Approve or Deny Trade Commissioner WHIR (1 Viewer)

I am a commissioner in a ppr league and the following trade was approved Sunday night after the news of the Big Ben injury. To be specific the Brown owner approved the trade. Team A receives Cobb, Jordan Matthews and Matt Jones, Team B receives Antonio Brown. The rosters are below, would you approve this trade now that Matthews and Cobb are battling injuries and the news on Big Ben are that he might now even miss a game? The Brown owner is asking me to deny the trade.

Team B

I tend to lean on the side that unless there is clear, blatant collusion, I never veto trades.  

Was this deal accepted before the injuries to Cobb & Matthews?  If so, there's absolutely no way I'd veto.  If it was accepted after the injury news, I'd check with the AB owner and see why he accepted the deal, knowing those guys got banged up.

To me, there's no justifiable reason to nix a deal unless you can find hard evidence of collusion.  The Brady owner will end up with a great squad after Big Ben returns, but that's not his fault that the Tyrod owner agreed to the trade.

Good luck, and please see mine if you have a minute:

Nothing wrong with the trade, and DEFINITELY no chance that an owner should be able to undo one after injury news comes out.  Thats the risk of trading.  We've all had a past trade that blew up on us because of injury.  I traded a pretty nice package of players for Aaron Rodgers a couple years ago, one week before he broke his collarbone and missed the rest of the regular season.  Tough luck, part of the game.  

 
No collusion then no veto.  Let owners manage their team as they see fit.   The Brown owner getting cold feet after agreeing to a trade should not be considered after he accepted.
