Yes, I think that is the issue (them being 'jealous' about me making the deal before them). I'm one of the co-commissioners in the league, and was really the only guy that knew the new owner (a few others had met him). He entered the league on a Thursday, we got the trade done Saturday morning.

And yes, 3.25 and 3.28 are 3.05 and 3.08 (I feel like 3.25 almost makes more sense than 3.05 because it doesn't matter how big your league is. If you read 3.25 it means 3rd round pick, pick number 25 overall).

Gave - Dez, Doug Martin, Ertz, 1.08, 3.25, 3.28

Received - Antonio Brown, Mark Ingram, 1.07

Some others in the league aren't pleased about this trade. The owner I traded with just came into the league and took over an orphan team that is solid, but unspectacular (before trade: Matt Ryan, Stafford, Cutler, McCoy, Ivory, Ingram, McKinnon, Karlos Williams, J-Stew, A Brown, Lockett, Megatron (whoopsie), Davante Adams, Gates, Martellus, Jordan Cameron).

I put in a poll but would be interested in what people think. Trade rape or fair or somewhere in between?
Dez + Ertz +3rds <= AB
Martin > Ingram
1.08 = 1.07 (same tier)

This trade is completely fair.. If they are trying to complain about the fairness they are wrong. I can understand complaints about not having the opportunity to trade with him since you were the only one that knows him. Did they all have his contact information? Because if not then they have a legitimate complaint. In that case you had an unfair advantage by being the only person who can contact the new owner.

Just to pile on.... I like your end but it's not close to being something I'd have a fit over if it went down in my league.

I don't get it? I swear, people just like to whine about trades they're not involved in or didn't think they could pull off and someone else makes it happen. I'm so glad, and seemingly extremely lucky, that in all of my leagues, I just don't have to deal with managers like that.

x2 This comes down to Dez + Ertz for Brown. I prefer Brown as I don't think PHI and Ertz are going to be that good, but I could easily see the Dez side.
