Current roster: 12 team, 1 PPR

QB- Carr, Bortles

RB- McFadden, West, Riddick, Andrews, Hill

WR- Cooper, Beckham, J. Matthews, Crowder

TE- Kelce

I offered Beckham, Hill, Matthews for M. Bryant and Ivory

He countered with Hyde, Blount, Bryant for Beckham and Hill

I'm desperate for a playable option at flex each week because Matthews has been lukewarm shite. Would you make this trade, am I coming out any better here? I think Blount is an upgrade over Hill and Bryant and Beckham are probably closer ROS than most think.

* I'm well aware my team sucks and I probably won't win the league, when your second round pick ends up being a second string tailback and your first round pick is going to get you 7 or 30 a week, it's gonna be a bad time. I only have to finish 6th to make the playoffs though and I'm at 7th right now

I wouldn't do either to be honest

The Pats ran the ball 5 times last week, and Dion Lewis should be back this week. Wouldn't touch that backfield. As bad as Hill has been, I'd still take him over Hyde.

Meh, Lewis and Blount put up a pile of points a few weeks ago. Still feel like both of those guys have a carved out role, whereas Hill is merely there to give gio a breather at this point. Moral of the story, Jordan Matthews is a fricking bum that I just can't start anymore, and would anyone really be surprised if Bryant out scores Beckham moving forward? He's catching touchdowns from Vick and Jones for God's sake

I want to do this, but at the same time I hate accepting trade offers

I think you are selling low Hill and Beckham.

I see Hill getting more work coming off the bye as the weather cools and that two fumble game moves further in the rear view mirror. I wouldn't ever trust Blount to get consistent work, plus he catches zero passes. Hyde is just on a dreadful team.

I don't know if I would be surprised if Bryant outscores Beckham, but I wouldn't give it much more than a 20% chance of happening. And Matthews is frustrating, but he still is their best receiver and should continue to get targets.

You're basically buying on Bryant at his highest value and selling on Beckham's lowest. Just not good value for you, imo

Looks like this other bro said the same thing

But at the end of the day this is your team. It sounds like you want to do this trade, so you should do it. Like I said, I think this trade is a mistake, but I'm far from infallible.

How? He hasn't played a snap with a serviceable QB this year. Dude has 11 touchdowns in 12 games

So you would be okay moving forward with Martavis Bryant as your WR1 in a PPR league?

I'm OK with Cooper as my WR1, considering he's a better football player than Odell Beckham and is already averaging the same as Beckham per week, and doesn't have a bye in front of him

Probably going to counter. I desperately want Bryant but Hyde's foot worries me
