Sterling Archer Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 I've currently got OBJ slotted in for the 1.3 in K1 though that could change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 That's who I'd have in mind for 1.03 as well. There are lots of guys I want, delighted to have 8,9 and 15 to go with the 1.02 as I know targets are going to fall to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt.Speirs Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 What I would give for a first rounder in kb1. That ain't gonna happen though. What's your thoughts on pitta v Rudolph. Love Rudolphs upside in the new offense. Pitta is a dependable target, but will have targets eaten by Daniels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Kaep in bother with the fuzz in Miami it seems. Sources tell TMZ that Colin Kaepernick is being investigated for a possible sexual assault at a hotel in Miami. Per TMZ, the alleged incident took place at the Viceroy Hotel earlier this month. The investigation is at its beginning stages and no charges have been filed against Kaepernick or anyone else. TMZ says they've reached out to both the Niners and Kaepernick's agent, but have not gotten a response from either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In general, most teams in the league will only have a couple of million to spend once rookies are signed, so Alshon would be far more valuable to most other teams in the league than Graham.

Martin Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Not been on here for a while but bit disappointed to see a fair bit of abuse headed my way for trade offers. Looking back I have made some bad offers but if you dont ask, you dont get and I wouldnt have got some players/picks without it. I feel at least I'm trying to spark a bit of trade talk with sending out offers which could turn into something along the line through negotiation and considering the lack of trades in kb and the 5-1 league, I thought the possibility of trades might interest everyone. Its something I have always tried to do looking back over the years the amount of trades I have done. If someone rejects an offer and doesnt say anything, I'm not to know its a definite no for a pick/ player, so thats why I will often offer a different player for the pick/ player. But if someone says they arent available, then I just leave it. I've had some bad offers sent my way too but feel a bit shit that its only mine being pointed out. Just thought I would try and defend myself Apologies if its a bit of a rant but hope you get what I mean. There's loads in both of ours..... Think Martin's taking a bit of unnecessary stick here...

If you really wanted to spark trade talks then I'd expect you would contact all the teams in the league. As it is, chargers, steelers, Bucs and I have received only a handful of offers from you in the last year. Is that because you know you might actually have to pay a fair price to get a deal done and would rather take advantage of the owners that don't keep up to date with things as much? Also, if the Wayne/Moreno for 1.4/DJax offer that Ross posted earlier is genuine then it's one of the worst I've ever seen. It's crap like that that leaves a sour taste in people's mouths when it comes to how you conduct your trade business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oi saying I don't know anything tbf Martin some of your deals are ok, nothing wrong with going under slightly to get the best deal. But when you continuously put really bad ones in it gets abit disrespectful for want of a better word. With regards to 5 -1 league, yes it's quiet but you have to take some if the blame for that as well when you were not involved or updating it. So we need to have a look at how we can generate more interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's crap like that that leaves a sour taste in people's mouths when it comes to how you conduct your trade business. With the teams you mention, the only players I'm interested from them is the very best players, so there's no point in making an offer as I wouldn't have a hope in hell of getting them as I don't have the ammo to get them, so why bother? I've asked you before what players you would want from me and it's only Calvin, who I'm not trading so theres little chance of any deal being done between us. I've had many trades with the Chargers over the years and although I would like a few WR's there, I know roughly what the asking price which is too much for me. The Bucs have Bryant, Demariyus and Charles who I can't afford and the Steelers its the same with Lacy, Bernard and Gronkowski. Plus I've also talked to you and the Chargers about the draft picks and know what the rough asking price is, so I'm not avoiding anyone. I admit that was a bad offer, we all make them from time to time but it was when Jackson didn't have a team and the stories about him weren't looking good. I thought your offer yesterday offering me a journeyman in Rashad Jennings for 1.09 was particularly bad but I would rather get offers than not, so I don't mind you sending me that. People have different opinions on fantasy players, thats what makes it the game that it is.

So we need to have a look at how we can generate more interest. I just feel that its all about negotiation, I'm not expecting a lot of deals to go through right away but I'm sure we all send offers where we hope we can go under what we think.? Honestly I don't mean to put in bad ones and with the 5-1 league, although I hadn't updated to the 2014 league immediately, there just hasnt been much happening and thats going back to early on in the league, there's not been many trades going through and apart from sending trades to make people respond, I don't see how I can do any more with generating interest.

Martin Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 You have plenty ammo to make deals though, you've got early draft picks in 2 years as well as a host of good players. The early draft picks help but I'm really needing to keep them because my team is getting older, especially with my main players so got to keep hold of them as I've probably only got a short window to challenge in the near future. Although I've got good players, there's not many in demand and although folk like Olsen and Edelman put up good scores, they aren't really the types that people want because they aren't the exciting picks, even though they might be the most targeted players on their teams next year. Martin, I've no problem with getting some questionable offers, it's better than getting none at the end of the day, but a few of them have been getting a bit daft. It's no big drama though.

Like I say, it's no drama, I get some worse offers in my other league so I wouldn't worry about it! No worries Ross, its something I will learn from and I'll be extremely careful in the near future, although apologies if a bad trade offer occurs every once in a while! Let's face it, its bound to Its difficult to get any discussion going in the off season and because of the offers, I understand where you are coming from and its reassuring to know there has been someone out there worse than me! I've no problem with offers that are asking for a bit more than a players actual value, we all want to win trades and get some added value. But a line has to be drawn between questionable trade offers where value can be debated, and offers that are clearly so one sided that the person making it knows that if it's accepted then he's essentially ripping the other guy off. The thing is we all pretty much know what we are doing by now with this being our 4th (or is it 5th) year of doing this, so I think everyone is all pretty good in putting a value to specific players, I mean when was the last time there was a truly one sided trade in KB?
