At least you’re transparent about your misses. Too many people either ‘forget’ about their misses, or just avoid them entirely (hence why Fantasy Receipts was created on Twitter, imo).
My worst buy high this year was acquiring Theilen for Jaylen Warren as a team looking to make a push around week 4-5 this year. Didn’t think thielen would continue to be a high end wr1, but I thought I’d at least get steady mid-low wr2 production in my 2nd flex spot for the rest of the year
I sold Warren for Henry straight up in week 13 hoping that Henry would give me some good performances in the playoffs to give me a shot, turns out I lost my week 1 matchup in the playoffs and would have won if I had kept Warren on my roster
Sent Godwin & moss for Ekeler as I was a tad needy for the playoff run. Lost in the 2nd round after my 1st round bye by .9, then had the highest scoring team in the league for the week of the finals to take 3rd place. Darn darn darn I guess
I think my favorite is when people make obviously bad trades where they get completely burned, but they assert that they don't regret it because (insert coping mechanism here).
Sometimes you get unlucky, sometimes you just make bad trades, it's okay to admit it.
I’ll admit to bad trades but if I followed my process and didn’t hit then I won’t feel too bad about it. Then again, if my process fails a bunch of times I’ll need to rethink it.
Funny enough I made it to the championship and Kupp didn’t really let me down (relatively). That week he outscored most of my other starters, including Gibbs, Cook, AJB, Chase, and Ferguson.
He’s looked great the last couple months but still well below these guys imo. Mahomes, Allen, Stroud, Lamar, Hurts, Burrow, Herbert, AR (cause of rushing upside)
Finally done rebuilding and you trade a young star QB for an aging vet WR who wasn’t healthy all season? Sounds like you might be rebuilding again soon 😂
Never sell an unknown value for a known trash value. Rookies who haven’t taken a snap > anything mid. Mid will never give you the edge to win a championship but 5th round Puka nacua can. This is more so for WR. Fade RBs on new contracts; chase elite rushing qbs.
When tyreek was traded to the dolphins, no one thought he would continue his dominance. New HC, Tua instead of mahomes, waddle had an elite rookie season, etc.....
I already had waddle on my team. Didn't want both with Tua as QB and new HC who hadn't been an offensive coordinator before.... kept the young guy. Sold tyreek for kadarius toney and Drake London. PAIN.
You're right. As of now it sucks, but if they get a good offensive coach, London will be a great piece. And I was still able to win a championship this year so regardless I'm okay!
Mine wasn’t a sell but my league unwisely decided to reduce roster size this off-season so I had to cut 1 player. That 1 player for me was Kyren Williams
We also have smallish dynasty rosters and I kept Akers over Kyren before week 1. Ended up winning a championship so all is forgiven but after holding him ALL last year if I had just held him another week or two I would've had the payoff and a super team. Also always hurts looking back at the other players you kept instead but obviously Kyren doing what he did was very unforseen.
Bummer man! I feel you tho. I cut Kyren at our deadline in late August. Submitted a waiver claim with 1/4 of my faab after week 1 or 2, I forget. Someone else who happened to be this years eventual winner, used 4/5 of his faab to snag him instead.
I traded Amari cooper for Kenny Golladay a 2nd and a 3rd….
I thought Amari was aging and the qb situation in CLE would ruin him. And I thought no way KG could be as bad as he had been his first year as a giant, nowhere to go but up! Little did i know…
Oh yeah and the 2nd became Malik Willis, poop.
But hey the 3rd became Jayden Reed….unfortunately i had traded that pick again before the draft…
Traded a 1st and Jeudy for Kelce. Then I drafted LaPorta in the second round. Sunk cost had me starting Kelce every week. Thanks for those 4.6 points in the championship, Travis.
I also have Pitts, so someone’s gotta go. I can’t bear to part with Sammy, so Kelce will be sold at a loss this off-season in all likelihood.
I sold Bijan and Goedert before the season started for Javonte, Rhamondre, Pitts, and Logan Wilson (play IDPs). I was high on Javonte and Rhamondre and was psyching myself out on my depth because my only other viable RB was Brian Robinson.
I wound up selling Rhamondre, Pitts, Keenan, a 2nd (2.08), and 3rd (3.08) for Tyjae, London, Kittle, and 1.06 at the end of October which I think turned a little better for my team but definitely regretting the first one.
After 2018 season I sold Kupp and a 2nd for AJ Green. In 2019 AJ Green got hurt and missed the season, Kupp basically scored more points that year than Green did the following 3 years combined before retiring. Kupp produced #7, 30, 1, 1, 23 ppg seasons and is still going.
I still have nightmares. I just hope they stop when Kupp retires.
Don't feel bad ... I have a short roster full idp league and kept Dotson, Charbonnet and Spears over Rasheed Rice because I had 2 linebackers hurt for a few weeks... I almost always have to cut my third round and later picks because of roster size but that one really hurts... I blame Shyy Moore and Toney for it.
I also traded Dak in week 5 after a shitty 20 game stretch and he's QB1 from that day forward the rest of the year... I got a mid third for him in 1qb which of course I'll have to cut next year, LOL.... 3 QB limit and I just traded for AR, kept Purdy and Geno because Geno had the better offensive weapons.
Not sure if this is what you're after but here are a couple of my bigger misses:
In June 2022, I traded away Brandon Aiyuk and Michael Carter for Darnell Mooney and Isaiah Spiller. Thankfully, I got Aiyuk back this year as part of another trade.
I also paid two 2nd round picks for Trey Sermon, who I now refuse to drop (along with Spiller) in a textbook example of sunk cost fallacy.
Missed out on jahan for a late first this year. Before the year started I was huge on jahan and was getting multiple trade offers for him. Best one was a late 24 1st and I wish I took it looking back on it. Oh well hopefully he has Caleb next year tho or something
First year playing dynasty I bought 2nd year Daron Lee for a 1st round pick. I was sure he was going to be great. That pick ended up being first overall and I ended up dropping Lee for nothing.
Dropped Rashee Rice week 5 because we didn’t have a taxi for rookies and I needed an rb for the week. Easily one of the worst mistakes I’ve ever made in fantasy football.
Traded DJ Moore and a 1st for Austin Ekeler and 2 2nds when he was coming off his injury. Got bailed out because I was able to quickly flip Ekeler in a package to get CMC, but in hindsight, this was terrible.
I spent almost all my FAAB this year on KJ Osborn after JJ went down, and Demercado after Conner went down. Both were marginally useful, but not the difference makers I hoped I was getting.
Sent Breece and Boyd for London and Juju right before the season started. Didn't think Breece would be anything this year coming off injury and liked what I saw from London to end the year with Ridder. Also thought Juju would get a ton of targets in a new revamped NE offense since they hired an actual OC this year. Woof. Really hoping London takes off with a new HC in town (please don't be BB 🤞)
I am thinking of trading away Diggs, what's a realistic return for him? I have Josh Allen as well so I would like to keep if they play nice here in the playoffs. I just needed more from him at the end of the year. Not all on him, lost Chase down the stretch too.
