Bad trades and big mistakes thread
Re: Bad trades and big mistakes thread
My worst trade happened during April of this year. I traded Brandin Cooks and 2.7 for 1.2. I thought DK Metcalf was going to be a stud and thought he'd be the next best thing in the league. I then traded Leveon, JuJu and 1.2 for Zeke, Diggs, and 1.3. I turned 1.3 into Miles Sanders. So, at the end of the day I lost WR depth bigly.

Right after our 2016 draft, someone in our league got rookie fever and sold Julio Jones for Laquon Treadwell + Matt Jones + 2017 1st (ended up being 1.09 I think).

In my 10tm SuperFlex, I was offered Brissett & Pollard for Justice Hill 3 days before Luck retired (I own Luck)
...Since I'm posting here, I think you know whether I accepted/declined

I took Baker Mayfield in the second round of last years rookie draft. I immediately got an offer of a 2019 1st for him so I took it. I figured since I had Andrew Luck, I would be fine. Now Luck has retired and I'm second guessing the decision to trade Mayfield. I won't call it a bad trade yet. I have Cousins and Brissett and used the pick for JJAW. But if I could go back in time, I would keep Baker.

Re: Bad trades and big mistakes thread
Rough. At least a 1st is still good value... I had Darnold slightly above Baker coming out, so I offered Baker + a little for Darnold, instant decline. Got the offer of Darnold for Baker straight up in week 4 hahahaVolfanJB wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2019 3:23 pm I took Baker Mayfield in the second round of last years rookie draft.

Re: Bad trades and big mistakes thread
I was just looking back at my startup draft from 2014...
I apparently drafted Davante Adams with the 189th pick.
I do not remember picking him there.
I do not own him now. Don't even think he made it through that season on my roster.
I do not remember what I got for him, so probably 0
I messed up somewhere...

Sold a 2020 1st of a team that had Antonio Brown and Damien Williams as two key starters because I thought the pick would be late

Re: Bad trades and big mistakes thread
This is why I love trading for "projected late 1sts", every now and then they aren't so late and become massive steals.Prison_Mike wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2019 10:25 am (Team 1)

Re: Bad trades and big mistakes thread
My league does its draft during the actual NFL draft, and at that juncture in time this year, I dealt Tyreek Hill AND Tevin Coleman for the 1.10 in a 14 team league amidst all the hoopla with Tyreek. I basically had him as a throw in to go with Coleman, thinking Hill might be gone for awhile, if not more.... well, we all know how that turned out! On top of it all, I selected Parris Campbell to replace Hill, figuring he would be playing with Luck for years to come... that one I wish I had back, but I am still optimistic about Campbell none the less. Oh well!

5 or 6 games into the Kamara breakout, I "sold high" -- gave up Kamara, McKinnon, and a first for Leveon Bell.
