I would not, but I look at Ridley as a borderline top 5 WR. Big big Ridley guy obviously.

I like Ridley a lot, but I think that’s a mighty solid offer for him in SF. I’d take Aiyuk/1.05/1.10 here.

He was a top 5 WR in PPR this year, with Julio. No doubt in my mind that he's a top 5 WR going forward.

I thought I was a huge Ridley fan.

I would definitely consider it in one of my 1 QB leagues.

I think you've got to take it for a SF team with less than ideal depth. Actually comes off as a bit of a no-brainer. You're going to get no worse than the 3rd QB, Najee or Etienne, or Chase. Any one of those alone could become more valuable than Ridley down the line.

Aiyuk averaged 3 less PPG than Ridley last year. I think I'd take the 2 firsts and pick up some depth.
Team 1: 12 team, PPR
1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1Flex

Mahomes, Lawrence
Najee, Swift, Javonte, Jamaal W, Murray
DK, DJM, Juju, Jameson, Gallup, Van
Pitts, Friermuth
1.01, 1.04, 1.11, 1.12, 3.10, 2 firsts next year

Team 2: 12 Team, SF TEP (1.5 PPR)
1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 2Flex, 1 SF

Mahomes, Burrow, Cousins, Rudolph
CEH, Swift, Gibson, Jacobs, Mattison, Scott, McFarland
DK, AJB, Ridley, McLaurin, Kupp, Landry, Mims, Hamler, Miller, Johnson, Robinson
Andrews, H. Henry, Sternberger, Alie-Cox, Herndon

Same as Team 2
Watson, Burrow, Lance, Z. Wilson
Pollard, Mattison
Chase, D. Smith, Boyd, Hardman, E. Moore, Cephus, A. Rodgers, Harry, Boykin, A. Tate, Miller
Hockenson, Thomas, Albert O, Njoku
3 additional firsts

Same as Team 2
TLaw, Burrow, Watson, Darnold
CEH, Gus, Cohen
Juju, Chark, Shenault, Boyd, Landry, Renfrow, Robinson,
Engram, Kmet, Firkser, Schultz, Arnold, Herndon
5 additional firsts

That's a crazy overpay for Ridley, in my book. In SF, there's an argument for 1.05 over Ridley, if you land a QB drafted in the top-10..

Wow as a Ridley owner that would be a tempting offer!

Would probably take it, though no-one would ever make such an offer in my league. For the OP, losing Ridley would hurt but the return seems more than fair.
"Marathon Square" - 16 team full PPR league with 24 player roster. Keep 16 per year indefinitely, draft 8. Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Team DST
QB: Jordan Love, Deshaun Watson
RB: Travis Etienne, Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams, Kendre Miller, Jaleel McLaughlin, Sean Tucker, Deuce Vaughn
WR: A.J. Brown, Garrett Wilson, Tee Higgins, Calvin Ridley, Michael Wilson, Kendrick Bourne, Tutu Atwell, Allen Lazard, Isaiah Hodgins, Justin Shorter
TE: T.J. Hockenson, Cole Kmet, Kylen Granson
K: Didn't make the playoffs in 2023 :cry: , and don't usually hold one in the offseason
Team DST: Cowboys, Lions

Picks:
2024: All my picks except 3rd rounder

Disclaimer: My one and only Championship in this league was way back in 2011. Therefore, take my replies with the appropriate grain of salt. :lol:
