My Sims-Walker and Royal plus picks for Fitz?? WHIR

Postby JMAC IS BACK » Tue Oct 19, 2010 11:58 pm

In a Dynasty 12 team PPR league.
Sims-Walker, Royal, 2011 #1 and 2012 #1 for Fitz?? As of now I will finish ( hopefully) in the 10-12 pick range.
My RB I start are Mathews, SJax, and MJD, my WR I start are Wallace and a choice between TO, Royal, Sims-Walker, etc ( Also have VJ on my roster)
I am not a huge fan of picks in a non IDP league, what are your thoughts on adding an elite wr like Fitz for that type of package??

WHIR, thanks

I'll be honest, I'm not the best person to give advice when it involves draft picks. But I can tell you this. In my opinion, Fitz isn't a top 10 WR, probably closer near the #20 WR. He plays on a really bad team, and has an undrafted rookie QB throwing to him. Defenses are showing him all kinds of crazy double coverage. Sims Walker and Royal aren't really worth much, but it sounds like those picks are pretty valuable. I don't really know anything about trading picks because I always play in leagues where we do a fresh draft after each season. But if those picks are valuable, don't do it. Look towards another WR. In all honesty, your better of dealing for a different WR.

i agree with the above, Fitz is not an elite WR anymore, at least until Arizona can get some sort of QB that can run the offense efficiently. It seems like the other party would be trading more for the picks then the players anyway, so I'd say set your target a little higher then Fitz.

I don't know a whole lot about Dynasty Leagues either but I'd have to say that if your planning on making a push for the Super Bowl this year then I don't see why you shouldn't throw in your #1 pick next year. Your team looks very solid and VJax should return to AT LEAST WR #2 status when he returns. While I agree that Fitz isn't a top 10 wr... that only really rings true for this year. He actually didn't look bad against the Saints and Fitz has put up decent enough numbers with absolutely no QBs. I'd say make a push for Fitz because he is a guy who will succeed no matter who is throwing him the ball. Hell between Anderson and Hall hes still on pace for 963 yards and 7 TDs, not to mention he still has to play Seattle 2 times along with a relatively week passing schedule. If your in a PPR then he's actually been a solid number 2/3 WR with big play upside. He will only continue to produce better as Max Hall develops. I say make this move if you can because he'll be an Elite WR again either the end of this year or next year.

I'd do it. The players you're losing are flex options, and Fitz is easily worth those picks in dynasty.

Without knowing how many players are kept from 1yr to the next, the #1 picks you're giving up really don't help in determining the value of this trade. If a #1 pick is equavillant to a 3rd round pick in redraft leagues, then I think I might do this trade, but only for the 2011 pick. If it's closer to a 6th round pick, then it changes things a little.

In any case, with the QB throwing to Fitz, he is a "very good" WR, not elite. That being said, I think I'd do this trade, but drop off the 2nd pick.

Thanks for the help with mine. Let me know if you can help with my follow up question:

I'm not a fan. I think you are overpaying for Fitz. Try to rework the deal...
