WR CeeDee Lamb, DAL (1 Viewer)

Just checking in, new Lamb owner. Full PPR league I traded DK and Chubb for him. Hoping he goes off like last year after the bye..
 
I wanted him so bad after losing Godwin and Aiyuk. Schedule is juicy. Owner wouldn’t budge so I had to lower my sights and go to other receivers. Owner was desperate for RB’s and I offered Hunt and Olave for him. Did Hunt straight up for Pickens instead.

wow. a 3 or 4 week starter for a Starting WR who will play the rest of the year (assuming good health). I think you got top dollar for him
 
I traded KW3 for him last week-- He had a bye and KW3 had another 25 so hes got some work to do!!
Yeah I could move Hunt because I was really strong at RB. Henry, K Williams (with Corum insurance), Montgomery, Hunt. Wanted to keep all but losing Aiyuk and Godwin hurt. I just can’t trade a top 3 RB for any receiver so was only considering moving Hunt or Montgomery
 
I just offered Ceedee for Nico straight up in a dynasty league and was turned down.

(it's a salary cap league and Ceedee is $45 and subject to escalation if he finishes top 15 WR and Nico is $2/2025 and isn't subject to escalation until after the 2025 season)

I would sit on Nico as well based on the cost.

I was taking a shot as I have lost way too many players to compete this year. I have lost at least one starting player mid game every week of the season so far (it's a full IDP league so we have a lot of starters and a 45 man roster).

Can’t blame you for that, would like the trade for you.

and it should be turned down. in any kind of salary cap type league where budget matters, that $45 dollar price tag eats up a whole lot of CeeDees value. I'd take Nico and his $2 price tag all day long and it wouldnt even be close.

Agreed. It's why I offered it. The difference is the team needs a playable WR now and is in the running. I was hoping to capitalize on that need.

well, thats not the type hed take outright anyhow. he will likely shop around and if he cant get a better offer he may come back to you. Personally I'd bet he doesnt but I guess I cant fault you for trying.
 
.Which side are you taking in this scenario? 0.5 PPR.
  • Lamb
  • Achane + Jauan Jennings
Keep in mind Achane could be an 8th round keep next season whereas Lamb walks for nothing.

This is an easy decline. He has a top 10 WR for essentially free. No way he gives up that.

You may want to change your keeper salary rules. In one that I am in, if a WR finishes top 15 in their position, they have to pay WR15 price to keep. This is to avoid this situation where a player has a top 10 WR for essentially free. Now it might not apply to Collins this year since he is going to miss 4 games, but this rule we have makes it very fair.

We assign contracts for up to 3 years. So if you are smart enough to give Collins a contract for three years before he does anything you get rewarded. Why shouldn't an owner be rewarded for that risk? After that initial (up to) 3 year contract the players is subject to escalation if they finish in the top 15 of their position. And if they are top 5 of their position they can escalate up to the average of the top 5 salaries of their position. Down side of giving a contract is if the guy isn't keeper worthy and you cut him you are then on the hook for the remaining salary on that contract. It can be costly.

OK, that gives more context. We keep players at the salary they were drafted and it increases every year. We don't do multiple year contracts. Every year is a one year contract. If you don't keep a player, they go back into the draft pool and we auction them off at the draft and their value changes. So sometimes it's not worth to keep at player at X if you think that you can get that player in the draft for less.

Kind of like your format to sign a contract up to 3 years. Adds another layer of complexity and strategy.
 
Next Gen Stats
CeeDee Lamb had 16.8 yards of separation when the pass arrived on his 7-yard TD reception, the 4th-most separation on a pass thrown into the end zone in the Next Gen Stats era (since 2016).

Lamb went off in the one dynasty league where I roster him, where I WANT to lose so I get a better draft pick, but Lamb gave me the win. Ugh.
 
A guy offered me Harrison and GWilson for Gibbs and lamb last week. I mean do you do that just hoping someone hits the wrong button?
 
CeeDee Lamb stats in Cooper Rush's last 5 starts (all in 2022):
- 5 rec, 68 yds (10 targets) (vs. PHI)
- 5 rec, 53 yds (8 targets) (vs. LAR)
- 6 rec, 97 yds, 1 TD (8 targets) (vs. WAS)
- 8 rec, 87 yds, 1 TD (12 targets) (vs. NYG)
- 7 rec, 75 yds (11 targets) (vs. CIN)
So you’re saying count on 15 points from this stud until Dak gets back? Not bad I suppose. Better than what Miami QBs did to Reek while Tua was out.
 
In true Cowboys fanboy fashion... I just traded Najee Harris for CeeDee Lamb in redraft. Pre-injury? No... post injury. I was a little tuned up and regret is kicking in, but if Cooper Rush can somehow keep this team afloat and Dak doesn't get tossed onto the IR... it could pay off.

I traded AJ for Lamb 3 weeks ago. Cooper Rush will target the heck out of Ceedee for sure!

Was going to post similar.

This dude is bust proof, baring injury. Wow.

That’s a great sell high for Najee.

Or you could say that was a dumb sell low on Lamb. Probably one of the dumbest trades I ever heard of to be honest.

Yeah, a lopsided trade for sure. Might be an owner that’s desperate for a RB. Maybe it’s not a PPR league. Who knows… just trying to make reasons for an uneven trade.
 
What would CD command in a trade in a 1 ppr league now that he's hurt and Dak is out. I'm thinking about sending out offers to move him. I think the Dallas season is over and how hard is he really going to try and stay on the field if they're not competitive in games.

Try to move him for Tyreek if you’re not comfortable with the Dallas situation. Maybe Kyren or Jonathan Taylor if you need a RB.