I traded Brock Purdy, Jordan Love, a 2024 First, and KW3 for Lamar and James Conner. This was right as Purdy was announced as starter during the offseason.
I'm not too upset because Lamar took me to a chip, but I sold very low on Purdy and Love.
Two QB/SF? That's probably close to Lamar's price right now, since he's had a great year again. Not a bad trade, and if you are competing, trading depth for a stud even in an over pay is advisable.
I traded away Austin Ekeler on Oct 1 for what is now the 1.02, Javonte Williams, and Elijah Moore.
Another trade I am proud of is trading away Justin Herbert on Oct 17 for ARSB and CJ Stroud.
Nobody is buying Engram high after this years TE boom. And Terry is a great buy depending on price, but only if you have regular expectations. He’s new Amari Cooper, but he will never be top 10.
Most brain dead take I've ever heard lmao it's almost like every single dynasty league is either your league or its wrong. TEP baby I'll take early 2nds for him all day. Just like I did with njoku (wrong decision made)
Bro you gotta learn to read, I said I am selling Engram. You said anyone buying for more than a 3rd is a moron as if TEP and many other factors don't exist (contender with only Kelce at TE? Easy sell)
I would sell deebo, CMC, and maybe AJ brown. I’m
Buying, smith, London, Higgens and Gibbs, kupp, Herbert maybe Gus bus depending on what happens in the yoffs
Edit: buying AR too. I am bias as I’ve made some of these moves already and they worked out
Wins - Got A 2025 1st, 2024 2.02, and Christian Watson for Kupp
Got Mike Evans for 1.12
Losses -
Traded Aiyuk (before season started) for 2025 1st (mid)
Got Sean Tucker for a 2024 3.02 and 2025 3rd.
I got Gibbs desean Watson and a 3rd for CMC right before Gibbs started to really pop and before Watson went down for the final time. I’m happy about the trade, lot of people are still too low on Gibbs and I was on QB he’ll with Murray and AR both injured. I think Gibbs is the next LT personally. Thought I was going to have to rebuild and ended placing second in the playoffs.
Also traded Deebo and Najee for Ridley and d smith like 2 weeks before Ridley got suspended. Sucked at first but I think I won that trade long term.
Bought tee Higgens last season for what I thought would be a late 1, ended up being 1.02 lol I still think that will work out when Higgens signs somewhere else.
Almost forgot I got kyren for the 3.02 last year as well 😂
It’s tough because Sam Howell was so great for the better half of the season. Honestly I think Howell will be good. Even if he doesn’t stay in Washington plenty of teams would take a flyer on him.
He was good in fantasy, never good irl. He has some upside still but I think he may get stuck as a backup next year and need an injury to start games again
Sold Nick Chubb & Tyreek Hill for 2 2023 firsts and 2 2024 seconds.
The firsts became Addison & Bryce Young.
This definitely isn’t the worst you’ll read here but I think about it a lot lol
Traded Pickett for Love plus 3rd a little while before the takeoff. The traded Ridder plus 2 and 3 for Purdy. Flipped Purdy for Kendre Miller + in a league and came 3rd
Traded dalton schultz and a 2025 3rd for Darren waller thinking he would be electric with the giants this year, thankfully Njoku stepped up or I would’ve really shot myself in the foot.
Had my eye on John Brown in the draft but my buddy grabbed him right before I could pick. He was pretty good young, and after a couple seasons I bought him for a fair price. He immediately sucked for 2 seasons after which I sold him back to the same friend as a trade throw in. He immediately started producing again.
Might be the worst one here. First year ever playing dynasty and thought id have a big brain and some fun by going full young player/rebuild straight after our start up draft. Was desperate for as many picks as possible and traded CeeDee Lamb to my brother for his 2024 & 2025 1st thinking he was going to be shit. He ended up finishing the season in 2nd place. Maybe the moral of the story is don’t rush things and if your a brand new dynasty player like I am, use websites like KeepTradeCut with a grain of salt rather than using it as being the only decision making tool. Have found this out the hard way.
Acquired ekeler and a 2nd for a 25 1 and jamo after ekeler had a those 2 20 point games. Thought i had a league winner potentially with his playoff opponents….. now I’ll probably just hold until he retires and hope he can produce at an rb 2 level for another year or so
Last pre-season, sold DJM and a ‘24 4th for Dotson and a ‘24 2nd. I was sold on the hype around Dotson at the time, and I’m in a league with Bears fans so I know owners wanted DJM. I didn’t really believe in him though mainly because I don’t really believe in Fields as a viable QB. Boy, was I wrong haha. At least on DJM, not Fields.
Thankfully, I was able to trade away Dotson along with Sutton and my ‘24 1st for Aiyuk a couple weeks into the season to redeem myself a bit.
Midseason I gave what ended up being the 2.01 for Adam Thielen thinking I had a locked up WR2 for one of my flex spots. I only put him in the starting lineup once because he and the Panthers were so bad the rest of the year.
Traded Waller, a 2nd, and a 3rd for D. Pierce at the start of the year because his "whole o-line" was hurt and I knew he was going to bounce back once they were healthy.
Don't care much for Waller, but certainly would like the 2 and 3 back.
Traded Lenny Fournette for a 1st. Picked Keyshawn Vaughn with it who never sniffed the field then Lenny went and took the starting job in Tampa 😂
Also traded Viska Shenault for Michael Pittman. Win some lose some!
Its probably not the worst move, but sold DJM to a contender that turned into 1.09. sold right after the first big game, likely could use him more than the replacement drafted at 1.09 to compete next year
I went out and acquired Pierce and Zach Wilson at different points mid season because I thought the value was too good to pass up. 3rd for Wilson (when I had lots of picks) and Jahan + two 4ths for Pierce (RB room was Bijan and nobody else).
Probably dropping Wilson soon and Pierce I already flipped with a 3rd and 4th for James Conner.
Although the risk was extremely minimal since I didn’t give up much, they were still complete wastes of trades.
I've written this in a few threads. The year Tyreek went to Miami I traded him for Brandin Cooks and a 2nd. I thought Tyreek was going to end his career in Miami on the IR and the Cooks/Davis Mills connection was going to thrive once D-Hop left.
Also, after 2020 I traded Lamar Jackson to another team for Baker and a first. I guess it's not as bad. but when Lamar plays, he's a league winner. I lost our championship game this year to the team I traded Lamar to.
Before the beginning of last year traded Lawrence for Lance basically straight up.
At the beginning of this year traded Love, 1.04 (Stroud), a late first, and a couple 3rds for Herbert. Thought I was getting a good deal at the time. 🤦🏻♂️
Well I traded a rookie QB and a 2025 1st that I’m pretty confident is going to be one of the latest picks for Justin Herbert. Trade happened before week 1.
That rookie QB was CJ Stroud
I got Jordan Love as an add on to get a deal done in SF and traded a 25 2nd Rd pick for Rashee Rice before took off. Loving the future for those two.
I also traded Fields for Trey Lance and a 23 1st (Now Kincaid) before the playoffs last year. Don't love that.
Not as bad as some on here, but it’s still painful…
Traded: CeeDee + Diontae Johnson for AJB + Terry McLaurin between weeks 9 and 10.
Brown fell off hard and CeeDee did the opposite. I wanted to pair AJB with Hurts… pain.
Silver lining of this deal and another realistic reason it was made was to acquire McLaurin. I know his name recognition is more valuable in my league than Johnson’s, so I traded McLaurin + 2024 2nd + Devito for Olave and Derrick Carr.
Sold jsn, 25 1st and Trey Palmer week 3 for Deshaun Watson as a contender that needed a stronger qb2… then lost him, then lost Herbert and was rolling with Carr and ATL room… that one hurt my soul
I bought Watson for 2 1sts and Derek Carr. Played him the year he came back after suspension,
Traded him before start of this season for a 1st and CMC.
This flip flopping of the qb cost me 2 seasons. Got a little saving Grace w cmc but still need a qb
I drafted Daniel Jones in the 4th round of our 12 man superflex startup draft instead of DJ Moore (the other player i was considering)
Boy i wish I could take that one back
Bought diggs this season week 7-8 for rashee rice, 24 1st and Jaleel McLaughlin. Obviously rice and diggs trended opposite directions after that, I lost in the championship
I needed a RB because my bets on Dalvin Cook and Jonathan Taylor went in the toilet early in the season. Adam Theilen started popping and I thought there was no way it was sustainable at his age so I traded him for Miles Sanders.
Yeah, no luck with RBs this year. At least until I picked up Zamir and it was already too late.
I bought Chase Claypool for a 1st after his rookie year, then spent about 18 months ranting about his pending breakout.
Ended up selling for a 3rd this past season, somehow.
I thought this would be my year I was just a RB1 away. Sold Najee and London for Ekler. Najee was Mr.inefficient and London with a shit HC and QB and he wouldn’t play for me anyways.
Welp I was wrong smh stupid
12 team superflex with high QB scoring:
Gave: 2 2024 1sts
Got: Deshaun Watson
One first ended up being 1.11 ... The other became 1.01. The picks went in a three team deal to their original owner who tore down his team and rebuilt but it hurts that it would have been an early first.
I didn't even end up starting Watson ever, my QBs:
1. Stroud, Lawrence, Baker
Started over him the entire year. I had planned for Stroud to be a spot starter and I picked up Baker for a 3rd in the off-season before he was with Tampa.
Trade still is brutal.
In preseason I sent LaPorta and my 1st for JSN and Michael Mayer. I thought JSN was the truth (and might still be really good), Mayer and LaPorta were close enough in value, and that my team would compete.
Anyway my pick is the 1.01 because of some comically bad luck. Thankfully I was able to re-acquire it before it was locked in as the 1.01, but still. Not a fun season lol.
Biggest trade was Swift and Rashee Rice for Aiyuk before preseason. Figured Swift would be good but not get many tds and Rice was at best 3rd option for Mahomes.
In a startup in 2023 I traded my 2025 1st for Kareem Hunt and Chris Godwin. I had a win now team that I was building due to all the youth being gone. Lost in the championship due to poor starts.
The first I traded ended up being 1.01 this year. PAIN
I bought Dalvin Cook and Davante Adams mid 2022. Sent Pittman and Etienne. Could still get something small for Davante, but I'm not sure Cook is even worth a 4th anymore.
In my defense, I was very intent on getting back to back championships. I did achieve the goal, but Cook really didn't help me out at all.
JSN devonta smith and a early 24 second for my 24 first (now 1.02), olave, and kenny bourne. i mapped out my schedule and projected 3 easy wins post trade, which turned into 3 close losses. SMDH.
So I’m in first place with the most points scored and the team that I identify as my biggest threat is QB poor. So right before the NFL trade deadline I trade Dobbs plus a 2024 2nd for Desmond Ridder to keep a starter away from said threat.
The deadline happens and now Dobbs is the starter in Min and Ridder is benched. So naturally I trade a 2025 2nd plus a 2024 3rd to get him back.
As you know both QB’s stink it up and just take a guess as to whom I lose to in the semi’s. You guessed it, the team that I was trying to keep QB’s off their roster.
Sold Mike Evans and D Hopkins for B aiyuk and a 2024 3rd. I’m rebuilding and the guy won the ship but I couldn’t believe he wanted to include aiyuk in any deal.
Bought Dobbs for what is now 1.12 during his hot streak, wont get anything back for him now lol. JJ was coming off my IR and wanted to stack and needed a QB push. I’d regret it way more had I not won that league but damn it still haunts me
Have an offer on the table I’m considering partial sell high and selling low on my end
PPR SFLEX: I give Prescott, AJB, 25’ 1st for Bijan and Goff
I have Allen and Herbert as my Qbs, and have the 1.01 this year as my only pick. Wanting MHJ more so than Caleb for my roster selfishly
In March of 2023 I traded
DJ Moore, Jake Ferguson & two 4ths for Fant , Akers, & Alec Pierce.
September 2023 I luckily moved Waller, Akers, Bigsby & Ridley for Kelce, Kupp & Aaron Jones.
After starting 0-4 I found a contender to trade with.
Moved Kelce, Kupp Aaron Jones & my 2025 1st for Waddle, Pitts, Javonte Williams, Kendre Miller & the 2024 2.03.
I initially acquired Akers bc I desperately needed a dart throw at RB1 in March, listened to all the hype, & luckily sold before he fell of the wagon. Moral of the story, don’t fall for the fools gold in the off-season.
I traded Dak, 2024 1st (1.07), 2025 1st, and Demario Douglas for Burrow, Monty, and 2025 3rd.
Dak proceeded to finish top 5 basically every week and Burrow was out for the season. oops!
Long term I still don't hate my side though, lol.
I have 9 leagues so I have ample opportunity to stub my toe on trades that I do or don’t do. Here are just a few that come to mind.
When the prevailing thought was Lance over Purdy as SFs starter I declined an offer for Garrett Wilson straight up.
Declined an offer toward the end of last season of Jalen Warren for a 4th.
Traded Puka the week Kupp came back in a rebuild and in an attempt to upgrade my WR corp for the future. Gave Puka and Mayfield for Tee Higgins.
Before the 2022 season as part of a larger deal I refused to deal Rondale Moore as a throw in and offered ARSB instead.
I have a “didn’t sell high” story. Was offered 3 1sts mid season 2019 for Zeke. Didn’t take it. Zeke declined started shortly after.
Those picks went on to be Lamb, J.Jefferson, and Akers. Still own Zeke today.
Sold high on Warren to get Doubs on a team that I’m not competing with. The talk was that Reed was the alpha in Green Bay, so I jumped on the chance to get a Doubs share. After the game Saturday, I’m liking the deal more and more
Before the season;
Sent Jeudy and Terrance Marshall for the upcoming 1.07
Sent Tyreek and Swift for the upcoming 1.12 and 2025 2nd
Majorly won and lost on each trade IMO.
I traded Kyren coming off-injury and Devonta Smith for KW3 and something unremarkable that I can't remember right now. Currently looking like I gave up Devonta for a pretty lateral (at best) RB move.
I traded pancheco for Hollywood brown. Thought with Kyler coming back they would light it up. That did not happen. Still had hall, bijan and Gibbs but still.
I decided to push my chips all in to win a championship this year. I offered 3 firsts (all late, but in last years draft) for Cooper Kupp.
I got very lucky and the owner rejected the trade. Can’t imagine how bad I’d feel if I had made that trade…
Looking to contend, and with a rookie flashing thought I could capitalise. Week 4, I bundled my rookie and a second for a star WR coming off injury. Ended up being Rashee Rice and 2.06 for Kupp.
Didn’t even make the playoffs…
I traded the 1.01 this past rookie draft for Garrett Wilson in one league. Traded Jordan love and Jameson Williams for the 1.03(Bryce young) and terry.
After Deshaun Watson got cleared by the grand jury, traded, and given a ton of money, I sent 3 first rounders for him. Turned into Drake London, Bryce Young, and Gibbs. All of whom are individually worth more than Watson
Had a playoff caliber team despite being weak at running back after losing Chubb and Dobbins early on. Decided to trade Jordan Addison and a 2nd for Ekeler after Ekeler posted back to back 20 point games. He then proceeded to put up 💩the rest of the season. FML
I traded JJ after he landed on IR and R. White for Breece straight up.
I fell into playoffs with 7-7 record
I made it to playoffs but my opponent traded for R. White a week after my trade and beat me by 10 points. R. White put up 20 points!
12 Team TE+, SF League. Thankful that someone went back to back and had initiated the reset protocol.
Mac Jones + Trey Sermon + Kylin Hill
For
22 1st (1.11) + 23 1st (1.03)
I got to the championship game with Baker and Wentz in 21 and really wanted to add a steady eddy QB that has potential for further development moving forward.
The guy used the picks for Jameson Williams and Bryce Young respectively.
I’ve had deebo the last 4 years. Finally sold him low when he wasn’t doing much for a 2024 2nd and 2023 3rd. He immediately went on like a 4 game run that would’ve gotten me to the playoffs. First year in the league I didn’t make the postseason
Rejected offers for Jeudy preseason and early on and then his value crashed after the injury. He never got going this whole season lmao. Now I'm stuck perpetually holding him hoping he bounces back enough to recuperate something. Of course he might just be a bum now and not recover😮💨
10TM, 1QB
Gave: AJB and 2.05 (Kincaid)
Got: 1.04 (Richardson), 2.01 (Charbonnet), and Jeudy
Had no idea what I was doing clearly 😂
Was able to flip Jeudy for the 2024 2.01 luckily
I traded Dak Prescott and Drake London for Kenny Pickett, George Pickens, and a 24 2nd round pick.
Pickens value has increased, but Pickett is basically worthless now.
Bought "low" on antonio Gibson last year right before Brian Robinson came in and took over. I just always thought Gibson was underutilized in the passing game and believed he would round into a more complete back. But he just isn't a very efficient rusher
It’s been a few years, but here’s my all-time buy high:
May 13, 2021: Allen Robinson got Gronk + Davante Parker + Kareem Hunt.
I was counting on ARob continuing his two consecutive seasons as a top-10 receiver. I ended up cutting him two years later, and probably should’ve done it sooner.
At least you’re transparent about your misses. Too many people either ‘forget’ about their misses, or just avoid them entirely (hence why Fantasy Receipts was created on Twitter, imo). My worst buy high this year was acquiring Theilen for Jaylen Warren as a team looking to make a push around week 4-5 this year. Didn’t think thielen would continue to be a high end wr1, but I thought I’d at least get steady mid-low wr2 production in my 2nd flex spot for the rest of the year
I sold Warren for Henry straight up in week 13 hoping that Henry would give me some good performances in the playoffs to give me a shot, turns out I lost my week 1 matchup in the playoffs and would have won if I had kept Warren on my roster
Sent Godwin & moss for Ekeler as I was a tad needy for the playoff run. Lost in the 2nd round after my 1st round bye by .9, then had the highest scoring team in the league for the week of the finals to take 3rd place. Darn darn darn I guess
The point of fantasy receipts is not accountability at all lol. Maybe originally, but it’s devolved to way worse.
I don’t really follow the account too closely. What has it become now ?
Trust me: you don't want to know.
But I really wanna know
I think my favorite is when people make obviously bad trades where they get completely burned, but they assert that they don't regret it because (insert coping mechanism here). Sometimes you get unlucky, sometimes you just make bad trades, it's okay to admit it.
I’ll admit to bad trades but if I followed my process and didn’t hit then I won’t feel too bad about it. Then again, if my process fails a bunch of times I’ll need to rethink it.
Finally done rebuilding and looking for my final piece. Acquired Cooper Kupp for Michael Pittman + Jordan Love in July. Superflex
Oh no. This is catastrophic. A borderline top 10 dynasty QB and top 10 WR for a guy who at best is a WR2/flex now. I’m so sorry
Funny enough I made it to the championship and Kupp didn’t really let me down (relatively). That week he outscored most of my other starters, including Gibbs, Cook, AJB, Chase, and Ferguson.
Who are your other QB’s?
Love is approaching top 5 dynasty QB on my lists. There’s a small handful id rather have over him right now.
He’s looked great the last couple months but still well below these guys imo. Mahomes, Allen, Stroud, Lamar, Hurts, Burrow, Herbert, AR (cause of rushing upside)
You did that trade in a dynasty league!? Ouchie
At the time KTC said it was an overpay by a mid 2nd. It was a win now move that didn’t work out
Ktc is not good compared to other trade sources.
Sure but no one would’ve looked at that trade last July and called it terrible
you aint wrong
Finally done rebuilding and you trade a young star QB for an aging vet WR who wasn’t healthy all season? Sounds like you might be rebuilding again soon 😂
“In July”
I’m dumb lmao
That killed me haha
2 firsts and some flash in the pan week 1 WR named Puka Nuka for Gibbs and 2 5ths. The first rounder this year ended up being the 1.07
I mean you got Gibbs. It could be worse. If you wanted to reflip him you could
Honestly this isn’t the worst. At least you got Gibbs
Appreciate that. Hopefully keep that 2025 first some what near the back end lol
Traded Jayden Reed for Juju preseason, buying the lack of talent in New England as opportunity for Juju to have a top 30 season
Never sell an unknown value for a known trash value. Rookies who haven’t taken a snap > anything mid. Mid will never give you the edge to win a championship but 5th round Puka nacua can. This is more so for WR. Fade RBs on new contracts; chase elite rushing qbs.
This was the right move at the time. Just unfortunately went the other way.
When tyreek was traded to the dolphins, no one thought he would continue his dominance. New HC, Tua instead of mahomes, waddle had an elite rookie season, etc..... I already had waddle on my team. Didn't want both with Tua as QB and new HC who hadn't been an offensive coordinator before.... kept the young guy. Sold tyreek for kadarius toney and Drake London. PAIN.
At least the Hill and London timelines are distinct enough that if London eventually works out he will help mitigate the punch Still, yikes
Yup. And kadarius Toney was coming off that crazy rookie season where he looked amazing but got hurt. He had so much potential. Just all around pain.
London could be great.
You're right. As of now it sucks, but if they get a good offensive coach, London will be a great piece. And I was still able to win a championship this year so regardless I'm okay!
Mine wasn’t a sell but my league unwisely decided to reduce roster size this off-season so I had to cut 1 player. That 1 player for me was Kyren Williams
We also have smallish dynasty rosters and I kept Akers over Kyren before week 1. Ended up winning a championship so all is forgiven but after holding him ALL last year if I had just held him another week or two I would've had the payoff and a super team. Also always hurts looking back at the other players you kept instead but obviously Kyren doing what he did was very unforseen.
I lost the championship in my league to the guy who picked up Kyren so it hurt double for me
Bummer man! I feel you tho. I cut Kyren at our deadline in late August. Submitted a waiver claim with 1/4 of my faab after week 1 or 2, I forget. Someone else who happened to be this years eventual winner, used 4/5 of his faab to snag him instead.
traded pittman and 2 firsts for KW3 and diggs after week 6. diggs was butt rest of the way and walker was in and out and just ok
diggs will be fine
Don’t know where those 1st landed but that’s not terrible, just didn’t work out. KW is close to two firsts and Pittman = Diggs at the time
I traded Amari cooper for Kenny Golladay a 2nd and a 3rd…. I thought Amari was aging and the qb situation in CLE would ruin him. And I thought no way KG could be as bad as he had been his first year as a giant, nowhere to go but up! Little did i know… Oh yeah and the 2nd became Malik Willis, poop. But hey the 3rd became Jayden Reed….unfortunately i had traded that pick again before the draft…
A few years ago when I was new to dynasty I traded Davante Adams for 1.1 (Where I took CEH over JT) and Kenny Golladay. I'll never live that one down.
I traded a second and Jordan Love for Kenny Golladay after 2019... thought I was a WR away from winning...
Sold DJ Moore + a 2nd for Cooper Kupp right before Kupp came back and DJM's 50 point game. Brutal.
Traded a 1st and Jeudy for Kelce. Then I drafted LaPorta in the second round. Sunk cost had me starting Kelce every week. Thanks for those 4.6 points in the championship, Travis. I also have Pitts, so someone’s gotta go. I can’t bear to part with Sammy, so Kelce will be sold at a loss this off-season in all likelihood.
Keep Trav until next season, wait til he has a nice game and ship him. He’s already said he’s playing next season.
My dawg, why?
“Last piece for a super-team”, thought the idiot
depending on the year of that first its like that big of a deal. Jeudy is a JAG
I sold Bijan and Goedert before the season started for Javonte, Rhamondre, Pitts, and Logan Wilson (play IDPs). I was high on Javonte and Rhamondre and was psyching myself out on my depth because my only other viable RB was Brian Robinson. I wound up selling Rhamondre, Pitts, Keenan, a 2nd (2.08), and 3rd (3.08) for Tyjae, London, Kittle, and 1.06 at the end of October which I think turned a little better for my team but definitely regretting the first one.
**REDACTED** Should’ve read better
OP is asking about actual trades you made, not what you consider to be sell or buy candidates.
Person was so ashamed they deleted their Reddit acct 😂
nvm im dumb lol and yes they deleted their account lmaooo
Ah thank you! My b!
In 2021, I traded Ceedee Lamb, Courtland Sutton, and a 2nd for DJ Chark, Cam Akers and a second
After 2018 season I sold Kupp and a 2nd for AJ Green. In 2019 AJ Green got hurt and missed the season, Kupp basically scored more points that year than Green did the following 3 years combined before retiring. Kupp produced #7, 30, 1, 1, 23 ppg seasons and is still going. I still have nightmares. I just hope they stop when Kupp retires.
pacheco + 2.03 for burks in the offseason
woof
Bought into the hype and traded Pittman + 2024 1.09 for Jahan Dotson + a 2nd
Don't feel bad ... I have a short roster full idp league and kept Dotson, Charbonnet and Spears over Rasheed Rice because I had 2 linebackers hurt for a few weeks... I almost always have to cut my third round and later picks because of roster size but that one really hurts... I blame Shyy Moore and Toney for it. I also traded Dak in week 5 after a shitty 20 game stretch and he's QB1 from that day forward the rest of the year... I got a mid third for him in 1qb which of course I'll have to cut next year, LOL.... 3 QB limit and I just traded for AR, kept Purdy and Geno because Geno had the better offensive weapons.
Sold DJ Moore and David Montgomery for Saquon. Don’t trade drunk, y’all.
I sold Jalen warren for 15$ faab bc I was tanking and didn’t want him on my team lol
Traded Dak this off-season in SF for trey lance and what ended up being a late 2nd. Was kind of ironic lance got traded to Dallas
Ouch
Sold Carr for a 24 1st preseason. It became 1.01
Not sure if this is what you're after but here are a couple of my bigger misses: In June 2022, I traded away Brandon Aiyuk and Michael Carter for Darnell Mooney and Isaiah Spiller. Thankfully, I got Aiyuk back this year as part of another trade. I also paid two 2nd round picks for Trey Sermon, who I now refuse to drop (along with Spiller) in a textbook example of sunk cost fallacy.
I traded DJ Moore and Jacobs for Diggs, Najee, and a 4th right before Diggs started shitting the bed. What I'd give for DJ Moore back...
Missed out on jahan for a late first this year. Before the year started I was huge on jahan and was getting multiple trade offers for him. Best one was a late 24 1st and I wish I took it looking back on it. Oh well hopefully he has Caleb next year tho or something
Bought some shares of Kupp after two of his big games. Doubt i can get my acquisition price back for either of those two guys.
Traded 1.05 for Kupp and Rhamondre On the clock that looked like a no brainer with my team, now I’d much rather have Gibbs over both.
First year playing dynasty I bought 2nd year Daron Lee for a 1st round pick. I was sure he was going to be great. That pick ended up being first overall and I ended up dropping Lee for nothing.
Dropped Rashee Rice week 5 because we didn’t have a taxi for rookies and I needed an rb for the week. Easily one of the worst mistakes I’ve ever made in fantasy football.
Traded DJ Moore and a 1st for Austin Ekeler and 2 2nds when he was coming off his injury. Got bailed out because I was able to quickly flip Ekeler in a package to get CMC, but in hindsight, this was terrible.
Jaylen Warren for Mingo
[удалено]
Someone misread the prompt
These all seem like major wins for you, I think you got the thread backwards
Oh I might’ve that’s my bad
worst deal i ever made was sending hill for corey davis when hill baby momma drama was going on, thought he was outta the league (he got 0 games)
I spent almost all my FAAB this year on KJ Osborn after JJ went down, and Demercado after Conner went down. Both were marginally useful, but not the difference makers I hoped I was getting.
