Hi again Jeff,

Just received a trade offer from the league in my sig

I trade away:

Joique Bell and AJ Green

I get back:

Gio Bernard and Malcolm Floyd

I'm leaning towards saying yes. What do you think?
Click to expand...
I would pass since you are trading two startable players for one. I might feel differently if Gio was not banged up, too
Click to expand...
Thank you for the help Jeff. I thought longer about it and decided to pass as well. The same owner just came back with another offer with a swap of Emmanuel Sanders for Gio. I am also facing this owner this weekend in a pretty big matchup. Would you trade Sanders for Bernard?

not with Gio hurt and he he starts Sanders against you

Hi Jeff-

I'm in 3rd place of 14 teams in a PPR keeper league but I fear that my RB situation is going to catch up to me. Need your help.

QB - Rivers

RB - L Bell, Ball, Mason, Sankey, Hyde, Sims, B Brown

WR - Wallace, Benjamin, Sanu

TE - Graham, Reed

We start QB-2RB-2WR-TE-RB/WR/TE.

I've been rolling with 3 of the 5 WR/TE I have when healthy at my flex. Bell has been carrying my RB corp but there isn't anything else reliable there. Is it time to cut bait on Sankey as a potential keeper? I'd like to hang on to Sims and Hyde but right now neither does me any good. Brown will be droppable in a few weeks I imagine and the jury is still out on Mason. I've hung on to Ball after being outbid on Hillman, hoping he'd get the job back but it doesn't look like it.

Right now I'm offering an package of Sanu/Wallace/Reed plus either Mason/Sankey for an RB2. This should get a Top 10 RB and I would aim very high. Wallace and Sanu are Top 20 WRs. I would target Hillman since you have Ball. I would keep Mason and trade Sankey.

I'm targeting Bradshaw, Hillman, Ingram, McKinnon, Tate. Am I shooting too high or too low? Is Reggie Bush worth a stash, I can get him for cheap probably ( a la Mason/Sankey only) and keep the WR's and TE's. Or is someone like Lynch too much to ask for? Jonas Grey is on waivers but I hate having a NE RB.

I plan on jumping on Michael and Freeman for Brown and/or Mason in a few weeks if they don't pan out to load up on potential keepers.

What would you do/deal?

Loaded question I know, any advice you can throw my way would be awesome.

Thanks!

Kevin

Hi Jeff,

My team is looking good in 2nd place but was wondering if I should make a move. Should I trade my LeSean McCoy for Calvin Johnson? Here is my roster. I'd be left with Ingram/Mckinnon as my RB2 rather than having McCoyRB2/Hopkins(others)WR3.

10 team yahoo standard scoring

QB Andrew Luck

RB DeMarco Murray

RB LeSean McCoy

WR Julio Jones

WR Alshon Jeffrey

WR DeAndre Hopkins

TE Rob Gronkowski

BN Mark Ingram

BN Jerrick Mckinnon

BN Tre Mason

BN Joseph Randle

BN Michael Crabtree

BN Mike Evans

Thanks!!

yes, only if PPR scoring.

Me again, been getting a flurry of trade offers over the past few days :-)

I had an offer from an owner for Hillman, Andre Johnson, Alshon Jeffrey, and a 4th rounder for Vincent Jackson, Randall Cobb, Shane Vereen, and my 12th (17 rounds total in our draft).

I turned that down because I still believe I have a shot at the playoffs (we play by division and I am just one game back off the lead). He's still like to try and make some sort of deal with the pieces involved. Since it is a three keepers league I was thinking of offering the following

A. Jeffrey for R. Cobb, straight up.

Do you think from that stand point this would be a fair trade for both parties? To be honest I think I am getting the better half of the deal. Thanks as always!
Click to expand...
they are close, but keep in mind that cobb is a free agent after the season and jeffrey played through injury the first half of the season (not to mention cutler going in the tank). i expect jeffery to get it together soon.

Hi Jeff, trade question--

8 team (mid-season) redraft 1PPR standard TDs. Free agents fairly deep (but no studs). Playoffs weeks 15-16. Record 0-1

Starting lineup requires:

1 RB

1 WR

2 RB/WR flex

My roster:

QBs A. Luck, M. Ryan

RBs R. Hillman, C. Ivory

WRs D. Bryant, A. Jeffery, AJ Green, J. Gordon, R. Randle, M. Sanu

TEs J. Reed, D. Walker

Trade offered: I get Andre Ellington RB and Carlos Hyde RB and I give AJ Green WR and R. Hillman RB

I'm scared of Green's toe injury, I'm stocked at WR and can go 1 RB / 3 WR. I cannot start 4 WRs if Gordon comes back strong. I also can't pull any trade to upgrade TE.

