In general, would be willing to part with Hopkins, Moncrief, maybe Cooks for players of similar value, preferably a WR... And would be willing to part with Sanu, Inman, Green as part of any 2 for 1 trade scenario Please don't send me through any D.Johnson trade offers unless it includes your first born child

genericgoon wrote: » On average it is harder to find replacement level RB help than WR help. The 2:3 RB:WR ratio in this league makes it slightly more balanced but I would still rate RB over WR unless you're going into the very top of the WR tree. But in general if you want a player you are usually going to have to give up more unless you believe the other team needs help due to injury, imbalanced roster etc.
gerryfed wrote: » You're still talking about an injury prone RB, who hasn't topped 10.6 points on the season, and is playing in a pass heavy team with no defence.... Good player clearly, but RB1 talk is a bit much. Plus you have two actually RB1's in McCoy and Murray so it's not like he's a starter for you, therefore loses value. Plus free agents at both RB and WR are pretty much a dumpster fire so hard to say one position is more valuable in my eyes...
genericgoon wrote: » Definitely fair but Martin has some track record/name value and all his back-ups are on IR, though Sims may be back in 1-3 weeks. He's only an RB1/2 due to this being a 16 man league tbh. RB also tends to have a higher attrition rate so having decent back-ups is more valuable. Honestly, its more a case where I have plenty of below average to above average WR depth and thus don't really have interest in increasing my weekly selection headaches there. Thus the statement that I only want WRs who will be no-brainer decisions going forward.
gerryfed wrote: » Cooks is WR8 on the season... easily more valuable. Moncriefs season has actually gone pretty much identically to Martin's haha, that's why I felt he was more in that ball park. Realistically, you're probably not going to play Martin, whereas someone like Moncrief/Hopkins could actually beat out one of your starting WRs. I would start him over Sanders(no tds), Boyd(rookie hit n hope), Jones (done nothing in weeks) and Funchess... That's just me thinking out loud though... I have extra wrs and you have extra rbs in theory so thought i'd send through a few ideas
genericgoon wrote: » Cooks is great on average but has one of the highest variances of an elite WR. As someone who drafted DeSean Jackson a lot last year, I am wary of those types. But in terms of value, you are right. Moncrief would have been ideal a week ago (actually traded for him in another league though I have now moved him on in a mega-deal). Unfortunately, Luck is now in the concussion protocol and Moncrief's hamstring is playing up, though even without that he is part of 3-way competition with Hilton and Dorsett. Honestly, your offers have been fair just not enough that I wanted to push the button. You can blame a combination of RB hoarding (RB flex being a default digs deep) and loss aversion tendencies.
gerryfed wrote: » I either added an injured Moncrief off waivers, or traded for him in 5 of my 6 leagues haha! Think that's why I'm OK with parting with him :P Dorsett has had 50 yards max in the last 6 weeks... but yeah TY is obviously a beast. Moncrief is a great redzone target though. My team was pretty set.... until I traded Blount away, thinking that I had a seperate RB1 trade done and dusted... counted my chickens before they hatched I guess! Ware is a good RB2 in fairness... but bit more backup would be nice! Yeah I must say I'm missing the RB/WR flex spot

MrKingsley wrote: » I ended up holding onto Gordon based on the logic of cooks above. When he hits hes a monster but its just too infrequent. Wares numbers are similar in that regard. 3 monster weeks but beyond that hes in the 6-8 points ballpark. Im after picking up Goodwin off waivers so my team is set I think. Dak is still on the trading block for any QB needy teams though
gerryfed wrote: » Cooks double digit games - 5/10 (two of which were over 23 points) Goodwin, Thielen, Roberts & Brown combines - 7/36 People need to stop acting like Cooks isn't a considerable upgrade on the majority of WR's out there haha
