I got offered Lesean McCoy for Demariyus Thomas in my dynasty league.My RB's are Murray, Bradshaw, Bryce Brown & Mathews. My WR's are Thomas, K.Allen, Wallace, Hopkins and Floyd. I am torn on this deal because this is a dynasty league. What do y'all think of this trade?

Risk with Thomas is when Payton leaves, but I do not think I would do that trade. Especially not if it is any ppr scoring.

DT88 is the best WR in the game right now and probably will be for the next couple years.

That's the way I was leaning. Thanks...

This one is tough. On one hand, having both Murray and McCoy as your rbs would be great but you'd have no clear WR1 so I don't think id take that offer

I would stick with dt88. He could be an elite wr for years. Who knows when McCoy slows down? It could be soon.

I would do it. DT88 will always be good, but the fact is his value will decline some whenever Peyton retires. And McCoy is a stud behind an O-Line that is only going to get better. The only downside to McCoy is that the longevity of a WR is much longer than that of an RB.

Which is a huge downside. DT88 is going to have a much better career moving forward than McCoy. People are talking about when Manning retires... When is that going to be? He could easily be playing after McCoy has left the league.

which is probably the amount of time Shady has left. Shady, being a RB is probably more prone to injury, though.

They are the same age. The shelf life of a WR is much longer than a RB. DT88 will still be fantasy relevant long after Shady is nothing more than a flex play. It looks like he is almost there now.
