Traded Away: E.Sanders & T.Gerhart, Received: A.Ellington & J.Hunter

Dynasty League (Standard Scoring)

- Hunter was drafted for only $4, so he is a potential bargain keeper
- "Buy Low" on Ellington -- Dwyer's stupidity could lead to more goal line carries
- I love Sanders, but Denver's offense is a "Flavor of the Week" style, never knowing who will be Manning's focus. I also have Julius Thomas, so I still have a piece of that lethal offense.
- I drafted Gerhart cheap, hoping for 300 carries for 900 yards and 8 TDs. That line is horrendous and they will play from behind, so I have no problem ditching him.

Valid reasoning? Additional thoughts?

Lots of people were high on Toby Gerhart this year, but i'm just not seeing it. I think this is a good trade. Hunter will start catching balls at some point, and Ellington is lighting in a bottle -- I guess that bottle's about 85% full due to nagging foot injury, but he's still tons better than Gerhart - and on a better offense. I wouldn't worry too much about losing Sanders since you upgraded your RB position. RB is one of the hardest positions to be strong at. WR's are replaceable unless you have one of the top 5-10 WR's.

Now with A.J. Green, M.Crabtree, J.Hunter, J.Gordon, and D.Adams. Thx for the feedback. I'm hoping for someone to disagree with my trade. I didn't see any reason not to roll with it.

the fact that it's a dynasty league, I like this trade. If it wasn't though, I'm not a fan. I agree about DEN's offense, but when you score 5 TD's a game, everyone gets a taste. Not a bad trade though. I have Hunter also and I'm patiently waiting for him to Alshon the league....fingers crossed

Alshon is a great verb!
