Solid based on current value, light based on dynasty value. Not sure I would have done it but I'm one who expects Cooper to return to form. He may not though, in which case you would have won heavily.

I should mention I can only keep 8 players and for some reason I am not feeling overly confident with Cooper even though I should know he is going to be ok. I also am on the Josh Gordon and Ju Ju smith hype train 😂. I feel like I have a decent receiving core and have noticed picks in this league are viewed as being very valuable (I used two 2nds and Parker to get AJG prior to Greens explosion last week). I am hoping that with these picks and a couple players I can get my ultimate goal which would be a guy like Evans, Hopkins or Thomas.

Cooper side as well, Foreman still hasn't beat out a average Miller for the #1 role.

This is such an interesting thread. I'm going Foreman side here. I think he's the starter in HOU next season and definitely one of your top-8 players. Also, you're rolling a mid-first in a big draft AND your league only keeps eight. I think you won this one unless Cooper comes back and somehow lives up to all the hype. And I think that will prove to be a decent haul even if he does pretty well. I think Cooper comes back as a solid WR2 and Foreman becomes a RB2 by next year. That leaves you with a free mid-first and a couple thirds in a league when there will be some nice lotto tickets come draft time.

Time will tell if you came out on top, but at this time, I think you made a smart, justifiable trade.

Seems like you either hate the trade or like the trade lol. My end goal this year is to make a run at a ship and to also get saquon Barkley. I needed to add another first round pick in order to do this and currently the thought of landing Barkley is too much. I plan to move my 1st and a couple picks that I have acquired and two of my younger guys to get McCoy and what should be the 1.01 overall pick. The 1st overall pick I received in this Cooper transaction is from a team that is 3-2, however they are the second lowest scoring team (he has played the lowest scoring teams in the league 2/5 weeks and barely squeaked by in the others). His only real assets are julio, Howard and now Cooper if Cooper turns it around. Basically made a bet his team will start losing and that I will have two top 6 picks if I can get the McCoy trade done along with his 1st round pick. Then I would have first round picks from the two lowest scoring teams in the league.
