What does the Bachelor and Fantasy Football have in common?
*Spoiler Alert of the Bachelor*
Trades can be a lot like love. Take for example last night’s The Bachelor Finale. Ben was in love with two girls, Jo-Jo and Lauren, but he could only marry one. After a difficult goodbye with Jo-Jo, who he admitted he could’ve happily married, he then chose Lauren. Though saying goodbye to Jo-Jo was difficult, it didn’t replace the giddiness and excitement he had when he proposed to Lauren. He knew, that the best move was to pick one. If he didn’t say goodbye, he would’ve lost both of them.
This is how it can feel with fantasy trades. We can fall in love with our players and fail to see that the best move is to say goodbye. It’s easy to fall in love with the players on your team because those are the guys you’re paying particularly close attention to. This means you know their strengths and weaknesses, and of course, the latest updates. However, it is important to not get too caught up with only the players on your team or those on your radar, but keep an eye open on all players that could potentially better your team. This is a difficult discipline, but if done correctly, is rewarding. This also means that sometimes a difficult goodbye means a beautiful marriage with another player.
Disclaimer: I understand the flippant nature of comparing marriage to fantasy football, but for the sake of the analogy, I thought it made for an interesting-enough article. I hope you enjoyed it!

Player Profile Friday: Free Agents Grades. After a dizzy FA, here are grades for all the teams’ signings. As for fantasy purposes, RB Lamar Miller to Hou (A-) and RB D. Martin resigning to TB (B-) received the highest grades. Whereas, QB B. Osweiler to Hou (D), QB C. Daniels to NYJ (D-) and WR Mohammad Sanu to Alt (D-) relieved the lowest grades. C.J. Anderson to Mia isn’t listed, but I think everyone else is included. Enjoy! https://www.profootballfocus.com/blog/2016/03/10/pro-nfl-free-agency-grading-every-deal/

Trade Talk Tuesday: Up-and-Comers
Up-and-Comers are the highest of risk and highest of reward. If they continue their efficient play, they could be stars. If they aren’t as efficient for the coming years, then you have a hole in your roster that you thought was filled. If you trade when this player’s value is high, you could cash in! However, if he ends up to be the real deal, then you hope that your return makes up for it.
The key is what you get in return for an up-and-comer. If you trade him for other young players with potential, the risk is the same for all parties. The approach makes sense if you think your up-and-comer is overrated and you don’t have the confidence that the so-called fantasy "experts" have in him. If this is the case, then go ahead and gamble by trading your risk for another risk (or risks).
Another approach, which is safer in nature, is trading for a proven veteran (or veterans) that you’ve coveted. Obviously, the ceiling for these proven vets aren’t high, but the trade-off is peace of mind. This is a good strategy for any team. It immediately improves an area of potential to an area of consistency.
Another approach is trading for a mixed bag. Get that vet you covet and also a less hyped up-and-comer and/or draft picks. A return of the mixed bag gives you a player that will immediately contribute and a player that could be on the rise and/or a coming draft pick--it’s fun all around!
Lastly, and the most common is to keep your up-and-comer. This means that you have weighed the risk/reward factors and decide to roll the dice. This happens for a couple of reasons. First, the owner had the foresight to see this player and his situation be successful and he wants to play it out. The second is that the right trade hasn’t come across the table. If an owner does his due diligence, then he can be pursuing and be initiating trades, or keep on negotiating a trade that he received.
If you are pursuing an up-and-comer, easily reverse these trades to create offers. Send out some feelers and see what the owner values; which is true for any trade. Up-and-comers are the most exciting players to receive because it gives you the potential for longevity.
Simply, up-and-comers are exciting, especially in trades. Don’t be afraid to deal your up-and-comers, just be smart. And don’t be afraid to pursue up-and-comers, just know it is high risk/high reward. Often, teams are willing to take that risk for it’s potential benefits!
Just remember, keep it fun!

Welcome to our very first “Trade Talk Tuesday!” This Tuesday we’ll be discussing “Droppables.” What are droppables? Good question! These are players that you can afford to cut with little or no afterthought.
Droppables you cut during the season for players in FA or out of necessity (i.e. - to fill another position because of bye or injury). In Dynasty, another reason to cut a droppable is to make room for rookies.
Yet, with some anticipation and luck, it might be possible to get some value from your droppables because one man’s droppable might be another man’s future flex!
Tips: If you have a droppable with hype (of any sort) or any kind of proven track record, you could offer him to a team in need of that position. The asking price shouldn’t be too high; be reasonable! Still, you might be able to get late draft pick or a player that you think has more upside. If the stars lineup in your favor, maybe both!
A droppable is also great add-on in trades. If you want to pursue a player that you covet, you can make an offer and throw in the droppable(s).
If that said trade is successful and you sent more players than you received, now you have empty spot(s) for rookies come draft day!
Remember, droppables are expendable so be creative and have fun!
