Ideally... willing to part with Blount or Ware plus a bench WR (Inman, Sanu)... For a top WR and playable RB.

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

I sent you an offer on the lines above. Hope it works for you

I'm doing my best to get rid of Landry in my other league haha, can't put myself through owning him in 2!! Will send ya through something different in a bit hopefully, just waiting to hear back about another trade...

This must be what it's like to be a GM around the trade deadline in the NFL. Except this is far more important

AdamConnor7 · 23-11-2016 03:09PM

I'm also very much open for business (Dillon Panthers). Two players I won't listen to offers for are Brady and Mike Evans. Other than that hit me up. Looking for a RB

gerryfed · 23-11-2016 04:38PM

Does the trade have to be agreed by end of Thurs 24th, or end of Friday 25th would you say??

Trade deadline just says 25th....

Sorry Gerry but Gordon has been a beast for me throughout the season so the only way hes going is if its for an absolute star WR plus a serviceable RB. Thats why I was throwing John Brown into the mix

Don't be sorry haha, we're all trying to get the best deal we can

no interest in John Brown sadly. If I can trade for another solid WR, then we might be able to do a deal closer to what you want ðŸ‘ Will keep ya posted!

Looking to trade Blount for a quality WR if anyone is interested.. RB5 for the season!

Serious love for Doug Martin in this league. He's an RB1/2, please make offers consistent with that. I already have plenty of middle of the road WRs, if you want him offer a WR1.

He's an 'RB1/2' so offer a WR1?... Doesn't feel like a good deal haha. WR1/2 might be fairer

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.

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...

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.

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

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.

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

Well hopefully C-Woke might come back in GB and save you. I know he carried me early on in a few leagues.

It's a possibility alright... would love to wait and see, but trade deadline will have passed by then so just trying to get a contingency plan in order haha

MrKingsley · 24-11-2016 01:47PM

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

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

Of course he is an upgrade on any of my recievers. Im not doubting that for a second.

But if your talking of an upgrade on my team for Gordon (who has failed to reach double figures only once - and that was 9.4 v Denver) then its not even close.

I was putting counter offers back because I thought I really needed a WR but im happy enough with what I have now

gerryfed · 24-11-2016 06:12PM

Looking to flip Hopkins or Moncrief for an RB if anyone is doing any last minute trading...

Or one of the above plus Christine Michael something better....

genericgoon · 06-12-2016 10:50AM

Bracketed out of division lead and wildcard spots. Ooof. Especially when the loss that costs you the within-division record tiebreaker was against the worst team in the division. Doubly so when that loss was a 2nd best score of the week vs best score where you left 70 points on the bench. Them's the breaks in fantasy though.

thomond2006 · 06-12-2016 12:08PM

3-10. I'll get my coat.

phatkev · 06-12-2016 12:15PM

I scraped through to the playoffs, it was a win and in situation. I needed 14.3 points from MNF and managed to come away with 15.6 thanks to a big game from T.Y Hilton

D9Male · 06-12-2016 08:52PM

I am out. Second highest scoring team overall.

Ah well

You're lucky your opponent benched his kicker who got 18 points :P

My team have been scoring for fun... but not worth much now! I'll probably put up a stinker this week!

Anyways... good luck all

Made the playoffs. Happy enough with that. Have been fairly lucky in fairness managing to keep pretty much the same team since the start bar the odd change here and there.

That was me

- picked Prater up off waivers and thought he was in the starting squad - but was on the bench!

Well done to Forte Year old Virgins on winning the league.

Manafanas Steelers came in second and I finished in 3rd with Coonagh Tunas.
