Only league I'm in though so I take it seriously. Let the trade through because you don't have a rule against it, and before you do the league next year, institute either a trade deadline, or a rule that teams eliminated from playoff contention can't trade with teams that are still in playoff contention. Or both.

Because redraft trades just weren't enough for me anymore, pulled off a pretty good double trade in my salary cap dynasty league. Trade 1: I give: Jordan Howard ($130), Phillip Lindsay ($1), 2019 3rd Round Pick (Mid-High) I get: Alvin Kamara ($200) Trade 2: I give: David Johnson ($205) I get: JuJu Smith-Scheuster ($80) & 2019 3rd Round Pick (Mid-Low) Essentially, I needed the cap space to roster Kamara cause I only had $25 free. Turned David Johnson into a high dynasty asset in JuJu for less than half the price ($80 vs. $205) as well. Cut bait on Jordan Howard and the Cardinals offense. DJ will do well the rest of the season. But, if I'm gonna allocate 20% of my cap space to a player, it better be Gurley or Kamara. So, I'm happy. Currently considering turning TY Hilton into a 2019 1st Round Pick + my pick of DJ Moore, Anthony Miller, or Christian Kirk. But, don't know how to weigh that trade. quote:12 Team - 4-5 record - 25 man rosters (+3 IR, 3 Taxi) - 0.5 PPR, 0.5 1st Down, TE Premium - (1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 2 Flex, 1 Super Flex) - Salary Cap ($1000 per team) Side note, Zach Ertz has been down right nasty in this format. Top 8 players that aren't QB? Gurley, Kamara, Conner, Hunt, Ertz, Melvin Gordon, Kelce, Hill

Gurley for Conner and Chubb doesn't seem ridiculously lop sided even if the one guy probably isn't making the playoffs. In PPR Gurley is only scoring 3.25 extra PPG over Conner and Chubb has the volume to be a solid RB2 or low end RB1 for the rest of season. I think there is a reasonable chance that overall the guy getting Conner and Chubb gets more value out of the trade than the guy who got Gurley

I think there is a reasonable chance that overall the guy getting Conner and Chubb gets more value out of the trade than the guy who got Gurley Obviously since rules allow it and there's no evidence of collusion it should be allowed through, but he should definitely try to get a trade deadline put in for next season. But in your scenario, let's say the dude giving up Gurley is indeed out of playoff contention, any trade he makes is pretty much lopsided if he's sending away the best player. The players he's getting back are practically non factors in the trade. And implying 3.25 more PPG isn't a big thing, lol. Obviously we can't factor in Chubb due to lack of roster information, but it wouldn't surprise me if he's a bench RB due to him and Conner both being mid/low level picks.

The guy giving up Gurley needs to win out and have one of the 4 people tied for 3rd to lose out in order to tie for the last spot which then goes to points scored. He's scored more than 2 of those 4 currently. I'm the scumbag in second who's 3rd from the bottom in scoring and has had fewest points scored against. ScottyJSno posted:I want to know who the league leader has as a RB2 after trading away Chubb and Conner? Conner IS his RB2. He has Hunt and then Mack will be his new Flex instead of Chubb.

But man imagine giving up the #1 scorer when you need to win out. Makes even less sense when you notice that Chubb is on bye this week. Bold strategy to ship out the #1 RB playing against one of the worst defenses for a big downgrade and another RB that is on bye this week when you absolutely have to win every week.

Not a very smart trade if you're needing to win out even if you think Chubb is worth the downgrade from Gurley to Conner. That trade should absolutely be approved, but it's still a really really dumb trade for the guy giving up Gurley in his situation of must win out.

