  1. That's a fair point. I suppose I think more in the aggregate, and believe he will be quite productive, but I certainly can't rule out that he can put together a string of stinkers, either. I also value more recent trends vs. past years, but given that it is a re-occuring theme, it is a reasonable expectation.
  2. Appreciate the feedback! I can see it from a few different perspectives now, which helps. Perhaps I'm just a skeptic by nature!
  3. From where I'm sitting, I feel getting both Matt Ryan and Dez Bryant for DeAndre Hopkins alone is a bit of a steal. My argument: Flynn is the top scorer by far in our league. Of course, he will regress back for sure, as I doubt his current production is sustainable. However, I would argue he is currently a high value commodity. Dez Bryant is injured, of course, but is likely to return in the next few weeks (should we believe the most recent news). While it is hard to determine what his chemistry with Dak will be, he still has some inherent value (although admittedly in my opinion is less than the value of Hopkins, of course). I have had DeAndre on my team two of the past three years and love the guy as a fantasy wideout, but so far with Osweiller, he's production has dipped a bit. I'm sure he'll be productive in the long run, but getting both players in return for Hopkins alone still seems unbalanced to me. However, a previous poster provided an argument of it being mutually beneficial to both teams. That's an argument I can buy into (and be convinced of).
  4. I appreciate the reply. To the one owner's credit, he does have Aaron Rodgers and Matt Ryan, so from his end he likely views one as expendable. He also appears to not have an available WR for his matchup this week (historically the owner only makes transactions and waiver moves to fill in an empty spot due to bye weeks). So, it makes sense to acquire a WR through a trade. The other team has no QB at this point, as they had Palmer (only) and you know how that story has gone. I do see the value in it for each team, but thought the value itself was lop-sided. I can see the arguments you are making and see how that could lend some justification to the trade. Perhaps I'm a little biased because I've seen a handful of trades where one person seems to come out at a major advantage. So, I'm on the lookout for that sort of thing (as open-minded as I try to be!).
  5. I respect your opinion, but may I ask as to the specifics as to why you think it's fair? I really would like some insight on what I'm missing. I consider myself open-minded on most trades, and really feel that I'm missing something obvious if most feel it is a fair trade.
  6. A trade was accepted in a league I'm in that just baffles me. One side traded: DeAndre Hopkins Other side traded: Matt Ryan Dez Bryant This is a 12 team PPR league, by the way. Also, slight customization in scoring favors QBs a bit more than in a standard league. I feel this trade is insane and overwhelmingly lopsided. I hop it gets shot down and I put in my vote against it. Thoughts? Am I missing something here?
