Should this trade be allowed or vetoed as collusion?

TomCowley,

You should post a lot more IMO.

So LT's awesoemness manged to get this guy to 1-5 and you are saying that his team deserevs to suck for the rest of season? This trade might be good for the team with depth to give, but it's not blatantly unfair.

I would suspect collusion if something like Kenny Watson, Ike Hilliard and Bo Sciafe for LT was proposed.

That isn't even close to anything that would resemble collusion.

Fantastic point. If Edwards and LT are so great, and the dude is 1-5, clearly this can't be that bad. You're judging this on a 4TD game and Edwards massively overplaying. Meanwhile clearly Parker has been underperforming. Parker has games left against Cinci(2), NYJ, Clev, Miami. LT's next opponents in order:

Hou, Min, Ind, Jax, Bal, KC, Ten.... there's a slew of tough games in there.

Meanwhile the next 4 games for Eli:

Mia, Dal, Det, Min. All brutal secondaries for big points. it's not like he's playing Chicago-Baltimore-Tampa or something. It's a great pick up.

In the next 4 weeks I'd be shocked if the 3 players he got didn't outscore LT+Edwards 7 to 5, or something like that. And that's enough to call a fair deal. Enough with being such a douche.

In my league my brother got Boldin and Bush in two trades where the most pivotal players he had to give up were Chambers and Holmes. I mean obviously on paper it's brutal for me. But it's not collusion. he just sent a bad team a lot of parts to get better, and he obviously filled one of his roster spots with a top guy.

I also love how OP rips on everyone's reading comprehension when he's the only one not understanding his own rules that he posted.

the inclusion of braylon makes this trade really bad. swap bralala with marshall and its fair.

look, dude is getting the unquestionably best rb along with a top 5 wr (and possibly top 3.) braylon is a beast and performing exceptional this year.

in return hes getting 2 tier 2 players who will finish in the lower part of the top 10 for the positions.

and driver who is completely mediocre.

this trade stinks.

You're basing this on 6 games from Edwards. Driver is still projected to do better come year end. I mean in my pool Leon Washington has more points then Parker. What then ?

[Victor]

rafiki, would you like to make some sort of bet on braylon vs driver production?