Yah if I needed more points to make a run I’d move Gurley for Conner and Chubb in a heart beat. Especially if I had a garbage flex that combined with Gurley wouldn’t score near as many points as Conner & Chubb

Even if that RB trade was horribly lopsided - and we've already seen people in this thread who can argue it might not be - that doesn't make it collusion, or blockable. Lopsided trades have to be allowed in fantasy football, if you allow trades at all. If you're concerned that you have total newbies playing in leagues with seasoned veterans, give the newbies a handicap - say, 5 points per game or something. But you can't police trades and cancel the ones you don't think are good, because you will definitely get it wrong eventually (even if it's just some elite guy getting hurt immediately) and then you will have ruined someone's fantasy season because you were playing trade cop. Worse, you'll be taking away a major pathway by which a good fantasy player exercises their skill in order to win. If you don't want good fantasy players to take advantage of bad fantasy players, then just disallow trading entirely, and also I guess you better get rid of the waiver wire because that's another place a good player can beat a bad player, and I guess also disallow good players talking to bad players because they might advise them about who to start or sit, and I guess also just run the bad player's team for them, just to be sure. And if none of the above is convincing, consider that in the real life NFL, a dickhead like Gruden can send Khalil Mack to the Bears and that's allowed too. Sometimes the Pats are already dominating the league and then a moron trades them a great player for peanuts, and you're the buffalo bills or the jets and you're just like... god dammit, stop doing that you assholes, but deal with it because that's the game.

Well, wasn't able to grab the Cardinals DST for the week. Have Kansas City right now which I definitely don't want to use against the Rams. Some teams are rostering multiple defenses, so it looks like my best options for the week are: Steelers @Jax Panthers @Det Ravens vCincy Bengals @Bal Steelers have been okay and could do well against a Jacksonville that is flat from their loss last week. Panthers gets to play against a Detroit where Stafford hasn't been great, Marvin Jones Jr and Kerryon aren't at 100% and the Lions O-line got mauled by the Bears last week. Ravens did really well against the Bills and Titans, and with AJ Green out the Bengals offense has been slipping. Of course, the Bengals could be playing against a rookie QB this week even though they were stomped last week. I guess I'm thinking of going with the Panthers? Would appreciate some other opinions. Here's all of my options in case I'm missing a good play

Their offense is on fire, so Jax won't be able to ground it out. Their defense has been capitalizing on frantic catchup QB play. Grab them and don't look back. Another way to look at it is: You're thinking of passing over one of the hottest offense-defense combos with a choice matchup in favor of... the team that gave up 45 points to that hot offense.

We had a tie in our league this week, but ESPN is saying the team on the right won.  We've had ties in past years with no issues, and that setting wasn't changed this year. I checked to be sure and Matchup Tie Breaker is set to None. Do any of y'all have any ideas as to what's going on there?

Ben Nevis posted:We had a tie in our league this week, but ESPN is saying the team on the right won. Since passing yardage is probably like 0.04 or 0.05 points per yard, it likely isn't actually exactly 137.5 for both team, but one of them rounded from something like 137.45 or 137.46 or whatever. Edit: Brady's 254 passing yards is 10.16 points at 1 pt per 25 yards, so that team is probably at 137.46 and rounded up for display to show 137.5. sourdough fucked around with this message at 16:37 on Nov 14, 2018 |

Prescott has been so bad (up until very recently) and Cousins has been pretty ok. Surprisingly though the Cooper addition seems to have sparked the offense a bit in Dallas. I would have to look at ROS, but I don't immediately hate the idea which is more than I could have said a couple of weeks ago.

Conner >>> Cohen > Ingram > Cook / Mack > Yeldon Obv I shouldn't trade Conner, but there's a dude in my league with both A.Brown & Tyreek Hill. It's not worth trading 1 for 1 for Brown or Hill right? I could play Cohen / Ingram + Cook or Mack easy.

Good news: Yahoo does average over 4 weeks now. Used to drive me crazy that they didn't include that. In 6 point TD pass leagues, Dak is just outside QB1 at 21.58, Cousins is 19th with 18.35 . Plus Diggs is injured, and Dak has been more consistent.

Yahoo does averages over 4 weeks but they seem to take the last 4 weeks in which a player scored points, so if a guy doesn't play all season and then scores 25 in a week his 4 week average shows up as 25 not 6.25.

Conner >> Cook / Ingram > Mack > Cohen > Yeldon. Without knowing your current WRs or whether it's PPR, don't know if it's worth trading Conner for Brown. It could be, if your WR2 is really really bad and it's PPR (that boosts Brown relative to RBs and also makes your RB situation nicer than it would be in standard). Probably better not to do it, though. Mack, Ingram, or Cook should all be able to net you a nice weekly starter at WR.
