He's been pretty darn good when on the field most of his career, so I don't think he was good because of the PEDs. But maybe he was still on the field because of the PEDs

It's not that I dislike him terribly. But I'm starting Lamb/Jefferson/Tee Higgins/Mooney so I could afford to let him go to try and shore up depth.

I'm actually not sure that return is enough for just Boston Scott. Let's put it this way, if those picks were traded for Scott, people may think it's a small overpay but no one would care much at all.

I don't even like Ek all that much and this is just terrible. Don't see how anyone could be ok with this coming back for a starting RB. Team B doesn't like winning I guess.

As long as those picks are late, I don't see this as a big overpay. Seems about right and you are right, getting in to the top 5 this year gives you an extremely talented player. I think this was a good move if you are a believer which you are.

This is fair enough and I love Adams but I wouldn't be trading for him right now until I knew what A-Rod was doing.

I've kind of always thought that with all else equal a pick around 1.05 was worth a pair of future 1sts.
Given that this class is a pretty good one and, while it can certainly change, right now people are mostly down on the 2022 class, I think this was a solid deal.
But that may be why the previous owner was letting him go. In general in a PPR league I don't think I make that trade if I know everything is the norm for Adams (A-Rod in town).

Opinions will vary from owner to owner but I think via the consensus Adams/Cook were pretty much equal before the Rodgers rumors. I think the side getting Adams here is taking on all the short-term risk and not really getting any sweetener on top to do so.

In the only league I have Adams, WR is king and it takes a LOT to get a stud. Just as an example, Chase, waddle and Smith all went before najee. I probably wouldn't trade Adams for cook there, but it's close. In leagues where values are more normal, cook is worth more for sure. But it's not a horrible trade.
This. These two were roughly equivalent two months ago before Aaron starting throwing another tantrum. This has the potential to not end well for the guy getting Adams. I would’ve needed more to part with Dalvin.
Smokin Okie
Footballguy
The guy who traded for Cook is loaded at WR. He still has AJB, Ridley, Scary Terry, and Lamb. At RB he had Mixon, Monty, and Edmonds. I guess he wanted to strengthen his RBs.
Jonesin For Some Football
Footballguy
Maybe but Dalvin Cook isn't really a discount as RBs are much harder to come by than WRs. Fair point though as he may not be available at all otherwise. I have him in my Dynasty league and I wouldn't move him and won't sell him at a discount now.

Cook is worth more than Adams in any format, however, there could be situations where that deal makes sense to get Adams.
That said, Cook side easily even before the Rodgers drama

12 team SF, PPR, IDP, TE premium.
Team A gives: Tom Brady, Bryan Edward's
Team B gives: 2022 1st
The owner that always overvalues his players sees this trade and announces J Reagor is on the Trade Block for a late 2022 1st!

Every time I see one of these I'm torn between "ugh this is the type of thing I'm glad doesn't happen in my league" and "I need to send out more offers bc you never know what people might accept"

Still seems really light for Saquon. And how stacked is this guys team that Barkley is his RB3?

pretty stacked, esp at RB... if Gurley didnt magically die at 24/25 he'd have him too (and he's still only 26)

Just don't even know what to say. This just seems terrible. I'm really glad I don't see many trades that are like this. Lopsided ones happen but these are the types that have no business happening.
Jonesin For Some Football

I like Akers much more than Sanders personally but this feels like an overpay to me. I know everyone is in love with Akers right now and it might work out but Sanders was thought of just as highly as Akers was this time last offseason. Not sure this works out but I do think Akers has a really good year.
Jonesin For Some Football

Curious which 2 people think are better than Barkley as that is odd with him being ranked in the top 3 or 4 (sometimes still as high as 2) in startup rankings? This feels light to me even though Hock's value is spiked in TE Premium. Feels like he could have got more but each league is different.

I think both teams improved their lineup substantially and this is a win-win for both. Rodgers retirement is the biggest concern. But with 1.03 and 1.04 I think that is mitigated. I'd rather walk away with Mahomes/Fields or Lance/Rodgers to pair with Metcalf and BPA at 1.04 than to have Mahomes/Murray/Rodgers and BPAx2. I certainly like Chase a lot but I'd rather have Metcalf and this way he has a really good chance at both. Pitts is just as much in play as he was before but after getting Metcalf it might empower him to take Pitts instead of Chase, if it falls like that. And the future 2nd is a nice little cherry that doesn't hurt.
Team B probably needed a QB, no? Can only be good for him, then.

