How to Use the Dynasty Trade Calculator
Getting feedback on your trade only takes a few seconds. But there are a few nuances you'll need to understand to get the most out of the trade calculator. Here's what you need to know to use this tool properly:
Expert Values, Not Group Think
The dynasty trade calculator will not always be aligned with consensus. That's by design – there are other tools that tell you what most players think. This dynasty football trade calculator tells you what the experts think. This calculator is powered entirely by Jagger May's dynasty rankings so you can use it to get an edge over your league mates.
Choose Your League Format
First things first, you have to know your league settings. The tool adjusts dynamically once you enter your settings. To get the most out of this tool, make sure your league settings are reflected properly. You can account for options like PPR, .5 PPR, standard, and tight end premiums.

Build the Trade
Search for players or picks in the drop-down menu. You can add up to six assets to each side of the deal. The verdicts will update in real time as you swap in different assets, so tinker with the deal until you get what you're looking for.
Toggle Between Rebuilding or Contending
The ability to toggle between rebuilding or contending is one of the standout features of this dynasty trade calculator. If your trade is deemed to be uneven, the tool will automatically spit out suggested players or picks you can add in to even it out. This feature allows you to get the assets that meet your team's specific needs. If you choose contender, the tool will only suggest players who can contribute to your team right away. If you're a rebuilder, you'll see more young players and picks. Use this feature to get a sense of the asset you need to add in to sweeten the pot and get a deal over the line.
If you're a rebuilding team, be sure to check out the dynasty rookie mock draft simulator as well.
Pick Your Team Name
One feature you won't find anywhere else is the ability to name each participant in the trade. This way, you can make it easy to understand which side is which in the deal. And, you can have a little fun with the feature and make fun of your league mates, if that's the direction you want to go. But if you need help finding the perfect name, use our fantasy football team name generator.
Three-Team Trades
Another feature you won't find at many trade calculators, RotoWire's tool allows you to evaluate three-team trades. This is a great way to spin up three-team blockbusters that'll make waves in your league.
