Trader's Alley Week 2: Buy Low, Sell High Special Edition


Pros and Cons to Consider Before Closing the Deal

EDITOR'S NOTE: We don't normally publish Trader's Alley with only one week in the books, due to people's propensity to overreact to the small sample size. But I've had so many subscribers asking for the article this year, I decided to go ahead and roll with it on limited data. Please keep this in mind when evaluating trades this week and try not to overreact to a single week's games.

This column is designed to quickly unearth some not so obvious things to help you... buy low and sell high.

Further, we suggest you only make a trade if you receive plenty of value in return and the deal results in an improved roster for your squad. In short, obtain players that will outperform their current perceived value while trading overrated talent. Do that and you'll be on your way to improving your roster. The perfect trade!

Owners considering trades should also consult our Rest-of-Season Rankings and Player Trade Evaluator.
