A third straight year burning a #1 on a WR leaves you a bit depleted at the other positions. I still think they'll take an X. Reagor is just not up to snuff and I don't see them signing anybody of significance in free agency, but I'm just spitballing there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in the camp that says talented complimentary receivers make each other better, make an offense better, and really good offenses can support multiple fantasy options.

Some will sit around scared of drafting a JuJu or Ridley after a stud leaves and then be worried about investing in a WR due to possibility of the team adding another a WR. I do think rockaction is correct, the Eagles could use an X, I can't say I'm worried about it if they do, could be bad, could be good. What they do or don't do at QB is more key IMO. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would agree as well. IMO I also don’t see them holding on to all 3 picks in their current spots either. Obviously takes 2 to Tango, but they seem prime candidates for packaging 2 of those into a move up for an impact stud player and/or moving down out of one of the picks to accumulate some 2023 draft capital.

We know the history of Achilles' tendon tears, but we aren't privy to any medical advances or refined surgeries. We also don't know the extent of Akers's injury because the Rams always lie. Always. Anyway, everybody here knew of the problem returning from Achilles tendon tears. It was debated hotly in three different threads. I know you're new so you missed it, but we already hashed it out in great detail. Akers looks back and healed and ready to go to some of us.

Agreed...the x-factor in all this is with three first round picks the Eagles are in a prime position to draft a legit prospect while also addressing other needs...the downside of that is their will be QB controversy headaches happening as soon as that pick gets made and that can take on a life of its own, especially in a media market like Philly.

It makes ZERO sense to make a move like that now. I agree. I could understand making the move with the hope that the 2nd round picks end up higher than expected. But, both trades were made after our league playoffs were done and the 2022 rookie draft order was set. The first time the owner traded the picks for a 2023 1st I was shocked. Then when he reacquired the picks and moved them for another 2023 1st, I was speechless. In another 12 team non-PPR dynasty, I was offered the 2022 3.04 pick for my 2023 2nd round pick. So, others are trying the same move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a 3rd in 2022 usually equates to a 2nd in 2023. At least that is a typical rule of thumb for value purposes for most people. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that. But in my experience these types of trades occur when somebody is trying to sweeten the deal to acquire a roster player. Or when somebody is trying to acquire a draft pick during a rookie draft because one of their player targets is still available. I didn’t expect to see this trade offer so soon after the end of the dynasty season and with the 2022 draft class being so widely panned as weak and shallow.

Not like the ones where people give away studs for peanuts but one’s that makes zero logical sense. Even in SF, late 2nds are low hit rates and often 3rd or 4th tier break level prospects in most years. The 2022 QB class is one of the weakest in years making those picks worth much less than normal too. Every once in a while people post example trades in here of a future 1st for like the 2.03 because there is a prospect still on the board they love, but as you said makes zero sense to do that months before the draft and for 2nd’s so late in the round.

That is not a rule I subscribe to in fantasy...IMO unlike real football in fantasy football there is a much bigger difference between a second and a third-round pick...a third in Dynasty is a much bigger dart thru than a second and a #1 will always have a lot more value than a #2 if it is in consecutive years...as stated above the big exception is if you are on the clock and a player you really covet is unexpectedly available.

Typically these kind of things happen when there is a player someone covets in the current year that is still available. The minus one rule is an easy rule of thumb but every situation is different. What started this is an odd situation that it is happening kind of out of the blue. My guess is the guy getting the 23 pick is buying into the narrative that 23 is going to be a much better draft than 22 and the guy getting the 22 picks is more of a bird in the hand kind of guy. I don't necessarily think it's a bad trade on the surface just kind of an odd timing for a trade like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Meyers is an underrated target, probably looking at Mac Jones top or 2nd choice target for the next four plus years, Penny could of course bust but the payoff/ceiling could be really great if he can stay fit now, and Hurts will at least be a reasonable fill in QB for the points he gets with his legs, whilst he still starts games.

Thanks and I actually have team with Watson and Kyler and gave some thought a few weeks ago to which one I put a higher value on. I have Kyler over Dak and closer to Watson but still think Watson is a better fantasy(and real life) QB then Kyler but the unknown and likely missed games from Watson would likely be enough to sway me to preferring Kyler. That's a close call to me but for sure the market does not agree, Kyler I assume would be considered far more valuable. If I knew Watson was going to play week one or say week 4 I'd prefer him. Right now I'm ballparking him miss 6-8 games and realize that could be worse, not likely to be a lot better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
