Dynasty Auction Trade for Mahomes?

Recommended Posts

In a dynasty auction salary cap league, would you trade Rahid Shaheed ($1) and Xavier Leggette ($3) for Patrick Mahomes ($10)? 

QB situation

  • Current QBs - Daniel Jones, Tua
  • Current WRs -  AJ Brown, D London, Waddle, X Worthy, Shaheed , Leggette
  • RBs - Jacobs, Hubbard, Singletary, Tracy Jr, Brooks, Chase Brown
  • TE - Kelce
     
  • Mahomes team is 0-6 and looking to acquire younger cheaper assets to rebuild.  
  • I've lucked into a 6-0 record (due to the fewest pts being scored against) but want to make a championship run. 
  • Mahomes hasn't been a good fantasy QB recently so hesitant to give up cheap young talent for currently 17th rated QB in our league.    
  • I'm also the only team that is QB needed so potentially bidding against myself. 

Am i crazy for not jumping on this?

Available FA QBs -  Herbert, Rodgers, Stafford, Dalton, Deshaun Watson, Drake Maye

I’m not a fan, but I’d pick up Rodgers and give him a shot now with Adams on the roster.  Keep your young assets.

I would not trade Rashid Shaheed in a dynasty league for a QB, especially at $1

Pick up Drake Maye...

Dynasty is all about youth

I picked up Maye.  He wasn't drafted so his salary is $5 (which has no bearing on this year).  The way our league works is player's salaries rise each year by total number of fantasy points scored.  So if Maybe puts up 150 -200 pts, his price will go up $2 (round up to nearest dollar) and can be kept at $7.   Total Budget to draft a full team is $100

The team who has mahomes also has tyreek hill at $29, which at that price would be hard to keep.   Would you give up Shaheed or Legette or both for Mahomes and Hill (to try to win now?)

If you seriously think that move would put you over the top and will win you the championship this season, then go for it.

If it's just a move to hope it works out, no.

In dynasty, I pretty much never make a big roster move with just the current season in mind, always the 2-3 seasons or so. That has always served me well. It gives a bit more mental clarity on the picture other than just thinking about the next few games.

I don't think Mahomes is gonna have a big fantasy season. Tyreek has QB issues, plus you have Waddle.

I personally would just ride it out with Drake Maye right now.

Shaheed being injured means he should be cheaper next season, Leggette, similar situation. Both should be a bargain next season and both should be getting better as players.

If those guys pan out, it would give you two good, young WRs and a good, young QB for a bargain.

thanks for the sound advice.  I"m a big giants fan and would love to try and get Nabers.   Would you trade Waddle ($14) and Worthy ($6) for Nabers ($15)?

Yes, a rookie stud WR like that, he's as valuable as they come.

Does Hopkins to chiefs move the needle?  mahomes and hill for shaheed and legette is an active offer I just received.

So before I read the available QBs, I would have said yes. Mahomes is a proven commodity and has plenty of top tier years left. While Lagette is still a big unknown on a team in QB purgatory. 
 

but then I see Drake maye and Rodgers available and I’d drop Daniel jones asap and add Maye. How is he available in a dynasty?

if you have another roster spot with shaheed on Ir I’d also add Rodgers