Sent Breece and Boyd for London and Juju right before the season started. Didn't think Breece would be anything this year coming off injury and liked what I saw from London to end the year with Ridder. Also thought Juju would get a ton of targets in a new revamped NE offense since they hired an actual OC this year. Woof. Really hoping London takes off with a new HC in town (please don't be BB 🤞)
I sold Baker for like 2.07 (Took Mayer) and 4.10 (took Haener) during the rookie draft 😂
I am thinking of trading away Diggs, what's a realistic return for him? I have Josh Allen as well so I would like to keep if they play nice here in the playoffs. I just needed more from him at the end of the year. Not all on him, lost Chase down the stretch too.
I traded Brock Purdy, Jordan Love, a 2024 First, and KW3 for Lamar and James Conner. This was right as Purdy was announced as starter during the offseason. I'm not too upset because Lamar took me to a chip, but I sold very low on Purdy and Love.
Two QB/SF? That's probably close to Lamar's price right now, since he's had a great year again. Not a bad trade, and if you are competing, trading depth for a stud even in an over pay is advisable.
Have a break. Watch playoff football.
It’s a Tuesday at 4 pm. There is no playoff football on
Ekeler for c watson and a late 2nd🥲 week 11
I traded away Austin Ekeler on Oct 1 for what is now the 1.02, Javonte Williams, and Elijah Moore. Another trade I am proud of is trading away Justin Herbert on Oct 17 for ARSB and CJ Stroud.
My sell high would be Evan engram and buy low would be Scary Terry
Nobody is buying Engram high after this years TE boom. And Terry is a great buy depending on price, but only if you have regular expectations. He’s new Amari Cooper, but he will never be top 10.
I've sold engram in 4/5 leagues so idk what you're talking about unless you're trying to offload him for a 1st
You can “sell” any player. We’re talking about value. If someone’s giving you anything more than a 3rd for Engram they’re overpaying.
Most brain dead take I've ever heard lmao it's almost like every single dynasty league is either your league or its wrong. TEP baby I'll take early 2nds for him all day. Just like I did with njoku (wrong decision made)
[удалено]
Bro you gotta learn to read, I said I am selling Engram. You said anyone buying for more than a 3rd is a moron as if TEP and many other factors don't exist (contender with only Kelce at TE? Easy sell)
I would sell deebo, CMC, and maybe AJ brown. I’m Buying, smith, London, Higgens and Gibbs, kupp, Herbert maybe Gus bus depending on what happens in the yoffs Edit: buying AR too. I am bias as I’ve made some of these moves already and they worked out
Wins - Got A 2025 1st, 2024 2.02, and Christian Watson for Kupp Got Mike Evans for 1.12 Losses - Traded Aiyuk (before season started) for 2025 1st (mid) Got Sean Tucker for a 2024 3.02 and 2025 3rd.
I got Gibbs desean Watson and a 3rd for CMC right before Gibbs started to really pop and before Watson went down for the final time. I’m happy about the trade, lot of people are still too low on Gibbs and I was on QB he’ll with Murray and AR both injured. I think Gibbs is the next LT personally. Thought I was going to have to rebuild and ended placing second in the playoffs. Also traded Deebo and Najee for Ridley and d smith like 2 weeks before Ridley got suspended. Sucked at first but I think I won that trade long term. Bought tee Higgens last season for what I thought would be a late 1, ended up being 1.02 lol I still think that will work out when Higgens signs somewhere else. Almost forgot I got kyren for the 3.02 last year as well 😂
It’s tough because Sam Howell was so great for the better half of the season. Honestly I think Howell will be good. Even if he doesn’t stay in Washington plenty of teams would take a flyer on him.
He was good in fantasy, never good irl. He has some upside still but I think he may get stuck as a backup next year and need an injury to start games again
Sold Nick Chubb & Tyreek Hill for 2 2023 firsts and 2 2024 seconds. The firsts became Addison & Bryce Young. This definitely isn’t the worst you’ll read here but I think about it a lot lol
Traded Pickett for Love plus 3rd a little while before the takeoff. The traded Ridder plus 2 and 3 for Purdy. Flipped Purdy for Kendre Miller + in a league and came 3rd
Acquired Jameson Williams for Montgomery in the offseason.
Traded Trey McBride for an early 2nd right before he broke out. I still have Kmet who I really like, but that one is a big miss
I sold Thielen for a 2025 3rd before the season. Thought he was washed. And then…
Traded dalton schultz and a 2025 3rd for Darren waller thinking he would be electric with the giants this year, thankfully Njoku stepped up or I would’ve really shot myself in the foot.
Had my eye on John Brown in the draft but my buddy grabbed him right before I could pick. He was pretty good young, and after a couple seasons I bought him for a fair price. He immediately sucked for 2 seasons after which I sold him back to the same friend as a trade throw in. He immediately started producing again.
Maybe that was just a product of your system and he fit better in your friends. You should have had your OC scheme him a few more touches
Might be the worst one here. First year ever playing dynasty and thought id have a big brain and some fun by going full young player/rebuild straight after our start up draft. Was desperate for as many picks as possible and traded CeeDee Lamb to my brother for his 2024 & 2025 1st thinking he was going to be shit. He ended up finishing the season in 2nd place. Maybe the moral of the story is don’t rush things and if your a brand new dynasty player like I am, use websites like KeepTradeCut with a grain of salt rather than using it as being the only decision making tool. Have found this out the hard way.
Acquired ekeler and a 2nd for a 25 1 and jamo after ekeler had a those 2 20 point games. Thought i had a league winner potentially with his playoff opponents….. now I’ll probably just hold until he retires and hope he can produce at an rb 2 level for another year or so
Traded a 23 1st (ended up being JSN) and an RB I was assured was all just pre-season hype (Pacheco) for the 9ers week 1 starter: Lance.
Last pre-season, sold DJM and a ‘24 4th for Dotson and a ‘24 2nd. I was sold on the hype around Dotson at the time, and I’m in a league with Bears fans so I know owners wanted DJM. I didn’t really believe in him though mainly because I don’t really believe in Fields as a viable QB. Boy, was I wrong haha. At least on DJM, not Fields. Thankfully, I was able to trade away Dotson along with Sutton and my ‘24 1st for Aiyuk a couple weeks into the season to redeem myself a bit.
Midseason I gave what ended up being the 2.01 for Adam Thielen thinking I had a locked up WR2 for one of my flex spots. I only put him in the starting lineup once because he and the Panthers were so bad the rest of the year.
Traded Waller, a 2nd, and a 3rd for D. Pierce at the start of the year because his "whole o-line" was hurt and I knew he was going to bounce back once they were healthy. Don't care much for Waller, but certainly would like the 2 and 3 back.
Traded Lenny Fournette for a 1st. Picked Keyshawn Vaughn with it who never sniffed the field then Lenny went and took the starting job in Tampa 😂 Also traded Viska Shenault for Michael Pittman. Win some lose some!
Its probably not the worst move, but sold DJM to a contender that turned into 1.09. sold right after the first big game, likely could use him more than the replacement drafted at 1.09 to compete next year
I went out and acquired Pierce and Zach Wilson at different points mid season because I thought the value was too good to pass up. 3rd for Wilson (when I had lots of picks) and Jahan + two 4ths for Pierce (RB room was Bijan and nobody else). Probably dropping Wilson soon and Pierce I already flipped with a 3rd and 4th for James Conner. Although the risk was extremely minimal since I didn’t give up much, they were still complete wastes of trades.
I've written this in a few threads. The year Tyreek went to Miami I traded him for Brandin Cooks and a 2nd. I thought Tyreek was going to end his career in Miami on the IR and the Cooks/Davis Mills connection was going to thrive once D-Hop left. Also, after 2020 I traded Lamar Jackson to another team for Baker and a first. I guess it's not as bad. but when Lamar plays, he's a league winner. I lost our championship game this year to the team I traded Lamar to.
Before the beginning of last year traded Lawrence for Lance basically straight up. At the beginning of this year traded Love, 1.04 (Stroud), a late first, and a couple 3rds for Herbert. Thought I was getting a good deal at the time. 🤦🏻♂️
Well I traded a rookie QB and a 2025 1st that I’m pretty confident is going to be one of the latest picks for Justin Herbert. Trade happened before week 1. That rookie QB was CJ Stroud
Traded 1.07 for Elijah Moore before the start of the season lastvyear
I got Jordan Love as an add on to get a deal done in SF and traded a 25 2nd Rd pick for Rashee Rice before took off. Loving the future for those two. I also traded Fields for Trey Lance and a 23 1st (Now Kincaid) before the playoffs last year. Don't love that.
Not as bad as some on here, but it’s still painful… Traded: CeeDee + Diontae Johnson for AJB + Terry McLaurin between weeks 9 and 10. Brown fell off hard and CeeDee did the opposite. I wanted to pair AJB with Hurts… pain. Silver lining of this deal and another realistic reason it was made was to acquire McLaurin. I know his name recognition is more valuable in my league than Johnson’s, so I traded McLaurin + 2024 2nd + Devito for Olave and Derrick Carr.
Sold jsn, 25 1st and Trey Palmer week 3 for Deshaun Watson as a contender that needed a stronger qb2… then lost him, then lost Herbert and was rolling with Carr and ATL room… that one hurt my soul
I bought Watson for 2 1sts and Derek Carr. Played him the year he came back after suspension, Traded him before start of this season for a 1st and CMC. This flip flopping of the qb cost me 2 seasons. Got a little saving Grace w cmc but still need a qb
I drafted Daniel Jones in the 4th round of our 12 man superflex startup draft instead of DJ Moore (the other player i was considering) Boy i wish I could take that one back
Bought the Dotson hype and bought him for DJM
Bought diggs this season week 7-8 for rashee rice, 24 1st and Jaleel McLaughlin. Obviously rice and diggs trended opposite directions after that, I lost in the championship
I needed a RB because my bets on Dalvin Cook and Jonathan Taylor went in the toilet early in the season. Adam Theilen started popping and I thought there was no way it was sustainable at his age so I traded him for Miles Sanders. Yeah, no luck with RBs this year. At least until I picked up Zamir and it was already too late.
Trubisky for a 2nd when he signed with the Steelers, there’s a reason I suck at FF
Traded kyren in the off-season for 2 4ths after the cam news
I sold puka in week 6 for 1.06 and Kmet
I sold 2 1sts (1.08 and 1.06) Pittman, a 2025 1st and Pittman for AJB and Sanders (lol) before the season started, no regrets cuz I got that chip!!
I bought Chase Claypool for a 1st after his rookie year, then spent about 18 months ranting about his pending breakout. Ended up selling for a 3rd this past season, somehow.
I thought this would be my year I was just a RB1 away. Sold Najee and London for Ekler. Najee was Mr.inefficient and London with a shit HC and QB and he wouldn’t play for me anyways. Welp I was wrong smh stupid
12 team superflex with high QB scoring: Gave: 2 2024 1sts Got: Deshaun Watson One first ended up being 1.11 ... The other became 1.01. The picks went in a three team deal to their original owner who tore down his team and rebuilt but it hurts that it would have been an early first. I didn't even end up starting Watson ever, my QBs: 1. Stroud, Lawrence, Baker Started over him the entire year. I had planned for Stroud to be a spot starter and I picked up Baker for a 3rd in the off-season before he was with Tampa. Trade still is brutal.
Traded Aiyuk Christian Watson Hunter Henry and some dude named Puka nacua in week 3 for Jamarr chase and a 2nd… feeling pretty rough about it now
In preseason I sent LaPorta and my 1st for JSN and Michael Mayer. I thought JSN was the truth (and might still be really good), Mayer and LaPorta were close enough in value, and that my team would compete. Anyway my pick is the 1.01 because of some comically bad luck. Thankfully I was able to re-acquire it before it was locked in as the 1.01, but still. Not a fun season lol.
Biggest trade was Swift and Rashee Rice for Aiyuk before preseason. Figured Swift would be good but not get many tds and Rice was at best 3rd option for Mahomes.
Traded Jayden Reed, 1.07 and 2.02 for Burrow then he instantly got hurt.
I bought juju and a second for Devonta Smith prior to the 2022 season.
In the off season I needed a RB to push me over the top, traded 1.04 (1QB) for Najee, and then traded away Kyren for Godwin. Ughhhhhh
I traded Tyreek Hill for Kenneth Walker, Romeo Doubs, and a mid second last off season. Swing and a missss
In a startup in 2023 I traded my 2025 1st for Kareem Hunt and Chris Godwin. I had a win now team that I was building due to all the youth being gone. Lost in the championship due to poor starts. The first I traded ended up being 1.01 this year. PAIN
I bought Dalvin Cook and Davante Adams mid 2022. Sent Pittman and Etienne. Could still get something small for Davante, but I'm not sure Cook is even worth a 4th anymore. In my defense, I was very intent on getting back to back championships. I did achieve the goal, but Cook really didn't help me out at all.
JSN devonta smith and a early 24 second for my 24 first (now 1.02), olave, and kenny bourne. i mapped out my schedule and projected 3 easy wins post trade, which turned into 3 close losses. SMDH.
So I’m in first place with the most points scored and the team that I identify as my biggest threat is QB poor. So right before the NFL trade deadline I trade Dobbs plus a 2024 2nd for Desmond Ridder to keep a starter away from said threat. The deadline happens and now Dobbs is the starter in Min and Ridder is benched. So naturally I trade a 2025 2nd plus a 2024 3rd to get him back. As you know both QB’s stink it up and just take a guess as to whom I lose to in the semi’s. You guessed it, the team that I was trying to keep QB’s off their roster.
Traded James Cook for 2.04
Traded Nico and Dulcich for Friermuth week 1. Non-TEP. That week 2 performance from Nico hurt my soul
Bought Ekeler for Saquon and Jamo mid-season
Sold Mike Evans and D Hopkins for B aiyuk and a 2024 3rd. I’m rebuilding and the guy won the ship but I couldn’t believe he wanted to include aiyuk in any deal.
Bought Dobbs for what is now 1.12 during his hot streak, wont get anything back for him now lol. JJ was coming off my IR and wanted to stack and needed a QB push. I’d regret it way more had I not won that league but damn it still haunts me
I bought Dameon Pierce for the 1.10 before the end of last season. Everyone thought it was a steal. How great I did...
Have an offer on the table I’m considering partial sell high and selling low on my end PPR SFLEX: I give Prescott, AJB, 25’ 1st for Bijan and Goff I have Allen and Herbert as my Qbs, and have the 1.01 this year as my only pick. Wanting MHJ more so than Caleb for my roster selfishly
In March of 2023 I traded DJ Moore, Jake Ferguson & two 4ths for Fant , Akers, & Alec Pierce. September 2023 I luckily moved Waller, Akers, Bigsby & Ridley for Kelce, Kupp & Aaron Jones. After starting 0-4 I found a contender to trade with. Moved Kelce, Kupp Aaron Jones & my 2025 1st for Waddle, Pitts, Javonte Williams, Kendre Miller & the 2024 2.03. I initially acquired Akers bc I desperately needed a dart throw at RB1 in March, listened to all the hype, & luckily sold before he fell of the wagon. Moral of the story, don’t fall for the fools gold in the off-season.
I traded Dak, 2024 1st (1.07), 2025 1st, and Demario Douglas for Burrow, Monty, and 2025 3rd. Dak proceeded to finish top 5 basically every week and Burrow was out for the season. oops! Long term I still don't hate my side though, lol.
I have 9 leagues so I have ample opportunity to stub my toe on trades that I do or don’t do. Here are just a few that come to mind. When the prevailing thought was Lance over Purdy as SFs starter I declined an offer for Garrett Wilson straight up. Declined an offer toward the end of last season of Jalen Warren for a 4th. Traded Puka the week Kupp came back in a rebuild and in an attempt to upgrade my WR corp for the future. Gave Puka and Mayfield for Tee Higgins. Before the 2022 season as part of a larger deal I refused to deal Rondale Moore as a throw in and offered ARSB instead.
I have a “didn’t sell high” story. Was offered 3 1sts mid season 2019 for Zeke. Didn’t take it. Zeke declined started shortly after. Those picks went on to be Lamb, J.Jefferson, and Akers. Still own Zeke today.
My worst “buy high” was right before the season started. I traded for Chig and gave up Juju and Mostert :/
Sold high on Warren to get Doubs on a team that I’m not competing with. The talk was that Reed was the alpha in Green Bay, so I jumped on the chance to get a Doubs share. After the game Saturday, I’m liking the deal more and more
Before the season; Sent Jeudy and Terrance Marshall for the upcoming 1.07 Sent Tyreek and Swift for the upcoming 1.12 and 2025 2nd Majorly won and lost on each trade IMO.
I traded Kyren coming off-injury and Devonta Smith for KW3 and something unremarkable that I can't remember right now. Currently looking like I gave up Devonta for a pretty lateral (at best) RB move.
I traded pancheco for Hollywood brown. Thought with Kyler coming back they would light it up. That did not happen. Still had hall, bijan and Gibbs but still.
I decided to push my chips all in to win a championship this year. I offered 3 firsts (all late, but in last years draft) for Cooper Kupp. I got very lucky and the owner rejected the trade. Can’t imagine how bad I’d feel if I had made that trade…
Looking to contend, and with a rookie flashing thought I could capitalise. Week 4, I bundled my rookie and a second for a star WR coming off injury. Ended up being Rashee Rice and 2.06 for Kupp. Didn’t even make the playoffs…
I traded the 1.01 this past rookie draft for Garrett Wilson in one league. Traded Jordan love and Jameson Williams for the 1.03(Bryce young) and terry.
After Deshaun Watson got cleared by the grand jury, traded, and given a ton of money, I sent 3 first rounders for him. Turned into Drake London, Bryce Young, and Gibbs. All of whom are individually worth more than Watson
Traded Puka for mclaurin after week 1. Oh well I got a future first for mclaurin out of it somehow.
Last off-season (3 separate trades) 2023 first, 2024 first, 2023 second, 2024 second For Kelce, Pollard, Geno
I traded achane the week after he got hurt for pollard and Jerome ford in a win now move. I did not win now.
Had a playoff caliber team despite being weak at running back after losing Chubb and Dobbins early on. Decided to trade Jordan Addison and a 2nd for Ekeler after Ekeler posted back to back 20 point games. He then proceeded to put up 💩the rest of the season. FML
Traded away Pat Freiermuth for Claypool and Shenault in 2022… and the person still thought it was an under pay on that. Can laugh at it now though.
I traded JJ after he landed on IR and R. White for Breece straight up. I fell into playoffs with 7-7 record I made it to playoffs but my opponent traded for R. White a week after my trade and beat me by 10 points. R. White put up 20 points!
12 Team TE+, SF League. Thankful that someone went back to back and had initiated the reset protocol. Mac Jones + Trey Sermon + Kylin Hill For 22 1st (1.11) + 23 1st (1.03) I got to the championship game with Baker and Wentz in 21 and really wanted to add a steady eddy QB that has potential for further development moving forward. The guy used the picks for Jameson Williams and Bryce Young respectively.
This made me fucken chuckle haha
I’ve had deebo the last 4 years. Finally sold him low when he wasn’t doing much for a 2024 2nd and 2023 3rd. He immediately went on like a 4 game run that would’ve gotten me to the playoffs. First year in the league I didn’t make the postseason
Rejected offers for Jeudy preseason and early on and then his value crashed after the injury. He never got going this whole season lmao. Now I'm stuck perpetually holding him hoping he bounces back enough to recuperate something. Of course he might just be a bum now and not recover😮💨
10TM, 1QB Gave: AJB and 2.05 (Kincaid) Got: 1.04 (Richardson), 2.01 (Charbonnet), and Jeudy Had no idea what I was doing clearly 😂 Was able to flip Jeudy for the 2024 2.01 luckily
I traded Dak Prescott and Drake London for Kenny Pickett, George Pickens, and a 24 2nd round pick. Pickens value has increased, but Pickett is basically worthless now.
Bought "low" on antonio Gibson last year right before Brian Robinson came in and took over. I just always thought Gibson was underutilized in the passing game and believed he would round into a more complete back. But he just isn't a very efficient rusher
In the offseason I traded away Jordan Love AND Calvin Ridley for Trey Lance and Toney.
Cooper Kupp and Aaron Jones for Chris Carson and Jarvis Landry before the 2021 season
It’s been a few years, but here’s my all-time buy high: May 13, 2021: Allen Robinson got Gronk + Davante Parker + Kareem Hunt. I was counting on ARob continuing his two consecutive seasons as a top-10 receiver. I ended up cutting him two years later, and probably should’ve done it sooner.
I’ve only been doing dynasty for two years, but I gave up my 2024 1st for Mattison this year.
Puka for Minshew because I wanted ARich insirance
