jnall1 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Hello, I currently play in a 14 team standard league with standard scoring (4pts passing TD, 6pts all other TDs)- no keepers....not sure if that matters.... I have the overall #4 pick, and have been offered this trade: I receive: 3rd round (#39 overall) and 6th round (#74 overall) I give up: 4th round (#53 overall) and 5th round (#60 overall) Should I make this trade?

BearBroncos Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I ssume that means you retain your current 3rd round and well as the overall 39th? Also, is this a redraft and or a snake draft? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I would then have 2 3rd-rounders. This is a redraft where all players are back in the pool and a snake draft..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delusions of grandeur Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 (edited) IMO, this is a no-brainer then... You're basically moving up 14 spots from your 4th, and only losing the same amount (14 spots) from your fifth. Because higher picks are always worth more than lower round picks, you are definitely getting a good deal by only dropping back an equal amount of spots in return.

BearBroncos Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Agreed with DoG. You have a large gap between 3 and 6 but what you could get with those 2 3rd round picks is well worth the wate in round 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onionring9 Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 I'd take the trade as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnall1 Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Ok I accepted that trade.....now here is my next thought: Allow one of the players towards the end of the draft (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14) slot to move up. So I was offering the #4 pick for their first rounder....now what should I request as well? I now have the: 4 25 32 39 74 81 88 and so on... which is no 4th or no 5th rounder Should I offer, for example the #4 and #81 pick for the #9 and #37? Do you think that is totally unfair/should I target their 2nd round pick, or what? Sorry about the questions, this is just my first year trading draft picks.

Picking from the 4th is one of my favorite drafts spots this year, because you land one of the top 4 RB, and still have an early enough 2nd rounder to pick up a potential top WR or BPA. I wouldn't push your luck by going around asking for more high picks, when you should already have a leg up on the league with those picks. JMO though, since if you can pull off another great deal, I guess I can't tell you not to, but I just kind of feel like it's bad form, unless you truly don't value the 4th pick that much.

Thanks very much.....im not sure what I'd be able to get, but I was thinking about flopping the #4 and #9 spot, and then asking for his 3rd round and giving up one of my 6ths. Would you do that trade (from my point of view) or just forget about it and stay put? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnall1 Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Or how about this? I give #4, #39, and #109 I get #9, #20, and #37 It would give me 1 first, 2 seconds, 2 thirds, and 2 sixths Would you take that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearBroncos Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 The +19 move up is nice into the second for sure but that drop of 5 slots in the first is a killer. You have 2 threes now, I wouldn't damage you position in the first. Just my two cents though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
