Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to the Dynasty Do podcast. I'm your
host Krey Evans. This week's show is titled Grading Recent
Dynasty Trades. I went across my five active leagues. There's
a sixth league that has not yet had his rookie draft.
So the caveat here is that rookie drafts are complete
and these trades took place therefore over the past month
or two, either during or after the rookie drafts. And
the cool part of context he does can give you
real time or recent player value or assessment from paid
leagues or at least one hundred dollars some pushing one
hundred and fifty or one hundred and seventy five annual
league fees, so there's money on the line, and I
will give you my perspective or grade on each trade
what I would prefer to be on each side. I'm
evolved in I think two or three of them. So
it should be a fun exercise and insightful process. If
you want a one on one roster call with me
to break down your teams before the start of Urge Draft,
after Eugie Draft, or prior to the start of upcoming season,
then hit me up Dynasty Pod on most social media
platforms or an email to dynastydopodgmail dot com. I offer
the calls either thirty minutes, four to thirty dollars or
one hour, four fifty dollars on Google Meet, reach Out
a SEP if you want to get booked and on
my calendar. So the first league that I'll talk about
had three recent trades take place. It is called the
Dynasty Fantasy Football Championship League. It's the actual first Dynasty
league I joined in where I learned how to play.
Compared to redraft or keeper leagues, this is easily ten
plus years ago, so it's one of my favorite leagues
because I have the most history with it. The first
d was Tetro McMillan for Jordan Mason and Rashi Rice.
I could see the appeal from both ends, and I
will give context of both teams that were involved. The
McMillan squad is somewhere in the middle and or rebuilding,
whereas the Mason Rashi Rice end of the deal is
a contender. So with that in mind, we can look
at it from two perspectives. Rashie Rice sustained the LCL
and PCL injury in Week four of last season. It
required surgery. It's usually a nine to twelve month recovery.
So far, Rachi Rice is on the earlier end of
that time stamp, and by most accounts, should be ready
for the start of the twenty twenty five regular season,
if not a full go by the time training camp
starts in July. The reason why I might prefer the
Tetro McMillan's side of this trade is his draft Capitol Youth,
the association of now Bryce Young as well as Dave
Canalis in this revamped Carolina offense.
Speaker 2: Is the eventual suspension.
Speaker 1: Of Rashee Rice from that multi vehicle crash where he
was speeding, essentially racing in an all around bad look
for the NFL is serious when it comes to those
sort of off the field issues, so it's a matter
of time until the suspension does play out. There's been
suggested games of anywhere from six to eight.
Speaker 2: Time will tell.
Speaker 1: Now with the information we have at our disposal, ver
She Rice is not suspended, and because of that, I
lean Jordan Mason and Rashi Rice for the side of
this trade. Even though the long term upside of Tedero
McMillan is very appealing. Jordan Mason is essentially the tiebreaker
here for me because it sounds like Kevin O'Connell.
Speaker 2: Is fully committed to it being one A, one B.
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones go to Mason, and that could be a
rotation or there's a mix in match whether it be
a different series spelling each other that way, or certain
matchups if it's a hot hand approach where both Jones
and Mason will have early down rolls and the passing
now responsibilities figure to favorite Jones all in all, because
it's the two for one and there's no timetable or
official discipline for Rahi Rice, I do prefer the Mason
Rice side of that trade. The next deal in this
league was a twenty twenty six first round pick for
Cole Comet, Mason Taylor, and Tyler Shuck. This DFC is
what it's called Dynasty Football Championship League is super flex
as well as tight end premium. So with that context
in mind, the twenty twenty six first round pick I
would estimate early to mid for Cole Comet, Mason Taylor,
and Tyler Shuck. This is a tough one because with
nil deals prospects, we might be banking on to declare
in twenty twenty six or twenty twenty seven, could easily
return to school for more money than they'd see in
the first, second, third round as Pro NFL players. Before
I decide, I want to break down co Comett, Mason Taylor,
and Tyler Shuck. Co Comett is now perceived to be
tight end two in Chicago once Colson Lovin is back
on the field and recovered fully from his off season
shoulder injury and surgery. Co Comet is no longer as
appealing of an option in fantasy as he was a
year ago, even with the presidence of Ben Johnson, because
Ben Johnson clearly in visions Coleson Lovelin as his new
Sam Laporta. However, I do like Mason Taylor a lot
who has impressed early on No tas as well as
mandatory Mini camp with his past protection skills even as
a blocker on running plays, as well as his obvious
trades from LSU as a pass catcher.
Speaker 2: So Taylor makes this trade intriguing.
