that trade needs to be explained
|
|
|
|
if you cancel out the K's and HC's, it is a 7-for-7 player trade. of the seven players offered by the Wolverines, three are injured and aren't even seeing the field.
how do those injured players have any value in the trade? this needs explanation.

Sure....

1. Both of our teams were sucking.
2. He and ranked each of the positions based upon what we both think will happen the rest of the season (assumed the injured players would return):
QB 1 Philip Rivers
QB 2 Drew Brees
QB 3 Matthew Stafford
QB 4 Carson Palmer
RB 1 Alfred Morris
RB 2 Reggie Bush
RB 3 Doug Martin
RB 4 Mark Ingram
RB 5 Lamar Miller
RB 6 DeAngelo Williams
RB 7 Toby Gerhart
RB 8 Roy Helu
RB 9 Lorenzo Taliaferro ®
WR 1 DeSean Jackson
WR 2 Jeremy Maclin
WR 3 Andre Johnson
WR 4 Larry Fitzgerald
WR 5 Emmanuel Sanders
WR 6 Brandon LaFell
WR 7 Malcom Floyd
WR 8 Michael Crabtree
WR 9 Wes Welker
WR 10 Greg Jennings
WR 11 Harry Douglas
TE 1 Vernon Davis
TE 2 Dwayne Allen
TE 3 Kyle Rudolph
TE 4 Coby Fleener
DF/ST 1 Denver Broncos
DF/ST 2 Seattle Seahawks
DF/ST 3 Baltimore Ravens
DF/ST 4 Green Bay Packers
K 1 Stephen Gostkowski
K 2 Adam Vinatieri
K 3 Robbie Gould
K 4 Mike Nugent
HC 1 Pete Carroll
HC 2 Marvin Lewis
3. Then he and I did a snake draft to divide up our players to try to even out our point production for the rest of the season to try to get us back to competitive. The trade was the result of the that draft. (WE did have to the make the second trade Ingram and Martin to allow for the injuries so Shawn had starters this week...And to make allowances for WR LaFell because he already played this week.)
We both find this a fair trade and method for the bottom two teams to make to try to save our seasons.

with the trade...
|
|
|
|
| I like the trade also. iv had to sign 6 to 8 players from free agent market do to injuries. My WR's were well below avg. and Steve's RB were all hurt. thought it was a fair trade to help both of are teams try to be competitive for the rest off the season. WE need to be perfect with 2 victory points the rest of the way just to have a chance for the playoffs. That's why the trade was made. |

You asked me for explanation...

|
|
...And I gave it.
SO let me ask for one. Why is this trade unfair? |

You are acting like these three players will never play again. That is not the case as each of those player are on a week to week status:
RB DeAngelo Williams - High Ankle Sprain
RB Toby Gerhart - Foot Sprain (He was scheduled return as starter last week, but reinjured the foot in practice last Wednesday. After Robinsons game yesterday his value may be near zero, but that happened AFTER we made the trade and we should not be held accountable for that.)
WR Harry Douglas - Deep Bruise on his foot.
As you can see NONE of those injuries are season ending nor serious. Shawn was willing to take the risk that these guys will have value for the rest of the season in order to improve two starting positions:
TE Dwayne Allen improved from Coby Fleener
WR DeSean Jackson improved from Greg Jennings
I was willing to give my Number 1 receiver and my backup TE (that was out performing Vernon Davis and should have been starting) in order to improve my RBs.
You are looking at this short term, one week, he and I made it with long term in mind. We are just doing what we should be doing as owners, attempting to make our team as competitive as possible for the rest of the season (and for both us this season that has been a real challenge with 4 VP combined...lol).
If you take an objective look at this trade with a long-term thinking, it is a fair trade that should stand.
