Buying the ship

Postby Alibaba » Thu May 18, 2017 5:00 pm

Have some sell highs I think trying to get David Johnson & Melvin Gordon from same owner to secure my Title run What combo of Juilo Jones, Gronk, Gurley, Watkins, Kwon Alexander top idp in our setting 18'1st would be a smart but definitely good offer to make? & leave me with enough of a team to get 3 in a row

Not sure anyone can afford to lose both DJ and MG. There's just not enough guys like them out there, so you'll have to overpay big time.

Now if this GM is actually willing to part with one (which isn't a given), DJ will cost metric tons, while MG will cost tons. Gronk and Jones probably aren't enough for either, but it might fetch MG.

On top of the ridiculous cost, not getting an RB back in the trade makes it even harder to swing - unless you include a high draft pick too.

If i offered every bit of that do you think it would get him thinking he also has J.howard and wrs to note are j.landry,s.diggs,W.Snead best Te being Rudolph so he would have
Gurley,Howard
J.Jones,S.watkins,Landry
Gronk
And best LB from last year bucs can also
Trade would be then
His D.Johnson,M.Gordon
For my J.Jones,S.Watkins,T.Gurley,Gronk,Kwon 18'1st lol sounds like so much but I can afford it for more security

so then your starting lineup would be (not including IDP- i'm clueless)
Rodgers
DJ and Gordon
ARob, Dez and DT
Eiffert

instead of
Rodgers
Gurley, Crowell (or Ingram)
Julio, ARob, Dez
Gronk

i guess you have the WR depth to do this...i would probably just go after one of them though
team 1 -start QB RB 2WR TE 2RB/WR 1WR/TE
qbs=5pt tds wr/te=1 ppr rbs=.5ppr all get .25ppc
Watson, Brady, Mills
Ekeler, Hunt, Carson/Penny, DForeman, Mitchell, CPat, Kyren, Ford, KHarris
Cooper, sutton, Chase, Shepard, Atwell, Schwartz, Wan'Dale, Austin III
Gesicki, Engram, Hooper, Woods
team 2 -start QB 2RB 3WR TE 2Flex K D
Cousins, Stafford
DH JT, Ekeler, Kylin Hill, Herbert, KHarris, Chandler
Hopkins, Diggs, Adams, Godwin, McLaurin, Callaway, DPJ, Robby Anderson, Schwartz, Pierce, Wan'Dale, Doubs
Kelce, Andrews, Jacob Harris

I think your team is ready for another championship even if you stay put. I'm not a Gordon so at his price I wouldn't personally be buying. As stated above DJ is gonna cost a ton and may be hard to acquire. I would stand pat and make the decision mid season if you have to add someone

You're coming off back to back championships, why make such a large scale change? I agree with vixen, I'd just go after 1 of those RBs.
16 Team PPR 1 QB - 2 RB - 2 WR - 1 TE - 1 Flex
QB- R.Wilson, B. Mayfield
RB- D. Cook, Zeke, J. Jacobs, J. McKinnon, A. Collins, I. Smith, B. Hill, R. Armstead, M. Boone
WR- J. Smith-Schuster, T. Boyd, C. Sutton, M. Brown, H. Ruggs, S. Miller
TE- G. Kittle, Enron, C. Herndon
'21 Picks- 1.12

Such a hard trade to try and make, I think DJ is almost unobtainable for a reasonable price. I dont try to buy guys coming off of career years.
Some ideas maybe
Julio for Melvin + future 1st
Julio, Gurley, Gronk for DJ and a 2nd (I hate this trade but Gronk and Gurley are coming off down years and is something like this which would be required if the owner is as bad as you say)

What is the likelihood of going after Bell? I have rated similarly to dJ and some owners are wary of him being banned for drugs. Julio straight up or a sweetener may get that one done
12 Team 1 pt PPR

I actually like the starting line-up that you have better than the one that you'd acquire. And the cost would be WAYYYY too high...

Not sure it's going to be worth giving up so much value for one or two players when your team is already coming off a championship.

I'd worry about giving up so much for two guys who were injured at the end of the year. Melvin has been dinged up dating back to college but DJ was the late season knee banger.

Suppose you deal the barnyard for those two and then they both get hurt? Your back-to-back-to-back would be shot.
