Trying to Trade for Le'Veon Bell: Proposals suggestions
Hello all, I'm thinking about proposing a trade to get Le'Veon Bell.

My team consists of:
Cam Newton, Marshawn Lynch, Mark Ingram, Latavius Murray, Julio Jones, DeAndre Hopkins, Julius Thomas, T.J. Yeldon, Marques Colston, Nelson Agholor, and Kendall Wright.

His team:
Ryan Tannehill, Le'Veon Bell, Justin Forsett, Jordy Nelson, Jordan Mathews, Travis Kelce, Joseph Randle, Brandon Marshall, Reggie Bush, Roddy White, and Charles Sims.

My trade angle is to offer him a decent RB and a WR, since he drafted Jordy on Sunday in the 2nd rd without knowing about the ACL injury. What package should I piece together?

I was thinking Ingram, Murray, or Yeldon plus Colston. I don't want to give up Hopkins, Julio, or Lynch. I like Murray more than Ingram, but Ingram's team will be in a better position each game to run the ball (better QB & less chance of playing catchup).

Standard scoring, non-PPR.

Our league only has 4 Bench spots, so there is some value out on the waiver wire to replenish my bench depth if I choose to send over two players: David Cobb, David Johnson, Darren McFadden, Fred Jackson, Malcolm Floyd, Brian Quick, and Eddie Royal are all available.

    So you want to get the best player in fantasy without giving up anything? Your team is fine as is, don't worry about it.

    More along the lines of looking to strengthen my roster by taking advantage of a team in need of a RB for the first two weeks and a WR2 for the season

    He knew Bell wouldn't be available for 2 weeks when he drafted him. Colston isn't helping anybody's WR corp. There are better options on the waiver wire.

    I HIGHLY doubt he would be willing to trade his RB1 after losing his WR1 unless you offered lynch or julio. however you do have a reasonable chance of getting forsett from him. I would suggest murray and colston for forsett. If he doesn't bite on that because colston is over the hill (justified) then switch him for agholor. That should interest him due to agholor's big upside to compliment marshall's steady floor.

    Marshawn and Hopkins for Bell and Jordan Matthews. You're going to have to give up Marhsawn to get Bell unless you trade Julio Jones for am average WR. Could also throw in Thomas for Kelce.

    If you're looking for a realistic, fair, win-win trade, your options as I see it are:

    Lynch plus (Colston or Wright)
    Jones plus Yeldon
    or maybe you could get away with Hopkins plus (Ingram or Murray) plus Yeldon

    If you're just looking for an unrealistic, screw-him-over kind of trade ...
    How about Wright for Bell straight-up? Doesn't that sound nice?

    If I owned Le'Veon Bell, it would take either Marshawn Lynch or Julio Jones as part of a package for me to even think about it (probably Lynch and Hopkins or Julio and Murray would get me interested). However, this owner might be a little desperate with Jordy out for the year and Roddy having surgery, plus Brandon Marshall always a risk, so it doesn't hurt to try. I'd not get your hopes up though as a savvy owner wouldn't even consider the trade ideas you were mentioning.

    Well he just lost Jordy Nelson, he might bite on a Marshawn and Hopkins trade. I wouldn't put Julio in the mix since I like T.J. Yeldon as a sleeper.

    I'd like to offer a combo of Latavius Murray, Mark Ingram, on TJ Yeldon and Marques Colston. I'm not looking to send Lynch, Hopkins, nor Julio.

    Yea there is no way he would trade a #1 pick for those scrubs.
