Too much for Dez?

    Have an offer on the table that would send me Dez. I really don't want to post
    my roster, because I know I do NOT have the depth to do the deal. However, if I
    did the deal, I would have Julio/Dez/Cobb/Graham. I'd like opinions on the sheer
    value of this trade.


    Give:
    Ellington/Taylor/JHunter/Eifert/2.04/2.05/2.07

    Get:
    Dez/Rivera/4.12

    A ton of moving pieces and "potential" value to give up,
    but is it still worth it for Dez?

    I'll just put it this way... I would prefer if you didn't do this because I have to compete against you.

    Just worry about depth later

    I've always been a sucker for stud WRs. I love consolidating value into multiple studs and worry about depth later. Worst case scenario, I have multiple studs that everyone wants, so I could trade one away later if I need to. I think I'm going to pull the trigger and worry about the rest later. This leaves me INSANELY thin though.

    Yeah but you're really only 1 starting RB short of a complete lineup so the only weeks that'll hurt are 9-11. The rest you will be pretty stacked.

    Yeah, that was my thought too. The problem is that I have some players that have a history of injuries as well. Oh well. We're getting into the summer season, and that's where a lot of value can be found/made with WW pickups and buying/selling on summer hype. Hopefully I can make a few savvy moves between now and September.

    In case anyone is curious, this is what my roster looks like now. We literally just finished the start-up draft a couple days ago. I have 21 players, but we have 28 man rosters. So when the first WW period begins, I have 7 spots to use for some deep stashes.

    Ryan/Palmer/Hoyer
    Mathews/Ballard/Hunter/Franklin/Cunningham/Wood/Lewis
    Dez/Julio/Cobb/Sanders/Jennings/LaFell/Hill/Kerley
    Graham/Rivera/Robinson
    3.08/4.11

    I was expecting the 1.1?to be in the offer. That's a bunch of crap for a top 10 player.

    Oops, I left out a piece in the deal that I gave. Latavius. I'm assuming by the responses here that Latavius Murray isn't enough to sway someone's opinion of this deal. lol

    I am not as high on Dez as most and I think ypu did well. You gave up some depth but those 2nds are a crap shoot and the other fellas have yet to prove much if anything. Well played fine sir.

    Awesome trade Branch!  Dez was worth much more than you gave up and was the best player in the deal.  You couldn't have asked for a better offer, lol.

    That was a no brainer to get Dez
