I won a startup dynasty league last year with smoke and mirrors. This offseason I've made several trades to get younger and rebuild. I just got an offer that is making me rethink my strategy, should I consider this and MAYBE have a chance to win now, or decline and focus on the youth rebuild?
This is a 12 team PPR league. We start 1qb, 2rb, 3wr, 1te, 1 wr/rb/te flex.
Offer I was sent was the following:
I give: 1.11, 1.12 rookie picks
I get: 1.9, Steve Smith Panthers
Current Roster:
Stafford, Fitzpatrick, Gabbert Richardson(1.1), Hillis, Tolbert, Scott, K. Bell, Powell Calvin, Marshall, Ford, Boldin, Douct, James Jones Gates, Cook Lions Rookie picks 1.1, 1.7, 1.11, 1.12, 3.12
I am hoping the 1.7 brings me a 2nd start worthy RB (better than Hillis) and perhaps the 1.11 or 1.12 bring me an upgrade at #3 WR. Of course this offer would give me Smitty to start over Ford then best WR or RB at 1.7 and 1.9. But do I want to take on Smitty's age?
Thoughts?

CRAP. It was Steve Smith RAMS, I rejected immediately. HUGE difference from him and Smitty Panthers IMO.

Too bad it wasn't the other Steve Smith. I would have done that deal in a heartbeat. Check his roster. Maybe you can substitute someone else into the deal and still make it happen. You are upgrading the 1.11 to the 1.09, so the only compensation you are giving for the player is the 1.12. Bird in the hand theory at work.

I would've accepted to.
