This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

I have picks 6 and 8, any moves to try before NFL draft?

Postby hockeyBjj » Thu Apr 19, 2018 8:07 am

We'll do our rookie draft sometime in June. For my team 1, I have picks 6 and 8 (moved a 2019 1st and 2.10 for the 8) Is there anything I should be looking to do before the draft?

I have a boatload of RB2s/low1s but don't have a stud there. I've tried and tied and my league holds onto top rbs like a fat kid holding onto candy. It seems everything after 4 is super whishy washy and up in the air range of ~6 guys in any order so I kind of wanted to get another pick in there for two chances of hitting that 50% hit rate. Wondering if I should maybe try and get into the top 4 before owners are solidified with their player after learning landing spots? Or is the draft more likely to cause these midish picks I have to look better with the clarity of Rojo/Penny/Freeman and even Sutton/Ridley/Moore some of them getting far better teams/draft capitol spent on them

1.2 owner has refused offers of 1.6, 1.8, 3.7.
1.3 owner declined my 1.6 and 19 first (back when I had it) offer

Honestly closest I'd come to a deal for a top rb was acquiring Kamara but giving up D Henry, 1.6, 2.10, 3.7, 5th, 2019 2nd-4th and that felt too much like throwing my future away

Make a list of the RBs you would pay the 1.06 and 1.08 for and offer them in the order of RBs you like most. Hopefully one of them accepts and you got yourself a RB1.

I'd make the trade for Kamara - I get that it's a lot of picks, but you've got a legit team and plenty of depth already. Ideally it'd be nice if you could keep the 3.7 and draft one of the QBs this year as that's a weak spot.

picks will go up in value and gain clarity shortly, wait till after NFL draft and see how you feel. i m betting you will like one RB (penny or jones) at 6 and a WR at 8 (one of ridley sutton or moore)

I would just hold at 1.06 and 1.08. Worse case scenario you take WR and WR and then can just trade out. With young WR they only have to shine a little bit to be flipped for an RB. Also pretty good change you land a solid RB at 1.06. You could try and move up to 1.04 (i know 1.02 and 1.03 are out).

I think that's too much for Kamara also. Henry and 1.06 is about right to me. The rest isn't hugely valuable but that stuff all adds up. I don't think you are in that deep a need that you need to overpay. other than that, I agree with every post so far.
