2023 Bad Trade Offers

[tstafford]

Give Achane + 2nd
Get Spears

WOW!

[FiremanEd]

Some gold in here. Great work folks.

[mzkp54]

Give: Aaron Jones, Mike Evans

Get: Chuba Hubbard, Zack Moss, Ernest Jones

[killer_of_giants]

20 teams, 1QB, IDP

give: lawrence

get: aidan o'connell, roger mccreary, shaq leonard, a 4th

(for those not inside IDP, mccreary is DB 83 on the year and DBs have little to no value, and leonard is a "has been" in another very replaceable position).

Two gems (from different owners) in same league. 10 team superflex where I am rebuilding.

Offer 1:
I send JSN
I receive two 2024 2nds (from the top two teams, so looking like 2.09 and 2.10)

Offer 2:
I send QJ + Jameson Williams + J Mingo
I receive Hyatt + Brandin Cooks + Tyler Irwin

I’m honestly not sure which is more insulting.

[hoos89]

Actually laughed at this one

Give: 24 1st, ‘26 1st
Get: ‘25 1st

To be fair...there's a team in one of my leagues that is so bad I would have to consider this offer if I was giving my picks and getting theirs. Their team is 200 points possible behind 11th place (and they have 2 firsts not like 6+ or something that would make me too worried about them turning it around and making the 25 1st late).

Right? I mean if it was 1.12 and 1.12 for 1.01 I'd do that.

Easily offer 1 is the worst. Offer 2 is a bunch of bad players for a bunch of slightly worse bad players.

Offer 2 I wasn’t even sure what side I’d want. You could argue Hyatt has shown the most

Wow. I am genuinely shocked that you are on the fence with that second trade. My thought that I would much rather have three young dart throws than one + a 30 year old WR + a 27 year old warm body at WR. And while I agree Hyatt has prob shown the most so far, I don’t think he has stood out substantially versus the other side of the trade.

[dvpkwys]

10 Team non PPR.

Sent a 2025 1st for Pollard (glad he didn't take it). Here is the counter:

Pollard/Thielen

for

Hockenson/DJ Moore/Higgins

The perk to the older players is you know when to cut ties. With the young guns you're just waiting for the fish to bite. But turns out you're only fishing in an empty bucket.

12 team SF PPR Start 10

I don’t disagree…but at some point (especially if rebuilding) wouldn’t you want to take a gamble on the possible empty bucket versus the known stale fish? The only thing that Cook would do for me is adding unwanted points to my weekly points and hurting my productive struggle. Same with Irwin. Hyatt is interesting for sure…but in my current team strategy I would prefer three dart throws to one.