Speaker 1: And then there's Tyler Schuck, who I think will make
or break this deal because in super Flex, a first
usually lands you a quarterback, whereas Tyler Shuck's ADP in
super flex formats is more of a second this year,
so all things on the table be considered co Comet,
Mason Taylor, Tayler Schuck, or an.
Speaker 2: Early to mid twenty twenty six first. It's a tough call.
Speaker 1: I tend to believe that there's room for profit and
price when it comes to Mason Taylor and Tyler Shuck,
which is why I side with that portion of this deal.
The twenty twenty six first ends up.
Speaker 2: Being mid or late.
Speaker 1: Suddenly the trio of Taylor, Comet Shuck los a lot better,
and if you can flip Chuck for a first, then
essentially you're getting Mason Taylor and co Comett for.
Speaker 2: Free in this trade.
Speaker 1: The last trade I'll talk about from this specific league
was Chris Elijah Higgins and Michael Mayer for a twenty
twenty seven second Christian Kirk and Zach Moss. This, when
I saw it, really cut me off guard, because Chris
Olave was given away for essentially nothing a twenty twenty
seven second.
Speaker 2: Elijah Higgins was a.
Speaker 1: Throw in Michael Mayer for then in a sense, Christian
Kirk and Zach Moss. Let's go player by player on
each side. Chris o'lave sure has the documented concussion his three. However,
if he is as advertised and healthy, we're looking at
a wide receiver one two on that boarderline. Elijah Higgins
is a throw in behind Trey McBride for the sake
of the Cardinals offense, and Michael Mayer Sure has had
a nice offseason. The odds that he is relevant ahead
of Brock Bauers let alone alongside Jacobin Myers, Trey Tucker,
Jack Besh, Dante Thornton Junior seems minimal for the twenty
twenty seven second. Christian Kirk and Zach Moss. I far
prefer the olave Michael Mayer's side this trade because essentially
it is a one for one of olive in the
second for Elijah Higgins mayor Christian Kirk Zach Moss. Christian
Kirk is facing a lot of competition in Houston now
with Nico Collins, rookies Jaden Higgins Jalen Nole. Not to
mention an eventual return if Kirk stays round long enough
of Tank Dell. Zach Moss had that neck issue in
injury that ended as twenty twenty four season abruptly yet
it's back and took a hometown discount to re sign
with the Bengals, so there is some insurance of standalone
value behind Chase Brown. That being said, the centerpiece of
this deal is Chris o'lave. It only took a twenty
twenty seven second in terms of a long term or
high ends set to acquire a Lave, so this is
a steal in my opinion for.
Speaker 2: The olave side.
Speaker 1: Moving along to the next league, it's called the Animals
Dynash League. And in this league we are named after animals.
Sort of a silly concept, but it's fun. My team
name is the Chicago Coobras for example. There were four
trays I want to break down from this league, and
like the previous league, this is a twelve team super
flex titand premium format. First deal was Devonte Smith, Javonte Williams,
Jacory Krossky Merritt and a twenty twenty six third for
Jerry Judy, a Mecca a Guka, Terrence Ferguson and Jarquest Hunter.
Speaker 2: A big blockbuster trade here.
Speaker 1: Basically, DeVante Smith Jerry Judy is the front end of
the deal and I prefer Devonte Smith there fairly easily.
Then you have Javonte Jacorey, and the third versus a
Mecca Terrence Ferguson and Jaquest Hunter. When you look at
it side by side, I again prefer DeVante over Jerry
Judy long term, though.
Speaker 2: Give me the Jerry Judy.
Speaker 1: A Mecca, Terrence Ferguson and Jarquest Hunter side of this trade,
especially given the format with it being title premium Ferguson's
of value. I am a huge a Mecha Guka fan,
so sure you're taking a little bit of a dent
in ceiling pivoting from DeVante Smith to Jerry Judy with
the quarterback uncertainty that is in Cleveland. Yet you're really
only sacrific seeing Javonte Williams, who could be in a
committee with Miles Sanders or lose out to Jaden Blue eventually.
And then Jacoori Krossky Merrit who has had some buzz
but is still a Day three pick with.
Speaker 2: No surefire role for Walker.
Speaker 1: All that to get Judy and Meca Ferguson Hunter seems
like a good deal to me. The next trade was
a one for one swap Brandon Ayuk for Mason Taylor Ayuk.
