Randy Moss? Has anyone sold high? (1 Viewer)

[Gottabesweet]

I'm in a dynasty league, got offered Braylon Edwards, Michael Turner and Brandon Marshall

for Randy Moss.

His team is loaded, deep rosters. If he aquires Moss and Moss' plays half of what he has thus far, he will probably win it all.

I may be able to compete with him this year though.

Thoughts?

Edit to add: I have Tomlinson.

My other WR's are AJ, Evans, Moss, Berrian, Cotchery, Reggie Brown, then a bunch of scrap.

(start 3) 1 flex rb/wr and 2bs.

 

[tombonneau]

By definition, anyone selling Moss would of course be high.

Dynasty, that might be a good trade, but I can't imagine any re-drafters taking it.

You're talking about a crazy ceiling with Moss and Brady. Honestly, if he is healthy, there is no reason he doesn't keep up a similar pace.

And you can't argue that Moss won't be getting these kinds of yards in blowouts, because he is EXACTLY getting these stats in blowouts.

Just imagine what will happen if there is a close game and the D is playing subpar and Brady needs to sling it all day.

 

[rubrink]

I traded him in a 3-team keeper for Javon Walker and Jones-Drew

Not even that high on MJD, but you keep based on where he was drafted, and he was drafted in the 13th, so I can't pass that up

Should I have reconsidered?

 

[twitch]

dont do it, man. I know its a dynasty, but you can still look down the road for 3 more years with Moss and feel good about it. He's rejuvinated with New England and will probably re-sign with them long term at some point during the season or just beyond. He's only 30. By most standards, Id expect atleast 3 or 4 more solid years out of him. How far ahead do you want to look? And I like Braylon Edwards, but they wont play the Bengals every week. And where exactly is Turner playing next year? Youre dealing with uncertainties making that trade. Dont give Moss to a stacked team. His value will stay where it is because he's going to continue to do good things. Moss is giving you 1500 15TDs this year...with emphasis on YOU.

I think not When you get LT and Randy together you should be worrying about this year...not next year.

 

[Sinners]

I paired Moss with Shockey and got Steven Jackson in return in my dynasty league. I hope it pays off!

 

[Deuce'sWild]

Been offered Rudi Johnson and Driver for Moss and A. Green.

Was going to accept it, but I'm not 100% sure now. I may just sit on Moss.

I am very thin at RB2 though (Foster,Deuce, A. Green, D. Ward)....so it's hard to pass on Rudi. Henry is my RB1

Other WRs are Walker, Berrian, Galloway.

 

[booda]

Just traded Moss & Lamont Jordan for Larry Johnson & Deion Branch..

Not thinking twice about it.. I now pair LJ with S. Alexander..

x2... Sometimes you just have to go for all the marbles... Looks like the OP has the horses to win now..

 

[King of the Wolfies]

I offered Housh, KJ, and Graham for Moss. No answer yet, which is surprising being that her ONLY RBs are SJax, Caddy and MBell. and her only TE is Shockey and she has no cap $ to use WW.

Not really, considering that on most weeks Moss will outscore Housh, KJ, and Graham.By the way, at what point did sell high come to mean "trade highly productive players for whatever you can get"?

Exactly.Moss at this point of the season is a top 10 player not WR player in many scoring systems. To Sell high would mean getting either a top RB straight up or getting 2 very good but lesser players for him.Not a bunch of maybes and wishful thinking.But thats just my opinion.For me I have been sitting on Moss in Dynasty through the past 2 years (lost some games because of him) and built my team to win without him. Now I am stoning the compitition hardcore. Just cannot think of many (or any) scenarios that would cause me to part with Moss.

Randy Moss owners should trade him.

Any respectable package acquiring 2 starters and maybe a throw-in. I doubt his value can get any higher than today(pre-randy-rants) Especially in dynastys league where building depth at all positions for present and future considerations is a key factor.

