Blockbuster Michael Thomas Trade

[DLF_TylerK]

Interesting how the poll likes the Landry side but the comments like the Thomas side. Seems a little rich to me.

That is interesting to me. I do favor the comments over the polls because I know I misread polls sometimes and don't take into account league settings or starting requirements. If I comment, I've definitely read it over closely so it's interesting. Also, in this case, this league is not typical of a "normal" league on here, so I trust comments even more because in a normal 12 team league with 7-8 WR/RB starters, this is the Landry side by a good amount, so I could see people voting that way without thinking it over too much.

Glad it seems like I did a good job here. How much does the fact that we only start 2 RB, 2 WR, and 2 Flex matter? I feel like most 1 QB dynasty leagues start at least 7 RB/WR positions if not 8-9. This league seems to be so stud heavy with so few starters. It makes values weird.

I think this was a pretty good trade for both sides. I’m in a league with the same number of teams and the same starting requirements. When I started out I would’ve never given that much up for one player. I’ve come to learn, especially when it comes to rbs for my league, that’s the price I’m gonna have to pay. It’s all about studs in 10 teamers. For reference, I have 2 offeres on the table for studs. I offered kittle, tevin Coleman, Mitchtrubisky ,2.09, 2 2020 firsts for Barkley. Its the number one dynasty asset. The other offer I received which I’m still debating cuz it’s a lot for a “stud” is 2 2019 firsts, 1 2020 first a 2021 first and a 2020 second for Chubb. I’ve come to realize this is just the price you pay in 10 teasers so I like this trade and would rather have the stud.

That is WAY too much for Chubb

Also 100% agree here. Chubb is not a stud in the same way Thomas is. I would pay at most 3 1sts straight up for Chubb even in my 10 team league and that's probably even too much. I've learned lately to either hold onto draft picks or use them to get the highest end assets.

We saw Thomas' ceiling last year. Not a fan of buying him right now, tbh unless it's at a reasonable discount. this doesn't really seem like one to me but I avoid 10 teamers like the plague.

In a 10 team league it's all about those studs. Anyone would kill for a share of just Nuk, MT or Evans on their team and you now have ALL THREE! You win.
