I want to thank you guys for all the input. donvaughn, I don't criticize you for your stance either. I think I may be the only other 1 that felt somewhat the way you do here. I took the deal though, RR/AJ/Colston for essentially Hilton/2nd was too much value to pass up. Here is my reasoning for even questioning the deal.
This league (much like many dynasty leagues), has a trade market that is dominated by youth. By taking on all these older players I am somewhat tying my hands when it comes to doing some offseason trades. Once the season is over, nobody wants guys like AJ/Colston/RR etc. It's all about the rookies and the next big thing. This is concerning to me because I am a Trade-aholic. I can probably move these players, but it won't be until next season starts, and I have to hope they produce. Value is value though, so that's why I took the deal in the end. I have to be a bit concerned about how much age my roster now has in the fantasy world (Peyton/Lynch/RR/AJ/Colston/Gates). A couple years ago I would salivate over that roster, but things change. I feel I need to sell off this team ASAP when next season rolls around. I worry that I'll be in the hunt again next year though and I'll end up holding for too long and all their value will evaporate. That's a long ways away though, and you never know when a franchise changing trade will land in your lap.

JRMRRT said:Go get Hopkins and Stills in trade...That would make hanging onto AJ and Colston easier even-though Colston doesn't do much for me here. It was all about getting Rice and Andre. I have Andre and Fitz in my main league and I already own Floyd and will try to get Hopkins this off-season so having those old guys wont matter to me.
