Sounds like a smart fantasy player, but he overpaid at the end of the day.

I love moving into the top, top tier each year. An overpay today is an underpay tomorrow and this feels like on of those moves.

Seems reasonable to me in 1QB. Likely targeting a top 3 WR or Bowers.
osubuckeyeman
Footballguy
The "Ole" Jerry Jones theory. The best deals he ever made were when he overpaid. LOL. In one QB, there is a thought process that the 1.4 is the drop-off in the first round, so I guess he feels and thinks this is a precious slot and he paid multiple less valuable picks to acquire it.
Zow
Footballguy
Right. I see this as completely fair, smart transactions by all involved.
Except I don't think he got in the top tier.
Give me James Cook here. But I also like Goff over Murray. Samuel = Edwards
-OZ-
Footballguy
This is the key isn’t it? If you think Bowers is the next ELITE TE, then even if TE isn’t premium he’s probably still in the top tier IMO. Opinions will differ of course.
I presume the top TEs score about the same as a top WR2 in most leagues. Maybe a lower 2 in non premium, higher if there’s more of a premium (my leagues are like 1 ppr for TE, .8 ppr for WR). We all might believe that the big 3 WR all become WR1 caliber and they clearly could, but they could top off as 2s too (or bust of course).
I just don’t think there’s that big a drop from 3 to 4, with a much bigger drop 4 to 5. Maybe 4 its own tier. At least unless Thomas lands in KC or cincy and Tee got dealt.

I'll take the Kyler side. In my mind, Kyler>Goff and the other 3 players are roster cloggers.

VERY close to a trade I did in one of my 12 team SF Best Ball PPR Dynasty Leagues. Gave up my 1.9 and 2.2 picks for 1.5. I now have the 1.2 and 1.5. GIDDY UP

Even though I do like Murray give me the Goff, Cook, and Samuel side EASILY.
King of the Jungle
Footballguy
I thought Cook played really well last season, certainly better than a roster clogger. I think with Diggs aging and the Bills continued desire to keep Allen healthy, his arrow is still pointing up.
ffmail4me
Footballguy
Agreed and I think Samuel is going to be one of the best late round values this year. He will do very well in the Bills offense IMO.

Footballguy
It’s interesting to see waddle worth a fair bit less than London. Might be right.
In SF, I’ll take the 5.
Last one seems really close
Agree but would be hard for me to give up Chase considering his situation with Burrow as his QB and Higgins probably gone after this year.

Nothing off about it, I'd rather have Odunze.