Do I pull the trigger to upgrade my RB1 (Hillman)? Thanks

no way. hold tight. bad deal for you in 8-team league

i would hold floyd unless needed as a starter. with only three on roster the waiver wire might have decent options .... i would go with baldwin over denard for rest of season. just try to avoid rbs on bad teams--too unpredictable

 
i got FOLSE (out from 6 to 8 weeks) and RUSSELL

other available QB

ROMO,G III,HOYER,BRIDGEWATER

what should i do here

playoff starts at week 14

I'm 3-6 in my sig PPR league and I think it's safe to say I am not making the playoffs. I am planning on keeping Green, Jeffery, and L. Bell from my league below. I am trying to sell of players for draft picks. Received an offer for a 3rd rd pick for Hillman. Would you consider that fair value in a 3 keepers league or do you think I could get more for him. Thanks Jeff!

yes. That is fair enough. He might be worth more, but I doubt you get more. Also look at deals giving you just a one or two round upgrade as you liquidate

yes. Daniels is ranked highly by FBG this week

 
Jeff,

Have lots of depth at WR and the McCoy owner wants some of it. I can get McCoy for Evans/Beckham and a 2015 1st which will be in the 5-7 range. I am not a fan of this deal as Evans IMO will be a future top 10 WR for years to come. I have 2 good RB's and a nice selection of players to pick from for the flex. We started talks with Beckham, Arob, a first and Harvin but I didn't want to sell 3 WR's as my depth has been tested with AJ and Calvin's injuries, Allen's slow start. What would you offer up for McCoy? I have 4 1sts next year with one most likely being 1.1 so I can reload with Gurley or Gordon. Thoughts?

 
Hi, Jeff.

I need to make up the points I've lost this week from the stinker put up by the Bengals. I started Green AND Sanu for a total of 9 friggin' points :-(

The rest of my lineup is in my sig, but I think I need to go for a home run at my Flex position. Choices are Fitzgerald, MBryant or ODBjr. Who do you think has the best chance at putting up the most points in PPR?

Obviously, Fitz and Bryant are facing more favorable defenses, but could that mean they'll run the ball more and ODB could be more valuable as the NYG could have to throw all night against SEA?

Thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

 
Hi Jeff,

I have the following 4 WR's in a .5PPR where I can only start 3 (no flex). I'm looking to move one of the following to make an upgrade at TE or RB.

Dez Bryant

Jordy Nelson

Odell Beckham Jr.

Josh Gordon

My thinking is that Gordon and Beckham don't hold the trade value of Bryant and Nelson, though I expect them to put up comparable numbers down the stretch. That leads me to think I should move Bryant or Nelson. Who would you suggest shopping and why?

This is a redraft league, full team in my sig.

Thanks!

We only have four bench spots in a PPR, bonus for long TD league. 12 teams, return yards as well

Start QB RB WR TE 2 Flex, K,DST

QB Rodgers

WR D Thomas

RB J. HILL

FLEX - Beckham

Flex - Garcon

TE Graham

Bailey

49ers

Bench. - Gordon, j bell, j McKinnon, Harvin

Do I drop any RB on my bench or starting lineup for Anderson, S Jackson, Gore, Wayne, Crabtree, Sankey. Patterson.

Do I drop anyone for a kicker to save Bailey or drop Bailey.

Basically looking to construct the best potential playoff lineup. McKinnon losing touches to Asiata and Ap coming back?

I'd move Gordon as many think he will be a top 5 WR, and you might be able to get top 10 value for him. there is no guarantee he will put up numbers like in 2013

drop mckinnon for a kicker, then drop the kicker for a rb ... should be good at wr in meantime

 
hello, first time posting in your thread man. great advice every week from you man.

heres is my question;

pick 2 wr, 1flex:

  • T.Y (vs NE)
  • Nelson (vs PHI)
  • E.Sanders (@STL)
  • M.Bryant (@TEN)
  • Beckham Jr. (vs SF)
  • J.Bell (@ARI)
as of right now i have: QB: Peyton RB:J.Hill, FJax (Murray on a bye) TE: Julius.

any advice you can give i would greatly appreciate it.!!

Edit: Also not sure what to think of Freddie Jax this week, should i go the safer route and play J.Bell as RB2 over Freddie this week? only was in for ~30% of the snaps last week.

I would just go with Sanchez over Cutler ... seems safer. Would go with HOU defense and hope Watt has a big game.
