[Dr. Octopus]

Made last week:

Richardson

Cook

2015 and 2016 first round picks

for

Gronk

A Brown

Not many leagues allow trading that far out. Do you have to pay for 2016 ahead of time?

Pretty good haul for Rich and picks far into the future.

Yes, we do have to pay ahead. A 2018 1st was traded for Decker earlier this season.

Who would trade for a 2018 pick?

I'd trade for one, but I sure wouldn't give a guy like Decker.

Maybe the second best offer for Decker was a 2019 pick?

Maybe, and won't the guy who traded the pick look silly when he only has a 31 year old receiver to show for the pick?

Yeah these 5 1/2 year rental type trades usually backfire. Guy just gave up all his exit value.

12 team, 0.5 PPR, start 1/2/3/1

I give: Vereen, Mathews, 2015 1st, 2014 2nd, 2014 3rd

I get: Forte

Making a push to win it this year, as injuries have hurt my team. Baring disaster, 2015 should be very late. 2nd is mid round; 3rd is high. Due to my roster and 2014 picks I still have, the 2nd and 3rd are low value to me.

A bit too much for me to give up for Forte. I think Vereen+Mathews is fair, but perhaps I am high on Vereen. Hope it works out for you.

 

[Concept Coop]

14 Team No PPR

Gave: JCook

Got: 2014 2nd Round Rookie Pick (late)

Picked up TWright (TE/WR -yahoo) to fill the space - he is my 3rd TE but love his upside more that Cook and got a 2nd Rounder out of the deal.

It wouldn't take much for me to move on from Cook, in a stardard format (not TE heavy). I would have hoped for an early-mid 2nd, but if this was the best I could get, I'd likely take it. I'm not a fan.

 

[Concept Coop]

12 Team PPR

Team A got Justin Blackmon

Team B got Danny Woodhead

My roster status would determine my stance on the trade. Woodhead is putting up very solid points right now, so if I needed the production, I'd move Blackmon for this. If I was a year out, I'd take a gamble on JB. Solid move, IMO.

I couldn't disagree more. Blackmon, although a guy with what appears to be a serious issue, is a young, elite level talent. I'd much rather gamble on that than a small passing down backup RB who will likely have a short shelf-life in fantasy. Regardless of the makeup of my roster.

I agree, this is an awful, short-sighted trade. If Blackmon is successful at rehab then his value shoots way up next year. Everyone loves a comeback story.

Why are we to assume that he has a short shelf-life? The guy I most compare him to - Darren Sporles - looks very fresh at 30 YO.

Woodhead is putting up RB1 numbers in PPR formats - "small passing down backup" or not. The value that provides is significant, and could certainly be the difference between playoffs and missing - potentially more than that.

Blackmon is a WR3 now, in my opinion. If I am competing, I'd move on from that for a few years of boderline RB1 production.

ETA: Woodhead is on pace for 98 receptions this year.

 

[Concept Coop]

If Blackmon is successful at rehab...

What do we put those odds at? He's in level 3 of the drug program, will be tested for the rest of his career (for a drop, if it was indeed booze), and has one more shot, or he's done for good.

While I'll take the Blackmon side, people underplay Woodhead. The guy has elite level speed and led the NCAA in rushing yards his last year in school (albeit at a Division II school). The guy isn't just a gimmick, he can play.

That said - Blackmon is an elite level talent and a trade like this is worth the risk.

PPR, 1.5 PPR TE

2 RB / 3 WR / 1 TE / 2 FLEX (Max 1 Flex at a position)

Team 1 gave up:

Vereen, Shane NEP RB
Cameron, Jordan CLE TE

Green, Ladarius SDC TE

ETA:

Team 1: 5-4, tied for lead in division

Very risky win-now move. Green has a chance of becoming a stud TE himself.

Blackmon may never play again

I got ripped by some for trading Blackmon for Garcon when he got suspended for 4 games.

Risk is way too high with blackmon now.

What do we put those odds at? He's in level 3 of the drug program, will be tested for the rest of his career (for a drop, if it was indeed booze), and has one more shot, or he's done for good.

They're low, but as good as Woodhead is playing right now he turns 29 in January. I'll take the 24 yo lottery ticket.

