Not even safe with the "studs".

Jamaal Charles, Lacy and Jeremy Hill were 3 of top 5 RBs off the board no more than 2 years ago.

Drafting Jeremy Hill in the 2nd round of a startup in 2015. Also in 2016 trading my late second for C-Mike, but needing to cut a player for space I cut Crowell...

In '13 I had 1.01, 1.08, 1.12 and 2.01...ended up with Tavon, C-Mike, Jonathan Franklin, and Wheaton.

Followed that up in '14 having 1.03 and 1.05 and ended up with Sankey and JMatt (Cooks/OBJ went 1.04 & 1.06)

Needless to say I'm still rebuilding...

Worst trade I can remember doing was in my Keep 7 league, 6pt td league from a few years ago.

I sent: A. Rodgers
Received: C. Kaepernick, M. Jones-Drew, K. Rudolph

Only good thing about this trade was after one week of having the new players, I sent all those pieces I received and traded them for Drew Brees. So it wasn't an overall awful deal, and now I have Luck in this league, but still it was probably my worst trade of all time.

I waived Arian Foster to clear space after they picked Ben Tate.

Yep, i'm pretty sure people were saying the same thing about Ingram and TRich when they were comparing them to Arian Foster and Ryan Mathews the year before that.

RBs are by far the riskiest position to invest in at the top. Been that way for a long time.

In my first year in a prior league (also first time doing dynasty), I got hit by the injury bug at WR during the season and chose to keep Robert Woods and drop Keenan Allen. Also drafted Stevan Ridley and Danny Amendola way too high, thinking Ridley would build on the success he had the prior year with the Pats and Amendola would be the next Wes Welker.

In 2012, I had a strong roster in one league and BADLY wanted Hakeem Nicks (who at the time was regarded as a top 5 dynasty WR). I had Julio, Dez, AJG with DGB/Marcus Lattimore also on the TS so the idea of another elite WR for my flex spot was tempting. It was a devy league, and I sent Sammy Watkins, Keenan Allen (both were still in college), and a mid 2013 1st for Hakeem Nicks. Nicks is now out of the league, and the 2013 1st turned into LeVeon Bell. So I sent LeVeon Bell, Sammy Watkins, and Keenan Allen for Hakeem Nicks. To compound, the owner gave me a choice between Montee Ball and LeVeon Bell in a trade the following off-season, and I chose Ball instead of Bell. Oops!

Then in 2013, I had a contender going into the playoffs but was down two RBs. Shane Vereen had just strung together PPR games of 22/14/14/17/33, so I sent a then injured rookie year Jordan Reed and an Alabama WR who just finished a down sophomore year. When the trade went through, a few owners were vocal about me trade raping the guy for Vereen who was garnering a lot of hype at the time. The deal was Shane Vereen for my Jordan Reed and Amari Cooper :lol:

They came out in different years?
Yea, in what world were they in the same draft? I was thinking it was a startup, but OBJ was already ranked as a/the top dynasty asset by then
My bad..
It was white instead of Cooper.