I’d rather have Akers. But I don’t think much of Sanders. I know someone said this was a slight overpay but this time next year I think it’ll look like a home run for Akers side.
tombonneau
Footballguy
Very interesting deal and one I suspect each side came away thinking they got a bargain.
Really depends on who you get with the second.
Jonesin For Some Football
Footballguy
I think this is pretty fair. I think it is light for Murray but with his QBs and picks, there is nothing wrong with not maximizing value to get the player you want. Nothing wrong with this but I'd say Team B won slightly in value for SF.
Jonesin For Some Football
Footballguy
I agree with preferring Akers but depending where that 1st & 2nd end up, they get like #1-2 overall, and Akers has a sophomore season like Sanders just did then this will be a home run for the Sanders side. Especially if he bounces back. I don't see an issue with the trade but could end up being a slight overpay and I think the Akers love has gone a little too far personally. I know I may be in the minority.

I was looking at this exact trade. Now I have a frame of reference. I'm really hesitant without Big Ben in Pittsuburgh, though.
Jonesin For Some Football
Footballguy
I get the argument as Godwin hasn't signed a full contract, many other mouths to feed, and TB12 could hang it up in 2 years. I think it is pretty fair but I just feel Godwin has true top tier upside....I'm not sure I feel that way about Claypool.
rockaction
Footballguy
I think Claypool does have top tier upside, personally. He finished in the top twenty-four as a rookie. Very few guys finish that highly and don't repeat. Of course, his four touchdown day helped, but I think he brings unique things to the table. Anecdotally, what sold me on him was his catch against the Giants on the sidelines last year on one of the weeknight games. It really opened my eyes up and I began to watch him all over the field. He showed supreme field awareness and hands on the grab, and he was just a rookie. I'd love to see what Matt Harmon has to say about him, but I don't think I can cough up the thirty bucks to get another FF subscription.

eta* I think Godwin is a top-flight receiver, but there are so many mouths to feed in Tampa and then who knows where he'll go and if he'll still be in prime physical condition. I know his age, but the ages get younger for football, the windows smaller. He is also a candidate for a second franchise tag, which puts him right back with a crowded receiving room no matter if A. Brown ages out of it or not. Miller, Johnson, Darden, all those guys will compete for targets in the upcoming years.

I don't completely disagree and like his talent. I was talking like top 5 or so WR and Godwin has already done it. I just don't think Claypool ever gets quite that high but depends on who his QB is. I think you are right on in your thought process though. I think I would hold due to Big Ben though. Nobody can really be a top tier WR with Rudolph throwing them the ball. I don't have much more faith in Haskins either.
rockaction
Footballguy
Very true. And situations change and are fluid, as we both sort of note with Rudolph. Anyway, it's something I would think about but that particular GM in our league (the one who has Claypool) won't answer any trade requests, no matter how fair. I don't know what I did, but he obviously lets trades sit on the vine and never responds. So this is sort of a useless exercise, anyway. Bummer.

I hate people like that. All leagues have a couple. I'd rather someone just say "go F yourself" than ignore me.
Nice sell-high on Akers.
I wouldn't be surprised if this time next year Sanders and Akers are similar in value, plus a 1st and 2nd? Give me the 2.5 outs over Akers.
Light for Saquon. In a 10 teamer the blue chip studs are all the more valuable, no? Need as many as those as one can get.
"TE premium" is just propaganda for deals like this to be pulled off
I agree with @Jonesin For Some Football that you are taking on a bit of risk that Claypool has top flight WR in him. Godwin has already done it, is a 2nd on top worth the risk? I personally don't think so. I also think it's selling a bit low on Godwin and buying high on Claypool.

This seems fair enough to me. I'm not really high on the late 1sts this year but haven't heard great things about the 22 rookie class either. Swapping the 3rd for 2 2nds makes this worth it if you don't have your eye on anyone specifically.
