****OFFICIAL Trade Thread****
 

I'll start it off:

I'm looking for a better TE option (I drafted Coby Fleener and picked up Jared Cook off the scrap heap) and a guy in my league (Packers fan) floated Roddy White and Zach Ertz for Randall Cobb. Seems like a pretty good deal? White and Cobb are both technically WR2s but Cobb benefits from a better QB and better overall team. Is it worth pulling the trigger or am I just overthinking Week 1?

Took the deal and already regretting it, but I can't really judge it until White and Ertz play. Still felt like too good of a value to pass up.

So, should I trade demaryius Thomas and zac Stacy for Calvin Johnson?

Hmmmmm man, I gotta say yes. Sure, Thomas has Peyton, but CJ is a juggernaut.

I'd probably pull the trigger there and hope Stacy doesn't do anything.

No way. Thomas outscored Johnson last year and that was with Decker taking away a ton of TDs. Stacy doesn't seem great but he has some value.

I'm thin at WR and I'm pretty deep at RB. I have Murray, Morris, Spiller, and Moreno. I have an offer of Maclin for Moreno. Do I take it?

I couldn't do it, I countered Stacy and Keenan Allen for Megatron.

I would do this all day

not a chance. A productive player for a non-productive player is never a good idea.

Hard to say because I don't know what the point system is in your league and I also don't know who else you have at WR or RB.

If you do this, be on top of that waiver wire...considering the frag-vag's of Murray and Spiller...you're going to want to handcuff them, if possible.

Trade offer made to me, neither players are starters, but vereen will start many weeks over foster or spiller. Don't feel fond of either bush or Jackson, but concede he has the potential to be an upgrade.

Opinions? Traditional scoring no flex start 2 RBs and 2WRs

Give me Bell and VJax.

Bush always gets banged up and Bell is a stud who can carry the load, like he did a bit last year.

PPR?

Either way, maybe wait to see if Knowshon is for real and then sell high.

I took it, starting VJ vs the Rams over Colston this week, see how it plays out.

In light of Adrian Peterson being deactivated, what do you think is good trade value for him considering that he will miss this week and possibly more? I have offered Crabtree and Joique Bell. Is that too much? It wouldn't surprise me to see him suspended for the year after the whole Ray Rice fiasco. But if not I would be sitting on Jamaal, Arian, Gio Bernard and AP. If he is suspended I lose a couple decent players. Worth the risk??

I'm about to be 2-0 but I'm real concerned about my WRs. I've got Vincent Jackson, Roddy White, Wes Welker, Tavon Austin, and Steve Smith. There's a dude in my league who has Calvin Johnson AND Brandon Marshall... should I try and dangle Marshawn Lynch or Arian Foster for CJ (+maybe a depth player?)

Keep in mind this league is PPR.

What value does 6 games of Josh Gordon have in the trade market? What good player could you get
Mid tier wr or rb ?

GIVE

Arian Foster, Eric Decker

GET

Chris Johnson
Allen Hurns
Cutler
Titans DST

I wouldn't. Chris Johnson is now in a timeshare with Shonne F'n Greene, Allen Hurns is about to go back to the bench with Shortie Smalls coming back. Don't care about defenses. You are basically trading Arian Foster for Cutler.

No way.

What do you think about trading Asiata for Welker, to the AP owner of course.

team and rules follow:

14 team league, where you can start 2 QB's, since we have a OP flex position. Also, we are a half PPR and return yards count, which makes the WR depth on the waiver wire pretty decent actually.

QB - Andy Dalton, Alex Smith (don't call me a homer, he was the best left), Geno Smith
WR - Antonio Brown (return yards!), Cordarrelle Patterson (return yards!)
HB - Jamaal Charles, Kniles Davis, Donald Brown, Pierre Thomas, Terrence West, Matt Asiata, Jeremy Hill
TE - Jordan Reed
Def - Cincinnati
K - Cody Parkey

Actually Chris Ivory...who is a better back and more likely to get goalline looks

If they'll really take that deal, then absolutely yes.

