14 team league, thoughts on these moves right up to deadline? I'm 8-3 and 2nd in total points, in good shape heading into playoffs.

Trade 1:
Sent: 2020 1st (8-14th pick, playoff team)
Received: Mark Andrews, 2020 3rd

Trade 2:
Sent: 2020 3rd
Received: Pittsburgh D

Trade 3:
Sent: 2020 1st (6-7th pick), 2020 late 2nd
Received: Allen Robinson

Trade 4 (we agreed upon @8:19 last minute)
Sent: Austin Hooper
Received: Tyler Boyd

I like trade #1, but not crazy about the other three.

First trade is fair value. Not a win IMO.

The other three I agree with Gator. Not a fan.

Trade one is the only one I like. The Hooper trade may be the worst of the bunch.

I agree with everyone else. 1 is fine and the rest are meh.

Arob isn't nearly worth that from an ADP standpoint. Maybe he will be worth it down the road though. i'd rather have one of the RBs or WRs coming out though at 6-7. For sure you overpaid by a 2nd if nothing else.

I like Boyd as a wr3 going forward but not nearly as much as I like Hooper in a 14 team league.

Seems like good value for Andrews, and he gives you a reliable TE starter.

I like the move as a contender. A 3rd is cheap to pay for a top DST that has a pretty good playoff schedule and gets NYJ in Week 16.

A bit of an overpay, as I would think the mid 1st alone would get you Robinson. However, he's a definite upgrade for you at WR.

Not a fan of this one. I think Hooper can / will be back by Week 14. And even if he's not, Boyd is an inconsistent WR4, maybe a flex, with Finley sucking and spreading the targets around. I would've either held Hooper or at least gotten a better player or pick for him.

Overall I graded the moves a C. Trade 1 was good, and Trade 4 was bad. Trades 2 and 3 were okay.

I thought that at first too, but if Burrow ends up in CIN, it will be fine.

In a vacuum I think the trades are meh. But considering you are a legit contender and every single one of these moves help you finish that process out I think they were worth making. You need to go in on winning when you have the chance, and your team isn't completely mortgaged for the future.

Burrow definitely does not mean cin will automatically be fine. Think Trubiski, Goff, Baker, Mariota, etc. Not saying they are bad, but they all still have lots of questions despite being a high drafted qb.

Only the first trade is good. Second is fine if competing. The other two are bad imo.

Entering playoffs now. But love these trades. Currently on a 9 game win streak and Allen Rob and Boyd have juciy schedules.recency bias but these WRs are young and were undervalued... I was going hard for Landry too ... These guys have a lottt of tread left. Woods/Boyd/Arob is a huge high floor trio of WR2 and I'm gooood with that

Like the first....overpay for arob and boyd. Don't know about the defense, guess it depends on scoring.

Like one and two. I think the mid first would be fair for Boyd. I don't like four after this year.
