licc85 Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) 12 team 0.5 PPR league, passing TDs are 6 points. I get David Johnson and Donte Moncrief (who I'm probably going to drop for Dede Westbrook) He gets: Davante Adams, Russell Wilson, and Dion Lewis. Is this a good trade for me or am I giving up too much? This was an auction draft where I passed up on all of the top guys and ended up with a bunch of depth but no high end RBs. I also have Cam Newton, so losing Russell isn't a big deal. Losing Davante hurts big time, but I really wanted a surefire RB1. My top 3 RBs right now are Royce Freeman, Mark Ingram, and Dion Lewis. My remaining best WRs are Allen Robinson, Robby Anderson, and Emmanuel Sanders. Edited September 5, 2018 by licc85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montana is da Man Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I think you're giving up too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8rattoon Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) Losing Russell won't hurt you too badly, but losing Lewis in a .5PPR may hurt, esp your depth. I'm not sure I would do it.

I'm not sure I would do it. So . . I actually have more depth at RB beyond Lewis. I have Mark Ingram, and Matt Breida as well. This is what I meant when I said I drafted a TON of depth. Nearly everyone except a couple of people spent all their cash on the studs and a couple of us cleaned up with a lot of value picks in the middle and end of the auction. Does that change the calculus at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vodkachop Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 I think it depends whether your league is one that has large starting lineups or small. if it's just 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, TE then the depth is not a help. If you play 3RB, 3WR and a flex then the depth will help you. In general, FF is won with "studs." Whoever gets the best player in any trade usually wins the trade. You have Cam so don't need Wilson. DJ is probably a difference maker, and once Ingram gets back you have two RB1 guys and won't need Lewis too much. So it's DJ for Davante and I'm doing that deal. If DJ has another year like 2016 you could win your league with this trade. Then work the waiver wires and try to find an upgrade at WR over the next several weeks and you have a winner.

cincinnatikid Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 This trade isn't even close for me. You are stealing DJ! Pull the trigger now before the other owner gets wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rstwrt24 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 I always make sure that when I make a trade, i come out with the best player in the trade. I love Adams this year and I like Dion Lewis as well but this is a no brainer for me. I would make this trade in a heartbeat if i were you. DJ is a stud!

League_Champion Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 It's a pretty fair trade. Your giving up a lot but your getting a top 5 RB in return. I would definitely do the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
