What's the most you would give (pick wise in dynasty) for Jeudy if you're buying?
Agree and I've yet to hear anyone be able to say what in his game regressed so much from last season when he was highly productive for most of the second half of the year.
I think it was in this thread but when people got excited about what Sean Payton could do for him I was saying I did not think it was a good fit, he's not the kind of WR that has had success in Payton led offenses. It sounds like excuses, because it is, I just think it's valid excuses that his nagging injuries, new system and being a young player dealing with constant trade rumors that go back to the 2022 off-season have been issues that I think have had a big impact on his performance.
Hard not to think considerably less of him then I once did, but I think better times are ahead for him.

Right now? A 2nd rounder. He's gonna be moved, so you have to think you're gonna cash in on that 2nd round pick

That’s the problem. You won’t get a 2nd rd rookie pick and you probably won’t take a 3rd. I’m tempted to take an early 3rd, or a late 2nd if I can get it, but probably can’t get it.

I think Denver is taking so much heat from the sport talking heads and on social media, that they are going to do all they can to take deeps shots to make their "decision" look right. I can see them trying to force the ball to Jeudy, especially with Sutton out. If Denver loses this game to a team in bigger disarray then them, heads are going to roll and no one should be safe.

This seems like a pretty big dig at Wilson.

I would absolutely toss a 2nd round pick for him. easily. if you really wanna sell, put him out there and see what u get

Jeudy has done so little in the NFL. I don’t understand the fascination.

Just shows how much latitude 1st round picks from a major school like Bama get

I think a lot of it has to do with his good play in the 2nd half of last year, but in general I agree with you.

Double cover Jeudy if both Sutton and Mims are out? I picked up Brandon Johnson if both Chase and Wicks are OUT.

Maybe they’ll double cover Johnson as a bigger threat - lol

Good deal for the Browns, reminds me of the Cooper trade where the contract makes him so cheap.
As for Juedy's fantasy value I'd consider this meh, not good or bad. Felt to me like Watson was looking a little better last year before the injuries and before this trade but the weather and target comp are not great even if Watson turns it around. Best thing Juedy can likely do is play well and improve his prospect for 2025.
Winner-Watson and the Browns
No losers to me.

Tim Patrick just got re-signed for a pittance so we have to assume he is fully healthy again. He and Jeudy would have been redundant and this frees up an additional $13m cap space for Denver on top of the draft pick. Win-win IMO.

Wow that is pretty much free. The Broncos couldn’t find a better offer?

Denver may be looking to draft a wr from this deep class. Patrick is meh. Wishing I hadn’t traded Mims for peanuts now.
Hard to believe now that people thought he was CeeDee like good.

I don't know what his contract is like, but of course the contract matters a lot in any trade. You're not trading assets for the player. You're trading assets for a contract, which can even have negative value.
I did not list any winners for Denver because I have just assumed Jeudy was gone based on reports I've been reading, mainly by Allbright who has been saying for weeks now he was as good as gone.
But if I was going to place winners for Denver I'd put Mims atop that list, his role is the one that will increase.
Patrick I am not assuming is totally healthy, just made sense to bring him back for near the league minimum.
If Patrick had been healthy last year I think he would have been one of the biggest steals in redrafts. Yes I said that. If he is actually healthy now, and again I'm dubious, I will maintain that position. Denver had huge plans for him, not sure he's up to it from a health angle, but if he is I expect that plan to continue.
$12M guaranteed.
Like I said earlier this is like the Cooper trade. Money making both of them close to free.

I get he is expensive but no body would give even a 4th? Sometimes I feel like these NFL teams take the first offer.

There will never again be a WR as majestic as he was in that fabled season.

All depends on which 5th. CLE has the first pick of Round 5. So that and a 6th would be just as good as a 4th.
Kinda depends on what Denver does at QB, but I think its more likely a downgrade, as target competition is tougher in Cleveland. I also think Wilson is better than what Cleveland has at QB, for as much crap as the Wilson trade has gotten, its still been a better move than Watson was, because at least they could get out of it.
I think this is probably getting close to dynasty waivers for Elijah Moore. Right now the pecking order is likely:
1. Cooper
2. Njoku
3. Jeudy
4. Tillman
5. Moore
Not that its all Denver should/will do, but I think Michael Thomas to Denver is a pretty easy/cheap dot to connect.
JohnnyU

I thought the Elijah Moore ship already left Southhampton.
Teams know the Broncos are over a barrel and need the cap relief. Plus Jeudy is only a one year rental and a bonehead. Text book case of million dollar talent and ten cent head. He was still making rookie type mental errors like not getting both feet inbounds or getting ripped by multiple commentators for lack of concentration and hustle, drops, you name it, on a regular basis in his fourth season.
Maybe a change of scenery and the Cleveland coaches can finally unlock his talent but I wouldn’t bet on it. As for fantasy, Watson has yet to pass for 300 yards in a game after 12 games with the Browns and under 200 multiple times. For some reason he just has not looked like the same guy at all as he was for the Texans. And now Jeudy has to compete with Cooper and Njoku for targets. :sad trombone:
First pick in the 5th round plus a 6th.
It's more then Cleveland gave up in trade comp for Cooper.

didn’t realize they had the first pick of the 5th rd thanks

They are trading for a 1 year, $13 mill contract.
That really lowers what you can expect
