Cooper for A Package?

Postby Farley » Fri Jun 22, 2018 5:26 am

I've got a pretty solid team that doesn't have much depth. Been offered this for my Cooper:

Give: Amari
Get: Collins, Parker, Godwin, and 2019 1st (likely mid)

My key players and league settings below.

Start 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 2Flex - ppr (1.5 for TEs)
Big Ben, Mariota
Zeke, Barkley, McKinnon
Thomas, Cooper, Diggs, Moore, Cobb
Ertz, Njuko

Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks so much.

It’s a solid offer and it would definitely help you with depth but I think keeping Cooper helps you win now, more than the package. I think your team looks strong so I would probably pass on that deal.

Keep cooper. I think he’s primed for a bounce back. He may never be that stud wr1 everyone thought, but I see him being more of a super dependable wr2

Close, voted Cooper, may have taken the package if rebuilding and could flip Collins and Parker

Cooper. Most likely the only player relevant in 3 years (other than the first).

This is how I feel about him. I don't think he'll ever be in the top 5 wr, but I can see him consistently being in the 10-15 range of that bottom WR1, top WR2 range.

This is very close.

It boils down to whether you believe Godwin or Parker will break out to WR2 level or not.
Parker has had 3 years to prove himself. Not saying he can't be decent, but the odds of him becoming a WR1 all of a sudden are not good.
Godwin has that "it" factor. He also has a 25 year old WR on his team entrenched at the WR1 spot and a huge looming QB fiasco in Tampa now. He has the talent but his ceiling is capped.

Collins is solid - but would it really surprise anyone if Dixon came on strong and made a bit of a mess of the situation? It would not surprise me.

And then there's the pick.

The sum of the parts is greater than Cooper - but you can't definitively see a route where any of the pieces become as valuable or more than Cooper - who has his own opportunity to "break out" this year.

I'd actually pursue the idea of this trade - but I'd try to swap out a piece or two into players with a higher ceiling potentially.

I'd happily sell Cooper for that, but I'm not as high on him as most.

The value is there, but the need isn't. None of those pieces would be starting for you. I guess maybe you have to be a believer in Parker to make the trade and I'm not.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

It’s a fair offer value wise on paper because all these pieces add up to Cooper. The best piece being the 2019 pick.

I would easily stick with Cooper here

I think Parker is a WR3 with upside this year. And Godwin becomes a WR2 next year...once DeSean is out of the picture. I also think Collins is safe RB2. He won't have much value after the season, imo. But I'd flip him early in the offseason.

Cooper worries me. His value falls off a CLIFF if he has anywhere close to a repeat of last season.
