Trade value question.

I'm relatively stacked at RB with Kamara, Melvin, Devonta Freeman, Carson, Aaron Jones and Hines (who I might drop).

I'm looking to try and package Lockett + one of Freeman/Carson/Jones for a WR upgrade.

My league suuuuuucks at trading, but who's a realistic target? I'm aiming for Keenan Allen. Too ambitious?

Probably a little ambitious, but more power to you if you can swing it.

There's a guy in my league treating Lockett like a WR1, so there's people out there that will look at his TD rate and jump all over him.

So I swapped Lamar Miller and Nelson Agholor for Tyler Boyd and Geronimo Allison.

I really (REALLY) needed WR help in one of my leagues and am extremely deep at RB (by sheer numbers anyways). With AB and Jordy Nelson on bye this week I kinda had to pull the trigger on something to fill out a valid lineup.

Before

QB: Jameis Winston
WR: Antonio Brown, Jordy Nelson, Nelson Agholor
RB: Christian McCaffrey, Mark Ingram, Alex Collins, Corey Clement, Aaron Jones, Kerryon Johnson, Lamar Miller
TE: George Kittle, Cameron Brate

After

QB: Jameis Winston
WR: Antonio Brown, Tyler Boyd, Jordy Nelson, Geronimo Allison
RB: Christian McCaffrey, Mark Ingram, Alex Collins, Corey Clement, Aaron Jones, Kerryon Johnson
TE: George Kittle, Cameron Brate

Obviously it's gonna depend on Boyd keeping up his current level of play, but considering I had my hands tied I like what I ended up with. I'm still looking to move another RB for a WR though, as I'm not 100% sold on Jordy or Geronimo moving forward.

I love it. Boyd has a beauty schedule coming up.

Alshon

Alshon Jeffery + Titans D for John Brown + Chicago

Easily the Alshon side

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

Conner and Woods for McCaffrey.

Yay or nay?

Edit: 1pt ppr

Who would you add with the open spot?

 

[Bobby Orrtuzzo]

Who would you add with the open spot?

I’ve already got a claim in for Winston, and Crabtree, Gabriel, and Goodwin are the only decent options available. Ain’t squat at RB available

 

[rangerssharks414]

I'd take the McCaffrey side, but I think it's pretty close.

 

[OilerPensfan97]

I am being offered AJ Green for Sony Michel. Would you make this trade?

My roster:

 

[m9]

I would probably keep Michel, but it's fair.

That's a great swap, man.

Given the rest of your roster and your depth at RB this wouldn't be a bad move. It's a fair trade overall, not really something that I would jump right on or something I would avoid. It's kind of a toss-up.

 

[m9]

Kind of an aside, but my go-to whenever I think a trade is fair is you go to your matchup with the trade partner (if you haven't played yet) and see if any of the players involved have byes. It's a huge advantage or disadvantage for those weeks, and most people in the league don't even look at it.

I think you're right about that. I took the deal. Michel is pretty much a guaranteed RB2 minimum the rest of the way, but I'm not loving his matchups ROS. Likewise, Green has some juicy ones coming up. The bye could be a bit of a concern (mainly week 9), but think I can swing it with another pickup or trade.

Yes, that's a great way to evaluate trades. I've actually done this in the past, offering a trade knowing that the good player I'm giving up won't be playing against me. It's a solid tactic, and like you said, something that many people don't look at.

 

[rangerssharks414]

The Bengals have a pretty soft schedule off the top of my head, so I would have taken it as well.

 

[Scotianhab]

A guy in my league wants Winston. He has Coleman, Brieda, & J White as RB he might consider trading. Who is the best one to ask for?

I highly doubt that you'd get one of those guys for Winston. QBs are streamable.

I think it's probably White in PPR or Coleman in standard. Either are fine for Winston, as long as you have another QB.

 

[Evincar]

I am being offered AJ Green for Sony Michel. Would you make this trade?

I wouldnt because youre pretty strong at WR and your team is much better with Michel as your #2 RB.

 

[Beauner]

Got offered Amari Cooper for Funchess... while Cooper may have the higher ceiling, Funchess has the higher floor. Since either guy will be a flex play, I should go for the guy with the higher floor (Funchess) right?

Plus there's rumors of Cooper being traded. And he's hurt. This just seems like a bad time for a Cooper trade

 

[Zorf]

I play in a 1-player keeper league. Kamara has been my keeper.

Guy with a 1-5 team wants to make a splash for a keeper RB and he's offering me Antonio Brown + Ingram for Kamara.

I'm 5-1 and in 1st place.

My roster:

Cam

Kamara, Melvin, Carson, A Jones, Hines

Diggs, Golladay, Lockett, Kirk

Gronk


I could make Melvin my keeper for next year.


Edit: where the player was drafted the year before is the pick you lose in the next draft. Melvin = 1st. Kamara being a 2nd year keeper would also = 1st round pick.

So either way, I'm losing a 1st next year
