i suck at fantasy football Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 16 Team Man's league. 3 Keepers. Only 1 Keeper per position. High performance scoring with PPR. My keepers: Brees / Gore / Andre Johnson I also have Bowe, whom I'm trying to trade. Trade Proposal: Give: Gore / Bowe Get: MJD / 1.05 Everyone with me so far? I can't keep Bowe, so I'm trying to upgrade at RB. I'll be happy to keep Gore if things don't pan out, he's a top 10 RB, but since I can't keep Bowe, it seems like a waste not to make a move. The team I'm trying to deal with needs a WR so it seems like it's all good. Thoughts? Getting too little? Giving too much? That should be all the information you need. Just ask if you need something else. Appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other owner will be able to top that. Edited June 19, 2009 by spider321 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i suck at fantasy football Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 I'm guessing that you proposed that trade? I don't know his roster, but don't be surprised if he rejects that. No way do I give that much. i won't be surprised. his WRs: Chambers, C Hixon, D Williams, Roy would you do the deal for his 2nd round pick?

spider321 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 You don't need a pick in return. Just get MJD for Bowe/Gore if you can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i suck at fantasy football Posted June 19, 2009 Author Share Posted June 19, 2009 would you do a deal similar to the above for Westy. he's on the block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Love the MJD trade. That is the essence of a keeper league offseason trade. You improve at little to no cost to your self. If the Gore/Bowe for MJD/1st rounder is on the table, take it. As to the dea lfor his second pick.... yes... his 3rd pick... yes. It is costing you nothing to improve from Gore to MJD in a PPR league, and to boot you are adding a relatively early pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackass Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 +1 A pick is serious icing on the cake. This is how I view the trade: MJD + Roy Williams -for- Gore + Bowe I think I might rather have MJD + RW. As would i. don't think you'll be able to pull that off.

This is how I view the trade: MJD + Roy Williams -for- Gore + Bowe I think I might rather have MJD + RW. I am confused by this. he has Andre Johnson so what will he do with Roy Williams? On to the real question. Like BC said take any draft pick in that trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G.K.Trey Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 I am confused by this. he has Andre Johnson so what will he do with Roy Williams? On to the real question. Like BC said take any draft pick in that trade. I believe Opie's point was from the other owners perspective, as he would essentially be trading MJD and dropping Roy W. ( because u can only keep 3 players) to keep Gore and Bowe. So if its me , I stay with MJD and RW, as I dont think Bowe is as big an upgrade ( and possibly no upgrade) from Roy and that MJD is definitely an upgrade over Gore.

Thankfully, many owners don;t think this way so it is possible to eally make some "fair" on paper trades that benefit you extremely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
