Cause keepers are locked in at the deadline



Yeah I get that they are locked in, I'm asking why. Why could I not trade my #1 pick for another persons keeper? Or is that just the rule that has been made and I need to move on haha.

Also, if I have 4 good keepers and can only keep 3, what keeps me from trading my 4th player for someone elses draft pick? If I was Okie for example I would trade Sproles for anyones 1st/2nd rd draft pick. Sproles will be off the board in the first 3 picks, might as well let someone else keep him and grab their draft pick.

Because once the deadline hits, a person on has 3 players on their team

Furthermore, I really don't see Sproles falling far. We'll see what shakes out but I would assume he'll be 1-2 best of the remaining RBs I would imagine.


Is he one of your keepers?

I'm still laughing at your "where are you EZE" at 12AM this morning.

EZE works early in the AM and is in bed by 9PM CST.

Let's do it if someone wants H. Nicks

I agree, but I have no RBs as keepers.

My current keepers are Nicks, Bowe and Steve Johnson

Fair enough.

Sproles could fall to you at 4, I don't think it's unreasonable.

Some really good players will be there at the top 5 picks.

Yeah. I know. And I need help bad. That's why I'd want to trade Nicks today as well to get a number 1 back.

That original trade offer is tempting, but I'd really hate to lose #4 overall.

You give me your 1st round pick and McCoy.


I give you Marshawn Lynch.

I'm not so sure he accepted, since a few posts later he said

We need to get him in here to confirm.

I love Nicks but not over my other keepers unfortunately.

Without Manningham, and with Cruz burning safeties over the top, I think Nicks will have monster year.

I'm still stewing on it.

Like I said, if I can move Nicks before tomorrow as well, I want the Sproles trade.

I don't think I can afford to have Sproles, Nicks and Bowe, then not have a pick until #21...

He said "let's do it" until Dan started to try cock block it.

What if I gave you higher pick in return?

I'm really open to anything as long as I can pick sooner than #21.

I think the gamble of waiting to see who falls to #4 may be the best one.

Maybe swap picks later/earlier?

For example, swap first rounders and swap second rounders....

Something like that?

No. I was thinking about that before Dan.

Cam Newton isn't what I was thinking about, though.
