****OFFICIAL DYNASTY TRADES**** (6 Viewers)

To pile on, terrible value for Henry.
<sheepishly slips Henry into my lineup>

Agree.  I wouldn't have sold him for that either.  But I had to buy at that price.  Initial price was 2 firsts and a 2nd, hence my psuedo-asst-coach-forum post above as I was torn.  But I turned it down because I'm about 2/3 of the way though a rebuild with a really young nucleus.  But price came down,  He really wanted to sell for some reason.  

Now I am for sure taking Chase 1.1.

Are either teams involved in this trade a member of the trade board?

Is the team that got the short end of the trade in the same division/conference as multiple members of the trade board?

People generally vote in a manner consistent with what helps them personally, rather than the integrity of the league.

I would (respectfully) ask the league to post the trade to Twitter to solicit unbiased opinions.  Clearly the trade board cannot be trusted.  If this trade is anything less than 95% for the Swift/Aiyuk side, I'd be shocked.
I don't disagree with the premise that greed drives a lot of people.  However, there is a faction of people out there who mumble the mantra "you can't overturn a trade unless its collusion... you can't prove collusion" in their sleep.  Bunch of sheep...

 
A commish shouldn't  need a vote on something like that.  Just overturn it, explain why it is dumb using real value ADP, and that's that.  If people dont agree, they can be commish.  

If people quit, good.  The league shouldn't exist anyway if that trade is ok

 
FFPC

I gave up: Antonio Gibson and Deebo Samuel

I got: Dak Prescott and Travis Etienne

I have Baker/Fields as QB's, but this allows me to cut Baker and Deebo was my Wr6 so figured I could give him up easily. This puts my team over the top with the only piece I was missing, a stud QB.

Now my likely starting lineup is something like this, with 4 good depth pieces for bye weeks. Just have to pick the right one. 

Prescott

J. Taylor, M. Sanders, C. Akers

AJ Brown, Godwin, Lamb

Kittle

Also have Javonte and Etienne as RB depth, and Sutton and Bateman was WR depth. 

 
Everyone in my league is trying to low-ball me for Dalvin Cook. "He's going to be 26", "His value will never be higher". Ok, but I also just won the championship last year, what "better value" will help me repeat?
I tried to move Kamera and Cook (to a lesser extent) this offseason but no one wants to pay close to their value because of being 26. No reason to sell difference makers like that at less than full value.

For sure you can't pass at that price.  I'd have jumped on that regardless of where my team was.  His resale value would be higher than that I'd assume.  Could flip him if needed and at worst he gives you an outside chance of contending this year.

I like this trade a lot.  I'm not as high on Gibson as some in here but you can wait on Etienne a little with your RBs and Deebo hasn't proved he can stay healthy.  Others may disagree but Dak puts you in a different place with your starters that makes this worth it.

 
Not sure I got the better of this one:

12Tm PPR 1QB

Gave Godwin, 2022 2nd

Received Waddle, Bateman
This one really could go either way.  I have no problem with either side.  Godwin is still young and who knows what you get with that future 2nd.  Waddle with Tua in Miami and Bateman on a non-passing Ravens offense could both never reach WR1 status.  I think I'd go with Godwin/2nd if I was trying to win now but if rebuilding at all I'd go with Waddle/Bateman.

I might be the highest in here on him but I probably take the ETN side because of Dak. And I don't even like either one of them that much but Deebo is almost unmoveable and it is worth it to unload him. I do think ETN is a small downgrade but I don't think it outweighs the difference between Dak and Deebo. You can't give Deebo away in my leagues.

Gibson is a poor mans CMC. He’s going to explode this year.

 
I don't see that personally.  I could see him having the type of sophomore season that we just saw Miles Sanders have last year when everyone was jocking him after his rookie season.
McKissic as a pass catching specialist really limits one of Gibson’s strengths.  I like Gibson well enough, but I think he’ll end up being best used as a 12-15 carry, 3-4 catch type rather than a 20+ carry per game workhorse.  I think he’s a bit overvalued in dynasty rankings, and a good offer would get me to move off of him.

Totally agreed.  Plus, he didn't get a ton of work in college and when they leaned on him just a bit last year he broke down.  I just don't see him ever getting the workload like you said.

 
Zealots PPR IDP. Don't know if people care about IDP trades in the Pool but...

Gave: Chase Young, pick 5.5

Got: Julio Jones, Calais Campbell

 
Really more of a brag to show that sometimes all you need to do is offer

12 team ppr sf, I’m defending the title and he is rebuilding

Give 1.05

Get Russell Wilson 

There wasn’t even a conversation. I offered blindly expecting to be rebuffed, he accepted without a word a few days later

 
12 team 1 QB PPR league. 
 

gave: Burrow

got: ‘22 1st (1.02 this year)

gave: Tannehill, 1.06

got: Cooper 

leaves me without a QB right now, but value felt too good to pass up in a 1 QB league. 

 
I’m not in IDP league but is Young worth that? Keeping in mind Julio’s age of course.
Depending on what you think Julio is worth. I took Chase Young with the 2.01 last year, and it was pretty much right on the nose as far as where he was going in Zealots. His value has only increased after last year. And our DLs do not score that well. It's a strict VBD thing.

Andy making deals, though. Probably due to DLs not scoring so well overall.

ewwwwwwww. for me the fall off after the top 3 is pretty large. i wouldnt even consider this
Which is why I like it so so much!  To be honest I can't believe the offer was accepted but so happy right now.

I took him at 1.12 and it was a ginormous mistake. Should have taken Aiyuk.

DL's don't score enough on Zealots. And this is a league I'm fed up with so I'm taking one more run at it this year. I'm now set up with Chubb/Javonte/Tyreek/Lamb/McLaurin/Julio/Mooney. That's pretty good in PPR!

I like the top 7 the most in start 1QB leagues, but the real fall off is after 1.9 (Chase, Pitts, Harris, ETN, Williams, Smith, Waddle, Lawrence, Bateman).

Bateman being in Baltimore scares me off.   Lamar isn't going anywhere so unless he has a Josh Allen leap with Andrews and Brown already there.

Won’t matter because he will be their alpha eventually.  Probably sooner than later.

 
He can’t help who drafts him.  That doesn’t mean he can’t be an alpha receiver that has success.  Being in Baltimore is a lot better than a lot of other teams.
Well it matters to us which team drafts players.  Mixon is a great example if he was in a better situation I think he could have been the best back in the league but Cincy has had a terrible OL and have not used Mixon to the best of his ability keeping him off the field on 3rd down.

 
14 team 1.5 TE PPR 1 QB

1.12 + Herbert

for

Mahomes
I think I would have tried to add a player with Herbert instead of the 1.12, but I don't see this as crazy bad. Mahomes side for me. FWIW, I have Lamar & Burrow in 1 QB PPR. I tried to get Mahomes & his owner wanted Lamar + 1.12 or Lamar + a guy like Aiyuk. No thanks, too steep for me...