We all know towards ACL and MCL. Last October GM,
John Lynch has praised Ayu's recovery that is on the
right track, even head a schedule. Of course, that's usually
rhetoric we hear from an injured player. The suggested return
timeline is around mid season of twenty twenty five, so
he is a puplist candidate. This is a tough one
because it is Titan Premium. Ayuk has disappointed now after
his recent mega contract. I still believe in the talent
situation there is room for Ayuk to resurface and become
the alpha for the forty nine ers, but I really
like Mason Taylor in a Titan Premium league. If I
were part of this trade, I would have asked for
something with Mason Taylor to offset ayuk ceiling. Even so,
I believe it's a pretty fair deal with the initial
edge favoring Ayuk. However, because I'm such a big Mason
Taylor fan, I do tend to lean on that side
in tendan Premium if it all pans out, and he
is the pass catcher that I've seen on film and
we are all so excited about as the possible second
third option for the Jets revamped offense. The next trade
was Deebo Samuel, Jake Ferguson, Rashad White for Remandre Stevenson,
Sam Howell and Shamir DK.
Speaker 2: This was sort of a head scratcher.
Speaker 1: I think most people would agree that Deebo, Ferguson, Rashaud
White is greater sign Remandre Howell and DK, with Remandre
possibly still the starter but on a short leash Trevan
Henderson right behind him on that depth chart. Not much
to offer in Sam Howell unless you have Jaj McCarthy
as the backup now in Minnesota, and then Shamir DK
has a lot to prove to even be relevant, whereas
Deebo is wide receiver two, possibly wide receiver one for
Jad and Daniels. If McLaurin holds out, you have Jake Ferguson,
who's a steady tight end to a title one upside.
And then there's untapped potential Mashad White if he leaves
Tampa Bay is a free agent after this year. So
give me the debo Ferguson Rashad White side of this trade.
And the last trade I'll talk about from the Animals Die.
The league that I'm in is Justin Fields, Nick Chubb,
Jack Besh, Cooper Cup, Mike Gseki and Jatavian Sanders. A
lot going on there for Jordan Addison and Tucker Craft.
So this is a consolidation deal which I talk a
lot about on my roster calls. When you're loaded, you
have excess depth and you are targeting a player such
as in this case Jordan Addison Tucker Craft. This other
team said I'll get rid of and offload Nick Chubb,
Jack Besh, Cooper Cup, mikea. Secy, Jatavian Sanders, but he
probably wanted the Addison Craft combo. Justin Fields is potentially
being sold a bit low here in super Flex Nick
Chubb potentially relevant, but not necessarily a screaming value. I
am a big fan of Jack Besh. He's a nice
by low right now here. With the reports of Dante
Thorton Junior running ahead of him and Besh with the
second team, Cooper Cup at Seattle could be a very
nice combination with Sam Donald a quarterback and Kubiak as
the Ockseki and Sanders and Titan Premium are surely relevant,
whereas Addison and Craft long term could be the best portion.
But I see it as way too much value to
give up and or pass on. In super Flex for Fields,
Bash Cooper Cup, a short stint of Nick Chubb and Houston,
and then the Tidan combination of Gasecki and Sanders.
Speaker 2: So give me that side of this pact. Time for
a quick break.
Speaker 1: I'll be back with two other leagues that have had
recent donjie trades that I am in and break them
down before I get to that. Consider becoming a member
of my Patreon support my work. I have three tier levels.
Five dollars per month you're the Rookie level, twelve dollars
per month is the Veteran tier level, and then twenty
five dollars per month is the MVP level. Each year
of the zone perks and benefits you can take a
look on patreon dot com, the mobile app, or visit
click a link in my social media bios to access
my page. The main perks are a bonus episode per
week as well as unlimited DM for any questions you
might have. And this week's bonus show on Patreon is
me identifying and calling out my favorite NFL wide receiver
threes in fantasy, so that third receiver on the perceived
up chart who I want to roster this year heading
into twenty twenty five. Quick break the right back. The
next league is called the Elite Dynasty League. It's a
league that I actually am the commissioner of. This is
not a trade that I was a part of. I
actually was a part of two trades in the last
upcoming lead I'll talk about. But anyway, small trade but
still notable. It was Zach Charbonay for bay Shall Tuton
and for some context, behind the scenes, this was a
swap to then help each team have their backup. So
now the Charbonay team has sharbon Ay and Kennth Walker
and the bay Shall Tuton team has TRAVSEYTN and base
Shall Tutons.
Speaker 2: So this is a very fair deal.
Speaker 1: If I had to pick one right now, I lean
towards Sharbonnay because we've seen what he can do when
Kennth Walker missus time. However, I am a huge fan
of what Tune brings to the field, let alone what
GM James Gladstone has said about in this offseason. So
ultimately it's a fair deal and it makes sense for
both sides given their running backs that they've already had
with Walker and travs Tien to now solidify those respective backfields.
And then, last but not least, my Patreon listener league
has had four huge deals take place since.
Speaker 2: Our he draft. The first one I was a part of.
Speaker 1: I received Ashing Genty and base Shall Tuton, and I
gave up cam Moard and Roma Doonzay.
