I think he got someone elses pick via tradeYou lost me... you won the league and get the #2 pick?Your nuts, and it is a non ppr league. Foster and Vick were #1 and #2 in the scoring system last year PPG and by a lot of at each position over their peers.I nearly choked on my food as I opened and read the email starting with "you might this is a lot to ask but hear me out..."Not to mention that this guy is in my division and my #1 rival so I would have handed him the title last year instead of winning it myself.Foster vs Peterson is a coin flip.Non-ppr, i would consider that without the pick, depending on my roster.I know it's Peterson but this has to qualifyA guy in my dynasty league mid season last year offered meHe wanted to give me PetersonHe wanted me to give him A-FosterM-VickB-Marshall2011 1st round pick of a team that was 2-7 at the time (ends up being #2 this year for me)

Besides the fact that he's already clarified it in this thread, its not hard to figure out where the 1.2 came from if you read his original post.It says it came from a team that was 2-7 at the time of the trade--aka, another team's 1st.

I think every league has the owner who only makes the worst trade offers. Never makes a deal unless he's completely ripping off the other guy. Here's the most recent I got from him...
McFadden, Darren OAK RB
Holmes, Santonio NYJ WR
Sims-Walker, Mike JAC WR
Dreessen, Joel HOU TE
Year 2012 Round 1 Draft Pick (This is a top 5 team in a 32-team league)
for:
McCoy, LeSean PHI RB
Cobb, Randall GBP WR
Fitzgerald, Larry ARI WR
Graham, Jimmy NOS TE
McFadden, Darren OAK RB
Holmes, Santonio NYJ WR
Sims-Walker, Mike JAC WR
Dreessen, Joel HOU TE
Year 2012 Round 1 Draft Pick (This is a top 5 team in a 32-team league)

Cobb, Randall GBP WR

Here's one I just received...12 team dynasty ppr league. It's a higher stakes league and I won the whole thing last year so it's not like I'm desperately looking for draft picks...love the "comment."
Trade Proposal Team A proposed a trade with Team B:
Team A will give
Owens, Terrell CIN WR
Year 2011 Draft Pick 2.10
Year 2011 Draft Pick 2.11
To Team B for
Maclin, Jeremy PHI WR
just threw in T.O. . Heart of the deal is the 2 second rounders for Maclin.

Exactly.Love those...I offered Arian foster 26 times last offseason. I was pitching him as a top 20 RB. Got shot down all over the place. Now all those offers look like steals had anyone accepted. I'm glad I play in a league where guys go out of their way to protect me from myself.
That would probably make for another interesting thread. An offer you sent in the past that you are now happy wasnt accepted.Exactly.Love those...I offered Arian foster 26 times last offseason.

Sticking with the Arian Foster/"save myself from myself" offers:I offered Foster to the Steve Slaton owner last year in exchange for Lex Hilliard (I had Ronnie/Ricky). The catch was that I wanted him to throw in a 2nd round rookie pick, and he felt that I should throw in the 2nd round pick. He contended that Hilliard would end the season with more points than Foster, who he felt would not make the final roster. After some back and forth banter, we wound up unable to come to terms, but instead betting $50 on which one would have more fantasy points on the season.Everyone knows what Foster did. Hilliard had 0 yards on the season despite being healthy all year.'Go deep said:That would probably make for another interesting thread.

You need help
Youre allowed to trade 2014 picks? Thats crazier than the offer.

Footballguy
Sorry didnt read the whole thing just the trade offer
Can someone enlighten me? I understand how and why this (and others) are so bad. Why are they even being offered? Is the "offerer" counting on the recipient being drunk enough to actually hit the wrong button?
In my experience trades like this are usually offered when you send what another team considers a bad offer. Then they send one like this that is totally lopsided as a way of saying your offer was not only bad, but insulting.

Beat this:
In my 12-team IDP Dynasty last week, I possessed the 5th pick in round 5. I planned to take Bruce Carter and taxi squad him for the season. Sadly, he went 5.04. I approached the guy about a deal for Carter involving the 5.05 and some more picks. Easy negotiations you would think right? Here is his response to my Carter request:
Bruce Carter/6.09/8.04
for...wait for it...
Jamaal Charles/7.05
UNREAL!

