Title: Trade Talk Thread
Post by StegRock on Sep 24^th, 2007, 7:28pm

This is a thread on which we can all conduct some general trade talk,... make general trade proposals, talk about "what's available" on our teams, announce trades pulled off, etc., etc. Let's maintain this one as our trade talk thread henceforth. I'm actually going to kick it off right now...

...

I am in the market for at least one extra free-agent pick this UPCOMING week, Week 4 that is. Depending on your position in the standings, it could be a first or second rounder. In return, there are various options, but in terms of free-agent picks, probably a second-round pick or two... as I'm probably looking at having the first or second pick every week and that's a little more pricey. But, it ultimately depends on your position in the standings and what you want in return or, in the case of free-agent picks, when you want it/them. I also have low-end players to offer in return and, I suppose, draft picks are always an option (though I have NO first-rounder in 2008, 2009 or 2010). Also, I kind of wouldn't mind getting my hands on two extra ones this week, if one of them is high "enough". I hope someone's interested... :-/

With all of the QB injuries/benchings some of you guys need some help at that position. I am here to help.
I am looking to trade one of my QBs.

Brady would cost way too much, so don't bother.

I am looking for a rb that can actually get TDs and/or a really good WR. I will also look at players and prospots/draftpicks, and the like.

I want #1 guys...Starters, not RBBC guys.

Trout no thanks on that deal we talked about last night. we are at a good starting place though.

I had to reply to this post. Joe, I always have fun giving you crap, and this is no exception.

First off, I don't think it is necessary to preempt your discussions on trading with the information that you want something good in return. In most cases, someone wanting to make a trade with you probably knows in advance that you are not willing to accept a $10 gift certificate to Bed Bath & Beyond for one of your players. Although, after looking at the QBs you are offering, you might actually consider it.

So, let's look at what is available. You have taken Brady off the table, an understandable move. What is left?

Jon Kitna
You win here. He is worth your asking price.

Chad Pennington
Really? A #1 RB or #1 WR? Maybe...a #1 kicker or TE.

Daunte Culpepper
This guy is your downfall. You are in total man-love with him. So much so, you named your GBRFL team after him several times, along with your WNBA fantasy team. He was playing against Miami and was juiced. Simply put, he is poo. Again, a #1 kicker or TE. Or a couple of free agent picks.

John Beck
Isn't he a novelist? I will give you a genuine Ronald McDonald autograph that one of my kids received at a birthday party (if I can find it). If not, I will dig up a Happy Meal toy out of one of our cars.

J. T. O'Sullivan
O'Shit. A great candidate for the Bed Bath & Beyond cert.

IN SUMMATION:
This is probably how your post should have read:

I am looking to trade Jon Kitna. Let me know.

I don't need a QB, but am willing to trade one if anyone is interested. looking for a RB

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by StegRock on Oct 12^th, 2007, 12:58am

I've been contacted now about the Patriots by not a few of you... Here's the deal...

The Bears were traded once during the offseason from Markie to Joe. That was the trade that netted Markie a first-rounder and Bernard Berrian. BUT, the Bears were also traded from Trout to Markie during the season... during crunch time. Along with the Bears Markie got Brandon Jacobs. In return Trout got Terrell Owens, a blue chipper, and David Garrard, who is worth mentioning (the other two players they exchanged are not even worth mentioning). The main point being, Trout got a blue chipper.

Given my team's "position" [smiley=bendover.gif] in the standings (although I did just beat our league leader [smiley=whistle.gif] ... ;)), for the '07 Patriots I want something commensurate to what Trout got for the '06 Bears. Like DT last year, I'd be willing to add a player like Derrick Ward into the deal. I just want to come out with a "real" player in the deal,... preferably a receiver (the position most easy to part with, frankly speaking). That's all. See what you can do... Make me an offer... [smiley=deal.gif] I can't refuse. [smiley=hellyeafunny.gif]

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by StegRock on Oct 28^th, 2007, 1:50am

