I'm as confused as everyone else why you'd want to trade away those 2. Usually I try to trade FOR those type of players. The only player you'd look to trade those players for is a top 5 RB. And even if you got that trade, then you'd have to start Hixon to replace Randy Moss. top 5 RB + Hixon isn't as good as Thomas + Moss.

Side Note 1: That original trade is kinda lopsided, but not so ridiculous as to be veto-able IMO. Lucky you.
Side note 2: How did you end up with AP, Forte, and Randy Moss? Are you in a 6-man league? Nice drafting if not.

Why did the trade get vetoed? A trade should never be vetoed unless collusion is present. A trade should never be vetoed to protect an owner or because it makes one team stronger. Sounds like your league is set up for the owners to vote or the commissioner doesn't know what he is doing. :-t

I feel for the guy who pulled off this trade and got shafted by the veto. :-t

Can I please be in your league next year? How did you land AD, Forte, and Moss even in an 8 team league? Did everybody draft a QB with their first pick? :-B

I don't really see why you need to trade for anything. Your roster is super solid at RB and WR. QB could be iffy if Cutler bombs. But overall thats a GREAT team. Stand Pat.

definitely a really solid team; i don't know why you're trying to trade! unless you're like me and obsessed with trading, in which you need to figure out where you can improve ;-D definitely solid at both RB and WR, maybe look to upgrade at QB and TE (though those aren't bad)? cutler *may* bust, and pennington looked quite solid yesterday against the bucs. pierre is more than a solid bench RB, and he'll definitely get plenty of work this season as he's the "main" back, with reggie just providing swingman support. i'd hold on to moss as well, as i believe he's going to be the #1 receiver this year. royal and gonzalez will have huge years as everything's all set up for them, so you can afford to package roddy + cooley for an elite TE to a team that needs WRs.

happy trading!
