Not an offer I would accept, but hardly one to be insulted over in a TE Premium league.
2020 BAD Trade Offers

Re: 2020 BAD Trade Offers
I wouldn't say it was insulting. I just thought it was bad. The extra 0.5 ppr that tes receive isnt really enough to make them significantly valuable

Re: 2020 BAD Trade Offers
Overall no it doesn't improve TEs as a whole, but it does significantly boost the elite TEs, which Andrews is.
Re: 2020 BAD Trade Offers
I was offered the 2020 1.07 for Patrick Mahomes. It is a 1 QB league, but still, it’s not going to happen.
Re: 2020 BAD Trade Offers
This is an absolute fair offer. Yes Mahomes is dynastty gold, but QB is so deep and easy to reload. They fact that I wouldn't take Burrow at 1.07 tells the story
I am just a guy sharing some thoughts

First, no one is "upset or insulted" or "thin skinned" over these trades. We're sharing them for a good laugh.

I have the leverage, he wants my player, he pays my price.
Goes back to what I say repeatedly, you want to start a "conversation", make it worth the other party's while. The thing about "bad offers" is this...either the other party truly values the assets involved based on his offer - in which case, there won't be an agreement - or he's being disingenuous, in which case he's a bad trade partner. Either way, it's just not happening. Most of us are recognizing that and just walking away to do something more important - like post in this thread and wash our cars in a blizzard or something.
Maybe you two can start a "cool story, bro" thread enlightening all of us of lower intelligence about how you negotiated from an offer of a 2nd round pick for DeAndre Hopkins (which I have in my inbox today, BTW) to getting 4 1sts for him.
PSA - Haggling is NOT the same as negotiating.

A lot of these bad offers are likely not that the other owner is awful at making valuations, but that they could be employing a strategy where they are controlling the price by setting the initial bid very low. Which in turns suggests they are only interested if they can buy that player well below consensus value.
It is not up to the owner getting the terrible offer to have to negotiate on the terms set by the buyer, especially if it is a valuable player they have little interest in moving. As a Hopkins owner I am much more likely to engage if you offer up Keenan Allen or Stefon Diggs, than if you offer up Robby Anderson & a 3rd.
Please speak to clarion contrarion before considering the use of vetos..
Re: 2019 Bad Trade Offers
The point is if another owner has a value that is way off base from you, maybe you could explore that. What other players is he lower on than you, or higher? You may find you stumble into an area you wouldn’t have even thought to look, and find a nice alignment where your value and theirs is way different, but in a positive way. And you can find a deal you like.Mephistopheles wrote: ↑Mon Feb 03, 2020 6:26 amYeah, no, not "this" at all.

Or you can be negative, come from the door with a bad attitude, and shut down the process. If you don’t want to “waste time” talking trade that’s fine. But yes you can sometimes turn an offer you don’t like into whole other offer you do like, just by keeping the communication going. That’s how 95% of trades happen, for me at least. Very rarely is a deal taken, or do I receive one I take, on the first offer.
I’m kinda thinking from your sig we are not going to agree on this whole trade process dealy to begin with though
Re: 2019 Bad Trade Offers
I think this is the biggest issue. Opening offers need to be in the ballpark. We're all trying to pay the bare minimum that we have to, but don't start stupidly low.
On rare occasions, I'll ask someone if they're sick of some player and open to selling him real cheap, but that's only when I have other information saying that's a possibility.
When I receive an very low ball offer that I'd consider posting on this thread, I reply to the offering owner that he's waaay too low and the conversation is over unless he makes a real offer. Try not to take offense to low balls, just brush them off and move on.
Not all that counts can be counted. Not all that can be counted counts.

Re: 2020 BAD Trade Offers
Yeah, its not good. But honestly, I don't think Wentz is that far off Lamar in Dynasty. However, based on what the scoring was last year, even in 1 QB, it's a low ball. It's basically Lamar for Wentz straight up. In real football terms, I wouldn't bat an eye, but in Fantasy, not a chance.HEADBANGER wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2020 9:07 pm Wentz, Sternberger, 2021 2nd for my Lamar & 3.03.

What's odd about Sugbear's response is that, in my experience both first-hand and in talking with friends who are DFF owners, the ones who get angry or pissed off about those bad offers are generally the ones who initially send the offers and get them rejected or ignored, not the ones on the receiving end. If I have a reaction, it's generally indifference if anything. But I guess people can rationalize anything they want.
When I receive an offer like that, I just either reject or let it expire (depends on the league, some commishes get really pissed off about letting trades expire). If I think it's worth enough of a laugh, I'll post it here (mostly for the sales pitches).

Re: 2020 BAD Trade Offers
Just put up the 1.03 on the block asking for offers involving a QB or RB. Got these 4 offers almost immediately.
1. Give: 1.03, Mike Evans
Get: 1.01
2. Give: 1.03
Get: Foles
3. Give: 1.03, Golladay
Get: Bridgewater
4. Give: 1.03, Mike Evans
Get: Daniel Jones
Our player values don't seem to align.
