Note: Dan "Claude" Weissbard is taking over the mantle of the trade deadline preview. I have not edited (or read) this so take this all with a Weissbard-sized grain of salt.
TRADE IDEAS, week 10 (trade deadline Nov 27)
WHAT THIS IS
Computer-generated trade ideas for every team in the league. Each idea is
built to help BOTH sides, so it's a deal that could actually get accepted.
HOW IT WORKS
- Every player is valued using FantasyPros rest-of-season half PPR
consensus rankings (an average of dozens of experts).
- Each team's best possible starting lineup is scored, and every position
is marked Strong or Weak compared to the league average.
- It tries every 1-for-1, 2-for-1, and 2-for-2 trade between all teams and
keeps only the ones where both teams' starting lineups get better and
the players on each side are within 25% of each other in value.
- Each team gets up to 3 ideas, each with a different trade partner.
HOW TO READ A TRADE
- Give / Get: the players moving. The # is the player's overall
FantasyPros rest-of-season rank.
- Lineup: how much each team's projected starting lineup improves.
- Why: which weak spot each team fills and what depth it trades from.
TEAM STATUS (based on record, playoff spots, and weeks left)
Trades are ranked partly by how motivated each team should be to deal.
- Contender: in a playoff spot with a cushion of 2+ games.
Weight 1.0x. Solid already, so a normal priority.
- Bubble: in a playoff spot by less than 2 games, or just outside it.
Weight 1.25x. Needs help now, so these trades rank highest.
- Long shot: 3+ games out of the last playoff spot, or more games back
than weeks left. Weight 0.7x. Less to play for, so ranked lowest.
These are starting points for conversation, not guarantees. Rankings don't
know about your league's personalities or who refuses to trade with whom.