I would definitely do that... I bet Asiata will lose his job to McKinnon, considering AP remains deactivated.

I wouldn't do it... even without AP, you are looking very good at RB... No need to do it, IMO... Keep ahold of Crabtree.

I actually withdrew the trade. Then today traded Bernard Pierce for AP. I have Gio, Jamaal (with Kniles Davis to handcuff), Arian Foster, Terrance West and Joique Bell and AP. Now I was never gonna play Pierce anyways. And more than likely will end up cutting AP. But if something happens and he does a plea agreement on Oct 7 then its possible I could have the greatest fantasy RB squad going into the playoffs. With hopes to trade 1 to boost my TE or WR spot as these are my weakest areas (Zach Ertz, Kelvin Benjamin, TY Hilton, Sammy Watkins, and Crabtree). To me that was a good move as I was probably gonna cut Piercefor backup kicker, TE, or Def.

I already have Arian Foster and Marshawn Lynch, but I noticed a guy only had RGIII at QB so I tried to see what he might want for Kaep. He came at me with this

He gets: Kaep + Steve Smith
I get: Montee Ball

(He also has DeMarco Murray, Matt Forte, Mike Wallace, and Pierre Garcon)

It's PPR but I feel like having three RB1s could really pay off?

Do it. And quick before the changes his mind.

Yeah, he balked a bit.. I considered overpaying, and then got an offer for Asiata for Steve Smith, Sr. With the emergence of Sanders and the number of weapons that Manning has, I'm think Smith may end up having the better year anyway. Smith gives me a decent bye week fill in for my wide receivers.. I had no backup for that position before. Smith is currently the #12 ranked WR in my league (.5 ppr) and has been very consistent so far. I think losing Pitta will boost Smith's role as well.

Yes, this.. Do it with a quickness if you have depth at WR and a decent Qb already.

Am I an idiot to trade McCoy?

Most likely.. yes.

More than likely yes.

Gave Eli, Bowe, Forsett
Got Jeffery and Dalton

You raped.

Why though, McCoy has done nothing this season. If I can get like Giovanni and Antonio Brown that's a good trade

Thank You for the feedback. I thought I easily won it as well, though one owner in the league thinks I GOT raped.
He had Dalton and P. Manning at QB and anything available for QBs is yuck....Had I been him, I would have just ate week four.

Not going to happen unless the guy is an idiot. I can almost guarantee you that you won't like the offers you get for him.

I don't think you can get those two for McCoy. Sproles is getting too many looks.

Was offered an interesting proposal today:

They offered: Doug Martin

For: Torrey Smith

Torrey Smith has done nothing, but piss me off all year.

And Doug Martin has been absent this year, but I do have Rainey (his handcuff).

Should I?

What's the rest of your team look like?

I'd obviously have to figure something out at WR...I'd be down there if I accepted this trade. I already am down at WR.

QB
RB
RB
WR
WR
WR
TE
WR/RB
K
DEF/ST
IDP (DB)
IDP (DL)
IDP (LB)

My team:

QB: Phillip Rivers and Blake Bortles.

RB: Le'Veon Bell, Ellington, Rainey, Mark Ingram, McFadden, Taliaferro

WR: Percy Harvin, Torrey Smith, Reggie Wayne, Michael Crabtree, Jordan Matthews

TE: Jimmy Graham

Def/ST: San Fransisco

K: Mason Crosby

IDP (DB): Antoine Cason

IDP (LB): Paul Worrilow

IDP (DL): Fletcher Cox

2 questions.

1. What are the top 10 WRs available on the waiver wire?
2. Is he trading for Smith because he's short at WR as well? I'd look about seeing if you could include McFadden and getting a WR back from him (depending on what he has).

Top 10 on wire (based on % owned): Randle, Hurns, Sanu, Floyd, Hester, Amendola, M.Jones, Dobson, J. Brown, Miles Austin, Kerley.


