Beckham+ for D. Cook+ Trade

Postby Phil21 » Thu Sep 19, 2019 4:40 pm

Just completed this trade:

Received-
Odell Beckham Jr.
Ryan Fitzpatrick
Kalen Ballage

Gave-
Dalvin Cook
Daniel Jones
2020 2nd
2021 1st

Did I overpay for Beckham with Dalvin Cook's rise? Felt like I needed the WR upgrade with AJ Green out, and JuJu being meh so far this year. Cook was just sitting on my bench with my other 2 starting RBs. Now just need to find a backup RB, maybe Ballage can turn it on..

QB - Burrow, Stafford, Brissett
RB - Pierce, J. Williams (DEN), Mostert, Elliott, Ealy, Reynolds

Pretty big overpay in my eyes as I think Cook has talent and situation to surpass Elliott/McCaff this season and beyond. I'd score it like this:
Cook < OBJ
Jones >>>> Fitz
2021 1st > Ballage
2020 2nd is a free give away

Yea I hate this. Cook and Beckham are essentially equals to me, and every thing else is heavily on the Cook side.

Not huge overpay but more than I would have wanted by probably a 1st. If you value ballage high then its a bit better

I like it. I don't know when Cook and OBJ became equal. Cook and a 1st two years from now maybe equals OBJ. The rest of the pieces in this deal have very little value and don't make much of a difference.

Its an overpay because its non-ppr. In PPR this is a fine trade

Pretty big overpay for non-ppr imo. Not sure why the picks were needed, feels like a pretty big loss.

Despite standard scoring this is how I see it. Seems like a fair trade

This is how I felt making the trade. Think Cook is being a little overvalued here with his injury history, but that may just be me. But he was a "bench backup" for me, and my team is young/good so that 1st should be late (like 13-16 overall).

Also traded a 3rd rounder for Hyde, so have a semi backup for bye weeks now.

I'm also not a Ballage believer but maybe he takes over RB1 in MIA, not that's worth anything really right now..

Nailed it as usual. This trade seems just fine to me.
