I am in talks to acquire Lamb in one league but obviously have major concerns as you noted.
Thats the fear-- thinking the same thing but do I want Lamb coming back from a HAS On a 1-6 or 1-7 or 2-7 Dallas team??
It can still be a risky play even if it’s worked in the past. It’s not like Ceedee is built like a Deebo or Puka either. Personally, just don’t think the reward is worth the risk of a play call like that. It’s the Cowboy’s though so it doesn’t really surprise me.
You shouldn’t consider that, because the CeeDee owner won’t.
I tend to agree but it wouldn't hurt to ask.
That is what I was thinking but injuries are starting to derail her team and these 2 are the best I'm willing to offer. At least they would give her a chance this week and give her healthy bodies that are desperately needed.
Then you don't really want Lamb. This is a terrible offer.
But, he's an Alpha Dawg tho - doesn't that account for anything nowadays?
Nowadays everybody is some kinda of a dog who plays or follows this game.
Agree with this. That is insulting. Not a starting offer that I would even counter.
Lmao no cd owner is taking that
Yea, I agree! Was just trying to get some feedback from you all. I use Roto Trade for many trades I've made and entertained. Watched a video where it took 3 decent players to get this trade to work. I don't want to gut my team now but will need to work something in a few weeks prior to my mega BYE week to plug in for 5 starters.
I wouldn’t trade for 8 players of the caliber you were including. For a lamb player you need a stud or right below with a high ceiling.

I personally want someone better than Golden, but some people like him fine.
Keep Trade Cut had it relatively even but that didn't sound right to me.
Keep Trade Cut (my opinion) makes an attempt to add value because of getting the biggest pieces and because of freeing up roster spots, but it doesn't come particularly close to doing so enough. So if I'm putting a trade in there that involves one piece that is a lot bigger than the ones on the other side, if it's a deal that I think is around fair, it's usually going to be saying the team getting the big piece is losing significantly.
I've thought the division game against Washington in week 7 was probably the most likely scenario, but week 6 against Carolina wouldn't be surprising. I thought the same thing, that Lamb was sure moving around on the sideline well.@NFL

As a CeeDee owner it would absolutely hurt you to offer that to me. I’d be insulted and wouldn’t see you as a serious person afterwards.
Someone just offered me Tyreek Hill, a 1st and a 3rd for Rashee, which I rejected without comment or counter.
KTC Is largely trash, IMO.
I feel ya. So far I've lost Mixon, CeeDee, Nabors, Kittle, Worthy, and now Tillman and Pearsall. And don't even get me started on my IDPs. I can't shake this IR curse I'm on. In one deep league we have 10 IR spots and every year I damn near double that amount of IR players. It's truly a curse. I kick myself for continuing to play FF.
I much prefer KTC over trade value charts. I just have to take it with a grain of salt (but to me you need a whole pile of salt with a trade value chart). I like that it's crowd-sourced because that should give pretty good accuracy, and also that means it updates way faster than a monthly chart. I think there are things they could do to hone in the adjustments. Like start throwing some 2-for-1 deals out there to see how people actually judge them, rather than just guessing the adjustment number.
Also, one difficult part is scoring variations. You could pick a few basic variations, have people set their league scoring, and then have all the results sequestered into the different scoring variations. But then the sample size is going to suffer. But what would be cool is, if you even had everyone specify lineups, roster size, everything, so that the data is sequestered into way-too-small samples, but if you could find a way to formulaically use data from similar scoring systems to add estimated data each other (e.g., take the data from 3WR leagues but skew it in some way to add data to 2WR leagues, and vice versa).
That’s not a valid conclusion, IMO.
Yeah, the value they give to roster spots is outright ridiculous.
The value bonus I think is kind of both the "stud bonus" when you have an elite player versus a bunch of average joes (2000+2000+2000+2000+2000 should be far less than 9999, for instance), and also the roster spots bonus for the players that can be picked up by the team giving up more pieces. So I often try to take the roster spot part of that out of the equation, by adding in replacement level players until the number of players on each side is equal.
I sincerely hope they took that CeeDee run play out of the playbook, dug a hole, dropped it in there, soaked it with gasoline & rubbing alcohol, lit it on fire, peed on it, then covered it in radioactive waste, buried the smoldering remains under freshly poured concrete, and marked the site as a hazard not to be disturbed for 5 generations.
Makes sense. They should slip by CAR this week without him.
@VoiceOfTheStar
i couldn’t readily identify any added tape on CeeDee Lamb’s ankle today.(i got a close-up for your own assessment.)
likely one reason for his smile and his added energy in today’s rehab group.
soon, 88. #Cowboys
