Delayed Effect Trades (1 Viewer)

Wondering if this is a common thing in leagues around here:

Team A trades a player to Team B, effective now.

Team B returns a player, effective next week or the week after.

Obviouly, you'd only do this under certain circumstances, and it is perfectly legal under the league rules, but I just thought I would ask people's opinion on whether this is something your league allows, and what you think of the idea.

I guess if the rules allow it it's, "ok", but it sure seems like player borrowing/renting to me.

I wouldn't allow it. It IS borrowing.

Put yourself in the place of the teams they are playing. Do they think it fair that they have to play against the rosters of both teams ? If you don't have a rule against it, you may want to consider one for next year.

That's a bunch of crap.

The only type of delayed trades that are allowed in my leagues are conditional trades and even then, the delayed compensation is only in a pick or FA cash nature.

Example: I trade a player to another team for a 2nd round pick. The guy is an injury risk so the other owner says that if he doesn't play at keast 10 games this year, I have to give him a 4th round pick back.

I would never play in a league that allowed this kinda stuff.

Sounds like someone is trying to wiggle around collusion.

Pretty mickey mouse stuff. I would never play in a league that allows this. You agree on a trade, the trade happens on that date. Could you imagine if this happened in the NFL? Ridiculous.
