"Trades are huge in Fantasy Football. That is what makes it fun. I have talked about the draft for me is probably the most fun that you can. Then trades too. There is a lot of different proposals that go around. A lot of people like to , they think that their players since they drafted them, that they are a lot better than they are. But, kind of look back and say. Which are some of the trends? Like I was talking before about of kind of projecting. So you might have some young players who are actually slowly getting time as the season goes on. So, you might want to target a player , that you think will do well. You might want to trade a veteran. Especially, if a guy you think that might be kind of injury prone. You might want to actually to trade for example, right now I am really good on running backs but maybe my receivers are really weak. Then each week that is kind of hurting me a lot in points. So, I might want to trade off one of my running backs to a guy to get one of the better receivers too. But, you don't want to like over extend yourself in the trade. If I give away too many running backs to let up on a wide receiver because then your back to the same position again. So, a big thing too is. This is kind of important, it is that you actually have a commissioner in the league. He will go out and he will kind of check the trades. So, you have got to make sure when your doing a trade that it is fair. Because there is a lot of guys who are trading players to help another friend out. That is also something that you have to look out for too. A lot leagues will have trade vetoes if you think that a trade is unfair. So, right now I have, I am loading up on four running backs. I might of actually hurt myself later on with not drafting a wide receiver. So, sometimes you might actually say, maybe to prevent somebody I will go out and load up on a position, knowing late on that I could get a better player in return. Okay, you guys I also want to add in too when you do trades you don't have to do a one for one trade. Sometimes, you might do like three players for two players. You actually have to kind of keep that in consideration because sometimes you could actually dupe somebody. You might trade three players to a person and he has two roster spots and he has to cut a player. There is a chance once a player is cut you can get him back. We actually, we are going to talk about waiver wires next which is actually a huge part of Fantasy Football, where you can make or break your season."
