Not sure what you mean on the part I bolded
It seems like injuries just matter more when you're playing a 16 team league. Or picking a late round player who bursts on to the scene will impact your team more than a league with 10 teams. With a 16 team league, it also gives you a 'ride or die' mentality with your top guys instead of actually having decisions to make with matchups.

I do think there is a ton of skill in a 16 player draft, though, and a ton of skill when you're deciding on matchups and you have no good choices. Although you look at the power rankings of your draft that you've been showing and the guy with Saquon Barkley (edit - or was there a trade?) has a massive initial lead. I wouldn't want that to be a money league.

16 team league are for those who are really into drafting players that aren't front and center on ESPN and other similar sites. You got to enjoy digging deep on players. I do enjoy that. Making trades can be tough. Mostly it's a little different then the run of the mill 10 or 12 team leagues.

Got a team that seems to really want to move Delvin Cook, he's offering to add a first, he owns 2 first.

His team:

Considering sending this offer. IDK if I'm asking for too much or not enough. Trading a stud like Zeke is painful and Cook has injury issues.

Thoughts? Asking for too much? Not enough?

Sent the offer, rejected. Along with some other offers. No counter on any. Waste of time I guess. One of those that begs for offers but isn't serious about making a actual trade.

I actually thought you were making a more than fair offer.

Don't think I could do the second offer, actually like the players offered. It's just that rookie WRs take a while to develop.

I'd be pumped if my offer gets accepted. Not expecting it to.

Jesse countered with this.

Don't think I want to do that. Don't feel Diggs is much if any a upgrade on Golladay.

This got rejected saying he could only do Hill not Moore.

I'm about ready to go in another draft. A redraft this time, only a 10 team so a little lame, but whatever....

Going to reject his last offer, not that it's a bad one, just not enough to make me want to accept.

In a chat with Jesse. Thinking maybe we find common ground. He's obviously serious about doing a deal. My kind of guy, even if we don't do a deal.
