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.yikes, you failied not taking the other deal before this past game, lol.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.Even the biggest Trent lovers should realize they should be getting him for quite a bit less than that.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.Who did you make that trade with, Richardson himself??? His mom???That is huge for you.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.
And I have no idea why you thought you would get more than that before last nights game.
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.
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.
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.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.
that is awful for the dude that traded away shorts and Mathews. What were they thinking?12 team PPR
Gave: J Randle/Mike Brown/2014 2nd/2014 3rd/2015 2nd (all picks should be late in the round
Got: Shorts/R Mathews
Way too much, even for a rebuilding team (especially for a rebuilding team, because that means the 1st is relatively high).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.
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.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.Horrible value for Manning12 teams, 4 pt passing TDs:
Contender gives Brady, 2014 2nd
Doormat gives Peyton

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 isn't the Brady part that I hate.

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.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.
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 don't like it either. If the team is a doormat, why even bother trading for Brady at all?

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.
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??Adam Harstad said:Too early to call it proven.

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".msudaisy26 said:It isn't the Brady part that I hate.

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.Being serious.

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.

Regardless of what you think about him, people will pay a lot to get him.Disagree on Gordon, he's a knucklehead that enjoys suspension time. Luck is the opposite.
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.Disagree on Gordon, he's a knucklehead that enjoys suspension time.

It's close. I like Lacy more than Rice, enough to justify making this deal. But, again, it's close.12 team non PPR
Gave Rice, Pierce, Ingram
Received Lacy, Franklin, Mike James (I have Martin)
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.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.
Think I still like the Rice side better but can hardly fault anyone for making a deal like that if they think Rice is nearing the end.It's close. I like Lacy more than Rice, enough to justify making this deal. But, again, it's close.12 team non PPR