Dude has Garcon, Maclin, Watkins, Sanders, H. Douglas and Andrew Hawkins.

I don't know why he is wanting Torrey Smith from me when he could find someone better on the wire...unless he is just that disgruntled about Martin, yet doesn't want to drop him. His RB's really suck. Guy has a real shitty team.

See if you can get Watkins from him.

I'd like that ...especially with the way Watkins has flashed.

Considering offering R Jennings and B Cooks for Lacy and Kelce in a ppr league.

I was high on Lacy preseason but am not as bullish on him now. Regardless of him facing tough run defenses to start the season he just hasn't looked like the same back IMO as last year and seems slower hitting the hole. I have a solid team right now outside of the TE position and don't really want to give up Cooks which makes me think the think the trade isn't isn't that ridiculous but expect it not to go through. A fair trade/compromise is when no one is happy right? What would you be offering for either Kelce or Bennett? (Having Forte and his hot start driving his value up) decreases my interest in Bennett.

Current roster:
Cousins, Romo
Forte, Bell, Jennings, Vereen, K Davis
Des, Garçon, Cruz, Cooks, Tate, J Gordon
Pitta, ASJ

Next option:
Jennings for Donnell and Ellington

Thoughts?

Edit: Jennings seems like a sell high guy but the foot situation with Ellington gives me pause.

I don't know why you want to trade him right now? Just stick with him... Lacy doesn't look any better than him.

Stick with Jennings! He got a light load this Thursday since they worked him to death the week before. With that offense clicking, things are going to open up even more for Jennings.

Trying to sell high on Lamar Miller (if possible). What would you offer?

My team:

QB: Rivers, Kaepernick
RB: Lacy, Stacy, Miller, K. Robinson, M. Ingram and K. Davis
WR: Jeffrey, Michael Floyd, G. Tate, T. Smith, J. Hunter
TE: Julius Thomas


His team:

QB: Stafford, E. Manning
RB: Gerhart, J. Bell, J. Hill, Rainey, A. Blue
WR: D. Thomas, D. Bryant, B. Cooks, S. Watkins, B. Hartline
TE: Graham, J. Cook

Might have a deal in place.

I give up: Kaepernick, Lamar Miller and Torrey Smith

I get: Alfred Morris and Percy Harvin

Thoughts?

Not sure why he would accept that. Miller has been good in the feature role but Moreno coming back will put him back on the bench. TSmith has been garbage this year, and QBs are a dime a dozen.

1. He's currently rocking Geno Smith as his starting QB. He had RG3 and completely shit the bed not picking up Cousins.

2. He has Moreno on his team....so he'd at least have the handcuff either way.

3. Did I mention Geno Smith?

Deal was approved.

Went out and picked up McKinnon off the waiver wire. Pretty sure this is the first time in my FF career that I'm ****ing carrying 7 RBs on my roster right now.

Eddie Lacy, Zac Stacy, Mark Ingram, Alfred Morris, Khiry Robinson, Knile Davis and Jerrick McKinnon.

One more week and Robinson will get dropped because Ingram should be healthy.

Dynasty trade today.

My current QBs - Rivers, Ryan, Bridgewater.

Traded Ryan / Travis Benjamin to a guy who has Palmer/Brady for Brandon Marshall.

We start 3 WRs - A. Brown, Marshall and Tate/Djax is a pretty good group.

How do you guys rate Emmanuel Sanders? I'm trying to get the guy to bite on Asiata for him. Asiata has been a nice pickup but I don't see this lasting all season and I see Sanders being a lot more consistent.

Roster now:
Kap/Alex Smith
Bell/Gore/Bush/Asiata
Brown/Julio/Tate
Cameron/Gates

What are your thoughts? Keep pushing or stay as is?

I'm high on Sanders, coming into the season I thought he would put up similar numbers to Decker last year and he is on pace to beat that. Solid WR2 IMHO.

Asiata is rumored to end up behind McKinnon. If he bites, I'd take it for sure.

