Is this a fair trade or not?

10-team league-Standard scoring

Team 1 (currently in 1st place) trades away Jonathan Taylor & Garrett Wilson (who I’ve never heard of) to Team 2 (currently in 3rd place) in exchange for Jalen Hurts.

Bear in mind that Team 1 has Chubb (1) & Barkley (3), but is only giving up Taylor (32). I realize Taylor was the top ranked player going into the year, but outside of Week 1 he’s been a total bust. I think most here would agree especially if you picked him.

Team 1 (again 1st place) had to resort to starting David Carr this week. QB is his only weak position.

Team 2 has Tua behind Hurts so he’s wanting to improve at RB and is getting a <10 point averaging a week Jonathan Taylor.

Anyway, this trade ended up being vetoed by a 4/8 vote to do so.

I was just wondering what the consensus here would be on this trade.

Thumps up=Uphold Trade
Thumbs down=Veto Trade

I think it’s fine. Which side are they upset about? Hurts to the #1 team?

Anyone voting to veto this trade is a bitch. Trade is completely reasonable

If a trade isn’t obvious collusion, it shouldn’t be veto’d.

Lol I'd venture to say in a 1QB setting, most trade evaluators out there still have Taylor over Hurts. And the ones that have Hurts ahead, probably not by much.

Yes the trade is more than fair, and if anything team 1 is giving up too much for Hurts. Veto’s should only be used to prevent collusion. In this case, the veto is actually being used to collude against the team in 1st place.
Also, you mentioned Taylor being a bust this year. That can change at any moment and if Taylor wasn’t struggling this trade would not likely have been discussed anyways. If you and your league mates can’t be reasonable then refer to one of many trade value charts (e.g FantasyPros) they have all over the internet to objectively decide.
