Different era and all players generally play a little longer, so add a year or 2. Green has had no substantial injuries to date either, unless you count the torn hamstring, which I don't call that major.
I had that same impression I believe when he left the Pats. It was either that or coaches didn't use him in the same way, and production dropped off a cliff.
Try this thought exercise: If Doctson had been in your free agent pool for your rookie draft, where would you have taken him? That spot tells you how much you value him. Personally, I'd have considered him somewhere in mid-second, after Miller but before Pettis.
Maybe a homer take, but the OL should be mostly fixed. Cordy Glenn is a proven talent at LT and first-round centers (Billy Price) have hit at a really high rate in recent years, so have to feel pretty good there. Considering all the offensive issues last season, Dalton actually played ok.
I don't think it was your wording that was surprising - I think the answer is pretty obvious no matter how you present the question.I worded it badly, but we know what I mean.
Reading posts about JuJu’s value, I realize that I might be overvaluing him a little. However, I would not trade him straight up for anyone in this draft other than Barkley. Coming out of his rookie year, he’s as close to can’t miss stud as we’ve seen in some time at WR and that’s where I’d currently value him. A young WR1.
He offered to swap 2019 3rds. I said I’d take a 2019 2nd (playoff team) and a 2019 3rd (top half) and he thought that was ridiculous. Guess he’s staying on my roster.
Robinson - most complete WR
Currently, the players I have had trouble selling are Ware and J. Hill. I tried to shop Ware to Hunt owner, but they don't think he will make the roster. Same owner owned Burkhead and he believed the same of J. Hill. The second one he might be right on due to the small contract and Patriots drafting Michel. I am highly surprised he thought Ware wouldn't even make the team.
Yeah if I owned those players, I would only maybe be offering a pick upgrade in the mid-later rounds. But its something for sure.
I'm happy to sit on both to see if they have a role. small chance, but like you said worth something. Eifert for your player hard to trade I actually traded for. He is from my hometown city and think I value him more than everyone else.
I don't know if I would go so far as to say I expect Ware to not make the team, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's cut either. Coming off an injury, no guaranteed money with a sizeable 1.5M base, last year of his contract. They signed Damien Williams, Kerwyn Williams, Darrel Williams and kicked the tires on Rawls and some others. I would expect that it is likely that one of West or Ware will be gone for the cap savings and it will probably come down to who is healthiest among all those guys. Once this situation settles, I might be interested in Ware then as a Hunt owner.
If Ware didn't make the team because he sucks, yes that would be bad.I don't think he sucks though, so him going to another team might actually be a positive for his outlook.
I think he should be worth a first to a contender weak at QB. But we play in a QB friendly league, depends on how a top 3 QB is valued in your league.
Like I said depends on the league. In ours he would go for first easy. But people go Lady Gaga for QBs.
If you can wait (or don’t get a reasonable offer now) , hold a Win Now player like Brady til week 4 or 5, and hopefully there’s a team in contention that needs a top QB to put them over the top. That’ll be selling for max value.
Only downside is if the best teams already are getting good QB play, then you risk getting nothing because there are only a couple buyers to begin with. In theory you are right but holding does not always work out in an established league. If the playoff teams are led by Wentz Cam Rodgers Brees maybe even a couple other guys who will be run-rating like Brady or close to it, they won’t be giving you more than a mid to late 2nd if that
I have Brady in only 1 league, which as you point out FFPC leagues do not value bench QBs, and that is exactly the plan to ride him until retirement. Find someone when I need to
That’s kind of my point, if that’s the best you get mid season, better off taking a late 2nd valuation/equal player now which I think is doable because you have more trade partners, some of which have false hopeMid to late 2nd for Brady sounds great. Offer accepted
Ah. Got it. Fair enough.
That's why I don't draft rookie QB's in 1 QB leagues. Too many guys are holding onto their Trubisky/Dak/Winston dreams and are making room for them by dumping guys like Brady, Rivers, and Big Ben for peanuts. I have plenty of peanuts for those guys, I would rather carry guys like RSJ or Keelan Cole and hope for the next Robby Anderson or Adam Thielen (who I can then trade for Brady +).
I did a startup an FFPC startup in 2013 and got Brady in the 12th round as my QB1 because of his age, just shows how lightly valued QB's are in that format. I still have him on that team and just plan to ride him out till the end. Got another FFPC league I dealt him for a second near trade deadline last year to contending team with some QB issues, pick ended up being 2.2 and that's more then I would have thought I could get for him but when the trade was made I just knew it was a second, could have been much later.
Yeah I picked up Rodgers in a deal last year and then at cut down time I only kept him as my one QB. Someone gave me grief about it and offered a couple QBs so that I would have a backup (so nice for him to be concerned). I declined and then drafted Eli in the 6th round. But yeah Ben, Dalton, a bunch of others were/are available on waivers. Some teams are holding 4 QBs. I don't get it.