Obviously he feels sorry for our friend and wants him to remain competitive in the league, so he's willing to give him a first round pick practically free!! Also, he has this used car...I would then ask the other owner why he would want a player whose production is diminishing so quickly.
"Clueless" proposed a trade with dexterdew
"Clueless" will give
Freeman, Josh TBB QB
Newton, Cam CAR QB
Addai, Joseph IND RB
Green-Ellis, BenJarvus NEP RB
Gates, Edmond MIA WR
Lloyd, Brandon DEN WR
To
dexterdew for
Tebow, Tim DEN QB
Johnson, Chris TEN RB
Bowe, Dwayne KCC WR
The response was something like "adding more players does not make it better, and I don't have 3 players I want to drop"
Not sure why I didn't offer a fifth rounder and 5 non-starters for his 1st and 3rd round pick

That is a problem I have with many offers I receive. My rosters simply don't have more than one or two players I can cut (usually one that I keep available for waiver wire prospects) and if I am offered 3+ extra players I am faced with cutting some of my developmental projects (which I am loathe to do). For some reason, many owners have this quanitity over quality approach and don't take into consideration that adding several additional players for the other owner is not viable.

Not in this case this is what the guy really thinks he is worth I never made an offer for Turner.

Last year after I drafted Jahvid Best with the 1.3 pick, the Kevin Smith owner offered him to me for my 2010 1.5 pick, 2011 first rounder and 2012 first rounder. He acted shocked when I rejected it.

I got all this beat. A couple days ago, I offered got offered Barber and the 1.09 for.... Vjax, Foster....... and the 3.06. Because, you know, he'd be giving up too much value if I was giving him just Vjax and foster alone. Hitting "reject" was not a strong enough option. I wish there was a "punch in the crotch" option.

12 team PPR:
Shortly after our 2010 startup auction in which I purposely overpaid for Finley (so, clearly, I REALLY like him):
Pick 2.09, Celek, Brent PHI TE (in auction Celek went for $18, 2.09 went for $1)
for Finley, Jermichael GBP TE (auction went for $42)
*** *** ***
In August 2010:
Butler, Deon SEA WR;Camarillo, Greg MIN WR;Driver, Donald GBP WR;Hartley, Garrett NOS PK
for Norwood, Jerious ATL RB;Johnson, Calvin DET WR;Nelson, Jordy GBP WR;Prater, Matt DEN PK
Basically Driver for Calvin at the time. Thanks, but no thanks. (Calvin went for $87, Driver went for $6)
*** *** ***
Middle of the season:
Moore, Matt CAR QB;Williams, Roy DAL WR
for Johnson, Calvin DET WR
*** *** ***
Also middle of the season, though Brady at least made sense because my QB, Romo, had gone down:
Brady, Tom NEP QB;Jacobs, Brandon NYG RB;Driver, Donald GBP WR; Year 2011 Round 3 Draft Pick
for Hall, Max ARI QB;Charles, Jamaal KCC RB;Johnson, Calvin DET WR

IME, it's most likely that the owner is throwing a feeler and doesn't want to make the first fair offer, worrying that he'll take less than possible.

Footballguy
you guys are too sensitive. the guy just wants you to make the first offer.
eakfootball
Footballguy
The Poz trade is not a good offer at all, but its not that bad.
SproutDaddy
Footballguy
No, it wasn't like that. The guy wasn't a good owner. His team never won more than 2 games. We only started 1 QB, and this guy rostered anywhere from 8-12 of them with possibly 2 who were starters. He had a history of making horrible offers. You don't know what you're talking about.

How about this one:
Calvin and my 1st for Percy and his 2nd

okay, maybe this guy sucks. still, most of the owners I've been in leagues with who send things like that are simply looking to initiate a conversation and either don't know what you want or are afraid to initiate with a fair offer.

One time at MFL I offered the same player in multiple trades, one person accepted & one of trades didn't auto-delete leaving a trade that I was giving up nothing.
ConnSKINS26

I would have petitioned for that guy to be out of the league long ago, then. That kind of crap really unbalances a league, and makes it less fun. A 2/3 vote should have been able to do it, in this extreme circumstance.

And I would think you are right.I'm pretty sure this is the same guy that offered me Massaquoi, DHB & 5th for my VJax & 3rd today

Now he tried trading me Earl Thomas & Revis (who he just won for a $1 in our auction) for Berry.And I would think you are right.I'm pretty sure this is the same guy that offered me Massaquoi, DHB & 5th for my VJax & 3rd today
Clifford
Footballguy
Which side is the bad one?
Yeah, thats not bad, although i clearly prefer the Hardesty side. Mass and Claussen are barely rosterable.
Obviously, not an offer you would be too inclined to accept. However, given team needs and value of waivers its not a horribly unfair offer.
Dude in my league does this all the time for the same reason - usually ask what the price is. Calls himself Sigmund Bloom.
