Trade Cooks?

Postby pierson242 » Mon Jun 26, 2017 3:58 am

For Team 2 in sig


I've got a pretty healthy WR stable and a decent RB situation. We only have to start 1 RB a week and can start up to 5 WRs. I've got someone inquiring about Cooks. I traded Davis away pre draft for Cooks straight up. They've sent a verbal offer off Golden Tate and Willie Snead. I don't think that offer is terrible as Tate is understed and j think Snead is in for s big year. They've got some decent devys and other notables pieces would be Derick Henry Baldwin JMatt. I'm not super high on Cooks but also think he doesn't always get the credit he desverves. Any combos here worth trading him away for? I'm stuck on what to value him as!

So Cooks for any of Baldwin Henry Snead Tate JMatt?

Thanks for the help!

I would keep him. He will be lighting it up in my opinion.

I would just hold on to Cooks unless he was willing to include Baldwin in a deal. Try something like Baldwin and one of the other pieces maybe.

Considering you value Cooks are more than 1.1 (as you traded him for Davis), and the value of WR's in this league, I would probably want more than what he is willing to deal for him. I would probably ask for Baldwin and Henry (but, would not be surprised at all when it was declined). Might be best to hold.

That would be nice. I like that idea, but I am not big on Cooks. Patriots are tough to start in dynasty unless its Brady. They cost you as many weeks as they win you. Plus, how do we know Brady has the arm still to take advantage of Cooks. He has not thrown deep in years.

Since you traded the 1.1 for him I say do what Red Rooster said and ask for:
Cooks
FOR
Baldwin + Henry

Everyone in the league should know how you value Cooks after trading the 1.01 for him so this offer is actually insulting.
I agree that Tate is very underrated and that Snead could break out, but their perceived value is MUCH lower than that of Cooks. Dont sell short.

I agree with trying to get Henry in the deal. The initial offer was pretty bad though, so not sure how much more the other owner will be willing to add. Henry and Baldwin seems about right to me like others have already mentioned.

Baldwin + Henry would be great, but you would probably need to throw something back to him to even that one out. That would be my preference.

Snead is my next favorite of the guys listed, but I'm on the fence whether one of Baldwin/Henry + Snead is enough.
Dynasty player since 2002.
I probably should have done something more productive with that time...

You are solid at WR, trading Cooks for lesser WRs isn't a good fit for your team. Understand you can start 1 RB & 5 WRs but if trading Cooks it would be to improve your RB position, preferably a multiple player trade to get a stud.

I can't remember if it was PFF (or DLF) that stated that Brady has become more and more accurate on deep throw, and is like the 7th in the league in attemps on the deep ball (+20y).


On topic - IF you could pull something like Henry and Baldwin that would be great.
Perhaps Jmatt could be had cheap on top of Baldwin or something.
