Just got this trade offer, what do you think?

[HaroldSeattle]

To the cleaners!

I would think Henry and one of your WR can land you a solid WR upgrade.

That's what I'm aiming for. But Milk is right most teams are not in need of a RB.

Yet.....

 

[TKOSpikes]

And no rush... Baldwin, Kupp, Hogan and Sanders (and WW matchups) can certainly hold the fort.

 

[MilkSpiller22]

Yet.....

not even... if you only have to start 2, and it is PPR, you don't mind streaming one or playing matchups for one of the spots... If you have to do that for both spots, then they might trade, but they wont give up a top WR for a Back who doesn't really catch balls...

Basically, I think you would be better off trading Zeke to someone else, and getting something more for him...

150 yards and two TD week one in Miami, will catch someone's attention.

Milk, we start 2 RBs, 3 WRs and a flex. This team that offered that putrid (for them) deal will be trotting out Carson, Rex, and Kerryon as their only RBs after this trade. Their 3rd WR will be Crowder or his newly acquired Marvin Jones. His flex will be the other or one of his RBs or Nelson Agholor. This trade makes absolutely no sense for the other team.

Again, not mad at you at all, Harold. Just perplexed on why he was so quick to turn me down and shoot you that offer. My guess is they are very new to FF and is putting way too much value on the QB position. And had I known that, I would have included a QB in my offer, which may not have made a difference anyway.

No doubt it was an awful trade for the other owner, and a great one for Harold... Just saying that being too deep in such a shallow league doesn't make it easier to trade for a WR, unless he is willing to trade one of his top backs, and "settle" with having Henry remain on the roster...


Really, for Henry, I wouldn't expect more than a Marvin Jones type player back...

 

[tlance]

Yeah... looking at their roster again, I don't know what would possess them to make that deal. The evaluator hates it for them and it leaves them with only Carson, Kerryon and Burkhead at RB. They basically gift wrapped you Zeke. I can't complain too much, but what I offered helped their team out a lot, while this trade pretty much locked them up for last place by a mile, imo.

There are a couple who don't know what they are doing at all.

I got offered Desean Watson straight up for McCaffery.

Cmon man. Auction values alone should tell the offerer that is a no go. CMAC was the first player I landed for $36 and I would have paid $45-50 for him. Watson was $8, and I would not have paid that much in an 8 team league.

Not even going to waste time countering an offer like that.

I’d be curious to know what you offered. That’s up to you though. I know some offers I’ve received in leagues didn’t appeal to me at all ( and vs versus)but the owner who made it thought it was a slam dunk, no brainer Every player appeals differently to different owners, a player or even players ,you feel is valuable might just be a player that owner feels is over rated and doesn’t care for.

You got three players I’m sure you most likely value way more then I do. Cooper, Ingram and Cook, I’m guessing at least one or more of these player were included in your trade offer. Course I’m probably wrong.

 

[eaglesnut]

Just my opinion mind you but the guy has not even tapped into his full potential yet. And even though he led the league in fantasy points last year with a bad line I see him putting up nutty numbers. I think the wr core is better than what people think and there defence is gonna be very bad. They won't be able to rush except for Wilson himself when he breaks out of the pocket. I think he will win many people championships this year

I sent you a PM.

Skimming thru the comments....

Was in a league that drafted a QB first every year. He was no dummy but i tried telling him that good RB are fewer and thus more valuable.

He looked at me like I was crazy. His entire argument was that QB have the most fantasy points so (to him), they are most valuable. He never backed down.

Believe it or not, his teams did pretty good, which is probably another reason he never changed his point of view.

 

[wildturkey]

You really had to ask about this trade? You do that in a fucking heart beat. You're straight up robbing Zeke for almost nothing. Plus, its not out of the question that Mahomes does pretty well this year. Andy Reid QBs tend to at least be playable fantasy wise and Mahomes also has the ability to pick up some yards rushing. I don't even care what your WRs are because with the other RBs you have, you can trade one of them for better WRs and still have stacked RBs.

LOL, this deal is so lopsided I think I would actually veto it if I were in this league and I'm almost always opposed to other owners vetoing trades between two other people.

I am not going to veto, but I agree.

happens up here all the time in my work league

after years of trying to help them understand (fair play and all) i gave up

i think i have finished first 8 years out of 10 of course i still wimp out at playoff time only one Championship

anyhow year after year they draft the so called highest scoring players Qbs while i load up on 3 or 4 hi ceiling rbs in rounds 3 or 4 through 8

even last year i lost Dj and Robinson and my 4th pick whom i have forgot yet still made the playoffs

some of them even have 2 qbs before i draft mine.....

Spoiler: Horn Toot

sorry about the fat head but really just trying to emphasize what Joe said ever more eloquently

depends on the QB season and QB points... its been popular for QBs to score 6 points per passing TD for a while, but don't forget it used to be 4 points as standard... and 25 yards per point...

When Michael Vick was good, he was a number one pick because he ran so much... and got Rushing TDs...
