The Trade Checklist
Late is the hour and waning are the moments you have left before the Sandman comes to take you away. You open your Sleeper App with just enough time to tuck in each of your rosters for bedtime, looking at each of your players with pride and joy. Overwhelmed with the worry of losing everything you fought so hard to build, you contemplate on how to best protect them. From the crack of the doorway, you whisper to yourself, “Perhaps there’s a wee bit of luck left for me to squeeze out of today. I’ll send a trade to elevate my squad to new heights and secure my future!”
Proactive Trading
What is the most important asset in fantasy football? Elite quarterbacks? A treasure trove of picks? Or maybe it's powerful tools and analytics? That would make sense if we were robots or viewed fantasy as purely transactional, but there are aspects of fantasy football that are far more organic. In leagues that allow you to trade, your most important commodity is relational capital. In today’s leagues, trading requires more than specialized knowledge, salesmanship, or waiting for a fish to come to bite your hook. If you want more managers to dine at your table, you need to be a hospitable host.
Passive Trading
How many times have you made a deal that you almost instantly regret? Or how many times did you mortgage your future with your draft capital on a player only to miss the playoffs that season? Between countless hours filling in cells on spreadsheets with the latest analytics, or overdosing on an ocean of content, it can be easy to obsess over our fantasy football teams and make these mistakes. But like a dark comedy, the results of our efforts are often ironic & cruel.
