Traded Michael Thomas...Did I screw up??

Postby psfox2010 » Thu Nov 14, 2019 11:53 pm

Team is listed in the below signature. Currently sitting at 9-1.

Gave: Michael Thomas
Got: Beckham/Joe Mixon

I caved because I couldn't pass on the value of getting, what I think are, 2 studs at a lower price. At the same time, I gave up a top 2 WR who's having an unbelievable season. And, barring a late season bounce back from Beckham/Mixon, I most likely took a decent hit on my chances of winning the title this season.

Thoughts??

I have Thomas and I would think twice about making that deal, BUT... I'm way low on Mixon. If you replace him with an RB I like, then I can see it, and since you like Mixon, I can see it for you. Also, You have a ton of picks; hit on a few of those and you're golden.

Also, the Browns are hitting the easy part of their schedule and I believe they'll be just fine.

You still have a shot at the ship but it would have been better with Thomas I do think.

At the start of the season that’s an easy win. In the offseason I think it’s still a win because I believe in Mixon.

But that definitely is a big hit to your championship chances.

This is Thomas as of now. Long term, time will tell. Beckham and Mixon could both be top 10 players at their position this time next year.

Good value but now you need to use some of those 1sts to get a better win now piece at RB or WR.

Literally all you WRs + Mixon are in the WR/RB2 range with possibilities of putting up duds. You need more consistency going into the playoffs.

Huge win overall but yes your chances this year took a hit. But I probably would have had to have done it to. Thomas has supplanted OBJ but the difference is still small in the dynasty landscape

I like the value a lot. Don't like it if it keeps you from winning it all, but hopefully helps you in the long run.

Hurts you odds a bit this year but that's too much value for me to pass up

We play to win and you are in great position so I'd have definitely held MT - but you probably (hopefully) improved your chances for next year and you might get lucky with OBJ suddenly showing up with easier upcoming schedule. Good luck.

I'd have rather tried to make that trade after the season. I don't think it's horrible, but MT is killing it this year
