I've been doing redrafters, sometimes with a few keepers for 30 years but I've just bought an orphan team in a dynasty league that is established. This video was helpful but I'll clearly need more material.
Would be cool if you did separate trade calculators for different size leagues, never seen one for 16 team dynasty leagues.. values are way different to a 10 team league
Drafted the 1.02 the 1.03 (stroud and young) continually traded back my 1st rounder to get the 3.04 where Kyler fell. (Gaining 3 24 1sts) Also went on to take Pickett, Mac Jones, and Brissett
With the influx of new dynasty players (thank you for finally getting me into SF btw), I can only imagine some of the shit that’s going to go down in some of those leagues lol. However, I’d be more than happy to trade up for a 2nd first round startup pick for the right price, so long as I get the same amount of picks back in return. If I can give my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th for a 1st, 6th, and 7th, then I’m doing that every day of the week and twice on Sunday’s. Edit: I appreciate your bylaw including teams needing to pay for future years if they want to trade away future assets.
I actually instituted a spin on the stephien rule in basketball. Thou shalt not trade your first round pick in consecutive years. i.e if you trade your 2023 first, you must maintain your 2024 first unless you regain possession of your first at a later date. It also adds more value to trading for your pick back and makes sure you really strategize that decision.
I went young in my startup draft. I’m content with not winning for a year or two. Didn’t draft a single guy over the age of 24. Key pieces like TLaw, JT, and Tee Higgins along with Pierce BRobJr, Jamo, Burks, Bateman and McBride and Chig. I also traded this years 1st for a 2024 1st and and 2023 2nd.
Me and 10 of my friends just started one last year and we are coming up on our first Rookie draft and the main problem I’ve found is 3-5 guys in our league don’t understand that it’s a dynasty league and value the there players off of re-draft value and it gets hard to trade with because they do not like Rookie picks
I traded Lamar, a 24 first, and the 2023 rookie 2.02 for Josh Allen in a 12 team SF start 9 during the startup. So I broke the first rule, however I feel like I didn’t pay an arm and a leg for that
@@lesontime yeah looking back, probably shouldn’t have been as spooked by the Lamar contract disputes but all in all I got Josh Allen on a team with kyler, Mandrews, and 6 first round picks along with QJ, Kirk, and marquise brown. I think I’ll be alright
Just finished our draft in BDGE-11. I traded back a bunch and ended up with a 2nd-3rd-(2)4th-(5)5th round picks, bit of youth and vets. Going to be competitive this year and have a good outlook for later seasons. Dumping all value for a singular piece never appealed to me.
I’m league 11. Sold my startup 2/3/4/2024 1st for 1/6/7….. I was able to grab Tlaw to pair with hurts and with my other picks 6/7, I got Aaron jones/dmont. My starting lineup is Hurts, Tlaw, d Henry, cook, Aaron jones, dmont, Davante Adams, Diontae Johnson, McBride, jk dobbins with a pretty solid bench….. win now mode….. $900 to 1st and $300 to 2nd
10 team 2 QB league start 11. I already have Josh Allen/Hurts but I have no QB3 and am extremely lacking at RB and not great at WR. Who should I take at 1.02, 1.03, 1.04 and 1.08? Also heard Gibbs might be a bad pick that high
Weighing the acension of a player/ vs the peak of a player about to go down hill. Knowing how long a player has value on your squad is key,are we letting Derrick Henry die on our squad or do we want a young player that has potential?
Aye, love the content, man. Definitely skipped the intro, thanks for the timestamps! Everyone gets sick don't need to hear about yours 😂 oxymoronic cause who cares about my opinion but keep killin it
In a 32 team 1 QB I got blessed up by getting the 29th pick, I then traded my 2nd and 3rd for the 23rd because guy in the clock didn’t like the values there, so I got Metcalf and Jacobs in a 32 team 💪🏻💪🏻
@@MrMinionMoney Depends on how many teams, he is usually a round 3 dynasty RB in 1 QB, and he could be an rb1 for the next 2-3 years which is pretty solid, and could help you win leagues
I have the 1.01 in this years superflex dynasty draft. I need a QB (I only have Fields, Wentz and Heineke... i had Brady but he retired. So i desperately need QB. Do i draft Young or Stroud and hope they hit? Or do i draft Bijan and use him as trade bait. My other RBs are CMC, Dameon Pierce,Montgomery, Herbert, Edmonds.
