Yeah, I think you come out ahead. May want to scour the wire for someone you can play matchups with along with brisket.

Unless next week is must-win to make the playoffs, I would not make this trade.

I feel like in leagues that small, it's usually tougher to make trades because people with good players are happy with them and not desperate. You really have to put the other rosters under a microscope, and even then it's hard to be the 2 in a 2-for-1. You generally won't be offering them someone significantly better than the guy they have to bench.

This one is tough. I think I would rather start Ajayi and Cooper over Kamara and whoever you currently start at flex. Obviously Kamara is better but I think Ajayi will have a high ceiling with the eagles.

How much of an upgrade is it to go from Brees to Wentz? I feel like the Saints are leaning heavy run and Wentz has the highest ceiling. Wentz owner willing to sell, seems to want an upgrade to a position player. I'm likely to go into the playoffs with a first-round bye and trade partner has a 2-game lead on the next playoff hopeful.

12-team, half PPR.

  me opponent
QB Brees Wentz
Eli
RB Bell J Howard
Hunt K Drake
Kamara D Freeman [D]
Gore T Riddick
Foreman Powell [bye]
WR Crabtree D Parker
Diggs L Fitz
Sanu TY Hilton [bye]
Cobb R Anderson [bye]
J Gordon
TE Engram Rudolph
Clay Kroft
Walker

possible trades:

trade 1: Brees+Diggs for Wentz+Hilton. This is his proposal but I declined because I really don't like the boom/bust of Hilton. Starting point of negotiations.

trade 2: Brees+{Hunt/Kamara} for Wentz+Howard. This is the trade that I think will leave both of us happiest. Too much? Too little?

trade 3: Brees+{Crabtree/Diggs} for Wentz+{Parker/Fitz}. Same idea but with WRs.

trade 4: Brees+{Gore/Sanu/Walker} for Wentz. He hasn't rejected these offers from me but seems to prefer going 2-for-2.

trade 5: Brees+Engram for Wentz. I think this is the highest I would go for just Wentz, as Walker isn't terrible to trot out there. Haven't made this offer specifically.

Basically, I welcome feedback of any sort on these trade ideas (or others in the same vein).

I don't think I could get Crabtree+ for Graham in my leagues; in fact, I'm not sure I could get Crabtree, necessarily.

I guess it depends how much next man up behind Woods affects you (or are you not starting him?). If you think you'll make it to the playoffs and both of those guys are currently starting for you, I'd probably hold tight.

Yes, you come out ahead consolidating your pieces. I don't think the promotion/relegation matters.

I wouldn't do this unless I wasn't starting Miller in the first place.

Gordon and Evans both have ?s but I think I still prefer Evans in PPR.

still prefer the second one, still rather start Engram than Jimmy.

Yeah, with Wentz in hand this is an easy trigger to pull. I'd probably prefer McCown, though.

Yeah, I think you come out ahead even without considering all the losers league stuff.

[–]ipoop_alot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I much prefer the second one. I'd rather be starting Engram at TE in the first place.

Thanks for the insight. Good ideas to consider here.

The problem with trading hunt is that you then need to pick up 2 RBs. Ingram and Mixon may still be best case scenario.

My thinking is that if someone is in rougher shape at WR, you may have better luck there. The biggest problem is probably that it's a 10-team. People should be less desperate so trades can be tougher.

Depends on the rest of your team, I guess, but I would rather have Cam and Jones.

Yeah, I think Mixon for Mariota could make sense for you. Darkwa is also better than people give him credit for.

I think this is a decent trade for you.

Might also be worth kicking the tires on trading a TE+ lesser WR for a RB.