Randy Moss = Any top 13-15wr/top 15 RB + high end #3rb maybe low end #2 + throw-in prospects. Maybe a bit much.

bottom line: Use Moss's value to build up your dynasty team with multiple pieces. Maybe even grab a young qb(Culter,Schaub,VY, Big Ben) to upgrade your starting qb or qb depth.

Housh is a borderline top 10 WR and KJ is a long term top 10 RB in ppr leagues. I don't know the format of that league, but if it's a dynasty ppr league, that's not a completely lopsided offer.

 

[The Man with the Plan]

It's like real life sports. Almost every time a bunch of decent players get traded for a stud the team getting the stud gets the best of the deal. It looks good on paper but the studs are studs for a reason. I'm from the old school. If I'm trading a stud I have to get a stud back. Otherwise no deal.

 

[omally]

This belongs in the trade thread.

 

[PantherPower]

in my PPR scoring Dynasty league, Randy Moss was just traded for Lee Evans and 2008 1st & 2nd round rookie picks

 

[Ministry of Pain]

I try not to toke when I am working trades, clouds the mind a bit.

 

[Phurfur]

I traded him in a 3-team keeper for Javon Walker and Jones-Drew Not even that high on MJD, but you keep based on where he was drafted, and he was drafted in the 13th, so I can't pass that up Should I have reconsidered?

Yes, once the season starts where a player is drafted means nothing. There were allot of people who thought MJD was a reach at #13. I had him rated as a high 3rd rounder.

Sounds like what people were saying about T.O. and the Eagles just a few years ago...

Why?

Randy Moss = Any top 13-15wr/top 15 RB + high end #3rb maybe low end #2 + throw-in prospects. Maybe a bit much.

If your team needs WR2 and RB2 depth players and youth and your team is not playoff caliber then I can see going this route and moving Moss. If your team does not need the depth and/or is contending for a title this year then you do NOT trade down to lesser players without hurting your chances to win this year.

bottom line: Use Moss's value to build up your dynasty team with multiple pieces. Maybe even grab a young qb(Culter,Schaub,VY, Big Ben) to upgrade your starting qb or qb depth.

As I said above nothing wrong with doing this if you have needs. But almost any player you could get in return for Moss at this point will be a downgrade so to trade him you should only be doing so to fill needs that are a higher priority for you. You still need to sell high and get enough in return for him if you do move him for depth however. That depth should have very good potential besides being somewhat proven. For example Fitz/Benson or somthing like that could be a good move for a team needing the depth.

How about Rudi, Driver?

Yes I consider that around the same level although not as much long term potential. Much stronger trade in redraft than dynasty obviously but worth considering in dynasty as well if you have the needs.I was not even counting on Moss for this year so I have plenty of depth. Moss is hammering my compitition as a WR3 (although he is my best WR thats the slot I am playing him from due to other players I have) and I don't see any reason to trade him. Age 30.. still plenty left in him. Looking for that contract extension with the Pats now.

PLEASE sign an extension....

 

[bro1ncos]

I traded Moss in a dynasty league after week 1 for Jason Avant and 2008 1st rounder (5-8 most likely). I wasn't big on Moss then and still am not now, but do wish I would have waited another week and sold him even higher.

I'll look for you next time they're interviewing shark attack victims on Animal Planet . . .

 

[Traders2001]

Actually i have MOss i traded away Donte Stallworth and Trent Green for him 1 week before the season started . ( Dynasty League ) .

I would try to get Roy WIlliams , Vernand Morency and a second round rookie pick for him ( I am a Brandon Jackson - Wynn owner )

 

[Homer]

Moss fetched M. Barber, J. Jones AND Denver D in my keeper league after a huge game week 1. Half tghe league was screaming IDIOT at the guy that traded FOR Moss, but 2 good games make a good trend for the guy that started out with both Dallas backs caddying to Bush and Addia (despite potshots that Barber >>> Bush!).

Hope y'all sold high. Unfortuately, no one in my league offered me a bunch of second and third tier players for Moss before his value tanked, so I guess I'm stuck with him at this point . . .
