    League 3.

    I traded
    Brandon Marshall and Vereen
    I got
    Lamaar Miller and Bills

    I had to up my offer of just Marshall for Miller. but I am still okay with this. He wanted McKinnon. I preferred to give him Vereen on a gut call. Not sure how you feel about that.

    My sig will be updated. (I also picked up Tre Mason)

    Also league 1. I am negotiating the following deal

    Receive Andre Ellington, Ari RB from HH to Bench
    Receive Michael Floyd, Ari WR from HH to Bench
    Send Frank Gore, SF RB from RB to HH
    Send Wes Welker, Den WR from FLEX to HH

    It gives me flexibility with the bye weeks. (both have past their bye weeks here) I feel like Floyd is an upgrade with Palmer back but am I nuts?

    Love the first trade. Especially since you still have 2 WR1s. I really don't mind the second. Sanders is going to be a thorn in Welker's side. You upgrade with Floyd. Ellington is an upgrade over Gore, but still an RB2. High end though. But you desperately need someone behind Oliver to give you a boost.

    I just did another trade in my keeper league.

    Trade
    Evans (keeper value 6th rounder next year)
    Hillman (no value)

    for
    Lamar Miller (Keeper value 5th rounder next year)

    but I am not getting any biters on league 1 package of Wes and Gore.

    I tried to package them for Edelman and Ben Tate. but it's a no go

    Upgrade there. Just have to hope that the Dolphins don't look to try and upgrade at running back yet again next year.

    I would have thought Tate would have helped, but I am sure people are afraid of another injury.

    Am really not worried about keeper values to be honest. I am in it to win it every year. my keepers will be Crabtree who has an insane keeper value of 14th rounder because of injuries two year ago. and Luck @ 4th rounder.

    I can only keep 2 players anyway

    But I have his backups. I have Crowell and West. so for me it didn't matter

    I countered with

    Ryan, Gore and Wes
    for
    Foles, Tate and Edelman

    Duh, you'd GET Tate. Well I can kind of see now why it won't go through. Gore isn't going to be used as much this year. Surprise Edelman wasn't enough though.

    86WARD -

    Not sure why anyone would trade for Frank Gore and We Welker...but good on your part for trying to capitalize on their names.

    no takers so far. Killing me.

    I maybe can include Gore in a package but it involves Julio

    I give up
    Olsen, Julio Jones and GOre
    for
    Ben Tate and Juluis Thomas and James Jones.

    What you guys think of that?
    Knowing my league gives bonuses of 5 pts at 100 yards and 10 pts at 200 yards.

    I think tight end is a wash. You upgrade at RB and downgrade WR, which is usually how a good trade works. I like it since you still have Brown as a WR1.

    is the downgrade too steep at WR? and the upgrade too small?
     
  15. Greg Brosh

    Greg Brosh Local Eagles Fan Fantasy Guru

    Gore to Tate? No. The downgrade is a bit steep, but you need running back help due to your depth.
     
  16. LebaneseFF

    No I mean the downgrade from Julio to James Jones!
     
  17. Greg Brosh

    Greg Brosh Local Eagles Fan Fantasy Guru

    I said it's a bit steep, but you do need running back help with the guys you have. Oliver and, hopefully, Hillman are the only 2 guys you have that I like.

    Okay. Maybe I am doing better check this out.

    Julio Jones and Gore
    for
    Arian Foster (Blue too) and Boldin

    is it good?

    killing me with week 10 byes. both my RB's are there. but don't know if I will do better. I might stand pat otherwise

    Jones to Foster is as even as it gets. This is really where the trade is. I don't see why this one wouldn't go through. Although I don't know if he'd part with Boldin. He's been hot.
