Devy player trade thoughts

I just recently traded Markus Wheaton, Jermichael Finley, & Jeremy Langford (Mich. St. RB) for Jordan Reed, & the 5.10 & 6.10 in our just completed rookie draft. Those picks wound up being D'haquille Williams (Auburn WR) & Ezekial Elliott (Ohio St. RB). The devy players aside, Reed for Wheaton/Finley feels like a big win for me, and the devy players are all crapshoots right now, but I bought two chances for one in the deal.

Thoughts?

You destroyed this deal. Insane the value you got. Love the picks you made that late, too. Duke Williams has kind of a Cordarelle Patterson vibe around him where it seems obvious he'll kill it and be one-and-done at Auburn.

Thanks. About how I felt about it too. I was after Ebron in a similar deal (didn't feel like he'd move Reed), but I accepted his counter of Reed in a heartbeat.

On a sidenote, I was real happy with my entire draft. Tell me what you think. This was year two of our league, so the draft is diluted to a degree.

1st rd: Karlos Williams
2nd rd: Alex Collins
3rd rd: Josh Malone
4th rd: Nick Chubb
5th rd: D'haquille Williams
6th rd: DJ Foster, Ezekial Elliott

My existing devy guys from last year are...
Amari Cooper
Stefon Diggs
Thomas Tyner
Brett Hundley
Barry Sanders Jr
Jonathan Gray
Jordan Matthews (drafted by Philly)
