What's the nostradamus stuff all about?Trent Richardson is easily the consensus #1 pick in just about any format (only exception would maybe be a 2 QB league, but even then, I think Richardson goes ahead of him). So its not all that crazy for people to assume that is the target for the guy at 1.01.As for your major complaints, I was in a startup recently and Trent Richardson went 8th overall as the 4th RB off the board, ahead of Larry Fitzgerald. The 1.05 rookie pick is worth more than Lloyd (I think most would agree), but if a guy really likes Richardson, I could see that dropoff as being worth it. If your league mate agrees with the draft experts that Richardson is the best RB prospect since ADP (with better pass catching ability that arguably could make him a more valuable fantasy RB) and that he will be a true #1 stud RB for the next 6-8 years, then I can easily see how he would give up what he did to acquire him. Especially since Fitz turns 29 this summer, has a crappy QB situation (unless Manning unexpectedly lands there) and is coming off of 2 disappointing seasons in a row. It's not crazy to think that Fitz's value could fall off a cliff after this season when he turns 30 if he has another mediocre season. Now, your leaguemate could end up being wrong and losing this deal, but he also has a reasonable chance of winning this transaction.Personally, I would prefer Fitz and 1.05 over Richardson and Lloyd, but not by a ton. This a pretty fair trade and throwing a hissy fit about seems kind of crazy to me. In my opinion, people like you who assume the value that you assign to players is absolutely 100% correct and who want to manage everyone else's roster for them and complain about every trade that you wouldn't have personally made are the types who kill leagues.
Tell ya what, send me $30 and you can buy my team. You'll fit right in.
