tarantula Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Did you ever make a trade that looked good at the time but after you looked back you said '' What the .uck!!!! did I do that deal for''? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I can't remember any terrible ones, but maybe they were so bad they're blocked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Swerski Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 (edited) Shaun Alexander for Marcus Robinson back in 2001 (Jimmy Smith was my only other decent WR). Robinson tore two ligaments in his knee the following week and Lamar Smith wore down shortly after. And even with Faulk and Favre having outstanding seasons, I still lost in the championship game.

splotchman Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I traded Adrian Peterson for Ocho Stinko hours before went off on the Bears for 224 Yds and 3 Tds. Season is not over yet, but I am not happy with this trade unless Mr.Touchdown Dance turns it on pretty quickly here in November... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 I was clueless my first year and I traded Cris Carter, WR for Minny for Craig Heyward, breaking down RB at the time because I was easily swayed into thinking I needed RB help and that he somehow was an upgrade.

BS Miscreant Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 A couple years ago I was loaded, or so I thought, with young talented RBs and weak at WR in a keeper league. I traded away SJax for Wayne. My other young, talented RBs were Julius Jones and Cadillac Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomfin2000 Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) During the 2002 season, which was my second year of playing fantasy football, I made a trade on the eve of the deadline in Week 10. I needed help at WR, so I traded Clinton Portis during his rookie season in Denver for the number one WR in fantasy football at that point in time: Peerless Price. I think I got one monster game out of Price after that and a whole bunch of nothing the rest of the way. Meanwhile, the guy I traded Portis to won out his last five and backed into the playoffs. Guess who I played in the first round? Also, guess who went off for 4 scores and somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 combined yards? That trade cost me a league championship, because I would have won both playoff games with Portis on my roster.

What was the one I made in 12 MITH that year? It was something with Farve and someone for Peyton Manning or something like that wasn't it. I am sure yo mama would remember.

TheShiznit Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) I play IDP, and in my second year....back in 2005....I was pretty solid at WR..or so I thought. I had this steve smith guy who put up a couple of decent games through the first two weeks...and being a chicago homer I really wanted Urlacher. So I, I got talked into by the commissioner....MY FAULT NOT HIS....into a Urlacher for Smith deal. The week I did that, Smith went off for 40+ points on the Miami Dolphins and that was that. From that point on I decided to never be the dumb one involved in a trade. LESSON LEARNED!!!! Edited November 3, 2007 by TheShiznit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystykoekaki Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Early this season I traded Edwards for Evans....I'm still 7-1 but I could of used his consistency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easy n Dirty Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Many years ago, in David Boston's big season, I traded him after week 1 for Ron Dayne, who had a big opening week for the Giants. Dayne ended up being a second string back by week 4 if not sooner, and Boston had a big year for the Cardinals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montster Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 two years ago, we were actually in the bahamas on vacation and i checked my main local league a few hours before sunday's games. my wife was like, "you're checking fantasy football HERE?" it was week 9 or 10, and i was on the bubble for a playoff spot. i got an offer where i traded a starter and a backup for a starter and a backup -- i had jamal lewis, so his backup, chester taylor, was being traded to me. the backup i traded away was LJ. a few hours later, priest holmes went out for the season. i should've listened to my wife.

jo jo the dog faced boy Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Last year I traded MJD for Kitna in mid November because I had LJ, Gore, and C Taylor as my 3 RBs but no good QBs. I ended up losing the championship game because I had to start Vince Young and Justin Fargas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pirate lookin' at 40 Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Last year, when Alexander was hurt but was originally thought to be out for only one week, I went brain dead and traded for him. I gave up: Willie Parker Kevin Jones (who at the time had done nothing. It was right after I traded him that he went off) Reggie Wayne (at the time I had 3 WR's who were outscoring him. Again, after this trade he went off) I still look at this this and ask myself: "What the hell were you thinking"??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtdickens Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 A bronco homer just traded S.Holmes and K.Jones for B.Marshall. He already has Cutler and Henry in his starting lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
