He's gotta be on his way out after this season.
With how stagnant the team is, and how poor the roster management/draft has been Pete and Schneider have got to go. You've had the one of the best QBs in the league for nearly a decade now, and have 1 superbowl to show for it, and during his tenure I dont think the Oline has ever been considered in the top 12. You throw money and draft picks (through drafting or trading) at the defense to recapture the 2013 team, but rules have changed and Defenses dont win championships anymore, they are too handcuffed to match offenses these days.

That money and draft capital could have been spent on protecting Russ and getting him weapons, the outside of DK the Hawks offensive moves have been horrible, Penny (the year after Carson goes for 1,300+ from scrimmage) and Eskridge (You just paid Lockette big money a couple years before this pick and he has been lights out this entire time, plus DK just popped in his rookie year, why reach on some random kid that runs fast?) have been wastes/reaches and the *only* offensive players selected in the first 2 rounds (sans DK) Since 2016 (Germaine Ifedi) You cannot invest that much top tier capital on the defense year after year to roll out a below average D.

The hawks need someone that isnt stuck in 2013 at GM/HC. I love the energy that Pete brings to the team, but he just isnt getting it done as HC, and there needs to be someone with a different mindset in charge and I doubt Pete sticks around without being HC.

If I’m a contender I’m trying to turn DK into Adams, Diggs, maybe even Mclaurin if possible.. Check the rebuilding teams. If I’m rebuilding I’m happy to hold.

Nah, this is just the OP going full boomer "because he has blue hair"

By all accounts he's a great dude. They're all just frustrated right now at the state of their team/season, so some not-so-veiled things are being said at their pressers like "I'm tired of losing" and "we need to play better".

I think he is a sneaky buy for a contender at the right price. His schedule during FF playoffs is something special, and hopefully Russ will get back to form with more time for his finger to heal and the coaching staff/management fighting for their jobs, you best believe they are going to do everything possible to score as much as possible

Thanks to this thread I just sent out a few reasonable offers in different leagues. One accepted so far...

R. Moore, 2022 mid to late 1st, and 2022 mid to late 2nd for Metcalf in a 16 team, 1QB, full IDP league.

Cautiously optimistic DK can make those mid to late picks late as my weakest spot has been WR (with Woods injured and Allen Robinson and Tyler Boyd borderline unplayable).

That feels like a really light offer for a top 5 WR unless idp makes the picks extremely valuable

Congrats

16 team + IDP would make the picks -less- valuable I would think? Late 1st could be 14th-16th overall... I don't think the added depth of IDP puts enough studs into the draft to balance that out.

Incredibly good trade for you, even if I'm not certain DK is still a top 5 WR... he's definitely top 10.

Easily DK side on this trade. Nice buy low.

Overrated. He's been a letdown for me this year.

Not to say "hey look what I did" but....

The DK owner in my one league made a huge trade and was looking to move DK. I threw out a 2022 1st, 2022 5th, 2023 3rd, and Kaliff Raymond. It got accepted without any counter or contact from the owner. So... DK value seems to be at an all time low. I offered Keenan Allen, 2021 1st (I drafted Javonte Williams instead), and 2022 2nd before draft and got turned down.

Seattle signing Adrian Peterson would be the best fit ever. It'll be great seeing a washed up 36 year old RB smashing into the d-line 20 times a game for 46 yards while DK get 4 targets ... all of which are perimeter jump balls, because apparently Wilson can't complete a crossing route to save his life.

It's legitimately funny to think about because you're exactly right. Would be such a miserable addition to that team.

Dynasty vs redraft.... thinking

Other noteable players that I own on different teams off the top of my head that have been let downs

Ridley, Nuk, DJM, M.Sanders, CEH, Kamara, CMC

Wouldnt say they are "overrated". I would however say that for one reason or another, they've underperformed.

IDP drafts go about 7 rounds and picks have worth through round 4 or so. Round 5 meh, 6 and 7 are mostly whatever.
