2019 In Season Trade Thread

[ausmith26]

My league pays out 2/3 of the buy in every year to the top 3 and every 4 years the other 1/3 goes into a big pot for 1st place. This is the 4th year so I am going all in for the championship.

Gave: Allen Robinson, 2020 1.03, and what should be a top 6 2021 pick

Got: Kamara & 2020 3.02

I really liked the idea of having the 1.03 AND the 1.04 in this draft, but I couldn't resist grabbing a top 5 RB without removing any one of my starters. Sets me up as the favorite for this year... but once playoffs hit, anything can happen.

depth or not, i don't like to give away WRs that produce in their first year in a mediocre team.

That's fair. That was my main hang-up with it but wanted to get my guy.

i won't argue with that!

Traded for Jameis and I'm not proud of it.

Gave up Mason Rudolph, Big Ben and a late 3rd and 4th (which in a 16 teamer are guys that wouldn go undrafted in a 12 team rookie draft).

Obviously I'm trying to talk myself off the ledge.

I don't think its that bad. Sure Jameis sucks but you gave up a bunch of other garbage to get him.

And I know what its like to overpay for a QB.

I just sent Goff, Watkins amd a late 3rd and got back Rodgers and Pettis.

I hate the trade but couldnt stand Goff getting me negative points anymore

I'd do that deal in a heartbeat for a contender!

Its 10 team so QBs shouldnt be worth anything but rosters are big so they get hoarded

How did you manage to give up the 2 lesser pieces and get the 2 best pieces????

Yeah, well it's a matter of context Gurley is not a starter for me, he's my RB4 in a start 2, and he's not a top flex option for me, either. I am thinking it's downhill from here. He may have a decent game vs Arizona, but Gurley just isn't the same guy. I was convinced all off season he would be, but he's not. It's only going to get worse next year, IMO. I want Henderson for the future, and I also have Drake, so if he goes down, I expect DJ to get some sort of role again. DJ is under contract next year, and may bounce back a bit from his state right now. I have no picks next year, and I'd rather have a guy like Henderson for the future, and DJ as a dice roll next year. Todd Gurley won't fetch a first this off season. The reality is he'll be worth a 2nd round pick in all likelihood come draft time I am fine with it. I have a shot to win a title this year, and I like the 2 for 1 move for next year. Gurley was firmly planted on my bench, and that wasn't going to change. His value is shot, and I can't even trust him in my lineup down the stretch.

Owner asked for a qb in league chat "send offers". I Just threw sometime at him. Obviously very happy with the result.

This would shock me. In a down year (bad O-line, limited touches) Gurley is still a top 15 rb. On pace for 1000+ YFS and double digit TDs. Is he the league winner he was? Nope. Can he remain a high end RB2 for the next few years? Easily. That's worth far more than a random 2nd.

I am well aware of the value he holds in that league. It won't be, in April. I was lucky to get this. I still like the package for my team and longer term outlook. I believe Henderson will be a factor next year.

The gentleman doth protest too much, methinks.

Somewhat poking fun at you, but also I am being sincere. I just don't understand panic selling a distressed asset RB because he is a has-been in your opinion, when you are trading for another has-been (except DJ hasn't been a real stud for 3.5 years), and a mid day-2 dart throw.
