Trade Grade 3

 A Saturday night trade doesn't give me a lot of time to post before the value of the trade inevitably changes, so I'm grading this as if Sunday did not happen.

Trade Grade 3
Marco receives Jonathan Taylor, Terry McLaurin, and Tre Tucker
Weissbard receives Nick Chubb, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Xavier Worthy

Despite one of the teams being 0-6, this is actually a pretty big trade. Everyone involved is at least flex-worthy at times, and we have some no doubt starters involved at RB and WR. It was obvious that Weiss needed to shake things up (it was obvious a month ago, but whatever), so he had to take some risks. I think Marco probably got the two best players in the trade, but with JT hurt, Weissbard needed someone that can actually help him avoid the first ever B2B Shot Spot. 

I can see the logic in both sides of this trade, as Weiss got some boom/bust options to supplant his insanely boring roster, and Marco positioned himself well for the stretch run. Marco's side is better and more relevant, but I can't fault Dan for taking a swing.

Grades:
Marco: A
Weissbard: B

(Note: Marco likely losing thanks to Jaden's injury and Weissbard waking Levine up means that both teams are off to bad starts, but I stand by the logic of the trade.)
