OBJ & Cook Deal

Postby j_thunda_ » Sun Aug 05, 2018 10:48 pm

Worked on this trade for weeks. Now feeling a little bit regretful. Was this a boneheaded move??

Gave: D.Cook + L.Murray + 2018 1.10 + 2019 1st + 2020 1st + 2020 3rd + $5 waiver cash

Received: OBJ

Now I need to slide Drake or CMC as my RB2 with Saquon.

Seems like an overpay to me. However, you seem to have plenty of draft capital in the next few years- so not all that bad in the long run.

5 dollars waiver cash? It was already an overpay, but, was that the deal maker? LOL. Such an odd add on at the end. You'll be fine with CMC as your RB2, you just upgraded at WR big time.

I love Diggs, so much up side there. I would hold. But, I do think W. Fuller should be a sell.

NO. Diggs is worth the 1.02. You are not getting enough even if that was just for Diggs, let alone giving up Fuller. Don't worry about the OBJ thing, it was a late 1st, and 2 future firsts one being 2 years out, it's what you have to do sometimes to get a deal done for someone like OBJ.

Keep Diggs. That offer is weak. Not sure why you'd trade those 2 guys for non premium rookie picks.

Your starting lineup.

Wentz
Barkley, CMC
OBJ, Landry, Diggs
Kelce

That's a contender. Plus, all of these guys with the exception of Kelce are 26 or younger. That is a great blend of production and youth as your core. You've got a good thing going. You don't need to trade Diggs for picks.

You only need to start 2 RB, and Drake is a solid 3 for this year. You've got some youth with C. Davis and JuJu, too. You look solid, don't play around too much. Do you still have those 2 firsts next year and a 2020 first in your sig (or have you traded those in that deal?)

If you are really worried about RB depth go get Marshawn Lynch or Crowell. They are fairly cheap and will give solid production this year without costing you a premium pick. Maybe try cashing in on the Carson hype by moving him for Crow, but the point is, your team is pretty set, this is where you should add a depth player at RB that can produce this year, in a 12 team league that roster can compete now, and moving Diggs makes no sense for random picks.

Don’t like the OBJ deal as I think it was an overpay by a 1st. Just think you should have stayed put with Saquon and Cook, mixing in CMC or a WR as your flex. With all that WR youth, I’d have waited to see if Davis, JuJu, Fuller or Godwin became something. As much as OBJ is stud, I just think this deal was unecessarily rich.
Btw.....absolutely hate the Diggs offer. Don’t do it!

If the future firsts traded away in the OBJ deal are late, that will not end up being an overpay at all. The 2020 3rd and waiver cash is meaningless. So, the knowns you dealt away are Cook, Murray and this years 1.10...that's not enough for OBJ. So, two random, future firsts tacked on feels right to me....especially if they are late.

Do not deal Diggs and Fuller away for that.

I think it was a bit of an overpay, but because of your stockpiled picks, I still like the deal for you.