I think blindly not trading up is not great advice. For example, Scott Connor has a fantastic guide on how to build a team around trading up to get a second 1st round pick. Yes, it only works if you’re doing to to get a QB who will never be on the market after the draft, but that’s kind of the point. I traded my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round startup pick for the 1.01, 7th and 9th startup pick. The picks I traded away became Waddle, Dak, and ETN. Would you accept that for Mahomes on a SF league? I wouldn’t. I kept my 24 first so I have the leverage to use it later
Why would you make the team receiving the future picks pay in advance? They are already incentivize to stay because they would have a stock pile of picks and already paying for year 1 without a chance to win…
Because they can leave, and the replacement may not like it. So if the original pays, the replacement only has to eat the trade, not both the trade and pay the fee. I realize this is a debatable POV, but that's what I think the rationale is.
@@Jbd831 replacements are easy to find when the buy in is free or low, but higher buy ins to fantasy leagues means you have to have strict rules to ensure that people take it seriously.
Real trade that happened in one of my leagues : justin jefferson for 1.01 and jonathan taylor. That’s not « 6 1st rounders » but thats a pretty good deal…. Always be open to trades 😉
So I started dynasty 3 yrs ago. Had a horrible start up draft took hopkins and mahomes first 2 picks then it all went down hill except for my 7th rd justin Jefferson pick. So came in 7th in a 12 man league, first year but drafted horribly, so I felt the need to trade commodities. Hopkins and gage for Campbell b cooks and a first, then mahomes for d watson a first and second, then Mike William's, and tannehill for mostert and a first. So I had the 2nd, 5th, 6th, 8th picks and took etienne, Lawrence, sermon, waddle, st brown with 2.6, passed on chase for etienne, needed a rb to pair with at this point 1 of the 2 players I had left from original draft, fournette. Etienne hurt I come in 2nd to last with a lottery I get 1st pick, and decide I need to get my 2nd back, so j. Meyers for the 13th pick. Which became Pickens. So Lawrence, hall, etienne, Jefferson waddle st brown and Pickens at flex came in 2nd. The team did t perform like I hoped in championship game.
My qbs are Herbert, Goff, Pickett, love RBs: etienne, dmont, Dillon, a gibson, white I have 1.01,1.06,1.09 in a 12 team superflex. Do I take bijan or stroud/young at 1?

How to create a Nick Metaphor: Step 1: choose an object completely unrelated in any conceivable way to your subject matter. (Please read everything in quotation marks in Nick’s voice) “a trade calculator is like a water glass.” Step 2: completely misconstrue the purpose of your chosen object. “The purpose of a water glass is to enhance the smell of your water.” Step 3: explain how it works in your metaphor because you’ve just completely subverted the working knowledge base of your audience and subtly thrown them all into cognitive dissonance. “If your water stinks like fish, put it in a glass and now it smells like an open air fish market on ‘final sale day’ in July. If you water smells like… I don’t know… fuckin roses, well now it smells like an entire botanical garden.” Step 4: get lost in your own metaphor. Catch yourself after it’s way too late. “Some smells take you back to your grandma’s kitchen when life was simple and you had fewer crushing responsibilities. Some smells take you back to when you hit rock bottom, woke up in an alley with a dead hooker on your lap and a needle in your teeth… *brief pause* anyway, where was I going with that?” Step 5: bring it home with a solid joke, inform the audience that they do, in fact, get what your saying, and move on as if it all went according to plan. “Most of y’all probably have no fuckin clue what I just said, but that’s fine. Metaphors aren’t my meta-forté, but y’all get what I’m saying.”
i disagree with the first one. trading up into the first can be a good strategy, especially if you keep your future firsts and get some later picks (7-12) back. double elite QB is a huge advantage. especially in shallower formats
@@bradenyt I sold off most of my depth to secure my main people as JHerbert, JT, Hall, 1.01, Chase, DHop, Pickens, 1.02, and the Freier. 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, and 1 flex(transitioning to 2 flex next year)
Last year I cheesed the league and traded for the 1.01, 1.02, 1.03 1.05 and 1.06. Only regret was I took Burks over Olave. I ended with Walker, Hall, London, Wilson and Burks
Agree. We have auction rookie drafts every year and FAAB for FA and then a salary cap that goes up each year at the same % as the league. The price you get your player at is his salary until he gets cut. If you trade, salary goes with the player. And during the draft you can only spend what you have available in cap space.
Bad Start up pick trades are easiest way to destroy the league before the draft is even done. If I am a commish, I won't allow. Too many pick pockets, who fleece idiots.
yeah i made a video last year on how to setup a dynasty league so it doesn't get ruined and offered 3-4 suggestions to limit trades during the startup draft