 

[az_prof]

Just agree today to this:

Team A is rebuilding and gets Ben Tate

Team B is contending and gets an upgrade at TE: Witten

I think it is pretty fair to both teams.

 

[cstu]

Team A gave: Doug Martin, Crabtree, and Jordan Reed

Team B game: Calvin, Vick, Stepfan Taylor and 2014 2nd (early)

It's a tough one. Woodhead is turning 29, but doesn't have much wear, makes his living mostly as a pass catcher, and has a fairly clean injury record I think. No reason to think he'll slow down anytime soon.

 

[Don Quixote]

Tom Brady just traded in a 12 team PPR for 3rd and 6th round rookie picks.

Did not know he was on the market, or would have tried making a move for him.

 

[msudaisy26]

12 Team PPR

Team A got Justin Blackmon

Team B got Danny Woodhead

I like this trade for both teams.

 

[msudaisy26]

14 Team No PPR

Gave: JCook

Got: 2014 2nd Round Rookie Pick (late)

Picked up TWright (TE/WR -yahoo) to fill the space - he is my 3rd TE but love his upside more that Cook and got a 2nd Rounder out of the deal.

Love getting the pick in this trade. Cook is over rated.

 

[Adam Harstad]

One last one right before the deadline. 12-team PPR, start 1/2/3/1 with 1 flex.

Team A gave: Tavon Austin, 2014 2nd

Team B gave: Knowshon Moreno, 2014 3rd

Team A is 5-4 and 4th in the league in scoring, but plays in the weaker conference and owns one of the first-round byes on tiebreakers. Team B is last in the league. Both picks are team B's, and will almost certainly be at the very top of the round.

 

[Spin]

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

Team A trades:

Hakeem Nicks (4 years)

Team B trades:

2014 1st - Likely mid to late

Team A is stacked at wr, and in first place in his division, was the likely favorite to win it all but who knows how Rodgers' injury shakes out.

Team B is 2 - 7, last in points for, and had 3 2014 1sts (still owns his own).

 

[Spike]

Blackmon and Finely for Torrey Smith

Not involved in this one but.

Jordan Reed and Welker for Fitzgerald and Fred Jackson non playoff teams

12 team PPR

Torrey Smith by a lot, and I'm not a Torrey Smith fan.

On non-contending teams, give me Reed/Welker.

I actually would go the other way and take Blackmon and Finely. I am just not a Smith fan and think he will be nothing more then a little better version of Lee Evans. Blackmon could and this is a big COULD put himself up there with Julio, Green, and the others if he can get himself right and Jacksonville will be getting a quarterback this year.

Glad I'm not the only one...

 

[r0llin_game]

12 team ppr QRRWWTKFF

Team A gives: Knowshon Moreno

Team B gives: Cordarelle Patterson

Team A is rebuilding and his WR core isn't anything special right now.

Team B is obviously competing. Rebuilt and made the title game after a lot of luck and the other semi game having the top two teams in the league play one another.

12 team ppr QRRWWTKF

I gave: Russell Wilson, Zac Stacy, Mike James

I received: Aaron Rodgers, Arian Foster, Andre Ellington

Team that traded with me is a title contender, didn't have anyone behind Rodgers that was starting, and trying to sell off Arian for as much as he can get.

I've ran really bad with matchups along with injuries. I'm now probably going to sell Arian for what I can get and if I don't find a satisfactory offer, then I'll be fine rolling with him next year.

My core:

Rodgers

Foster/Bush/Miller/DMC/Ellington

Julio/Cobb/Harvin/Alshon

Gronk

Two top five picks.

Blackmon may never play again

Risk is way too high with blackmon now.

Blackmon will play again, and at an elite level, imo. Superb Buy Low candidate.

 

[Casting Couch]

I also think a ring with Denver this year and there's a very strong chance that he retires.

This is my concern with the Broncos players. I also think it's possible he retires if he breaks the TD record but doesn't win the SB. At this point anything could happen since he has nothing left to prove and will only keep playing if he really enjoys it (and is healthy).

He has nothing left to prove ?

He has a playoff record of 9-11, and one Super Bowl in 15 years.

Seems like he has a lot yet to prove, unless you all you care about are stats.

