I posted this in the main advice forum as well, but wanted to post here too.
So long story short, I have Hill for $26 but he's on the last year of his contract. Cooks owner is willing to move him. Cooks is $13 and on the last year of his contract. I can extend Cooks to a four year contract for only $23, or I could keep him for less years for less money. But $23 is less than Hill for one year.
I can afford to sign Hill to an extra year, but it would cost me $39.
My question is, do I keep Hill for two years at $39, or do I trade him for Cooks, who I can keep for 4 years at $23, and then that gives me an extra $16 to spend in free agency. Cooks owner also has said that he would be willing to add a piece, a draft pick and/or another player.
My conundrum is that I won the Championship last year, I think I'm the favorite to win it again this year, and I feel like Hill gives me a better chance to win than Cooks.
I know for a fact that KA and AJG will be in free agency, owner has already stated he is cutting them for salary relief. I could see some of the overpriced players that are in the last year of their contract being cut too. That extra $16 would give me some money to either sign CMC to a 4 year deal, or spend on another stud player in FA.
I'm curious what everyone thinks the best move is here? All thoughts are appreciated and welcomed.

Re: Hill for Cooks? Trade Question with Salary Cap
Technically I can keep CMC for two years, even with Hill. So I keep CMC either way, although with Cooks I could extend him to a 4 year deal instead of only 2. Cooks would also give me some extra money to spend in FA to try and get another stud player.millworkguy wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2019 1:31 pm So hill or cooks and cmc, I think I'd take the later two.

Re: Hill for Cooks? Trade Question with Salary Cap
What is your cap? If the other owner extends hill do they do so at $39, meaning someone else has less cap space to bid against you? I like locking down cheap young studs and renting older performers year to year

Re: Hill for Cooks? Trade Question with Salary Cap
In cap leagues, I seek value first. Hill at $39 can't be a value (that's almost 20% of your cap!). Cooks at $23 -- well, you tell me: Is that a great value or a good one? If it's a great value, then I'd make the trade easily.
One other option: Keep Hill, don't extend him. Then bid to re-acquire him in free agency. If he goes for less than $39 -- boom! Even if he goes for more than $39, you're still ahead: You saved $16 in 2019 but "over"-payed by, say, $3 in 2020. And/or use that money elsewhere.
Bottom line: If Cooks represents great value at $23 / year, then it's a slam-dunk. Otherwise, I'd keep Hill on his expiring contract and then assess your options in 2020.
