Kupp for Lindsay/2020 2nd

Postby Gandalf » Wed Jul 17, 2019 9:27 am

Number of Teams: 13 teams with 30 man rosters (40 man rosters in the offseason)
League settings: 0.5 PPR, standard scoring otherwise
Starting Lineup: 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 2Flex (WR/RB/TE), TE, DST, K

I give:
  • Cooper Kupp
I get:
  • Phillip Lindsay
  • 2020 2nd
Roster:
QB: Big Ben, Sam Darnold, Case Keenum
RB: David Johnson, Melvin Gordon, Derrius Guice, Carlos Hyde, Nyheim Hines, Bruce Anderson, Tony Pollard, Andre Ellington, Ameer Abdullah, Brian Hill, Thomas Rawls
WR: DeAndre Hopkins, Keenan Allen, Cooper Kupp, Allen Robinson, Dante Pettis, DK Metcalf, Alshon Jeffery, Trent Taylor, Trey Quinn, Kendrick Bourne, Emmanuel Butler, Jordan Lasley, Auden Tate, Jaelen Strong
TE: Zach Ertz, Vance McDonald, Tyler Eifert, Kahale Warring, Drew Sample, Maxx Williams, Alize Mack

2020 Draft Stock: 3rd, 4th (x2), 5th
2021 Draft Stock: 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th
2022 Draft Stock: 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th

The offer above is on the table. I place a high first value on Kupp and a mid first value on Lindsay. I originally offered Kupp for Lindsay/Deebo and suggested I throw an add on in there but the Lindsay/Deebo owner wasn't interested in that. The Lindsay/Deebo owner countered with the offer above and that's where I'm at.

I think the trade is "fair". However, I am reluctant to trade for RBs with low draft capital. It sounds silly but these types of RBs typically don't get as much opportunity in the long term. I'm worried Lindsay may be a one year wonder and would hate to move Kupp for a player like that. On the flip side, I don't get to see many Broncos games where I'm at so I don't have a very good opinion on Lindsay as a player. Did he look like an RB that can be trusted to put up RB2/fringe RB1 numbers in 2019 and beyond?

What do you all think? Is this a fair deal/should I go through with the trade to shore up my RB room?

I think Kupp and Lindsay should have similar value, but most are much higher on Kupp than I am. For that reason, keep Kupp or try to get more.

I think that's a fair offer, but would keep Kupp. Even with Deebo, who I value at a mid 1st, I'd probably side with Kupp. I just don't trust Lindsay yet with Freeman being there too.

Even if these two are valued similarly, to me it's the situation Kupp is in that gives him the nod here. I'm taking Goff and McVay's system over Lindsay battling Freeman and the Broncos WRs for that matter.
