last year without abdullah they split carries with riddick and zenner, so i imagine thats what would happen again.

Standard league. Trying to get an rb for Evans or Gronk.

Gurley, Devonta, Marshawn?

They have both Zenner and Washington to fill in for Abdullah, right?

Unless Marshawn is being thrown in on top of something else, he should not be a 1:1 target at all.

Cool, so that assessment seems to be pretty spot on wrt Riddick. Not a very high ceiling handcuff to hold onto but has "some" floor.

One of these things is not like the others.

I think Freeman is a good target given his bye is done and he plays NO twice in the playoffs, you're probably gonna have to throw something extra in though.

Thanks, rather give gronk or Evans?

Depends on your roster, but I think Evans has more perceived value at this point given Gronk just missed a game with an injury so he's prob more likely to give you a shot at Freeman.

Now that Ryan's bye week is out of the way, should I look to move Smith? Or maybe the other way around? There are a lot of Chiefs fans in my league, maybe I could get an RB2 or WR3?

Also PPR, I have Ajayi, Ellington and AJones. Who is more reliable this week? In the future? Ellington can't keep this up forever, right? And Ajayi can't be this bad forever?

4-1 in first place in points and standings, non PPR 10 team, 2WR,2RB,2WRT league.

I have a pretty deep team and don't need a trade, but it's week 6 and not having a trade yet is very out of chracter for me.

So a guy who is near the bottom and has had some bad luck with injuries, has Evans,

I am thinking of offering TY Hilton, Davante Adams and Derrick Henry (all 3 would start for him) for his Mike Evans and 2 guys to cut. (I need to cut one for a kicker anyways)

My team is:
Winston
Brown, Hilton, Davante Adams, Fuller, Martavis Bryant
Hunt, Freeman, Gallman, Cohen, Coleman, Ellington, ADP, Henry
Austin Sefarian Jenkins

Starters are bold, with flex one of the underlined usually, Thoughts?

Am I overpaying since TY has looked good and if Luck comes back will look very good?
Will have to cut ellington for a kicker this week, in case that matters.

I would try to move Smith if you can get something reasonable. Typically foir a guy like Smith I would package up Smith with someone like say Ajayi and try for a Freeman sort of guy?

In my non-PPR, I am going to cut Ellington for a kicker. I recognize he is catching a lot, but Ajayi has to have more upside than Ellington, doesn't he?

1.25 PPR 2RB 1 flex (Pretty stacked at WR for flex spot.)

Roster:

Shady
Buck Allen
McKinnon
Smallwood
Riddick

Think I have them ranked correctly ROS and Theo gets dropped if I need a roster spot. Anybody drop him today for Alf or DMC ? Just in case...

The thing is ADP is pretty 1 dimensional at this point and the Cards suck and are likely to be behind and throwing a lot. Oh, and their line sucks too so Carson won't have much time..

This is kind of a follow up to my Riddick question. I'd like to beef up at RB.
- 12 team, standard, and I'm current tied for first at 5-0.

I would like to target Mixon, and was thinking of using the package of Thielen + Watson or Brees to shop around.
Mixon owner is quite weak at WR, but has Stafford. Not sure a QB is of much value to him...

Would Thielen + one of the QBs I have for Mixon be fair value in a quasi-vacuum? I'm trying to gauge what kind of offers I can reasonably make with that package. Or if throwing in Riddick would help in any way.

Here's the roster:

So thankful for the multiple times I tried to trade Hopkins for Cooper or Cooks and was turned down in my PPR league earlier this season.

Thanks for this. The only likely dance partner is someone who is starting Stewart and Peterson this week and a bench full of byes. I am trying to get Shady and am prepared to eat his bye week.

Thielen + Brees/Watson would be an overpay for Mixon imo, but I doubt Thielen alone gets it done. If you're intent on moving Thielen + QB I think you'd want to target a more upmarket RB2.

I agree with euro. I'd aim way higher than Mixon.
I doubt Riddick is worth anything at all in trade in standard leagues. He doesn't even have that much value in PPR at the moment

is this a new thing where everyone feels the need to trade just for the sake of making a trade

^^obviously a terrible attitude but you should always be looking for opportunities to extract value

Getting after the OBJ/Cooks/Cooper/Ajayi/David Johnson owners of the world is always gonna be profitable

I find trading to easily be my biggest weakness in FF. Mostly because I'm not ready to invest the time tbh.

This...it's time consuming (for me at least) to find a maybe reasonable trade offer, and then you get counter offers like Brees/Eifert for Julio/Kamara and you realize that trading is not worth the effort.

Definitely didn't bring up that trade for the hell of it. I have a glaring hole in RB quality and very good WR plus Brees and Watson. That's a lot of value sitting there unused to not make an effort... time permitting

There is so much value in trading. I try to send 5ish trades at a time (usually all to different teams).

If your league is on ESPN and you aren't using the roster tab to look at everyone's team and control+F searching by position you should try it. Search "RB" or "WR" on each team & it highlights all of what you are searching for which helps you visualize how many at each position another team has and of they have a hole.

Yes, I am that annoying guy that sends you too many trades and usually rips off some other person in our league.

Assuming a healthy Kelce and Gronk, where do we rank Engram in PPR ROS now?

Gronk
Kelce/Ertz
Engram/Graham/Brate/Delanie

Am I being overly optimistic? The target volume he's going to see plus all the garbage time? I'd think we'd see 8/77/1 an awful lot
