Team 2 in sig. I had no depth this year with a lot of older players so decided to tear it down and go full rebuild. Made 2 trades...
1st Trade (right after week 2, before Mostert/Thielen kept up their crazy scoring trends...)
I sent: CMC, Kelce, Thielen, Mostert, J Reynolds, 2 3rds, 2 4ths
I received: 2024 1st, 2024 2nd, 2025 1st, 2025 2nd, London, Burks, R. Rice, J. Downs
The team I traded with was bottom 3 (of course now he's top 3, I had no clue Thielen and Mostert would keep this up). His picks next year will probably be late now, but hopeful they will be early in 2025 due to the current age of his roster.
2nd trade (prior to week 6):
I sent: Kupp, 1 4th, 1 5th
I received: 2024 1st, 2024 2nd
The team I traded with is bottom 4, with 2nd fewest points. Hopefully these picks will be very early.
I feel like I sold a little light on both of these but they were the best offers I was receiving, and I was sick of winning games in a rebuild because the players were stuck in my lineups.
I now have 3 1sts and 3 2nds in 2024 (2 early, 1 late), and 2 1sts and 2 2nds in 2025 (hopefully all early). As long as 1-2 of London/Burks/Rice/Downs and 1-2 of the picks work out, I think I will be OK. I also still have Chubb, and hopefully can trade him during the draft next year (fingers crossed).
Thoughts?

Re: 2 trades made for a full rebuild
It's tough to value out long term and I think you may have moved a bit light in the first deal. This will really come down to if London is actually a difference maker in fantasy or just another WR2/3. Verdict is out on that currently. I get that many managers probably push the age narrative with CMC and Kelce but they are both arguably the best two at their positions currently. Again, this needs time and I get the move, but it may be a bit light unless the 1sts/one of the 1sts ends up early.
Deal #2 - another one where I get the age factor, but Kupp is worth more and is already back to his standard 20+ points a game. Hopefully that 1st is early. If not...I think you moved low.

Re: 2 trades made for a full rebuild
I can't argue with any of that... and I agree with everything you said, lol. Unfortunately, it seems most managers in this league aren't interested in older players, even if they are still top tier. This is probably why I was able to get these players a few years ago and took home a couple of titles with them.Gator Sens wrote: ↑Tue Oct 17, 2023 10:59 am It's tough to value out long term and I think you may have moved a bit light in the first deal.

Like you said, only time will tell how this will work out for me. Thanks for the input.