Speaker 2: It was a steep price to pay.
Speaker 1: I really wanted a share of Gents, and I overspent
for it, especially in super Flex if cam Mord ends
up being as good as advertised as a first overall
pick to Tennessee ba Jall Tuten was a nice consolation
to offset the premium I had to also give up,
which is Roma Doonzay, who I think is a perfect
scheme fit for Ben Johnson's offense. So sure, this could
backfire on me, but it proves the point that if
you really want to get a player, you have to
be willing to spend above market value.
Speaker 2: To do so.
Speaker 1: I did put my money in my mouth was I
wanted that share of Gente and I gave up cam Mord,
who goes anywhere from one point on two to one
point oh four in most super Flex redrafts. This summer,
in addition to giving up a prized upcoming young wide
on Roma Doonsay. My only hope is that gent is
as good as Bijon Robinson or Jamiir Gibbs. And then
the difference in value between Odonsay and Tuton isn't that drastic.
It's a gamble, but one that was willing to take.
The next trade was George Kiddo and Jordan Mason for
David ing Joku and Khalil Shakir. So it's basically you
swapped tight ends and you swap a running back for
a wide out. I prefer Kittle over in Djoku, while
Mason Verushakir might be closer to the meets the eye,
So give me the Kittle and Mason side of this trade.
Nothing against Njoku, I just don't think he has the
ceiling of George Kittle if Kittle's healthy and playing a
full season, especially with Again, I brought it up at
Cleveland's quarterback room, whether it's Kenny Pickett, Joe Flacco, the
rookies of Dylan Gabriel, Shader Sanders, it's sort of a mess,
and they could be one of the past heavier offenses. Volume, though,
is great, but efficiency and accuracy is a whole nother
ball game. That's why I think Cleveland' Passcager might struggle
a bit. In twenty twenty five. The next trade was
another one that I was a part of. I received
Jonathan Taylor Hollywood Brown. I gave up Chryst Olave, Javonte Williams,
and Nntavion Wicks.
Speaker 2: I looked at it this way. I wanted to pivot
off of.
Speaker 1: Kris Olave, who I am a bit fearful with the
concussion history. Whereas I said early in the show that
Olive is a steal for a second, this is more realistic.
I wanted a wide receiver running back for a Lave.
Not much interest in this league was given, so when
the JT opportunity came up, I figured, sure, JT is
probably on the back nine of his prime. Still there
another solid one or two RB one high productive seasons
in the tank. If a Lave is what we assume
he can be, then it's a fair swap. And to
offset the JT production we've seen, I had to give
up more. I give up Javonte and Wicks while only
receiving Hollywood Brown returned. I was okay spending that premium
because if she Rice is suspended, Hollywood Brown is going
to skyrocket in value, whether it's this year on a
one year deal.
Speaker 2: Or if Hollywood's brought back.
Speaker 1: There's a lot to like about the usage we saw
down a stretch of the regular season, let alone the postseason,
and Patrick Mahomes has spoken really positively about Hollywood Brown.
Sure a lot of mounts to feed in Kansas City,
even with the David Worthy, Travis Kelce and Rice went
healthy Slash not suspended, but JT in Hollywood for Alavi
Javonte Wick seem pretty fair for sides. And the last
deal was Saquon Barkley for bres Hall and two twenty
twenty six thirds. This was a fair transaction. Barkley is
about as elite as it gets. The question is how
much longer when he had that I'm going to retire
one day, wake up, No, it's my time to hang
up the cleats statement that came out this offseason. So
I feel like that team perhaps saw that and didn't panic,
but said, Okay, now it's the time to get ahead
of this curve. So giving up Breese and two thirds
is realistic. The question is whether or not Breess Hall
can perform as an RB one when Aaron Glenn has
been so adamant about it being a three headed monster
with Breece, Isaiah Davis and Braylen Allen in some way,
shape or form. Of course, if it was Redraft or Keeper,
most people would want Barkley over Breee. The two thirds
are not a throw in, but they're not necessarily moving
needle type impact.
Speaker 2: For the sake of this trade.
Speaker 1: This is ultimately saying here on out, do I want
Barkley or Breese? And if it is one to two
years about the Barkley, then you're buying maybe two to
three more years of and that is certainly a factor
in this deal. Hope you all enjoy this week's episode.
A little bit of a different spin from my usual content.
I thought grading recent ditty trades in my active leagues
that have money in the line would bring good, updated
and real impact to you if you're in the same
boat or potentially looking to acquire or sell the players
I discussed. Until next time, this is the Dynasa's checking out.
If you did enjoy this week's show, please drop a
five star review on Apple or spot. If alps me
out a ton, I will talk to you all next week,
see you
