gilbertfl6 0 Posted April 13, 2017 I posted in my league that I was interested in moving Gronk – primarily interested in picking up a WR1 but willing to package a multi-player swap but the core to be Gronk and a WR1. I was offered the following trade. The trade – I give Gronk, Decker, 2.06 I receive Keenan Allen, J. Cook, 4.05 It is dynasty PPR, 12 teams, roster 54, Start QB 1 / RB 1-3 / WR 2-5 / TE 1-4 / PK 1 à 9 total offense + 9 defense My roster (primary offense players) QB: Tyrod, Bradford, Bridgewater, Alex Smith RB: Devonta Freeman, Doug Martin, Jalen Richard, Prosise, Jacquizz Rodgers WR: Julio Jones, Willie Snead, Kelvin Benjamin, Decker, Moncrief, Eli Rogers, Perriman TE: Gronk, Hooper, Swoope, Richard Rodger Picks: 1.06, 2.06, 3.06, 5.06, 6.06 His Roster QB: Brees, Carr, Cousins, RG III RB: Jamaal Charles, Dixon, Ervin, Hightower, Dion Lewis, Jeremy Hill, Lynch, Alf Morris WR: Keenan Allen, Cooper, Evans, Demaryius Thomas, Wheaton, Allison TE: Bennett, Cook, Fiedorowicz, Higbee, Miller Picks: 1.09, 2.08, 4.05, 5.05, 5.12, 6.12 I am probably going to pass on the trade but wanted some input. I have Keenan just outside the top 12 in my PPR rankings so not a legit WR1.....plus considerable risk – injury and competition for targets from now that Williams, Benjamin, and Inman have stepped up last year. That busts the intent I had with the trade. My view is that Gronk trade for a back end WR1 would be a one-for-one swap or close to it but with Allen having higher injury risk than Gronk (if that’s possible) and hasn't seen anywhere close to a full season and is outside the top 12 for me. The Decker – Cook piece of the trade is not in my favor and I don’t need Cook. The pick piece of the trade does not happen even if I become convinced to take on the other parts of the trade. The pick part of the trade is a non-starter for me. Wanted to roll this out and get your comments and advice. Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gilbertfl6 0 Posted April 13, 2017 Agree - would you be in the same place if it was Cooper and the picks were out of the picture? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,418 Posted April 13, 2017 I would counter with Cooper and Bennet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gilbertfl6 0 Posted April 15, 2017 Thanks all for your comments. I took a pass on the trade and did not counter but told him that I was looking for a legit WR1. His reply was that Cooper and Evans were not on the table. Appreciate the comments from all of you that replied. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
