I would've loved to have drafted him with my 1.02 or 1.05 pick this year just to sell him for a known stud. HOLY SHIZA!

I'm all in on SELL SELL SELL right now if you can get a Evans, OBJ, and any other top 10 dynasty picks you might be in love with.
This is absolutely insane. People trading top dynasty assets for Hunt in the past few days will be posting in the 'worst move I ever made' type threads a few years from now.

Hunt isn't worth OBJ. Dumb leagues shouldn't represent the bar for value. In a competitive and rational league, that offer gets laughed at.

Yeah couldn't tell ya. I saw that on twitter and it seemed like the person panicked on OBJ due to injury.

Getting excited about someone you felt strongly about breaking out is one of the best parts of dynasty. Kudos to those that own him. But dunce cap to whoever traded OBJ straight up for him.. that's not even a rational overpay.

I'm a Hunt fan, and clearly any sane, reasonable, and experienced dynasty player would not trade OBJ for him. I've floated a few emails to gauge interest in my league, and no ones biting. I suspect it will take a few more good games for them, but by then I probably won't want to deal him.

Yeah, I'm just waiting to see what kind of offers come in. So far, an owner in one of my leagues asked me if I would do Pryor for Hunt but I said no thanks to that one.

A buddy of mine at work was doing a draft on break yesterday (1 year, ESPN thing) and he kept saying, "dude, I'm taking Hunt at pick 7, I've already made up my mind"

Well, I didn't have to try to talk him out of it because he went 1st.. First overall. Even in a one year scenario I think that's too soon.

Yeah, that's crazy. As much as I liked the way he looked, people that think he will do this again this season will be disappointed.

haha, dude is a die hard Panthers fan and usually one of three ways:
A) All panthers and hyped players
B) Following number by number fantasy draft books
C) Whatever someone tells him.

I'm sure he's thrilled now that he didn't take David Johnson #1 overall like most people. Lol... The fantasy Gods are very fickle!

I was as high on Hunt as anyone during the spring, but I never would have imagined a start as strong as this.


I'm not just talking about his stats either, he actually looks great out there.

Totally agree. He's the real deal imo, you would be hard-pressed to find many negatives in his game right now.
