Possible Gronk Trade???

Postby kandyman » Wed Mar 07, 2018 4:27 pm

I am in a situation currently where I have Gronk, Evan Engram, and David Njoku. I have faith in Egram and Njoku for my team's future, but I think the window on getting good value for Gronk is quickly closing. We have a 12 team 35 player roster starting 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 2 Off Flex, 3 LB, 1 DL, 1 DB, and 1 Def Flex. 1/2 point ppr and point per tackle. I desperately need running backs, but people are not trading solid running back options. My question is if the following trade offer is worth it for me.

Player B offers Kenyan Drake (post NFL draft if the Dolphins don't draft a quality RB this year) and Player B's 2019 1st round pick which probably leans towards a top 6 pick next year but anything can happen any given season so there are no guarantees of the 1st round pick. Am I crazy to seriously be considering this? Should I be holding out for more value?

My current roster looks like this:

QB: Cam Newton, Jimmy Garoppolo, Mitch Trubisky
RB: Dion Lewis, Alex Collins, Adrian Peterson, Jamaal Charles, Jeremy Hill, J.D. McKissic, Mike Davis, Terrance West
WR: Jarvis Landry, Tyreek Hill, Michael Thomas, Sterling Shephard, Tyler Lockett, Quincy Enunwa, Curtis Samuel, Dede Westbrook
TE: Rob Gronkowski, Evan Engram, David Njoku
LB: C.J. Mosley, Bernardrick McKinney, Justin Houston, Reuben Foster, T.J. Watt, Denzel Perryman
DL: Demarcus Lawrence
DB: Landon Collins, Budda Baker
Team 1 (2021 picks 1.03, 1.10,1.11, 2.11)
QB - Josh Allen, Cam Newton, Taysom Hill
RB - Miles Sanders, D. Swift, J.K. Dobbins
WR - Ceedee Lamb, Jerry Jeudy, Tyreek Hill, Tyler Boyd, C. Ridley, N'Keal Harry, P. Campbell
TE- Njoku, D. Knox, Trautman
LB - E. Kendricks, D. Bush, D. White, I. Simmons
DL - B. Chubb, Nick Bosa
DB - D. James, J. Abram
Team 2 (2020 Picks 1.113.10)
QB - Burrow, D. Jones, Brady, M Ryan
RB - Miles Sanders, T. Cohen, D. Harris, Swift, AJ Dillon
WR - D. Adams, DK Metcalf, Justin Jefferson, N. Harry, Tee Higgins
TE - D. Njoku, TJ Hockenson
LB - Roquan Smith, Jayon Brown, Greenlaw
DL - B. Chubb, C. Young
DB - L. Collins, A. Winfield

Drake and a 2019 1st is light.

I agree it's light, but as someone actively shopping Gronk it's a hell of a lot better than what I've seen. I'd hold and look to trade closer to Week 1.

Don't deal Gronk for this package, as you'll get a little more once he announces he's coming back for 2018.

And he will be coming back for 2018. Don't sweat it.

I don't think it's that bad. I can't see anyone paying more than that for Gronk right now. If you can counter and get more, great.

It's not bad but I'd rather have someone other than Drake as the secondary piece.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I like the trade, but, as others have said, try to get more...Drake, post draft with no competition might be really good next year...he showed alot last year...if the 2019 1st round pick is top 4 (no guarantees, obviously), I would accept but would try for more prior to doing so.

If I held Gronk I'd really wait until the season begins to trade him. His value is lower right now and is bound to shoot up. You could and should get much better than that deal.

I'd do it, even if Gronk sticks it won't be for long.
All my teams suck. And I'm not in your league.

I would not sell Gronk for a 2019 1st + Drake. I'd hold until NE throws more incentives to his 2018 contract, and he announces that he is playing. I'm personally not selling for anything less than 1.03.

Thank you everyone for all the replies. Very helpful. I am leaning towards getting more value if miami doesn't draft an rb this year. If not I am just waiting for belief in gronk playing longer to grow.
