Couple trades

[cusefan115]

So I'm in a dynasty ppr (te's 1.5 ppr) league. I'm normally not much of a trader but I just pulled off two huge (for me) trades.

First one:
gave
Trent Richardson
Marqise Lee
Justin Hunter
Tyler Eifert

Got
Tavon Austin
Alshon Jeffery
Bernard Pierce
Pick 2.12
Round 1 2015 pick

trade two
Gave
Tavon Austin
EJ Manuel

Got
Montee Ball

Thoughts? And be easy one me. Not much of a trader.

I think you came out ahead on both. Good job!

[TommyL31]

Trade one is a slam dunk. I'm a Tavon Austin and not huge Ball fan so I'm not wild about the second but I think most people would say you won that as well.

[DallasN1213]

I don't love the first one but the 2nd makes up for it.

Hmmm...opinions are varied. I guess that probably means they were pretty even overall.

[Rosenbluu]

No you definitely won the first one, second one was close but I think you still won

[sugbear65]

Strictly value wise I think you won both trades hands down.

[npowellff]

I think you got destroyed in the first one, but I am higher on all 4 of those players than most. Second one is fine.

[sugbear65]

Wow, destroyed? I'm not trying to give you a hard time, I have plenty of guys I like or dislike much more than the masses. But on perceived value I don't think it's really all that close. You'd probably have a hard time getting Alshon alone for that price in a lot leagues. Hard to call a trade a loser that gains an owner that much value.

[Calroid]

I personally think you lost them both but there's lot's of polarizing players involved.

It probably means that both trades are very close. It`s very likely that each side thinks they won.

Yikes I hope so. Not loving the word destroyed.

[BuckeyeNation]

I like the side you received in both deals. I think you did very well.

[Nightmares]

The first one is a slam dunk for you imo. I own Jeffery and Hunter and love both, but would not deal Jeffery for that package and you also got Austin and a '15 1st. I am not that high on Austin, but many are, so you can probably flip him at a decent price, which you did.

[auggiedoggies]

You crushed the first trade. You gave up T rich and 3 prospects for a top 15 overall dynasty asset, plus Pierce, plus Tavon, plus a couple of picks? Well done. Don't see how anyone can call this a loss for you

I like the 2nd as well, but mainly because I don't like Tavon

[smudga55]

the thing is, last offseason T Rich was in mamy.peoples top 3 overall dynasty assets.....what a difference a year makes.
As with all trades that involve T Rich, it pretty much comes down.to whether you think he can get close to the potential he displayed when he entered the league - most people are convinced he's JAG now but those that do believe value him highly, for that reason I'm sure any T Rich trade will be met with many comments supporting shipping him off, and a handfull of passionate ones expressing how it was a giveaway.
As one of the previous posters alluded to, when you include such.polarising players, you will get extreme replies both ways.
