Ok, this is the exact same person i've been talking about on here, the one who offers one sided trades that will benefit himself and not the other team just offered me one of his one sided garbage trades. I was offered Tim Hightower, Matt Cassel, & Derek Anderson in exchange for David Garrard and Jamal Lewis. Now, this is the third time this person has offered me Tim Hightower, Matt Cassel, and Derek Anderson. You would think by now he would get the message by now that I don't want Matt Cassel and Derek Anderson. If he would have offered me just Tim Hightower, maybe, JUST MAYBE I would have accepted the trade. So what I did was I gave this person a taste of his own medicine by offering him a one sided trade in MY favor knowing the offer will be rejected anyway. If he still doesn't learn from this, then plan B is accepting his next garbage trade offer BUT knowing the commissioner will veto the trade because the commish in this league will veto one sided trades.
Even the commish has advised me to NOT trade with this person. I know exality why I was offered this trade too. I actually accepted a trade offer from the commish who offers FAIR TRADES might I add. So this person saw that and probably thought I would accept this offer too. So right now, i'm on plan A which is giving this person a taste of his own medicine. If that doesn't work, then it's on to plan B.
haha... I think there is one of those guys in every league... just praying you accidently hit the accept button. What did you offer him back?
I offered him David Martin, Warrick Dunn, & Ryan Torain in exchange for Peyton Manning, Larry Fitzgerald, & Matt Forte.
Like I said, next time I will hit the accept button UNPURPOSE for one of his garbage trade just so the commish can veto it.
I dont think the initial trade is that bad. Hightower will probably outscore Lewis the rest of the year and Garrard and Cassel are a wash, maybe a ever so slight advantage to Garrard. Anderson has been benched so just drop him. If you have a good #1 QB I would at least consider it. With Hightower starting now he is going to put up some points. 109 yds and a td last week.
If he just offered me Hightower, I would have accepted the trade, MAYBE. However, the rest of the trade offer was garbage. I don't take garbage in return.
I am not sure how it is garbage. Anderson maybe garbage but drop him, Garrard and Cassel are a wash. In my league Garrard avg's 19pts a game and Cassell 17ppg.
Yeah, well thats your league, lol. In a lot of other leagues, 19 and 17 points from one person won't win ya many games, depending on the scoring of the league.
I am not sure what to make of your response. I was trying to compare the 2 qb's to show you that there isn't that much difference between the two.
You were talking about Cassel and Garrard averaging 19 and 17 points in your league. That won't win ya very many games in a high scoring league. A low scoring, maybe.
You don't have a real strong comprehension of ratios, do you? Unless you have a whacked scoring system, Garrard and Cassel will, and have been, giving you similar points. 19/17, 38/34, 9.5/8.5, it's all the same. The trade was not bad at all. I'd prefer Hightower over Lewis, slight edge but not much to Garrard, and drop Anderson once you have him. Bing bang boom everyones happy. Crap, if I was you, I'd consider re-offering Garrard and Lewis for Cassel and Hightower straight up, leave Anderson out of the deal.
I got more comprehension ratios then what you give me credit for pal. The trade is a dead issue anyway and besides, it would have been vetoed anyway by the commish. I did accept a trade from the same person just now. I was offered Edgrenn James for Antonio Bryant.
