    12 team dynasty PPR, 1.5 PPR for TEs, Start 1 QB, 2 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 2 W/R/T

    My team:

    QB: Kaep, Bradford
    RB: Spiller, Morris, Ball, Rice, Mathews, Moreno, Miller
    WR: Gordon, Cruz, Percy, Nicks, Marlon Brown, Da'Rick, Maclin (IR), Pettis, Quick, Streater, Andre Holmes, Rishard Matthews, Chris Harper
    TE: Clay, Pitta, Housler, Escobar

    2014 1.02, 3.09

    I have quite a few nice players, but only one stud in my opinion. Firstly, should I be looking to upgrade my starting lineup with more "studs"? Assuming I categorize, Calvin, AJG, Julio, Dez, DT, McCoy, Charles, and Graham, as "studs" what from my team would you consider fair for one? Obviously the values on each of these guys are slightly different, and team needs are different, but try to give me some type of general offer that you would consider as "fair" if you were a owner of one of these players. I like Morris, Moreno, and Cruz more than their current values so exclude them if possible. This is not an easy request, so I appreciate any response, as trying to figure out trade values is something I struggle with.

    I sell high on Mathews, maybe try packaging him and the 1.02 for a WR you mentioned above. If that won't fly, maybe Percy and Mathews or Cruz and Mathews? 

    I somehow try to land two moves getting you into a team like:

    Foles or Luck
    Spiller, Rice, Morris, Ball
    Gordon, Dez
    Clay

    Not saying that will be easy, but I've had bigger revamping challenges and pulled them off, it just takes a ton of offer sending. Cruz is a bounce-back candidate, Rice and Ball as well, so don't sell-low on those guys, especially Cruz, who has it in him to be a top 7-12WR still.

    Smitty is spot on. You're in the fortunate position of having the 1.02 this year as well. I know rookies take time to develop, but Sammy Watkins is going to be a stud in all but the worst situation he could possibly land in. If you fail in your attempt to get one of the studs mentioned, you may look at moving up 1 spot to the 1.01. This probably doesn't help you get your stud this year, but it's a nice consolation prize.

    -Chris Ivory will be a top 15RB
    -Kenny Britt finishes outside the top 20WRs

    Thanks guys, I'll start with Mathews + 1.02 and see where that takes me. There is some chance that I get something done with Mathews/1.02, Mathews/Percy, Rice/1.02, and the likes, but if these don't fly how much do you think you would add to these? Is a 3rd guy too much? For example Mathews/1.02/Nicks? Mathews/Percy/Miller? Also as far as the 1.01, I've already talked to the owner a bit. He says he wants to wait until it is much closer to the draft.
