As good as Gurley is, there is no way I'd give up Goff and Mixon for him. I don't even think I'd do a Gurley-Goff straight swap

Not in this league. Besides scoring differences Gurley and most RBs are finished by 30-32. Good QBs which Goff is play to late 30s early 40s.

Yeh, as good as Gurley is, this is still a QB premium league and if you have a good starter is hard to give them up.

So what would you want from me to take Gurley? I’m not particularly keen to be honest given I have alright RBs plus Bell hopefully back next year on a new team

It’s looking like an increasingly mediocre draft so happy to have the discussion

Goff ahead due to league setup, let alone a top 12 dynasty RB in addition.
QBs only move for volume or rebuild. Unjustified otherwise unless you’re four deep.

From an expected package for Gurley PoV, I would expect a passing trade to be in line with what I got for AB with repeated number 1 WR years.
A middling starter young RB in Duke, a high end crapshoot in Fuller and two mid to late firsts (used to draft Cook and Allen)
Expect moving Gurley at his age is a rebuild move, expecting top 12 starters just won’t happen.
Heck, can’t even get three roll of the dice pieces for Wilson

Does anyone else actually look through old drafts?
I shudder to think of the value we put on any first from a draft like 2014s...

I do from time to time, usually when trying to figure out trades.
And every time I look my apparent inability to assess WR talent depresses me - outside of AB (which was a no-brainer when I traded for him) and AJ Green (who fell into my lap in my first draft) I've either drafted busts at the position (in some cases multiple times) or traded high picks for busts (Danario Alexander, Kenny Britt, Sammie Coates, Nelson Agholor etc)

Heck better than getting overexcited that high WR talent is dropping to you in drafts and over drafting them despite the plethora of other needs (see Parker, Dorsett, Davis, Williams, Moore, Ridley, Godwin, Richardson)
I’m just convinced all RBs are busts after Trich/JStew/Wilson burned me. Now only Cook to add

I’d do any WR bar Theilen.
There’s not much left after that. Funchess or Gabriel are next

I'd argue Goff is more valuable than Gurley straight up.
RBs dont last long enough. Goff is a top 10 QB for 10+ years and in this 3 QB league Goff's value is too high.

On the WR busts thing, holy * did Devante Parker actually do something in a game for once in his goddamn life?

46 of those yards were the flukiest in history but yeah Parker looked good

Also overthrown by an even bigger bust that would have been a walk in TD.
