OK, I feel like kicking babies.

Person A gives up Todd Heap and Lendale White
Person B gives up Chad Johnson and Ernie Johnson

Person A has terrible RBs and no depth, but this trade obviously sucks.

My question, at what point do you veto a trade. I have never vetoed a trade, even unfair ones because I think a person should be rewarded for owning an idiot, but where do you draw the line?

I need to start 3 out of the 6 WR's

Donald Driver
Chris Chambers
Deion Branch
Derrick Mason
Dwayne Bowe
Lee Evans

I'm thinking Evans may finally have a breakout game, but Trent Edwards is his QB, so I'm probably going to sit him.

Branch is going up against either Clements or Walt Harris and that may be difficult.

Right now I'm leaning towards Driver, Chambers and Mason.

Should I put in Branch over Chambers or Mason? Mason is playing a poor poor Browns secondary, whereas Chambers is up against Asmougha or whatever his name is in Oakland.

I'd go with Driver and Chambers for sure. I'd lean Mason for the 3rd.

I still feel like kicking babies. Mostly because this week, Player B rejected this trade offer from me...

I give up McNabb, Calvin Johnson, Julius Jones
He gives up Chad Johnson, Alex Smith.

I mean, how does White/Heap help you out more than McNabb (currently starting Garrard/Rivers), Calvin Johnson and Jones. Grrrrrr.

Sooooo, veto the trade or not?

This is how I typically feel. I guess I should have pushed a little harder with trying to get Johnson. If the WR was Holmes or Colston I bet he would have accepted. apparently he thinks johnson's back bruise will nag him the entire year.

Sweet, I just noticed that the guy I am playing against this week has Rudi Johnson...I picked up Kenny Watson earlier this week. his other starter is Travis Henry and his bench is Brandon Jackson (injured?) and Ron Dayne (maybe starting?). It's looking like it's going to be a pretty easy week for me.

Ron Dayne is getting the start as far as I know. He should have an ok week against Atlanta

How bad is this trade:

My team:
QB: McNabb, Favre
RB: Gore, Marion Barber, Maroney, Lynch, Jacobs, Foster
WR: Wayne, Boldin, Santonio, D. Jackson, J. Jones (GB)
TE: Shockey
K: Elam
Def: Pitt

His team:

QB: Peyton, Garcia, Leinart
WR: R. Moss, L. Evans, A. Gonzalez, Joe Horn, B. Jones
RB: McGahee, M. Bell (Wtf), J. Jones, T. Jones
K: Wilkins
Def: Dallas

He obvious needs another RB, I have a ton. I want the premier WR in fantasy this eyar.

I give:

Maroney (or Lynch?)
Shockey
Boldin

I get:

R. Moss
V. Davis
L. Evans

L Evans sucks right now but I know he can turn it around. Davis is hurt. Available TE are LJ Smith, McMichael.

Any other possibilities without giving up Barber / Gore.
