Looking at the roster of the guy who drafted Lance, I would have stayed at 1.06. He has given up his 1st and 2nd picks in the next two drafts and his RBs and WRs need a lot of work. Lance isn't the magic answer to him having a competitive team.
Diggs, I guess depending on who 1.11 was (Is it feasible somebody really worth it was there? Sermon is the only one I can think of with the rookie fever and the cachet...). It's not SF, so assuming 1.11 will be late again, then it's pretty easy Diggs here. 1.11 must be thinking "championship" as he hits accept on this deal.
I do think Lance is going to be really good in that offense but I agree that this seems like a big overpay to move up 3 spots in SF.
Good example of a terrible trade before the draft and the Etienne shenanigans but this is a good move after the draft. I'd make this move especially if I felt my 22 1st would be late.
Seems equitable. I'd have Ruggs right around player 19-20 area if he was in the rookie draft.
I'll take the Bateman side. I'm a believer despite the landing spot, but even so, 3 1st's for Swift (the 2nd being loose change) seems like an overpay. If either of those end up on the high or mid side, it's a definite win for the team getting Bateman.
Interesting deal. Think I'd take the future 1st and the solid asset at 14. I'm a sucker for future 1st and what you can get for them prior to the draft or OTC.
Established assets that for one reason or another have diminished in the eyes of the community, like Josh Jacobs this season.
Naw. I'm teasing. But there comes a time to make a pick. I've got a top three this year, so I kid, but I don't have Pitts there, so I can easily see a tier break at four, too.
I agree that's steep for Swift. He basically has to perform like a top 3 back at that price tag.
Startup draft, not rookie draft.
Yeah it's true. I don't usually post the startup trades I'm involved in or that I see unless they're particularly interesting, which they usually aren't. But you're right they're not in here often enough and they do have value to document and see what people are doing. Maybe I'll go back and snapshot a few that went down this offseason.ghostguy123 said:
Comparing startup draft deals and existing league deals can be a useful tool to help steal some value during the startup.
The 1st one is a terrible trade for the J-Will/Herndon side. Reagor or Higbee shouldn't be included or there should be a pick on the other side to even it out.
Looks like a push to me; of course, depending on whether one side was rebuilding or not, I could see it from either side. I really like Gallup's chances starting in 2022.
If you're contending the next 2-3 years, this is a big win imo. Already the NFL's best receiving RB, now tied to Herbert with a reasonable contract through 2023, under the OC who made Kamara, an improved OL, no competition to speak off... the list goes on. I think he finishes top 5 this year barring injury. Lot of 2021 champ teams will have Ekeler rostered.
Claypool and the #2...Claypool showed a lot last year and while the QB situation maybe dicey with Ben nearing the end he has some freakish qualities that I believe in...Bateman is a quality prospect but I question how high the ceiling is with Baltimore and even if he was somewhere a little more WR friendly I would rather have Claypool...don't understand the other part...Mitchell is intriguing but a lot needs to go right for him to be fantasy relevant so I would rather have the #2.
Seems relatively fair for SF, I think in a vacuum though I'm rolling with the Kamara side.
I'll go with Claypool and the second, but have you seen Ben throwing in practice? Awful. This might be a QB and system-dependent trade. I still like the Claypool side by quite a bit.
I'm trying to see that side of it, but it seems even to me. Depends how you feel about Zeke the next two years, because that's what it's going to hinge upon. Big time trade, regardless.
I’m as big a fan of Jefferson as there is, so to me this feels like Zeke and Jones for free.
Hope the future turns out wellghostguy123 said:
