In response to "Ding! -- nm" by Bacon

if that is the case, then all the owners are dumb.

trade her a 3rd rounder, improve your keeper list, she gets something for nothing.

Everyone had a shot at it.

alternatively, there are so many good players available to get in the first round that it's not worth giving up a pick to get one that's "good enough" - Reagen Aug 20, 07:54 6
- a first round pick, sure, but giving up a 3 to upgrade your keepers? - groiny Aug 20, 07:55 5
  - I added Peyton Manning, Julius Thomas and Roddy White as keepers. In total, I moved from pick 1-6 to 4-10. - David Aug 20, 08:00 1
    - well, obviously, you get a kicker pick back. nm -- nm - groiny Aug 20, 08:01
  - Even that. - Reagen Aug 20, 07:57
  - I may have overpaid for Marshall in the eyes of others, but my starting WRs are no brainer plays every week, and I like that security. -- nm - Shaun Aug 20, 07:57 1
    - WR is tough, there are so many to choose from, but I think you will get great value from Marshall. - groiny Aug 20, 08:00
All depends. - Inigo Aug 20, 07:52 1
- right, that is what I said, but also, teams with picks 1-4, probably have less talent - groiny Aug 20, 07:54
Assuming she would take a third rounder. I would do that - Bacon Aug 20, 07:50 13
- She's always in the gunning for winning it all. I don't help her unless the trade is very lopsided in my favor - Bacon Aug 20, 07:51 12
  - To a larger point, Samara is the best overall player across the three leagues over the past few seasons. - David Aug 20, 07:55 7
    - Also this is the main reason I am willing to wait for her. I want to be the best so I want to compete against the best. - Bacon Aug 20, 08:00
    - easily -- nm - Beaker Aug 20, 07:59
    - interesting, who are the top 5? -- nm - groiny Aug 20, 07:56 3
      - I've never really thought about it because the #1 choice is so obvious. - David Aug 20, 07:58 2
        
        ML would be my 2nd pick....he almost always has either #1 or #2 in points. - Will Hunting Aug 20, 07:59 1
        
        Amoxy would be in the discussion. I don't know about records but he always has the best keeper options each season. -- nm - David Aug 20, 08:01
    - I agree with this 100% -- nm - Bacon Aug 20, 07:56
  - as am I, and I would trade any cut for any pick 100% of the time. - groiny Aug 20, 07:53 3
    - Yeah, not all the owners in the league act that way. (Though I do find that post-Tfox, we're down to a handful of aggressive traders.) - Name Withheld By Request Aug 20, 07:55 1
      - usually I am very aggressive. I just like my keepers a little more and have a high pick. - Bacon Aug 20, 07:58
    - I won't help her beat me. I am drafting 4th, I will get one of my players -- nm - Bacon Aug 20, 07:55
