Shady McCoy Value/Trade

[Markdavis3033]

Talking with an owner about a possible trade involving LeSean McCoy, but I'm having a tough time putting a value on him. This is in a 12 team ppr dynasty league.

He's offering the 1.8 for McCoy straight up. Would you take the deal or leave it?

Here's my roster:

Start 11 on offense

QB (start 2):
Brady
Brees
McCaron

RBS (start 2-5):
Christian McCaffrey
Devonte Freeman
Mark Ingram
LeSean McCoy
Dion Lewis
Matt Breida
Joe Williams

WRs (start 3-6):
Michael Thomas
Golden Tate
Larry Fitz
Chris Hogan
Jameson Crowder
Randall Cobb

TEs: (start 1-2):
Gronk
Jared Cook

You also start a kicker and a punter

My Draft Picks:
2.12
3.2
3.7
3.8
3.11
4.10
5.12

I like the trade for you. This is a nice draft and you have decent depth at RB. Shady has been great but he is at the crossroad imo.

[UnsafeAtAnySpd]

You have the RB depth to manage losing McCoy and you're getting out with a first for him while you can (he should still put up point 1-2 years at least but his value will continue to drop).

Take it.

I def make that deal in a Superflex.

You have RB depth to spare, your QBs are old, and no matter what either one of the top 4 RBs or 5 QBs will drop to you at 1.08.

I'm actually somewhat surprised someone will pay that for McCoy these days, Buffalo is going to have a rookie QB, and they'll be playing from behind/passing a ton, and because Tyrod isn't a threat to run defenses can more easily load the box to stop McCoy.

Selling McCoy for that pick is a great deal in the long term.

[WhatWouldDitkaDo]

I'd do that for multiple reasons:
1. McCoy is worth a late 1st, but 1.08 in a 2QB = 1.05 in normal leagues due to the top rookie QBs being drafted early.
2. You have enough RB depth as a contender to make this move. You can use 1.08 to upgrade your QBs or draft one of the rookies if they fall to you there.

[Goddard]

That's fair value for McCoy and since you already have 3 other good starting RBs, I'd make that move.

Ended up taking the deal.

Final trade ended up being McCoy and Carl Lawson for 1.8 and Brandon Graham.

Now I gotta figure out who to take at 1.8

[Vcize]

Easy accept. Shady is done and this offer is a gift.

Take it and run!
