Welcome to Would You Rather: Dynasty Edition, a new series from DLF based on the popular board game. Each week we post a poll on Twitter asking fans who they prefer between a player or a certain pick. The values used here come via the DLF Trade Analyzer. We will cover the results and discuss both sides of the poll in depth. Let’s get right to it!
Aaron Jones vs 2022 1.06 Rookie Pick
Last week we covered a trade involving Amon-Ra St. Brown and Brandon Aiyuk. With Dynasty Trade Month officially over, we are going back to players/picks who carry similar value and letting you vote on who you would rather have. This one was pretty close and surprisingly went in favor of the draft pick. Aaron Jones's value seems to have taken a bit of a hit of late since Davante Adams was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders. Here were the results:
Which do you prefer? (1QB)
Once again voters were in alignment with the values from the trade analyzer. The values are close but the shiny new toy won out when it was all said and done.

These numbers reflect a one-quarterback league. The value for Jones drops down to 295.1 in superflex while the pick value remains unchanged.
A Case for Jones
Lol! Ain’t getting anywhere close to the 1.06 in my leagues. More like the 2.06.
Not sure what league you’re in, but I flipped him a few weeks ago for 1.07 in my 12-man, non-SF PPR, and I feel like it was a fair trade.
While I agree that as a contender, it’s probably wiser to hold Jones, I think it’s important to note that AJ Dillon is going to be eating more and more into that backfield productivity.
I traded Jones and a late 2nd for Jacobs. I was too concerned with Dillon’s expanded red zone work.
I traded my 1.12 for A.Jones. Feel better about that now : ()
