Quick Trading Tips
Evaluate the First Offer
Accept an offer that meets your needs at a fair cost. Counter when a specific change would improve the deal.
Know Your League's Market
Player values vary by league. What works in one league may not work in another.
Trade for Needs, Not Names
Focus on filling roster holes rather than acquiring big names that don't fit your team.
Check the Role Behind the Score
Compare workload and health before acting on a big or poor game. A changed role matters more than one result.
