Sanders/Ridley for Godwin/2021 late 1st

[gabes1919]

12 team ppr sf, both teams involved were playoff teams

Was just offered Godwin/2021 late 1st for Miles Sanders/Ridley. Seems like a good offer but I’m a little hesitant based on my depth and wanted some opinions. It’s start 2 RB and the only other startable RBs I have right now are Chubb and Kamara. I do have 1.07, 1.09, and 1.11 in the rookie draft but it feels like trading away Sanders would put me 1 injury away from disaster. He doesn’t really have any other RBs he could ship back other than possibly Damien Williams (depending on how you feel about him)

I would take the trade as is very quickly

Take Godwin and worry about RB depth later. Plenty of time to address that between now and the season, and you’ll get a better view of the landscape the longer you wait.

my thoughts exactly

[Goddard]

Godwin side pretty easily for me.

Godwin. And a projected late first can become a mid first quite easily which would be a nice bonus.

This is true but unless a team is horrendous (obviously in punt mode), I try to evaluate all my trades as if future 1sts are late. His team is pretty good, injuries can change that but I won’t bank on those.

I did end up accepting this trade. Had a little back and forth to feel out if there was another possible configuration that could net me two players returned this year rather than 1 player and a future but in the end, we settled on the opening offer.

I talk with the guy a lot during drafts and in season and think the trade relationship here was an important factor. I think there’s something to be said about accepting a good offer when it is given from the start and not trying to squeeze every ounce of value just because you can.

I knew this seemed familiar. This is in my league hah. When I saw the trade in my email I was shocked. Gabe, I think you made out like a king. Great snag with Godwin and the 2021 1st.

I am the guy on the other end selling Godwin. I often find myself on the wrong end of public perception on deals, which I take as a sign I’m doing the right thing.

I acquired Godwin for Robby Anderson and my 1st round pick last offseason. I was equally criticized as here for foolishly overpaying.

My thesis below in case anyone is interested - this comes down to being super high on Ridley and Sanders and thinking Godwin is at at an all time high and likely to not produce as well next year.

-I anticipate Bucs moving on from Jameis. I think Jameis is the single best QB other than Mahomes at creating value for his weapons due to aggressiveness and negative game scripts created by turnovers. A switch to Rivers or Brady or Teddy B would be a negative to Godwin’s volume and subsequent production.
-Conversely, I anticipate Ridley having a tremendous upcoming year. Sanu is gone. Hooper is gone. Julio had his lowest aDot of his career last year.
-After Sanu trade prior to getting hurt, Ridley averaged 18 PPR PPG, slightly behind Godwin 19.5 PPG.
-Preliminarily see Godwin as ~WR5 in redraft and Ridley as ~WR10. One tier different.
-I believe Ridley will be a late 2nd round startup pick next offseason.
-they are both so young that I don’t care that Godwin is 2 years younger, so market value being ascribed to that age delta is useless IMO.
- Use that perceived difference in value to get Sanders for a future first, which I see as a great gain on my team that is needing Running Backs.
-Sanders was RB 9 in PPR points per game after the bye. — He has a tremendous situation and showed extremely well as a rookie at age 22.
- I believe Sanders is or will be a late 2nd round startup pick this time next off season.
-I think next offseason all 3 of these guys could have equal value and I would own 2 instead of 1.

Also Gabe is great to deal with - I wish everyone conducted themselves like Gabe!!

I would also note that I sold Ridley last offseason for Gallup and Kirk so these things really do come full circle.

Good Trade I would have taken it in a heart beat even if it did deplete your RB's you should be able to replenish it through the draft picks you have.