I don't see anyway that someone would give up Sanders for just Asiata.

So, I'm painfully 1-3.

I've been offered Bradshaw, Vereen and Harvin for Sankey, Bowe and Jeffery.

My roster:

Foles, Bridgewater
FJax, D. Brown, Sankey, Crowell
Jeffrey, Allen, Patterson, D. Bowe, Vernon Davis, Wheaton

Leaning towards accepting.

I took AP - hence my not so great team.

Would anyone trade gronk and McCoy for Megatron?

I personally wouldn't.. I see shady bouncing back.

I've been offered Julius and Giovanni for my Julio, Gore, and Gates..the only problem with that is outside of Antonio Brown I have shit for receivers.. Tate and Bowe. I also have Jordan Cameron, but he has been non existent and I see Julius as the#2 fantasy tight end. Shoild I take it?

I think Cameron will come around

Ended up trading Jeffery/Sankey for Lacy about 30 minutes before kick off. Very niiiice.

megatron trade, thoughts?

What do you think about Kelvin Benjamin and Doug Martin for Brandon Marshall?

**** that.

GIVE Jimmy Graham
GET Ertz, Jerick McKinnon

12 team PPR 1-player keeper league with long play bonuses.

Would you trade Keenan Allen for Antonio Gates?

I'm 2-4. And right now Rivers is targeting AG more than KA.

We don't have to start TEs, fwiw.

Stick with Gronk and McCoy. Megatron could sit till week 10 and Gronk looks to be coming around. I'm a McCoy owner and although he has pissed me off so far I think the TD's will start to come for him.

Give up Jimmy Graham and Rueben Randle for Sammy Watkins Cecil Shorts and Vernon Davis in a 12 team PPR with big play bonuses

I need wr help. I have Julio Jones, Dem. Thomas, Rueben Randle and Josh Gordon . We have 4 potential wr spots to start we/rb and wr/te who I play kelce or Cameron with Gronk as my TE slot. Should I offer Jones for Keenan Allen and Michael Floyd? This guy is in 1st and deep at WR. I'm in 2nd place I'd hate to trade Jones but he's my only trade chip for a bigger haul

Rookie keepers only cost you the last pick in the draft so they're essentially free. So that's nice.

I've got Bishop Sankey but need to cut him loose due to an impending week 9 bye week shit storm. That and I've always been partial to Tre Mason.

So. I've got one guy who has a raging hard on for Sankey. He's offering me Branden Oliver. I'm waiting to hear back on Tre Mason.

Oliver is the clear starter right now and Mathews has been a chronic disappointment. But does that mean Mathews will be second fiddle when he returns? If Oliver takes the top spot now it makes sense he would have it going into next season. Keeper implications.

Mason is the second fiddle but seems to be picking up more of the load as the season has gone on. Will Mason continue to get more totes each week and will Mason be the starter next season? Keeper implications right there.

Pile on folks. Pile. On

Mason I feel is more keeper worthy and will start next year. Oliver has looked good though

GIVE Golden Tate
GET Brandshaw

Trade partner is stacked at RB (Murray, Lynch, Tate, Hillman, McKinnon). I have WRs to spare (D. Thomas, Wallace, V-Jax, Decker, Sanu) and decent waiver options (Crabs, Torrey Smith, Cooks).

Thoughts?

GIVE Rueben Randle and Jimmy Graham
GET Owen Daniels, Denard Robinson and DeAndre Hopkins

Aj green for Ellington? I'm stacked at wr but rb sucks for me.

I was offered Rodgers and Donnell for Romo and Julius.

Other starters are Foster, Lacy, AJ Green, Sanders.

Not sure the difference between Rodgers and Romo is big enough to downgrade from Julius to Donnell - though Donnell has the best remaining schedule of any TE by far.

Would have RGIII or Roethlisberger to cover this weeks' bye.

I'm Hodor. Should I make this trade?

Need to make sure benard is ok, he might miss some time
