Offer to get AJ Green/Big Ben for Hopkins/Floyd/1st+2nd

Postby Billy McFred » Thu Jan 08, 2015 4:01 am

12 team, start 1 QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1FLEX.

I'm giving a lot but i'm also getting a lot too. I like Hopkins but imo his ceiling is well below Green. It would also solve my QB problem (I only have RGIII). Something tells me it's a bit too much for more or less just AJ Green but it would give me a sweet WR's corps of Dez, Julio and AJ.

Should I counter by not including my 1st round pick?

I give:
Hopkins
Floyd
Latimer
1st + 2nd rounders (4th overall pick + 17th overall pick)

I get:
AJ Green
Ben Roethlisberger
5th + 6th rd picks
12 team, 0.5 PPR, 18 keeper, 25 roster spot, 1QB, 2RB, 3WR, 1TE, 1FLEX
Notable Draft Picks: 1.04, 1.06

QB - Big Ben, RGIII
RB - Hyde, Latavius Murray, Gio Bernard, Bryce Brown
WR - Dez Bryant, Julio Jones, A.J. Green, Allen Robinson, Charles Johnson, Stedman Bailey, Justin Hunter, Marvin Jones, Marquess Wilson
TE - Eifert, ASJ, Amaro

Definitely an overpay by a decent amount but if you have the depth and Ben will make you compete this year I don't think it's the worst move in the world.

I'd say take out the 1.4 and you come out ahead, but likely the green owner isn't doing it without the first.

As far as value goes, I think it's a slight overpay. Taking out the 2nd would help.

If you have so much depth that you're trading away a bench WR for AJG, I like it for you. If you're trading away two starters to get Green, leaving you with a big hole to fill, I'm not so sure I like it.

Hopkins is my WR3, and the Floyd/Allen Robinson/Justin Hunter if any of those guys is actually good next season would likely be my flex.

Ok after a little negotiation I offered him this and he said he will accept if i'm still up for it. I feel like this is a good deal. I like Hopkins but there is no guarantee what he will be, same with Floyd and Latimer. Green is good and I feel like Big Ben with Brown, Bryant, and Wheaton can replicate this season next year. What do you guys think.

Give
Hopkins, Floyd, Latimer, 2nd and 3rd rnd picks

To Get
Big Ben, Green, 5th and 6th rnd picks.

My starting WR's would be Dez, Julio and AJ

Love this. You get to keep your 1.04, and you get Green. I'd accept.

Thanks everyone for the advice, i accepted. Now to figure out how to fix my RB situation, might look to move my 1.06 pick for a RB.
