14 teams. Devy league (devaluing the picks a bit).

Gave:

Trent Richardson

Got:

Michael Floyd

E.J. Manuel

2014 1st (mid-late)

2014 2nd (mid-late)

Finally bailed. I think I got good value, considering.
Who did you make that trade with, Richardson himself??? His mom???That is huge for you.
That seems to be the general consensus in my league. It's funny, since I was poised to get more before last night's game. I guess I must have found the only other remaining hardcore Trent supporter haha.
Even the biggest Trent lovers should realize they should be getting him for quite a bit less than that.

And I have no idea why you thought you would get more than that before last nights game.
Because I was about to, before last night's game. The guy was mulling over, and leaning towards accepting, Christine Michael, Michael Floyd, and the 1st. And I consider Michael an upgrade over Manuel + 2nd.

I don't know if last night was the first time he's actually seen the disaster live, or what, but seeing the game he rejected the deal and sent me this counter, and I decided not to stretch my luck.
yikes, you failied not taking the other deal before this past game, lol.

I mean, I would take Floyd over him. FLOYD. Floyd alone.

Richardson has proven he is not a legit NFL back. In fact he has proven it 10x more than anyone else would who wasn't a top 5 pick.
Too early to call it proven. Things look grim, but the book's not closed yet. If nothing else, there are few gambles in the league today that have the kind of upside Trent Richardson offers.

 
Gave: Andre Brown

Got: 2015 1st

This was tough to pull the trigger on as I'm a contender this year (Brown battling/leading Fitzgerald and Stewart for my flex spot) and the team I was trading with is currently tied with me for the division lead. That said, I feel like his team is about to fall off a cliff (he'll lose two of Gordon/Bush/Amendola to contracts this offseason and he was relying on DeAngelo as a starting HB all year until now) and I'm trying to acquire 2015 picks to give me ammo to move up for Gurley when the time comes.
I can understand why it would be hard to pull the trigger, but I think that's the sort of trade that you appreciate more and more as you gain more distance from it. That'll suck a tiny bit for 2-3 weeks, then rule hard for 2+ years.

 
I need a sanity check here if yall dont mind- 12 team ppr, I am offering Gore, Fitz, and a 1st for Keenan Allen (I still have peterson bush and stacy). Too much? not enough? Im really having trouble wrapping my head around it. Thanks.

Way too much, even for a rebuilding team (especially for a rebuilding team, because that means the 1st is relatively high).

 
12 teams, 4 pt passing TDs:

Contender gives Brady, 2014 2nd

Doormat gives Peyton
Horrible value for Manning
Disagreed, if the doormat is a real doormat. All Peyton is doing this season is making his rookie pick worse, and there's no guarantee Peyton's even back next year (I'd say it's extremely likely, but if he wins a league MVP and a superbowl, you never know). Even if Manning comes back next year, he'll still be a year older and a year closer to the end than Brady.I think people are quick to forget just how amazing Brady has been since 2007, and too quick to assume that his recent production is the new normal going forward. I like that trade for an out-of-contention team.
It isn't the Brady part that I hate. I think he will be fine, but when you trade a guy in record pace that is winning fantasy games by himself you should get at least a first with it. I would call it fair if you got Brady a 1st and a 2nd or long shot prospect.

In 12 team leagues, the stars have to align fit you to get a first for Peyton. Not every league has a contender who needs a qb

I don't like it either. If the team is a doormat, why even bother trading for Brady at all? He's a whopping year and a half younger than Peyton and has already shown more signs of decline at an age where it's not at all uncommon for people to start declining.

It's a bad trade because he's giving up his best trade piece for something that doesn't help him. Look through the other stuff that Peyton has been traded for in this thread. Every single one of those helps a rebuilding team more than Brady/2nd does.

ETA: Just saw the guy giving Peyton said he wasn't able to find anything better for him. I guess that makes it better, but I find it hard to believe there wasn't someone out there willing to give something better. I think a guy like Christine Michael might have been in play from a contender and I'd much rather have him than Brady/2nd in a rebuild.

Peyton owner in my league needs serious help at RB and wants to move Peyton, but is asking for no less than a RB1 a QB and picks.

I feel like hes gonna have some RB trouble for a while.

Ya back when I was 3 and 3 and in the hunt still the Peyton owner came to me and offered me Manning for Doug Martin and Rueben Randle. He actually got mad when I told him I would be interested in Manning but if he wanted Martin and Randle he would have to add quite a bit to the trade.

Leagues vary, and there are some leagues where no one wants to pay for Manning. Most contenders already have their QBs, so what the few (if any) candidates are willing to pay can vary greatly. It can take years sometimes to find the right trade for a QB and Manning owners don't have the time to wait.

 
I would have to say Manning for Brady and a 2nd is NOT a move I would make, rebuilding or not.

I much rather "risk" just hanging on to him and trying to deal him in the offseason or during next year if there is an injury or someone has a badly underachieving QB or something. Brady won't get nearly as much in return next year. In theory of course.

Being serious. In the history of the NFL, has there EVER been a RB that has gotten this much work and looked this bad doing it..........then suddenly turned around and become a really good player??

QBs sure, WRs, sure, TEs sure, most other positions, sure. RB???? This many carries and this many looks?

Put whatever blame you want on the O-line. When there is good blocking he STILL looks terrible.

I think it is as proven as things can be in the land of fantasy football that Richardson is NOT a legit top end RB. I realize crazier things have happened, but this is a 1 in 100 IMO.

