Fanex update: yet another trade

Posted May. 16 at 09:59 AM

I think I'm going to set a new record for trades in this league. So far, I've selected one player and traded four picks.

I traded picks 1.08 and 2.05 for Steven Jackson and pick 2.08. Now I've traded down, giving away pick 2.08 to move back to 2.11. The reward, however, I think makes the trade very worthwhile - I get to move up from 3.08 to 3.02. So I traded 3 spots of draft position in round 2 for 6 spots of draft position in round 3.

I'm not necessarily a trade maniac, but I'll make any deal that I feel benefits my team. I've thrown a few offers out there, and some of the guys have been biting on them.
