Thought about the offer straight up but figure I’d see if I could snag a 1 for my 2 and if he rejects that, counter without the picks. It’s all hypothetical since he hasn’t accepted the offer but that would give me Hampton as my RB1, Tet & Williams as my WR1 & 2 and Kraft at TE. I could then use the 2 firsts to get my QB & RB2. And all 4 keepers would be 25 or younger.

The only offer I’m considering offering at this point would be Gibbs and my 2nd (#29 overall) for O. Hampton, T. McMillian and his 1st (#11 overall). Trade calculators have me ahead in that deal but he might consider it because he’s got more keeper-worthy players than 4 and Gibbs is an upgrade over Hampton. But after reading the responses, I’m probably going to hold off for now.

It’s 0.5 PPR and with our scoring, Baker was the #12 QB and scored 1 less point on the season than Gibbs. Leaning towards not making anyone an offer, but I’ll see how Mahomes & Kraft progress through the offseason.

The stuff I’ve read said Mahomes is shooting for the start of 2026, which is why he had surgery immediately. I think that might be overly optimistic but I’d consider keeping him if it looks more like a couple of games missed than a couple of months. And yes, we have to keep 4. I’m a huge Kraft fan for the long term…he was in McBride, Bowers territory in terms of points per game when he got hurt.

Baker, but I’m not really considering him as a keeper. And I’m not 100% on keeping Mahomes even if I don’t make a trade…if it gets to be July, and his recovery looks like he’ll start the season on 4 game IR, I probably wouldn’t keep a QB at all. My next best player after Gibbs, Jam. Williams & Kraft, is Addison, but hate that QB situation in Minnesota.

Not Superflex, and we can keep X player as long as we want. And I’d definitely need a young RB1 in the deal, which is why I was looking at the teams with Hampton & C. Brown. We can trade draft picks. To make my team competitive this past season I had to give up my picks in the 3rd - 5th rounds, so wouldn’t mind getting some back. I have my 1st & 2nd’s, and 3 in the 6th.

Same answer if instead of a QB I tried to get a WR like Tet McMillian or Nico Collins, and rolled the dice on getting a decent QB from the draft pool?

Before this past season, I joined an existing 16 team league where you keep 4. I inherited a pretty average roster with the exception of J. Gibbs but was able to make some in-season trades and finished 9-5 and made the semifinals before getting bounced. If I don’t make any trades, my 4 keepers will likely be Gibbs, Jameson Williams, Mahomes & Kraft. Keeping 2 guys coming back from significant injuries worries me, but the rest of my roster really isn’t keeper-worthy. There are 2 owners who have 5 players who are keeper candidates, but we can only keep 4, so they’d need to drop 1 unless they make a 2-for-1 trade. I’m looking at sending out 2 offers unless someone talks me out of it. Either Gibbs for Maye & Hampton, or Gibbs for Burrow & Chase Brown. Looking at the trade from both sides…should I make the offers? If you’re the owner receiving the offer, would you accept/reject?

A guy who I like as the occasional flex or bye week WR fill in is Troy Franklin. I had him on several rosters this year and he was a solid and fairly consistent #2 WR in Denver, and top 25-30 overall. Yet his weekly point projection was almost always low, and the early 2026 rankings I’ve seen so far all have him in the 10-12th round range. And that’s without the rookies figured in yet. Unless Denver makes a splash in WR free agency or drafts one high, I like Franklin as a mid-late round add (again).

Ended up winning 2 of my 4 money leagues and finished 3rd & 4th in the other 2. Winners were C. Williams, Gibbs, Chase Brown, Lamb, AJB, Olave, Goedert, and I always stream D/ST in all leagues. Easily led the league in scoring in that one. And Nix, Jeanty, Swift, J. Chase, McLaurin, McBride, and either P. Washington or C. Watson as my other WR depending on the matchup. Surprised I won that league as I lost Skattebo & G. Wilson to injuries.

Well, there’s 1.

I need C. Williams & J. Jennings combined to outscore Tonges to win my league. ESPN puts it at 96%. The pessimist in me sees Tonges getting 3 TD receptions inside the 5, with a bunch of catches (PPR league) and Williams getting knocked out of the game before halftime.

I play in a 16 team $ league who has a good seeding system IMO. 4 divisions of 4 teams, division winners automatically qualify, and the 4 wildcards are based on points scored. Seeding 1-8 for the playoffs depends totally on season scoring. We had a division winner this year who won a bunch of close/low scoring games and he was the 8 seed.

Playing for the championship in 3 of my 5 $ leagues. Feel good about 1 after yesterday. The other 2 could go either way. 1 of those 2 I felt very good about early, but Gibbs & Lamb both underperformed so not as sure now.
