Shady getting traded to a competent team would be the best

Dude's still talented as all hell, so give him the chance to show it.

I'm trying to 3-for-1 Ingram from the Fournette owner with Yeldon and Davis + either Bernard or Lewis. He's probably not that high on Davis, so I'll probably end up bumping that to Tate if he declines.

I didn't realize he was available until 3s ago but I just kneejerk took advantage of my WR upgrade (Kupp) to drop Enunwa for James White

My gut is telling me this was a good pickup, but absolutely the wrong drop since it's literally none of the players I was thinking about earlier

Too late to take it back though!

Funny. I was just coming here to post about doing the same thing, dropping Enunwa for Hines.

I've been trading a few offers, but eventually I realized that while yeah, Enunwa is good, there is just so much depth at WR in the league that he's on that cusp of undroppable but also 0 trade value. Everyone has a couple guys they value more than him.

And I'd been needing to offload WR for more RB stock, so it was just an instant pickup when I saw him.

And uh, yeah if James White's position was WR you would always start him over Enunwa.

I shouldn't be offloading WRs, though. That's my weaker position

My current roster: (Ordered by how much I value them)
RBs: Gurley, Conner, Cook, White, Carson, Shady
WRs: Allen, Jeffrey, Kupp, Baldwin, (Enunwa was here), D. Thomas

I also have a waiver claim in to swap Thomas for Adrian Peterson as I mentioned earlier, but I'm not 100% sure that'll go through because my priority is garbage. On the other hand, writing that out makes the current picture look pretty fucking balanced before Thomas->Peterson goes through. Especially considering my IR slot is currently a fucking kicker (Zuerlein, who I picked up today after he cleared waivers because I have nobody better for that slot) LMAO.

The good news is, especially if I land Peterson, I should have a lot more leverage when it comes to fliping somebody for a WR. The guy I was trying to trade with last week never got back to me on the issue after he said he would, and work-related issues mean I haven't had the chance to talk to him about it this week.

But basically the point is I should've dropped Thomas and just put in a new waiver claim for Peterson <_<

The top performing skill position player available on one of money league's FA is Philip Dorsett, and my other money league isn't much better. I would kill to have the options some of you guys do.

My roommate's in a 12 team league, but their bench size is enormous. Like 9 or 10. The pickins on the waiver wire is probably less than it is here. OTOH, they only play 2 WR, so maybe not.

I legit have no idea if 10 or 12 is more common, but I'm playing 10 with guys who should mostly know the game but still occasionally do questionable things (e.g highly reactive drops, zero trading, somebody different drafting Rodgers in the first round every year)

Low man leagues suck because everyone ends up with star studded teams and skill matters so much less

My money leagues this year are 12 and 16 man

It definitely is

I'm probably going to counter again. I made it clear from the start that the reason I'm trying to trade is to consolidate my team and not have to drop a player to start a DST during the bears bye. But he keeps offering me equal trades of 3-for-3 and I'm like, no, why.

He accepted my counter:

GIVE: Tate/Yeldon/Hines

GET: Ingram/Marvin Jones Jr.

Hot damn am I stoked for that. Tate is going to keep being wonderful but this is awesome for me if Ingram does what people expect him to do.

Zeke/Ingram/Michel/Lewis/Bernard

Hopkins/OBJ/Evans/Davis

Plus Kelce and Bears D

So you upgraded Yeldon to Ingram and swapped Tate for MJJ?

That's so much better for you than the original offer it's silly.

Yeah, I love Tate but I think there is a reasonable chance that his value is at its peak right now. Especially relative to other Detroit receivers (the guy owned Golladay and Jones both). So I figured he might look at upgrading Jones to Tate as a much better move than using Tate to trade with someone else who wasn't already invested in Lions pass catchers.

Hines could have some low RB2 value eventually, and Yeldon can be decent sometimes, but those situations are nowhere near as likely to glean consistent rewards as Ingram's.

Oh yeah, plus the fact of him owning Fournette making Yeldon more valuable. Basically his side was better than it looks because of specific investments he already has.

You also have to add in the fact I spent 45% of my FAAB on Yeldon. I wanted to be damn sure I got him because I figured I would be able to leverage him into a good trade. Turned out to be a good idea.

Hey people in this league

Anyone want to offer me a trade where you gain a player (1 of yours for 2 of mine etc)? I should probably start selling some RBs at some point. Double bye week on my WRs this week made me realize.

My RBs: Ingram, Hunt, Lynch, Collins, Morris, Cohen, Duke Johnson, Latavius Murray

Probably everyone is for sale for the right price

He's not gonna get benched, imo

Yes I have owner bias but they've made it abundantly clear he's gonna keep getting usage consistently

I'm like 90% joking on the benching but still frustrating.

I have Gronk on my 14 team league and going against him in my money league. Tough situation there. Gonna hope he doesn't do too much this game since the Gronk owner in my money league has expressed interest in dealing him.

So in my main league, we added 1 IDP this year, and it can be any position.

My opponent has Khalil Mack and Darius Leonard on his team. Mack is on bye. He's starting Leonard. Leonard is out this week.

I went to bed just after halftime last night

Woke up this morning to find White apparently did jack shit in the second half and the Pats D gave up like 14 more points.

And my opponent has Ebron.

Ugh.

I looked at it earlier. It's actually one of the first, if not straight up the first time someone has traded with me in a Fantasy Football League... And considering I've been fearing for long term, and this trade helps my long term... It's actually really good.

Collins for Buck Allen is the kind of mismatch where I don't like trading it that much, but if he gets hurt it's not any worse than what I have.

like right now there is a 2-day window for "trade reject" time, meaning people could veto it within 2 days

since that 2 day window extends beyond kickoff on sunday, it isn't going to process the trade until monday

but if the league commissioner waives the "reject" period, it should process right away

that is, if the website works in a logical way
