Father and son in my league pulled off two trades this week (neither one is me, it's my BIL and nephew). Combining them together, can ANYBODY justify what the son did here? Dad is 2-0, son is 0-2 in the season so far.
Dad gets Tony Romo, Maurice Jones-Drew, Brandon Marshall and (from the first trade) Jason Witten.
Son gets Kyle Orton, Steven Jackson, Darren McFadden and (from the first trade) David Akers.
As far as I can tell, the son originated both trades, and dad took advantage. Witten is significant in our scoring system because TEs get 1 p.p.r. while RBs and WRs get less. Full redraft league.
The question might come up as to how this could happen. Well, our league doesn't have a veto system at all. It has always been assumed that all teams would try in good faith to compete, and until this trade that has been the case. If this trade doesn't completely destroy our league for future seasons, at the very least we won't have a blind trust mentality going forward.
I think Dad pulled off a huge injustice to the rest of the league's hard prep work, and the son very unwisely bailed on good players way too soon for no good reason. Anyway, your thoughts would be appreciated. Am I overreacting?
