8 Player Trade... Need advice.

[kenocamb32]

I currently want to trade:
C.Johnson, Ronnie Brown, Jennings, Brandon Lloyd
for
Gore, Bradshaw, Welker, Santana Moss.

Is this a really bad move? Clearly my players may have higher rankings but the players I would be getting are producing more and I feel will continue to do so. My league manager vetoed the trade indicating it was to lopsided, is this correct use of a veto?

IS there anyone who could help me with an opinion?
I just want an unbiased opinion as to why this trade is so bad for me.

In my league you start:
QB
RB
RB
WR
WR
TE
DEFENSE/ST
KICKER

QB's - Brady, (picked up palmer for this week)
WR - Jennings, Driver, Clayton, T.O., Brandon Lloyd
RB - CJ, Ronnie Brown, Cadillac Williams, Hightower
TE- Celek and Keller

Let me know if this is a really dumb move. I am a niners fan and like the pats. so I might be alittle bias but I dont see this trade being veto worthy.

I'm actually the commish in a couple leagues and I stay out of trades unless I see some clear cheating going on(ie: Team 1 is having shitty year so gives his good players to Team 2) For the most part, both teams want to get better so who are you, as the commish, to judge what value a team gets back. So to answer your question, No I don't think it is that lopsided to get veto'd. In fact, I can't figure out who they think it's lopsided towards...all the matchups are close enough to be strictly opinion calls. Did he think you were getting too good of a deal??

C. Johnson and Gore kinda even out - Both will be top 10 at their position....Edge goes to CJ though
Bradshaw and Brown even out - Both in the 11-20 range at their position...I give edge to Bradshaw.
Welker and Jennings even out(if ppr) - Both probably top 10 WR. Welker with more ppr points and GJ with more TD's. Probably a wash.
Moss and Lloyd - even out - Both will probably be in the 15-30 range of WR's... I give edge to Lloyd right now, but we'e all seen Lloyd disappear before. Also kind of a wash.

Now is it a good trade...meh...it's always had to judge return value when you're getting rid of the overall consensus #1 pick...either way I don't think it should have been veto'd. You like Gore...you should be able to get him.

Your commish had no business vetoing that trade. It's not his place to decide if someone got the better end of things, it's his place to make sure there's no player dumping or colluding going on, and that's it. If your leaguemates don't agree that the trade should go through, you should be making this your last year in that league or getting a new commish.

I don't know that I believe the trade makes you better, but you got the players you wanted, and that's the only thing that matters. Good luck, hope your commish sees the error of his ways.
