I would question why its a QB/TE for QB/TE trade when one side is getting both the better QB and better TE.

I was expecting something whacky, I honestly don't know which side got the better of the deal here. Rodgers has outplayed Luck, but expectations were similar and Olson>Green.

You think Luck is better to own than Rodgers?

Rodgers has outplayed Luck
I'd like to see the owner receiving Luck/Green to explain his thought process.
A trade like this (positions being the same) that only upgrades one team is a red flag for me.

It's a lopsided trade but I don't think i could veto as a commish.
Would i express my displeasure? hell yea. Especially if im trying to compete with the 2-2 team. This clearly throws the balance off in the league, but can easily be argued on paper for either side.

This. Doesn't make a ton of sense. Not to mention Gates comes back this week, making Green even worse to own

The other team is getting a lesser QB and lesser TE (same positions). Yes, that's fishy.

Lopsided or not, what exactly is the point of the deal?
Posted on 10/5/15 at 4:00 pm to drizztiger
it's still early enough in the season to lean on Luck's track record. A guy who accounted for 43 TDs last year and 4700yards passing.
Rodgers is playing really well(some good games, and leaning on one huge game to this point), but this isn't deep enough into a season to close the book on Luck.
Ladarius Green's stats prorated to 4 games (he missed a game) are slightly better than Greg Olsen's. Yes, Gates is coming back but Green should still be a factor here.
20-232-3
17- 243-2
Is the guy receiving Luck/Green banking on Luck picking up the pace soon, to a point where he is better or equal to Rodgers? Could he think Green is on the midst of something big? I don't really know. Would I do it? No. Would i voice my displeasure? absolutely. Could I veto it? no. And im a huge veto proponent

If it were any QB other then luck is flip my shite
Posted on 10/5/15 at 4:18 pm to Lester Earl
Great feedback guys I really appreciate it... Trade was vetoed
Posted on 10/5/15 at 4:38 pm to Jayre
Team A may have been sick of his squad and wanted a change. He's 0-4, what's it going to hurt to take a risk? If Luck starts playing like 2014 luck, it could payoff.
BUT, Green's role is going to diminish now that Gates is back.

I'm an idiot, I thought Luck and Olsen were paired. Disregard my stupidity.

You just read it wrong. It happens.
