Yesterday the Joseph Randle owner proposes an offer to the Mcfadden owner for.... wait for it.

Mcfadden for Ben Watson.

Mcfadden owner also owns Jimmy. What's the publics opinion on this transaction?

You don't think with the gap in talent, the situation of other players, that there's possible collusion going on?

Is there reason to believe these two owners are colluding a week before the season starts?

watson and mcfadden is a gap in talent? How is 34 year old watson that much before than oft-injured McFadden? Is it because it is the Saints and watson may be the 1st string TE?

Watson isnt owned in 4 of my 12 man PPR leagues or my 14 team PPR league

As of today McFadden is in line to get the majority of carries in DAL

Which makes it a dumb trade but not veto worthy.

It's borderline so stupid as to suggest collusion.

It was known before today that Mcfadden was leading the charge in the backfield. The guys reasoning is he needs a back up TE for week 9 when Jimmy is on a bye. I think there's collusion. Eifert, Gates, Allen, Rudolph are all avaliable but this guy chooses to trade a possible starting RB behind a top 3 line. Just trying to understand any logic to this before I put that pussy on a chainwax.

How many years has the league been around? What's the buy-in? HAve these guys made suspect trades before?

there are dumb trades and there are trades that upset the integrity of a league. There is no rational explanation one could explain for making that trade, especially if

Eifert, Gates, Allen, Rudolph are all avaliable


Trades are automatically pushed through in my league with no veto ability, but if I was commish id just throw the guys back on their respective teams and say try again

Yeah, id love to hear the rationale

It was vetod and is now

Ben Watson
Terrance Williams

Darren Mcfadden
Micheal Crabtree

I just feel like he's giving up Mcfadden up for no reason to the Randle owner. It's a bad move for the league to let this type of idiocracy to go on. Been around for 6 years, $150 buy in.

That doesn't really change the trade at all. It just added two throwaway players.

ETA: I don't see how people would buy in for $150 just to throw it away like this.

Terrance Williams is the best player in that trade.

Is everybody just all of the sudden assuming that brittle DMcF is for the first time in a long time going to stay healthy? Nope. Dude is soft. No chance in hell he plays all season without missing time.
