HUGE TRADE - Need Help
  • GuinnessIsGoodForYou February 28
    Posts: 73
    Give:
    Andre Ellington
    Doug Martin
    Keenan Allen
    Jimmy Graham
    1.09

    Get:
    Calvin Johnson
    Matt Forte
    Dexter McCluster
    Robert Housler

    This would make my lineup:
    Romo
    AP
    Forte
    Calvin
    Dez
    R Rice/Pierce
    J Thomas

    I am obviously mortgaging all of my future for a shot at the title this and next year. (I realize that McCluster and Housler are just throw-ins)

    Am I giving too much?  Do you think that in a 14-man league, this roster is worth gambling everything on the next 2 years?

    My full roster for those of you on mobile devices:
    14-Team Dynasty - QB, RB, WR, TE, 3Flex
    ROMO - AP, MARTIN, Rice, Ellington, D Brown, Rainey, Pierce, Ogbonaya - DEZ, KEENAN, Hartline, S Rice, D Alexander - GRAHAM, J THOMAS - 1.09, 3.12, 4.12

    Im not even really thinking about Ellington here. I like Martin more than Forte personally. Id just go after CJ here. Allen/Ellington/JT/1.09 for Calvin/pick...something like that if he needs the depth. Id rather start Martin than Forte and Graham than JT.

    I actually do like the win-now mentality and therefore I'm somewhat ok with this deal.  That is a very good roster in a 14-teamer.  That said, I'm concerned about you loading up but relying on Romo.  Any chance of a QB upgrade somewhere in your dealings.  I'm ok with you losing Martin/Allen.  Graham is tough to stomach though but you are getting studs in return and you have Julius Thomas.

    Any chance of Calvin/Forte/McCluster/Housler for Ellington/Martin/Keenan/Julius/1.09/2015 1st?
    TEAM 1 - Dynasty PPR, start 1 QB / 2 RB / 2 WR / 1 TE / 1 FX
    QB - Brees/Luck
    RB - Lynch(Michael,Turbin)/Stacy/Martin/Spiller
    WR - Megatron/Julio/Dez/Keenan/Rueben/Cordarelle
    TE - Graham/Julius

    Yeah - Graham is the hardest piece to lose!  I tried everything with Julius instead of Graham but Graham is the gold nugget which is making him open to this negotiation.

    I'm actually higher on Romo than most this year with Scott Linehan coming to town, but I know what you mean about needing a Rodgers/Brees/Peyton type to lock it up.

    I've never been so nervous about a trade before - this is a HUGE gamble!  HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPP!!!!  ;-)

    Thanks for all the feedback guys.  One of my friends also mentioned that if I suffer any type of injury, my season would be over because I am giving away all my depth and would have to rely on Hartline (HA HA HA).

    I declined it, though I have to wipe the drool off my face from being so close to having a starting lineup of almost all 1st-round dynasty start-up guys!
