What is a fair offer for the #1 overall pick in a Rookie only draft?

I would be getting back way more value than I gave up to get him. I am a little hesitant, though, since I would be back to where I started, essentially, only with 3 more 1st round picks than I had before.
How can any amount of first round picks be more valuable than one of the best young RBs? I'm missing something.

I'm not convinced that he can hold up and be effective for a long period of time in this league. And if I am getting the type of haul that dude is talking about, I think it is worth it to pull the trigger on a deal.

What RB can?

In dynasty, him, Barkley, Kamara are gems. Even zeke already has 3 big usage years behind him. Gurley is breaking down after 4.

So, after a little back and forth, he offered Julio, CJ Anderson (cuff for Kerryon) and 4 1st round picks for McCaffrey and Sterling Shepard. I think I am going to take it.

Think I would as well, that's a heck of a haul.

i am late to the game here... this is dynasty, PPR??

Who is the best available player you would expect with the first pick he gives you??

and what do you start??

i don't think i would do it, but with some answers i could change my mind....

Is that just 4 years of late rookie draft picks?

Don't worry about cuffing the Lions backfield. That O stinks.

I went ahead and took the deal.

Milk, it is a full dynasty (12 teams), PPR, and we start 2 RBs, 3 WRs, and 1 flex.

Eagles, the team I traded with was barely in the playoffs last year and really isn't impressive overall, imo. I think most of those picks will be top 5. That will be my 3rd 1st round pick next year and I also have an extra 2nd. I should be able to be a big time buyer at the trade deadline this year, as I expect to be in the hunt. If things go south, I have a lot of draft capital to rebuild.

Can't imagine trading away a top 5, 100 catch RB in PPR, but be sure to update us on who these picks turn into so we can mock/praise you.:D

I traded away Barkley last year.

Missed the playoffs by a hair (lost the tie breaker)
Late 2019 pick


so it backfired for last year at least...

Not only did you get the WORSE player for last year, you didn't get a good pick out of it...

So now, you need guise to become a stud to make it worthwhile...

I got Mixon also, think I did fine. I started off badly but made a good run. Lost the tie breaker to make the playoffs. Also remember I get a first next season also out of the deal.

Will do. Like I said, I will probably be looking to unload some of those picks at the trade deadline for immediate help during my (hopefully) playoff push.

But, if we are keeping tabs, so far I traded DeAndre Hopkins, Antonio Callaway and my first last year (turned into Kyler Murray) for Julio, CJ and 4 1st round picks. I would say I am up so far.
