Why in the world would you do this? That's horrifyingly bad. Awful. Dreadful. Unless it's a keep-1 league where you have no shot, where it's been pre-determined that the league's folding in a few years.

Otherwise, makes no sense.

Just did an interesting one. 14 team ppr. Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR/TE, 2 FLEX. 5./1/1.5 PPR for RB/WR/TE. A good TE scores like a good WR in this league.

Gave: TE Charles Clay, WR Rueben Randle

Got: TE Tyler Eifert

Actually very impressed with Clay this year and think Randle can be solid, but also a big Eifert fan. Now have him in all of my TE-premium leagues.
Big fan of this one. After Graham, Gronk, Julius, and Cameron there's no TE I'd rather have going forward than Eifert. He's really the only one with the talent and ceiling to catch those guys some day.
eifert is overrated but Id still do the trade.

Other than the guys I named and win-now options like VD and Witten, who would you prefer to Eifert?

I like Eifert but players I'm looking at in a similar tier to him are Reed and Green.

I'm a huge Cam fan, but give me the Luck/Calvin side.
Agreed...whether you're a contender *or* a pretender.
no reason to give up luck or calvin if rebuilding. Build around them. They will last longer. Rookies.

I like Reed, but not quite as much as Eifert. I'll need to see something from Green before I value him that highly. Especially with Gates experiencing a bit of a career resurgence.

 
Standard Scoring League (Non-PPR)

Gave: Randall Cobb and Danarius Moore

Received: Julio Jones and Brian Quick

Another deal, same league:

Gave: Eddie Lacy, Coby Fleener, Brian Quick, two 2014 2nds (both middle round probably)

Received: David Wilson, Tavon Austin, Tyler Eifert, 2014 3rd (probably mid)

I'm obviously rebuilding...

Why? That's bad enough to make the worst ever lists.
i am always a fan of consolidating multiple players into a stud. To be honest I have Brandon Marshall, Antonio Brown, and Roddy White and I only have to start three. I didn't need Harvin and AJ is fantastic but he isn't Megatron. Trent pisses me off every week and I had him in two leagues. Killing me with his Leroy Hoard impersonation.

You already had at least two studs there.

Yeah they key is here is consolidating multiple B-level players into a stud. Not trading 3 studs for 1 stud.

 
12 tm PPR. Start 2 RB, 2 WR, and 2 flex.

I gave: Arian Foster, Reggie Wayne, Steven Jackson

I got: Gio Bernard, Brandon LaFell, a 2nd

I'm rebuilding. Felt that it was a lot to give up, but in a year or two when I'm competitive, feel like it will be worth it.

That's fine. I respect your right to make that trade, it's your roster. But two things:

1. I think if the dynasty community as a whole could somehow be polled, you'd be in the vast, vast, vast minority on this.

2. I'd be shocked if that trade didn't cause an eruption of outrage in your league.

 
We'll see. I happy to have the best receiver perhaps in the history of football who just turned 28.
Green was the #3 WR last season. Calvin isn't always going to have historical 2,000 yard seasons.

Don't get me wrong, I've got Calvin as my #1 WR for the foreseeable future. You just gave up a ton for a minimal upgrade.

I highly doubt you make this trade if Green wasn't having a slow start to the season. Which makes it incredibly short-sighted.

It's a shame you had to give Cameron, but other than that I like it for you. You won everywhere else, and Eifert isn't a big step down when you already have Graham, Julius, and only one flex spot.

I can't imagine you lose much.

 
12 team PPR.

Gave: Fitzgerald and 2014 1st (best team in the league)

Got: Marshall

Really tough trade since I have them close long term but Marshall's schedule is far better than Fitzgerald's and he has an NFL caliber QB throwing him the ball. Fitzgerald was likely going to be on my bench most weeks.

I like it. You traded hopes and dreams of former glory for a machine. Enjoy him in your lineup.

 
12 Team Non PPR.

I sent Gronk/Harvin/Andre Johnson and I got Jimmy Graham/2014 2nd round rookie pick
Yikes, not a fan.

Only way this works out for you is if Gronk's injury ends up being career threatening, and even in that case it's not a huge win. If Gronk plays again though (which I assume he will), then I'd much rather have that side.

Valid point and I agree it's a risky trade. However I'm banking on Gronk not returning to his pre multiple injury form (of course I don't wish him ill will by any means). I like Harvin, but he too has a litany of injuries and has missed a ton of time. Andre is great, but also on the downside of his career.

I'm 2x defending champ and TE was my weakest position with Gronk's injury and Hernazdez in prison. I wanted to make a play for the best TE in game and give me a better chance at a 3-peat, so I was okay moving these pieces.

I hate it. Graham is unbelievable but he can't sustain this level. Gronk was better then Graham pre injury. Even if Gronk is only 80 percent of what he was, you shouldn't have to pay Harvin and Johnson to make up the difference.

 
12 team, 0.5 PPR

team A gives: N Washington, G Tate

Team B gives: Michael Floyd
Ok, if I could get Floyd for that price, of course I'm buying. Whatever hype Golden tate had has been snuffed out, Harvin hasn't even been playing and he's clearly in a toss-up with Baldwin and Rice and Kearse. The only hope for Tate was to fill the Harvin roll and fill it well. Again, Michael Floyd for a bag of chips here.

This exact trade happened in my league earlier, I thought then, and still think now, that the guy who got Marshall got the better end. Good trade for you.

+1

 
10 team ppr start 1 qb/ 2 rb/ 3wr/ 1 te/ 1 flex(any)/idp

Team A traded:

Vernon Davis (3 years)

Team B traded:

Hopkins (6 years)

Team A also had Julius Thomas/Jordan Reed at TE

Team B had Gronk/Daniels, and still has Cruz/Wallace/Harvin/Williams/Brown at wr.

Team C traded:

RG3 (11 years)

Team D traded:

Peyton Manning (2 years)

Team C now starts Arod/Manning at qb, is 5 - 0 and the clear favorite already.

Team D is 1 - 4, has 3 2014 1sts, and RG3, Cutler, Locker at QB going forward. To pair with McCoy, Torrey Smith, Cobb, Hilton, Crabtree for a nice young roster.

That's quite a gamble. He's recovered from the back procedure before, and the arm is simply a matter of the bone healing. I don't see him being hampered long-term.

 
12 team PPR

Gave:

Trent Richardson

Andre Roberts

Got:

Darren Sproles

Antonio Brown

Michael Crabtree

I think there's some danger that it comes back to haunt you. Really depends on how Crab bounces back and how Richardson pans out over the next couple years.

I think a healthy Crabtree is a clear top 10-12 dynasty WR, so he's not the worst guy to target at the moment.
