Most of mine are the ones I didnt make. Like turning down DK for 1.08 last preseason or a 2022 1st for Akers mid season.

After a rookie draft, I gave Deandre Hopkins & got Lamar Miller

Last year with the same owner, I gave Antonio Gibson & Got Chase Claypool. Hope this one doesn't burn me as bad.

Two years ago, 14 team PPR like sig league. This one burning more and more since-
Gave 1.6, 1.7, 1.15
Got Mariota and Evans

Was considered a top team at the time and in the years since. My WR corps has aged and could use who those picks became- AJ Brown, Deebo Samuel, Marquise Brown, respectively.
League #1- 14 tm ppr, 1Q, 2R, 3W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1K
1 DT, 2 DE, 2 LB, 1 CB, 1 S, 1 flex

League #2- 12 team PPR, 1Q, 1R, 2W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1 W/R/T, 1 Def

League #3- 12 tm PPR, 1Q, 0R (yes, ZERO RB) 3W, 1T, 2 R/W/T flex, 1 Def

Nope. It was part of the same story where I traded away Deandre Hopkins for Lamar Miller. At that time, that Hopkins/Lamar trade seemed neutral like Gibson/Claypool. Just hoping that Karma doesn't screw me again :)

Gave: 1.08, Derrick Henry Got: Saquon (January 2020)

Gave: 2021 1 (1.12), 2 (2.12), Mostert Got: Drake (August 2020)


Ironically Saquon tore his acl, Justin Jefferson went 1.08 and Akers 1.09. Had to move Saquon in season for Adams or give up on the season in week 2. This trade looked like a huge win when I made it but it's the one I regret most

Drake was an every week flex starter on my championship team and I got my 1st back for peanuts. Though it still hurts long term, it's not as bad as when I initially made it.

I think the actual argument is that you shouldn't trade 4 1st for any player yet alone aging RBs (Gurley). No one could really see the Hunt stuff coming, but paying 4 firsts in an overpay.

Oh boy, I have got you all beat, hands down. I was way to high on Bishop Sankey when he was drafted, and I have proof. Though I still stand by my belief that “Stank-y” wasn’t given a fair shake.

Your Highness gave up Adams, Davante GBP WR;Hopkins, DeAndre HOU WR; Year 2016 Round 1 Draft Pick from Your Highness
Cypress Swampmen gave up Sankey, Bishop TEN RB;Fleener, Coby IND TE
Sun May 25 9:28:15 a.m. ET 2014

So...yeah I can’t defend that. All I can say is it was before Adams and Nuk really broke out. But woof.