As I'm fond of saying, it's easy to say "oh, his value SHOULD be this, or his value SHOULD be that", but the truth is, each league is a market unto itself, and "should" doesn't carry much weight. If the Peyton Manning owner is looking to sell, he only has so many potential partners. He needs to approach someone who is (a) a contender and (b) disappointed with his QB production (the Brees, Stafford, and possibly even Rodgers owners, for instance, aren't going to be super-interested in paying a future 1st for a 2-week rental or minor cosmetic upgrade). The problem is that guys who are disappointed with their QB production are not often contenders. Add in the fact that in many leagues, the QB market is particularly anemic, and in many leagues, the market for old players is particularly anemic, and it's possible that Brady + 2nd blew away any other offer on the table, "should" or no "should".

At the end of the day, the trade is about "is that guy's roster better off with Peyton Manning or with Brady and a 2nd?" Market value aside, I think his roster is better off with Brady and the 2nd. Brady has more years remaining and just as strong of a history of production, (you know that "record-setting" season of Manning's? Who's the guy who holds those records right now, again?), so when you throw in a 2nd rounder (and the not-to-be-overlooked improvement to the team's 1st rounder that comes from getting rid of such a productive player), I think that's a net win for the rebuilding team. Not a huge win, but still a win.

Eric Metcalf, Keith Byars, and Reggie Bush were both pretty atrocious on their first 400 career carries. Those guys got a ton of their value through the air, although Richardson's 51 receptions as a rookie are nothing to sneeze at. Dorsey Levens and Thomas Jones both had a lower YPC than Trent Richardson through their first two seasons, and Tiki Barber, Ricky Williams, and Matt Forte weren't too far ahead of him. Cedric Benson, another former top-5 pick, had a pretty atrocious start to his career, but still managed to salvage a pair of RB2 seasons in Cincinnati.

Top 5 picks get a lot of rope with which to hang themselves. We're not talking about second chances, we're talking about third and fourth chances. Take a look at the list of top-5 RBs since 1980. Outside of injury, there are not a whole lot of complete and total busts on that list. It's hard in the moment to remember that how things are now is not necessarily how things will be forever, but I'd say that Richardson's chances at fantasy relevance are much higher than 1%. I'm willing to at least give him an offseason with the Colts before burying him completely.

10 Team PPR, QRRWWWTKD, Flex R/W/T and Superflex of any position. Cutdown to 25 players before the season starts, have two waiver periods during the week, only allowed to add 12 players, but don't have to drop anyone, and are allowed to keep just one of our adds after the season ends.

Team B won the league last year, odds on favorite to repeat.

Team C has a good core, got unlucky in early matchups, followed by injuries, now has a roster that can win the league in 2014, along with two top 5 picks.

Team D was a contender, now either just misses the playoffs or early round exit

Team E has a shot at the title, needed a TE, will need a bit of luck, and has mostly avoided injuries

Got:

I love Luck but this seems like alot to me
Assuming this is a 1 QB league it's horrible trade.
:goodposting: That's really, really bad. Gordon alone > Andrew Luck in 1 QB setups.
Disagree on that (i think they're equal, but I like getting a stud qb in dynasty), but neither first should have been included.

Disagree on Gordon, he's a knucklehead that enjoys suspension time. Luck is the opposite.

 
12 Tm QRRWWWTF 1PPR for all

Gave: Reed, 1st (curr 5, likely 4-8), A.Dalton

Got: Gronk

Trade took place right before the games kicked off/Reed injury. Big Reed fan, but very happy about this deal, despite the likely value of the pick, in a strong class.

12 Tm QRRWWWTF 1PPR for all

Gave: D.Murray, VJax, Eifert

Got: C.Patterson, 1st (Curr 3, likely 2-5), R.Williams (likely next cut)

I lost value on this, but would do it again, if needed. Solid roster on paper - struggled due to injuries, mostly Gronk's and it's affect on Brady's numbers.

It's more about supply / demand than a commentary on Luck. Or even Gordon, for that matter. If I were building an NFL franchise, Luck would be near to or at the very top of the list. In FF, you can find middling QB1 production for peanuts right now. Agree that Gordon is a knucklehead, but he's also put up pretty spectacular numbers in a pretty rough situation. I'd personally rather invest resources in "other than QB" right now, and roll with a Romo, Rivers, Big Ben, etc on the cheap.

It's more about supply / demand than a commentary on Luck. Or even Gordon, for that matter. If I were building an NFL franchise, Luck would be near to or at the very top of the list. In FF, you can find middling QB1 production for peanuts right now. Agree that Gordon is a knucklehead, but he's also put up pretty spectacular numbers in a pretty rough situation. I'd personally rather invest resources in "other than QB" right now, and roll with a Romo, Rivers, Big Ben, etc on the cheap.
This.

Also hard to see if CLE drafts a QB how Gordon's stock doesn't get a serious bump up so waiting 5 weeks and hoping Gordon can keep his nose clean his value will just increase.

Anyway I get the love affair with Luck and having a true #1 QB but in fantasy week to week I don't see Luck being JGordon + 2 1sts better than Tannehill. Especially considering you have Peyton and the QB class next year looks to have some pretty solid prospects

Gave: D.Murray, VJax, Eifert

Got: C.Patterson, 1st (Curr 3, likely 2-5), R.Williams (likely next cut)

I lost value on this, but would do it again, if needed. Solid roster on paper - struggled due to injuries, mostly Gronk's and it's affect on Brady's numbers.
Good move for 2014+. Even assuming Murray and VJax hold their value, you could probably get them both back with that pick next June. By moving them, you offload the (non-trivial) risk of injury onto someone else.
 
Just pushed this trade through:

Team A sent:

Ray Rice

Golden Tate

2014 1st (early mid)

Team B sent:

Demaryious Thomas
Pretty bad for the side shipping Thomas. Unless Rice gets a second wind, he's gonna have to hit a home run with that pick to break even.
