ADVICE

Don't Force Trades You Dislike

  • Avoid trades where you don't like any of the players moving; search for better offers instead of forcing deals.
  • Joe Pisapia explicitly advises finding something else rather than accepting unfavorable multi-player swaps.
ADVICE

Prefer Cook + Waddle Over Smith

  • Prefer the side with Cook and Waddle over Devonta Smith in that suggested deal.
  • Andrew Erickson explicitly says he prefers the Cook and Waddle package and is not worried about Waddle's health.
ADVICE

Move Mid-Tier RBs For Upgrades

  • Trade T-Mac or Nico (name value) if you need RB help; avoid trading Rice unless you can land an elite RB.
  • Andrew explicitly recommends moving T-Mac first and Joe cautions against trading Rice for lesser upgrades.
