Trade for Demaryius

[Jimmy Jones]

Team in sig, I am not contending this year. I am thinking of offering Jamaal Charles and Michael Crabree for Demaryius Thomas, Gio, and Ridley. Am I offering too much, enough, or is this a fiar trade. Should I throw in someone to play for Crabtree or will that make the trade appear less apealing (Sanders/Marlon Brown/or Robert Woods)?

I don't think there is any way the other owner accepts that trade. But if u can get it to go through, more power to u.

As a Thomas, Gio, and Ridley owner, I don't think that trade is even in the ballpark. You give up the best player for this season (Charles), who is arguably the best player in the trade by positional scarcity at RB, but get in return the next 3 most valuable pieces. Try Charles and Crabtree for Thomas and Gio or Ridley, not both. That is a whole lot closer in my mind.

I was under the impression that Crabtree was better than Ridley. I added Emanuel Sanders to the offer to make it 3 for 3. Would it be worth it for me to do just Charles and Crabb for Thomas and Gio? Also, Is Ridley better than Ellington?

[Jimmy Jones]

Would Charles, Ellington, Mendenhall, and Crabtree for Thomas, Gio, BJGE, and Ridley be a good trade?

Too many pieces. Keep it simple. Who is the main piece or two you are trying to get and go from there

[Jimmy Jones]

Demaryius and Gio are the main guys I want, is it enough for me to give up Charles and Crabtree? Ridley makes it worth it but tilts the scales a little too far. I proposed Charles, Crabtree and Sanders for those 3, perhaps I should have done Ellington or Palmer (Superflex) instead.

My thought exactly.
Are you trying to trade Charles? Should be a ton of options if you are looking to trade him.
If you are trying to unload Crabtree now is probably not the best time. A few weeks ago when Ridley was in the doghouse/sitting out injured you may have gotten him straight up for Crabs...probably still should however the questions about Crabtree ever returning to his pre-injury form will tank his value unless you find a partner that believes strongly in him.

If you are looking at only DThomas that is a different thing entirely. I wouldn't trade Charles for DT and Gio but I am not as high on Gio as some seem to be. Charles is killing it right now and the entire Chiefs offense runs though him. Probably not a more valuable player in the league for PPR fantasy leagues right now or at least he would be my top target if I wanted to make a play for the title
