Did your team get better or worse overall?

Do you feel trading is an integral part of winning a fantasy football championship?

It all went to shite when Bell went down, followed by Dion Lewis.

Zero, so far, but I do have about 3/4 out for approval now.
I just can't seem to move Palmer or Dalton. I'm trying to package one of them with Blount to upgrade from him. I don't think it's going to work out in my favor tho.

None. Trading players is not a common occurrence in FF.

10 in one league.

4 in the other.

I think overall both teams have gotten better via the trades, and yes, I think winning a championship usually takes at least a few trades.

Its weird, some leagues are very active with trading and some aren't.

I think it just depends on the league.

I feel like you have to trade at some point to fill holes on your roster unless you are the best drafter in the world or get lucky on the waiver wire.

it not guaranteed, you could make a trade and the player shits the bed after the deal is made.

Nothing is guaranteed.

You can't say every trade you've ever made has been money .

Made a few. Dealt Joe Randle for Carson Palmer back when Ben first went down. Dealt Gronk for Lacy and Landry. That one has killed me. And then Ben + Moncrief for Cobb a couple weeks ago. Overall I'm 4-5 and probably gonna miss playoffs

I think we can all agree that an active league that trade's a lot is much more fun.

Not a single trade in my league this year. I think everyone is too skeptical of everyone else.

Made two trades: Lacy, Jarvis, Forsett and for Ingram, Fitzgerald and Blount, and Jordan Reed and Blount for West, James Jones, and Austin Seferian-Jenkins (who I used to drop for a waiver pick up). Will say that they have made my team a lot better, maybe minus losing Forsett.

In my $100, 2QB, PPR league, I have made 4 trades since Le'veon went down.

1: I traded Cutler, Starks & Randle for Bradford & Marshawn
2: I traded Decker for Latavius
3: I traded Flacco & Allen Hurns for Hasselbeck & Brandon Marshall
4: I traded Edelman & Ryan Mathews for Antonio Brown


In my $50, .5PPR league I have made two trades.

1: I traded Moncrief for Demarco (early on)
2: I traded Forsett & Larry Fitz for Antonio Brown

ETA: I feel as if my teams have gotten better through my trades.
