With my league overvaluing draft picks over players how would you go about exploiting it. Its for my team 2 sig where im trying to compete but rebuild at the same time but i dont see it happening with being thin at rb

I would keep 1.02 and draft an RB, unless you can get a top end RB for the 1.02. I'd look to move the 1.06 for someone like Devonta Freeman, if your leaguemate's are drastically overvaluing draft picks.

I basically agree with this, take either Guice, Chubb or Michael at 1.02, along with having Mixon, you’ll have two good RB prospects. The rest of your team isn’t bad, maybe need some depth at WR but not bad.

It doesn't hurt to ask. You may find a couple of leaguemates who extremely overvalue picks. I had 2 1sts and 2 2nds for this year in Panther Dynasty. By asking after certain players to check price, I got Hopkins for the 1.03 and both 2nds and ARob with the 1.09. No way I would've gotten that value through the draft.
Target a few RBs you'd rather have than 1.02 and ask what they'd want for them. Worst that could happen is you make your selection at 1.02.

I would keep the 1.02 to draft a running back, but try to package the 1.06 with a mid to higher level asset to get a quality running back.

I think that's solid advice to keep the 1.02 and try selling the 1.06 for an RB. If people are overvaluing draft picks like you said, you may be able to snag a value with the 1.06.

If your leaguemates value picks over players, sell the 1.02 for a haul. Obviously if you can't get good value, then keep it and draft the best player, but from what you're telling us, it sounds like you can get a stud for that pick. I'd offer all your pick for players you feel are worth more if guys don't know how to value them correctly, and even package some of the late picks and go after players you like.

Could you gives a few examples of trades in your league that show how the league overvalues picks? With those, I/we can give better pointed advice of which picks to trade and who to target.

Yea the first was Jordan Howard for 1.06 and Sheppard then 1.06 plus Agholar to 1.05 these 2 I don’t think are terrible but they could’ve waited till the draft and got more. Then the worse one was 1.05 and 2019 late 1st for freeman and 1.04. 1.05 is the champion from last year. This trade should never have been offered or accepted. And then I thought I got the 1.06 but it got vetoed. I offered Julio for 1.06 Moncrief and 2019 mid 1st. I think I undersold on julio but I figured I could turn the 1.06 into more with teams overvaluing picks. Might be better that it got vetoed. I was pretty pissed that one trade got accepted pretty unanimously and mine was vetoed. I almost think there might have been some collusion going on to veto it but no way I could prove it. Not sure what to think of this league if they just veto based on if they like he trade or not

I've found 2nd round picks will get the most value while OTC. Maybe it's perceived that they are worth less, but then people start seeing guys they want slip and will overpay. That's what I do every year with my second round picks

Depends. It's always easy to get someone's next years 1st for the pick if it's a guy they want. And you never know how those will fall. Players you like are possible if they aren't studs.

A sold "Taking offers on this pick for the next hour or so" will generate some urgency usually. Plus it creates competition.
