Picked up Lynch off waivers amidst his unretirement rumblings a few weeke ago. Today, I received the following trade offer for Lynch (from original owner) in 53 man roster, tackle heavy IDP standard offense scoring MFL League. We roster 90 and cut down with NFL schedule to 53 before week 1.

My 2017 Rookie draft picks: 4, 8, 14, 15, 18, 24, 28, 44, 54, 64, 74, thru 124 (Rookie Draft 5/14/17)

My RBs- Ezekiel Elliot, Jay Ajayi, Carlos Hyde, Thomas Rawls, Matt Forte, Ryan Mathews, and Deondre Washington (Start 2)

My CBs - Trumaine Johnson LAR, Jamar Taylor CLE, Kareem Jackson HOU, Anthony Brown DAL, and Jaylen Collins ATL - top three scored 71-72 points (Start 2)

Trade - I give Lynch and receive
Malcom Butler (CB) - finished #6 - 98 points
Casey Hayward (CB) - finished #1 - 112 points
Perry Riley (LB) - 48 points (non factor given my LBs)

Heads up Trade offers me an aggregate increase of 65 CB points or an add'l 4 CB points per week from two top 10 CBs. Dynasty IDP CBs value with 2017 draft class rookie talent is pretty low.

Trade Response - Option 1- Lynch for Butler, Hayward and 2018 3rd

Trade Response - Option 2 - Lynch for 2018 2nd and Hayward

Trade Response - Option 3 - Lynch for Martavis Bryant and Contingent 2018 3rd (awarded if Bryant fails another drug test)

Trade Response - Option 4 - Lynch and Reggie Ragland for 2018 1st
I do not have a barometer for Lynch Value. I optimistically forecast 10 games, 225 carries for 960 yards 6 TDs/22 rec 270 yards 1 TD or RB 3 numbers

Interested in your thoughts on my response offers or suggestions for head to head player or 2018 Pick trades so I can gauge value.
Thx in Advance.

Unless it's a 32-team league where you start 3 CBs every week, there's no way I give up a starting RB for some corners & a mediocre street-FA linebacker. He's trying to hustle you.

I'd ignore this guy's offers and put Lynch on the trade block. You wanna know his value by letting the whole league bid on him. Don't accept any offers of DBs for him, tho. I'd want a full starting crop of linebackers for him on this hype-train. I'd hurry up, too, because Oakland will draft a mid-round RB that will likely take the reins from him at some point.

I'd do option 3 or option 4 out of those
