Any laughable offers lately?

Postby Rustyram78 » Mon Jul 28, 2014 9:05 am

Looking for a few laughs today and an offer I received yesterday spurred this post.

In a league where I have Rivers and Manuel at qb, stacked at wr and good at rb, I have Gronk, Green and Rudolph in a start 2 te format.

Out of the blue I get this-

I give Gronk
I get Donald Brown and Gates.

Told him Gronk s startup ADP is 19, Brown 204 and Gates 206. Nuff said.

He counters with this in a start 1 qb-

I give Gronk
I get Romo and Gates

He is weak at every position except for A ROD and Graham.

I offer , Pierce, Patterson and Rudolph for Jimmy. All 3 would be immediate starters for him, and CPAT his best WR behind Fitz.

He replies that he wouldn't consider moving Graham for that price.....

Got a laugh out of it and wanted to share.

Anyone have any laughers lately???

Got those two offers in my 32 teamers (no player doubles, IDP) the past few days:

Rookie pick #159 for Marquess Wilson.

Rookie pick #72 for Rod Streater.
3x teams in 32-team standard PPR + IDP leagues

It doesn't matter what we want. Once we get it, we want something else.

I was offered AP for DT, Ben Tate, and the 1.09. He was serious.

You should be laughing at yourself for a terrible offer.

I offered Jordan Reed and 2.01 for 1.03. There was no laughter, only silence.

But now am working on getting 1.10 for Reed and Da'Rick Rodgers. Think that's a good price, willing to pay it since I have Gronk, Ladarius Green and Charles Clay.

Don't know if it's that laughable, but was offered 3.04 for Ridley in non PPR.

I was giving him a low ball offer for offering me two in a row and I was very gracious in my responses.....

I pretty sure he was countering with a lower level offer to demonstrate what it feels like to receive one for a top TE. That's how I read the post anyways.

A guy that always sends me laughable bad offers sent me a "Chris Polk for Spiller" text yesterday.. Followed by "Whoops, wrong person" text.

Nice to know he's not sending those type of offers to just me

Poor trade etiquette, IMO

I got an offer of my Torrey Smith for his Ben Tate, which in itself is not laughable. However I told him that Ben Tate didn't really interest me as I think he's a bit overrated and don't trust him to stay healthy. We went back and forth with a few counters, and the responses I got were always curt and rude. Finally I told him thanks but no thanks. Then he sends me his final offer: Ben Tate for Torrey Smith. :wall:

The same as his original offer! That I told him I wasn't interested in... and he demanded that I accept it. LOL!

Yeah I got this gem of an offer a few days ago it's still siting in my inbox.

I give:
Trent Richardson, Ind RB
Justin Hunter, Ten WR
Marqise Lee, Jac WR
Bryce Brown, Buf RB
Allen Robinson, Jac WR

I get:
Shonn Greene, Ten RB
Ahmad Bradshaw, Ind RB
Mike Glennon, TB QB
Travis Kelce, KC TE
Logan Thomas, Ari QB

This guy is always sending the most lopsided offers. I've tried sending declines with no comments. I've also tried sending declines with comments albeit nothing ridiculing just trying to explain that he isn't even close in value. I've tried countering his offers with something that seems fair for both sides and I just get a decline saying he isn't interested in the player/players even though he sent the offer with those players to begin with. I've just given up now and have decided all offers from him now will sit until they expire.

Recently in a league where I have Matt Ryan, Tannehill, and Josh McCown, I was offered:

I get: Rothlesberger, Heath Miller
I give: Gronk

And a month before in the same league, I was involved in a trade that got me Alfred Morris for TRich. Not long after that was completed, I was offered (by the same owner) Roy Helu straight up for Roddy White
