In response to "Kelce is worth a lot, but if David wants to keep 10, he would have to throw eight of the people he wants to keep back into the draft pool. " by crash davis

It’s not trading for the 1st pick post-keeper…it’s 2 different transactions. A 3rd for Kelce. Then an 11th for keeping Kelce as your 10th pick having kept 10 players.

Hunting's post is super-duper-mega-wrong. -- nm - The Allfather Jan 3, 13:31 1
- so a normal Hunting post, then -- nm - groiny Jan 3, 13:49
If this is possible, I'll give you the fifth overall pick for Kelce right now. But I don't think it is possible. -- nm - crash davis Jan 3, 13:04 5
- Oh, we execute the trade right now before we announce our keepers? Lets do it! -- nm - crash davis Jan 3, 13:10 4
  - I think we need clarification because there’s a large gap in potentials here. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 3, 13:12 3
    - That we do, but if it is possible to trade draft picks before the keeper round, I'm offering up my #1 -- nm - crash davis Jan 3, 13:13 2
      - Crash, what you should be doing right now... - The Allfather Jan 3, 13:39 1
        
        yep, I think Michael Thomas is my best offer -- nm - crash davis Jan 3, 14:04
We'll need David to weigh in on this, now or later. - Strongbad Jan 3, 13:02 3
- If you trade a third round pick, you're saying you will only keep two players. - The Allfather Jan 3, 13:37 1
  - This makes sense. Thanks. -- nm - Strongbad Jan 3, 13:47
- Keepers are your highest picks. Otherwise, trades have no foundation. “I’ll take your first pick”. You keep 10 guys. I get an 11? - Will Hunting Jan 3, 13:08
This approach makes more sense to me, but to my understanding, as of the last time i brought it up, it hasn’t actually been determined how it will work going forward -- nm* - znufrii, exceeded expectations Jan 3, 13:01 7
- It was determined because some people made trades and needed clarification. - The Allfather Jan 3, 13:33 6
  - I'm with Will that it makes more sense the other way as he explains more specifically elsewhere in this thread. - znufrii Jan 3, 14:28 5
    - Trades have already been made for 2022. So, I don't follow your logic...and I definitely don't follow Hunting's. - The Allfather Jan 3, 14:38 4
      - I think that approach overcomplicates things, tbh. - znufrii Jan 3, 14:44 3
        
        Everyone doesn't start with a pick in each round. - The Allfather Jan 3, 14:50 2
        
        I understand just fine how you have constructed it. - znufrii Jan 3, 14:56
        
        No. You spent the first 12 rounds on keepers. They don’t magically appear depending on your keepers. Every pick is a choice. Keep or draft. Keep - Will Hunting Jan 3, 14:52
