Why is that...?

Acho is a beast on here...

I think he has Bull Rush, Spin, High Motor and Big Hitter as of now for traits. He is young and rated a 78 - 80 in schemes. The Steelers do not pay until next year for the most part on him.

He has an 82 Speed and 84 Acc.

91 Pursuit, 85 Block Shedding, and 89 Power Moves.

He still gets a 1st round pick with a 4th and 5th. He gives up a 1st this year and a 1st next year. He gets two players all year and the value is lower on a 1st next year. Most teams get a 1st next year for 2nd round pick this year.

Just trying to show how the deal works out... What do you suggest?

Main reason feel like you cheating the system to load up

IE if Acho is such a STud he worth a 1st round Pick

Why sign 2 ROLB including the best FA at the postion



2.not sure a 79 is worth what is prob a non playoff first(he finshed 3rd in his division this year)Don't think anyone would take kindly to me getting a top 15 1st for Riley same age and ovr with quick dev trait

3.Ur a techie

4.just a first glance Opionion might see it differntly later

Here is my attempt at the answers to 1-4...lol.

1) I did not expect to sign the 3 Free Agents. All 3 of them had other bidders. I had planned on trying to sign a LOLB to challenge Groves & better depth for the LB corp.

2) I don't think Riley is nearly as good. I could be wrong... Acho is young and his XP can now be used on his main ratings which are already very solid for a young LB. He already has the big purchases that will make him standout even more on Sundays.

3) I do have a UVA player on my team! I would have more Hokies if it was easier to obtain them..lol.

4) I hope it does... I did give him the option of a 3rd round pick instead of a 4th and 5th. I am cool with it either way if it needs to be updated.

...

I do think it is a fair deal as he gets his value now and still gets a 1st with additional picks. His main LB is on his way to the old folks home and Acho will be their new stud on the edge! He really improved his team quickly with his last two trades and still has a 1st round pick with a few extras to boot.

Riley has 83 speed with 95 tackle and 91 Hitpower with 93 block shred

Pretty impressive for a 25 year old with quick progression



1st glance not looking at Acho that much

2 trades I've been offered to move up about same # of slots to early 2nd late 1st included adding a 3rd and 4th or a 80 player and 5th

Just my personal view it should cost more to move up into top 10 then a 4th and 5th(But don't know how these drafts will work)



again my main problem reather meant to or not is signing Freaa agents to trade a guy at that postion,esp when other teams were bidding on that free agent for a need



But I'm not deciding factor on trades so jut speaking my mind

The deal will change... Maybe you will like it more now OV. I know you are not on the trading board, but I liked our little convo on it..lol.

#9 pick will now change to #14 as Crimson backed out on his deal with Waffle.

Deal stays the same other than that...

As far as the Free Agents go man... I did not put all my eggs in one basket. I bidd on guys and did not know if I would get any at all, that was smart. It worked out well having them and even better if I keep Acho. Depth is huge on here when playing teams that have long drives and the back-ups come into play.

I bidded on them before we even struck a deal... I was bidding on them either way.

the steelers have agreed again and are grateful that the cardinals have such fine management

I was okay with the deal until Waffle started giving Lethal a reacharound too. Make one of those #1s into a #3.

Just wanted to see an update on this trade.

The trade was adjusted... Just need to know if it is approved or declined, so we can plan ahead.

Thanks...

ovf and i will have a talk..