Anybody interested in my first pick of free-agency this week,... i.e. JESSE CHATMAN!!! That's who I am taking, but I am willing to move the pick/HIM if the deal is decent. I know it's VERY late in the going here. I didn't want to make this post before I had the results up for the week. (Again, sorry for the holdup. :-[) BUT, I still have a LOT of Week 8 stuff still ahead of me tonight. [smiley=builder.gif] I WILL be awake until (at least) 2:00 a.m. my time here in Hawaii. So, I don't know how much I'll wake up before gametime, BUT, if you read this and are interested in dealing, even though it may be a crazy hour for me, give me a call... at my HOME phone. [smiley=phone.gif] You all are welcome to give me a buzz ANY TIME tonight. I'll leave my ringer on until I go to bed. Once I do, no worries, it'll be off. Again, you want the pick/JESSE CHATMAN, you got all night (my time) to give me a call. Over and out... [smiley=onit.gif] ... [smiley=tired.gif]

I am looking to drop Holt, Colston or Crayton.

I am also looking to get another free agent pick this. If someone wants to swap picks for a future week, let me know.

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by IbdFunk on Nov 1^st, 2007, 10:00pm

I know this is not on the topic of trades but i need to chime in. Just want to say that i dont give a shit where my team places this year but regardless i must pick myself for the gm of the year thus far.

1) Injuries "which i know everyone has" Jake Delhome gone for the year, Javon Walker basically gone for the year, Rudi Johnson out 6 weeks, Mike Pittman gone for year. Shit DF in San Fran

2) Pick ups- Washington DF who was great until a week ago but picked up the Saints which led me to beat the top team in Hahn. Wes Walker pick up, Trent Edwards Pick up, Cleo Lemon another Free Agent Pickup, Oh Bobby Engram who was a stud the last few weeks. I know i am at that top of the standings yet but with all things considered when losing, it has not been by much with exception to one week in which my entire team was off on byes. Got Rudi coming back this week, some young qbs in the pipeline to possibly trade you one of you, things are looking up!

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by T-Rave on Nov 2^nd, 2007, 4:22pm

Well, I don't think I "must pick myself for the gm of the year thus far." But I don't think in either of the two categories you mentioned, Danny, have you done a better job than I have, although probably others have. Here are the categories:

1) Injuries: I have 3 running backs on IR for the year -- Ronnie Brown, Deuce McAllister, and DeShawn Wynn. That is an entire starting lineup's worth of running backs. Marvin Harrison, as of Sunday, will have missed about half the year.

2) Pickups: I grant you that Wes Welker was a GREAT pickup. But Cleo Lemon -- come on, who thinks he'll do anything? NO ONE. Trent Edwards -- not bad, but not great. How does his future look this year? I picked up (1) DeShawn Wynn, who was the main back until he went on IR; (2) Kenny Watson, who has started for Cincinnatti for several weeks now (a no-brainer pickup, kinda like Edwards and Lemon); (3) Derrick Mason IN THE DRAFT, which looks like the genius move of the year; (4) Jason Witten (I must give props to Steg here: both of us picked up tight ends the same week -- he got Dallas Clark and I got Wittten), who is averaging 6 catches and 80 yards per game, with 4 tds in 7 games, and (5) the New York Giants defense, which has turned out to be a wonderful fantasy defense, on par with, if not better than, the Ravens (so far this year).

I assume others among us can list the same number of quality pickups (and injuires overcome) which makes it hard to claim you're the gm of the year. Of course, Danny, we have to recognize the fact that since we were at the bottom of the standings for a while, we got first dibs on obvious pickups (like Trent Edwards, Cleo Lemon, Kenny Watson, and DeShawn Wynn).

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by IbdFunk on Nov 2^nd, 2007, 10:33pm

Cleo Lemon blows i admit, but he has like 4 rushing tds in the last 3 games. He helped out with playing only 2 rbs the last few weeks. Bobby Engram has also been solid the last 2 weeks and is becoming Seattles leading rc over the last 3 weeks. T, you have felt my pain this season, maybe even worse, at least i am not the only one. We will see how this things turns out at the end.

Post by DB on Nov 5^th, 2007, 8:44pm

You? GM of the year? Who's the genius that drafted Adrian Peterson!

