Dynasty League trade

[Unsmooth-Moment]

I am kicking the idea of trading for Gronk. This IS a DYNASTY ppr league that has been around for 4 years.

This is the trade I am thinking about

I Get: Rob Gronk, TE

He Gets: Eric Decker, WR

My Team:

QB -Eli, Vick
RB1 - AP, LeShoure, Mike Goodson, Kendall Hunter, Robert Turbin
RB2 - DMC, Michael Bush, Jonathon Stewart, Beanie Wells (IR)
WR1 - Megatron, Antonio Brown, Justin Blackmon
WR2 - Greg Jennings, Kenny Britt, Cecil Shorts
WR/TE - Hakeem Nicks, Eric Decker
TE - Jimmy Graham, Dustin Keller
K - Crosby
6 IDP Starters + backups

I'm sure Decker will score more points overall, but as you can see my team is stacked and relying on Dustin Keller for a bye week fill in seems like a nightmare. Not to mention Gronk is 22 years old and this is a dynasty league.

Thoughts?

He didn't accept it. I'm sure I could have thrown some draft picks around, but he is looking for a WR1. THe Brown-Gronk trade is probably as close as he would go (and me willing). Like I said earlier, I dunno if I would be willing to do that. I would give Britt, but being that he is injured and hasn't shown anything this year, he probably is a bit undervalued.

I'm just shocked that you think Antonio Brown has this type of upside. Brown maybe will score 5 TDs. Gronk should beat him in just about every statistical category.

That's a complete no-brainer.

Gronk for Brown is far and away a one sided trade, especially in Dynasty.

Update: I ended up getting RG3 for a good price IMO. I added some needed youth to the QB spot and lost some depth that I could afford to lose.

I traded Vick, M.Bush (dude had Forte), E. Decker, R. Turbin (piece I didn't want to put in), D.Keller, and my 2nd/4th.

for

RG3 and Jacob Tamme

I then flipped my 2nd rounder for the short term Steven Jackson to start this week (DMC on a bye).

The roster is shaping up pretty nicely except that Jennings and Nicks are injured every week...
Current roster:

QB- RG3, Eli
RB1- AP, Steven Jackson, Kendall Hunter, Bryce Brown, Evan Royster
RB2- DMC, Mike Goodson, Mikel Leshoure, Jonathon Stewart, Beanie Wells (IR)
WR1- Megatron, A. Brown, Cecil Shorts
WR2- Hakeem Nicks, Kenny Britt, Eddie Royal
WR/TE- Greg Jennings, Justin Blackmon
TE- Jimmy Graham, Jacob Tamme
K - Mason Crosby
IDP - 11 players

From last year and the way I trade for future year draft picks (traded down and got Blackmon this year, etc.) I have an array of draft picks for this upcoming draft. Lostcause, have you been scouting prospects for the rookie draft? Should I be looking to bunch up a lot of my picks to get "that one guy" or is there solid talent throughout 12-20 players.

projected draft picks I currently have [(we have a 5 round rookie draft) with NFL style draft]
1.04
1.12 (my original pick)
2.02
traded 2.12 for Steven Jackson
3.01
3.12 (my original pick)
No pick in the 4th
5.01

For some reason draft picks are seriously undervalued in this league unless its a front end 1st. We are seeing more teams trade away older players for younger prospects etc. For the most part there are about 3 dominant teams and a bunch of no depth filled rosters. I am the only undefeated left, but because of Jennings and Nicks injuries and Megatron and DMC on bye, I will probably lose this week for sure.

Any trade where you get RGIII and only give up spare parts, is a good one.

Hopefully Washington will start drafting playmakers to put around him.
