Pre Draft Trade (whir)

Postby Holein1 » Wed Aug 05, 2009 3:02 pm

I am in a 12 team keeper league (ppr = 1 ppr for wr and 0.5 ppr for rbs). You are not allowed to keep any players drafted in the first 3 rounds of the year before so it keeps alot of good players available.

I currently am keeping Forte (4th round keeper), Grant (10th rd) and Hightower (12th round).

I have a chance to trade Grant (10th round keeper) for Jennings (8th round keeper).

WOuld you do this?

I would do it. Grant's value takes a hit in a PPR league and Jennings will be a stud for a long time.

I would take Jennings for sure for Grant. You address a need and can draft a good RB right off the bat that will probably outperform Grant.

not sure i full y understand the situation, but I think that is ok to do, not sure why someone wants hightower though. Are you trading hightower and pick 2.01 for Johnson?
