    Standard scoring league. 6pt passing TDs Start 1 QB, 2 WR, 2 RB, & 1 Flex.
    Guy wants to trade Vick & Wells for Blount, Orton, & McNabb.

    The guy trading Vick & Blount has Freeman who he would start. Since he has Freeman why would he want to add Orton & McNabb so bad? What do they really bring to the deal for him? So then is Blount going to be that much better than Wells this year?

    I would take Vick and Wells in this one hands down.  Vick is better then any those 2 qb's and who even needs to qb's.
    As for wells, he will be a FT back so to me he has much more value.  Blount.  Blount cannot catch so he will not be used in passing game.

    I think it's hugely in the favor of the guy getting Vick and Wells so I don't think it's fair at all. I'd jump on it.

    Bullshit trade vetoed.
    I've talked to 7 league members not involved in the trade and 6 think it's a joke. The other person doesn't know shit so doesn't have an opinion lol.

    Appreciate the thoughts.

    Totally lopsided toward the Vick side.  I don't even think that trade would be fair if Wells was not involved.

    Did either player have any other plans to trade some of these players after this trade?

    that has got to be a BS trade...Totally 1 sided

    Instead of giving up a blount type of player, it would be more like a top 5 or 6 rb like Felix Jones or a charles even,....

    We ended up letting Vick (2nd rd) for Blount (3rd rd) & Orton (9th rd) go through. I like the Vick side of it better but it's probably close enough.

    Next year I'm banning all preseason transactions in my leagues so I won't have to worry about any stupid nonsense like this.
    Why the hell does someone draft a player just to trade them immediately after the draft
