snutch Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 (edited) Ray Rice, Crabtree and Gresham for Frank Gore and Celek. Basically, Gore for Rice. ESPN ranks them 3 and 16. First place gets Gore trades Rice. One reason I suspect it is, is because I offered the guy Lloyd and Bradshaw for Gore just the other week. I'm stacked at WR, so no funny comments. Another, the guy is 3-7 and no shot at playoffs, especially with trading his best RB for Rice. Thoughts?

Savage Beatings Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 You'll need more than their records to show collusion. Looks like a perfectly legitimate trade to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MustOfBeenDrunk Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 the trade i offered that he turned down is another reason. 3 for 16...come on! but you just can't use 3 for 16 as a standard to look at you must also look at games played strength of schedule played strength of schedule still too play changes on both teams that may change production of each player i can keep on going but i think you get what i'm saying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackass Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 crabtree has 4 td's in his last 5 games so it's not just rice for gore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Favre4ever Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Sounds like someone's upset that their trade offer didn't get accepted...Trade is fair and like someone already said you can't just go by Position ranks to decide whether a trade is fair or not...

Cunning Runt Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 fair enough. If it's re-draft with no reason for last place to make a move IF he's mathematically eliminated, then he should be locked from trading. Disagree. In leagues that pay for high week (all 17 weeks), an owner should be allowed to make trades that could put them in a position that way. That said, we do lock trades at kickoff of week 14 when our playoffs start - but that's for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lkirc Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Perfectly legitamate trade. Let it go. I might prefer the Rice side of it if I needed more depth in my starting lineup. Celek is junk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy has almost a 0% chance of making the playoffs. He needs to win out to be 6-7 and score almost 200 points a week to overtake the guy with same record. And position ranks do play a role, first and last place couldn't trade say foster for benson. I'm going by position rank, chance to make playoffs, record and the fact that this guy has made only one other move all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So then you too are trying to rape a team of talent for guys you don't need on your roster. Hope that email offering him half of your winnings doesn't get out! Collusion runs many way bud!

Hope that email offering him half of your winnings doesn't get out! Collusion runs many way bud! I'm not following. I wanted Gore, but then felt I was offering too much, so pulled it. I offered him Bradshaw and Lloyd, which would improve his team. He replied saying he wouldn't trade gore for anyone. Don't call me bud, chief. Anyway, trade is through....I think it is seriously lopsided, and shouldn't be approved...collusion was an inappropriate word. This league is full of managers who pay no attention to their team. It's a neighborhood league and we are still trying to Josh Gordon out the people who should not be in a league to begin with. This guy in last place is one of the managers who pays little to no attention to their team. He is 3-7 and has made one WW pickup all year. For those who watch The League...he was andraped.

But maybe after reading these posts, he didn't get such a good deal. "Sheesh. Do we really have to kill band width on this again???

Phazool Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 my opinion is slightly skewed I guess...I'm tied for first with this guy who got gore. Exactly.....your opinion of a trade should not warrant it being vetoed. Vetos should only happen if collusion is involved. It's really that simple. Unless of course your using a bad fantasy site like Yahoo that allows everyone to veto a trade with no explanation. Stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
