Personally, I agree with everyone, as strange as that may sound. But as I told Brent privately, I am trying to look at things from the perspective of the league, and no individual players in the league. I do not have a problem with trading draft picks....as long as there are players with at least somewhat equal value changing teams as well.
For example, I recently sent Hixson this offer:
Marques Colston
4th Round Pick 2015
for
Frank Gore
6th Round Pick 2015
I ended up cancelling the trade because of the situation we have found ourselves in currently, but this is more along the lines of what I would hope to see in trades. Regarding the trade in question, that deal helps Jack's team absolutely zero this season.
As much as we call ourselves a keeper league, we are about as close to a redraft league as one can possibly come without being called a redraft league. We have the option of keeping only one player, which is not mandatory, and you are penalized a draft choice if you keep that player.
This type of trade I would have zero problem with if this were a Dynasty league, but it's not.....yet...who knows what ideas Alex is going to bring to the table after the season.
Im still in the veto camp, but we need to hear from at least 2/3rds of the league before deciding anything.