He's won a SB, owns a ton of statistical records and is considered one of the best QB's of all-time. While another SB with his second team would be a great feather to stick in his cap, going through another grueling NFL season to attempt it might not be worth it for him.

Yeah, this just boils down to us disagreeing heavily on Blackmon. I'm not a Torrey Smith fan, but he's still a dynasty WR2, which is a lot more than I can say for Justin Blackmon right now.

[SieteCinco]

12 Team 1PPR 2QB-2RB-2WR-1TE-1Flex

Team A Gave - Teddy Bridgewater, Hakeem Nicks, Kenbrell Thompkins, 2014 3rd
Team B Gave - Ryan Tannehill, Jonathan Stewart, Quinton Patton, 2014 2nd

Team A is contending, just lost Aaron Rodgers/Sam Bradford/EJ Manuel, and still hasn't gotten off the Stewart bandwagon (me).

Team B is in last looking towards the future and wasn't a fan of Tannehill but is a huge Hakeem Nicks supporter. Should have the 1.01 (1.02 at worst with the bracket set up) AND already will already have Teddy Bridgewater/Marqise Lee rostered due to the devy/rookie drafts (will also get Cobb/Crabtree back so he's a worst to first candidate in 2014)

 

[ConnSKINS26]

Clear win for the Bridgewater/Nicks side

I like it. I'd take Christine Michael alone for all of that.

Michael for Brown, Pryor and a 2nd? I'll take the Brown side.

 

[Eminence]

Gave:

Foster (4-year)

Blackmon (3-year)

Christine Michael (2-year)

Got:

Larry Fitzgerald (3-years)

Lamar Miller (3-years)

Ryan Mathews (3-years)

Hear me through this, I'm sitting at 6 - 3. Foster got me a big 'zero' last week. Texans season is a bust. He sees Doctors today?

The other guy is 1-8 and just took over the team. He probably doesn't care how,well Foster produces.

Blackmon is suspended. Can't play, Lamar Miller can help me score now. The O-line situation blows, but I think it hurts Tannehil more.

Christine Michael is talented but only on a 2-year deal. He's not going to see significant carries next year, either.

 

[Eminence]

Fitzgerald will be gold til he retires. Starting to think he may leave Arizona.

Got:

Christine Michael, Mark Ingram, Charles Johnson

I like it. I'd take Christine Michael alone for all of that.

Michael for Brown, Pryor and a 2nd? I'll take the Brown side.

In a vacuum, it would be a pretty tough decision for me, but I'm a huge Michael fan and my WR corps consists of: Dez, Marshall, Harvin, Shorts, White. Which is pretty strong in a 14 teamer. So I went for the RB upside, as there I don't have any long-term prospects: Chris Johnson, Danny Woodhead, Fred Jackson, MJD.

 

[FUBAR]

Clear win for the Bridgewater/Nicks side

I like Tannehill quite a bit and Patton has potential but would take nicks and Tompkins

[Concept Coop]

Clear win for the Bridgewater/Nicks side

Have to agree. In a start 2 QB league, I'd trade that for Teddy alone. I like Tannehill more as an NFL prospect than a fantasy prospect.

I'd take Gronk without much thought, especially if that pick isn't top 3. But there is potential on the others side, so it could work out.

Risky, but so is holding onto Gronk when you're a rebuilding team. Anything could happen the rest of the season to crush his value. That's a solid trade for a team that's not in it.

Gronk is 24 man, less than a year older than both Blackmon and Jeffrey. He's the exact guy that you build around.

 

[thriftyrocker]

Even if you assume Gronk is a huge injury risk he's still a huge payout lottery ticket which is equally appealing to a rebuilder.

 

[DexterDew]

as a Gronk owner in many leagues, that is not nearly enough to even consider. He is the type of player you build around, one of the few difference makers

 

[RoxSolid]

10 team. Non-PPR

Team A Trades:

Kendall Wright

Giovani Bernard

Team B Trades:

EJ Manuel

Montee Ball

Seems like a win for the Wright/Bernard team currently.

Team A Trades:

Andy Dalton

Team B Trades:

2nd round pick 2014 (most likely pick ends up between #17-#20)

Team B had Schaub as his only QB behind Luck.
