whirlwind of trading going on...need advice... shoutout to VSOP!!
QB - Ryan, Palmer
RB - Foster, spiller, jstew, ryan mathews, Ivory
WR - demaryius, jordan matthews, james jones, marvin jones
TE - Gronk, Clay

PPR

I traded jarvis landry and woodhead for foster.

I got offered lacy for jordan matthews and foster. i accepted this trade because I was supposed to be receiving Antonio Brown, Randall Cobb and Gio Bernard for for Gronk, James Jones and Ivory, but this fell through.

The Lacy owner has given me an out, and if I take the Lacy deal, I'm screwed at WR, unless I make another trade. I was offered Brown, Fitz and Gio for Gronk, James Jones and Ivory.

Should I leave my team as is or make some more moves?

    You are getting fleeced giving up Matthews and Foster for Lacy. Yea Foster has injury concerns but you are giving up a RB1 and WR2 for an RB1. Ryan, Foster, Ivory, DT, JMatt, Jones, Gronk is a really strong team, man. I'd try to spin Clay for an upgrade at RB to get some insurance for Foster/Ivory. Gronk is off his bye, you won't play Clay ever again and his value is probably as high as it will ever be (he is TE4 right now I think).

    I know. I wasn't worried about JMatt and Foster for Lacy because I was supposed to be getting Cobb and Antonio Brown, so I figured it wasn't too big of an issue. The deal by itself is terrible, but thankfully the Lacy ownder gave me an out. Most people in my league couldn't care less about TEs, so I'm not sure I can necessarily move Clay for any position player, unfortunately. I'm worried that Jones may losesome targets once adams comes back, but he has been performing so well, I'm not sure that ARod will target him much less.

    Maybe one of the QB could get you something? I'm not too worried about James Jones, Rodgers loves him. I think he will stay a valuable flex for you. I like your team, I wouldn't mess with it too much. Maybe sell high on Spiller after Sundays stat line to get another WR? Maybe flip one of your QB for another RB/WR? I would tinker, but your core of Foster/DT/Matthews/Gronk is strong. Unfortunately the depth isn't there to try and make 2 for 1's.

    Truth. I sent woodhead and landry for foster just to see if the guy would bite because he needed RBs and he did, which I guess if I wasn't prepared to do the trade, I shouldn't have done it. It left me a little thin on the bench. Would you do the gronk/jones/ivory for antonio/fitzgerald/gio trade and keep the lacy deal?

    I actually really like the Foster trade. In PPR he is a monster. Yea theres risk, but hes the best player in the deal. The Gronk/Antonio deal I am good with too, I think its an even trade so thats your call. I hate trading Gronk but Antonio justifies it. I just cant get behind trading Matthews and Foster for Lacy. You should be able to get a good RB by trading one of Fitz or Matthews by themselves. No reason you should have to lose Foster too. Foster to Lacy is not an upgrade at this point.

    Thanks man, I really appreciate the advice. I'm gonna rescind the Lacy deal hopefully and try to move forward and try to do some little tinkering. If I can do the Brown deal itself I'd be left with JMatt at flex then DT and Brown, with Foster and Gio and Clay at TE. I love Gronk but I feel that would be pretty solid if I made that move too.

    Damn, your league trades a lot. Not one trade has gone through in either of my leagues.
    Got no advice though, that is confusing as hell.
