  1. Im in a 12 team $300 draft cash auction 7 keepes. With my 7, I have $70 left. Should I trade McBride $15 for james Cook $40? All top rbs are being kept and many more. Here’s my keepers as of now.
    L. Jackson
    A. Jeanty
    J. Warren
    N. Collins
    T. Higgins
    D. Adams
    T. McBride
    Flex
    Flex
    2 flex spots

  2. Also would you trade Warren for Bucky Irving?

  3. Please answer, going to lose out on a trade.

    1. who are your other RBs besides Jeanty and Warren?

      1. Non. Can only keep 7. Others aren’t anything.

  4. Also another trade Tee Higgins for Zay Flowers i would save $5 draft cash

  5. Losy out on the Bucky and Zay Flowers trades. Took way to long.

    1. which RBs will be left available in the pool?

  6. Love
    Jadarian Price,
    Tony Pollard, TEN (9)
    RJ Harvey, DEN (10)
    J.K. Dobbins, DEN (10″
    Blake Corum, LAR (11
    Kyle Monangai, CHI (10
    Jonathon Brooks, CAR (5)
    Rachaad White, WAS (7
    Aaron Jones Sr., MIN (6)
    Jacory Croskey-Merritt WAS (7)
    Tyrone Tracy Jr., NYG (
    And the rest below that I know of.

    1. On a $300 budget it is OK to go after Cook at $40 given the available RB pool. At TE, target Isaiah Likely and/or Chig Okonkwo with your bids at bottom of the barrel prices

      1. Thank you

  7. 12 team 1QB dynasty

    Burrow, Love, Shough

    Henderson, Judkins, Sampson, Brooks

    Tet, GWilson, Addison, JReed, Parker Wash

    Bowers, Strange

    Hold picks 3, 4, and 13 this draft plus 2 2027 1sts

    Any advice for trading those picks around to improve my roster? I might be able to get guys like JT, or Bucky in a deal, or should I just hold firm and let the draft come to me?

    1. Your team is set for a 2027 monster don’t you dare trade those 2027 picks. The 2026 picks I would be open to fire sale. If someone wants to trade you JT or something similar for picks 3 and 4 plus a throw in, I would take that and try to win this year and then get ready to crush in 2027

  8. Would you trade Tee Higgins for Zay Flowers? Also gain $5 draft cash

    1. I personally would, yes.