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by IbdFunk on Nov 5^th, 2007, 9:11pm

That is what you get when you sucked for so long, the #1 and#2 pick. He was unavailable for anyone else to get. It is not like you picked up Bobby Engram as a free agent pick, or Wes Walker, or Trent Edwards ect. I do hope you win this year to be honest, i know i do not have a shot but as long as Joe P and Trout dont win i am good with that. I just want to win enough games not to give hahn a lotto pick of mine in the first round.

While the rest of Danny's ramblings is myopic bullshit,... I kind of appreciate THIS spirit...

Hey Dan-O...I'm sure I won't win again... unless I can play the self-professed(and obsessed) G(for genius) M (for moron) GM of the year(namely you asshole) every week. I've spanked your bitch squad with all your tremendous FA pu's by a 69-7 tally. You sukkk.
As for the topic at hand, I am interested in a QB and RB...outside of Moss(a throw-in from Feder..thanks GM) any player is avail...Peace.

Trout you are my hero!! For that, my gift to you is a lifetime supply of "Stanley Cleaners", they can come and steam clean the dust off of your trophy case every year when you fail to win. I am so honored that beating my ass makes yor season complete. I am sure at the end of the day you wont be above 500 like always. You will place like 6th, congrads for the monumental victory.

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by Flesh is Fantasy on Nov 9^th, 2007, 12:25am

Feder..I'm actually 34 games over .500(which is coincidentally your SAT score) during the last 9 years...with...count it..ZERO losing seasons. 500 is almost the amount of money you lost to me 2 seasons ago when you sucked as usual. Outside of your obviously lucky championship seasons, have you ever finished above.500? Sorry, to the rest of the group on this "trade-talk" thread.

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread

Does those numbers include a 1000% win season in which you quit the league because your team sucked so bad?

My first round f/a pick is available if anyone wants it this week. (Since I have no idea how I did last week, I do not know where it falls.)

Also, if anyone is interested in making a deal today(since today is the trade deadline), the best way is to reach me by my cell....703-346-1297.

Title: Re: Trade Talk Thread
Post by StegRock on Nov 29^th, 2007, 3:00pm

Time is surely a waning, and I am not really in a position to do much "hammering out" of a deal. [smiley=deal.gif] Right up until kickoff, I will be amidst the heart of my workday. BUT, if anyone wants RB Adrian Peterson of the Bears or, in other words, my first pick in free-agency this week, he/it is gettable for the right price. The best way to do this would probably be by private messanger here on "the Gridiron". Alternately, my office number is (808)923-8009. It's fine to call, but I won't be able to give you too much time. So, the more specific and targeted you can be, the better! And, PLEASE, if you are interested do NOT leave it to the last minute. Once it hits 8:00, 3:00 my time, my lineup is IN, and that's that for that. I ain't gonna sweat out any last-minute splitting of hairs.

Out,
Steg

The trade is just a second round pick for a protection spot. The trade would be uneven if you got his last pick too.

Here we go boys. For any of you in the running that want to win it all this year. I have the guy/guys that you need to put you over the top.

I have 3-5 players that will put you over the top. I am still looking to build for next year. With that said you are looking to win it all THIS year!
I have your missing piece or pieces:

Matt Cassell is on FIRE!!!! Not to mention will get a starting gig next year for some team.
Kevin Walter ....all he does is get 90 yds and TDs week after week
LT2 aging, but still has 2-3 solid years left. Plus he gets catches too.
Lance Moore... See "Walter" with a much better QB

BOLDIN IS GOLDEN!!! I want a lot for this guy.

Mewelde Moore...aka...the Sleeper/wildcard. With Fast Willie ailing, not being able to finsh games he starts, and talks of IR for him, this guy should be a stud to finish the season, not to mention get a shot somewhere next year.

If interested then send me an offer.
I will be happy keeping all of them, as they will be protected next year.

I'm looking for young solid players, pro-spots, and High(er) draft picks...my lowest pick righth is a 5th round, hence the "higher(er)".

I also have the up and down Chi DEF, but they do have solid matchups the rest of the year, and I don't need a 1st round pick for them. I think Pittsburg DEF is a better move for you there.

I do not need a RB in return either.

All 3 of these guys are arguably top 5 RBs.
