Just offering some FFA (free, friendly, advice). You could have improved your team by dealing for Gordon when I offered him and used your 2nd rounder on someone else, but whatever ... you got him anyway.

In the debate between T and D, D is right, period. Though the draft is fun, trades are the key! They allow you to proactively sculpt and craft your team. But, anyway, in the case being debated, it is about a matter of maximizing value.

| I agree with the principle. The case of Gordon in particular is messy, though. He didn't play until this past week, after our roster cuts. We didn't even know if he could play in regular season games until very recently.

| You gotta roll the dice... if you are going to sculpt your roster via trades (and not just be at the mercy of what falls to you via the draft and free-agency, which is what trades too tend to become when one is hyperfocused on "objective valuations"<--subjective-ish word used on purpose). In other words, and it is not just a throwaway comment,... NO guts, NO glory!

| That is a good pick. Gordon is done. Ekeler, though the "#1", may not be a true "#1" in kind (species). Jackson may be, and that current "1a/1b" situation may flip in Jackson's favor, even to the degree of his becoming the #1 and Ekeler's becoming the #2. With that said, Ekeler always seems to meet the call and rise when the opportunity presents itself.

| Fair enough. Not my preferred modus operandi, but then again I haven't won a championship in 13 years, so . . .

I don't know anything about Lock except that he went to Missouri and was a 2nd or 3rd rounder in the NFL draft. Best case scenario is that he is the Broncos QB of the future which is a premium in this league (wink, wink). Worst case scenario is that Beckham and AB flake out and I regret not drafting Landry.

Wow. I didn't realize Tyrell Williams was available. I missed that one. Would have taken him a few rounds ago.
