So this happened...

Postby DinoDynasty » Thu Nov 16, 2017 3:04 pm

As the commish all trades come across my desk, never do I veto unless its collusion. I almost vetoed today, but surprisingly didn't have to.

Team A (2-8, 11/12 place) offers Team A's 2018 1st

to

Team B (5-5) for
Josh Gordon

Team B declines instantly.

So the guy who owns Gordon declined a top 2 pick for him? Are they both drunk?

I wish I could attach the conversation where he said that Gordon's potential to be dynasty asset #1 is significantly higher than any top 2 picks.

Why do you see trade negotiations? Should only come to you after a trade is accepted

Correct. Need to turn off that feature as it gives an unfair advantage.

EDIT-That is unless you don't have a team in this league, as others have said.

So this is a league where one guy was foolish enough to offer a top 2 pick for Josh Gordon, another guy was foolish enough to reject a top 2 pick for Josh Gordon, and where the commish spies on people's trade negotiations.

Sounds swell.

If Gordon stays clean, he may very well end up being a top 10 WR by 2018. This is just another example of why vetoes in dynasty are generally a bad idea. I own Gordon in both my leagues, and have for a very long time. I've been on record as saying I wouldn't sell for less than a high 1st. LIttle crazy, yes. But I have a right to that valuation, and if someone else thinks he will re-ascend to his early career form...

Oh, and if you own a team in this league, your leaguemates should kick you out of your league. LOL. Huge fail.

What do you mean "all trades come across my desk"? You get to see all offers and comments, even when the trades are rejected? I agree that if you have a team in this league, that is SUPER shady. And you would have to be the most naive person in the world to not know that it's dirty, and gives you a competitive advantage.

I'm more concerned with you seeing trade offers
