Just accepted a trade where I give up Jahvid Best and Mario Manningham for Chris Johnson and Braylon Edwards. Braylon is just a throw-in. I didn't ask for him. He needed to unload a roster spot so this is really a 2-for-1. Did I pull the trigger too quick? This is a 12-team PPR. My new lineup would be:
RB1 Chris Johnson RB2 Darren McFadden WR1 Calvin Johnson WR2 Kenny Britt RB/WR flex Mark Ingram
UPDATE: Seems like some members in the league are trying to convince everyone to veto the trade because they think the trade is too lopsided. I think they are scared of my potential starting lineup. If the trade gets vetoed because they got a majority to vote against, is this something I have a right to bitch about it to the commissioner. I feel like trades should only be vetoed if there is obvious collusion (which this is clearly not). Do people have the right to vote for ANY reason?

leaves you a little weak at flex but yeah i think you won people are giving up on CJ2K too soon

Braylon isn't useable, so it's basically a 2-for-1. I do agree that people are giving up on CJ2K too quickly, but Best has a decent chance to compete with him for value, making giving up Manningham a bonus for the other guy. Still, if Best gets hurt....like he normally does (and coaches aren't helping by making him a workhorse), I'd take CJ2K over Manningham any day. It really doesn't matter now that you've already pulled the trigger, but I still think you did well overall. Run DMC and CJ2K is a nice 1-2 punch and your WRs are solid! The flex spot will be rotated from week to week and Ingram isn't bad.

This is not close to a vetoable trade.
If it was CJ2k for Braylon, then yes, but this trade isnt even close

That's the way I feel about vetoes also. Should only be allowed to prevent obvious collusion. How do I make the argument to the commish to push the trade through? I am certain it will get vetoed otherwise

UPDATE: Seems like a few members of the league are trying to convince people to veto the trade because they think the trade is "too lopsided". I don't think this is lopsided at all. Best has CJ-type upside in a PPR and is getting 25 touches a game in a better offense. I think they are scared of my potential starting lineup. If the trade gets vetoed because they got a majority to vote against, is this something I have a right to bitch about it to the commissioner.
