Joined a dynasty startup league with a bunch of strangers from a facebook group page. We filled the league, got everyone in a group chat and agreed to draft 3 hours later. The commish said he was going to allow pre-draft trading.
He is the only one that gets a trade with anyone.
Trade between commish and Team A for a lot of start-up picks.
Commish gets 1/2/3
Team B gets 2/3/4--as well as the the commishes 2020 1/2/3
Team A is picking 1st, so obviously you're taking Barkley there. And while getting all of someone's rookie picks is nice--downgrading your 1st 3 picks of the STARTUP draft seems insane. A lot of people voiced concern, and the commish decided to cancel it.
Fast forward 4 weeks.
Commish and Team A strike a deal.
Commish gets: Barkley/Godwin/Waller
Team A gets: Conner, OJ Howard, Tyrell Williams, Breida, Damien Williams
While I'm a huge advocate of not vetoing trades unless obvious collusion--the situation now gives me pause.
I don't think I would give up Barkley for that package, but to each their own I definitely wouldn't give up Barkley and Godwin for that package. And with it being between the same 2 teams--it strikes me as a red flag.
But then part of me wonders if I'm being a butt hurt sissy that the commish got a good deal.
