Houston tanking already? Only 44 players under contract after this trade.

4 QBs (2 suggested);

6 OL (10 suggested);

11 DL (7 suggested);

2 DBs (7 suggested) (both DBs are CBs; one of which is listed as the #1 SS and #3 CB, and the other listed as the #2 CB and #2 FS)

Where's the competition committee when it's needed?!

You can't judge this trade by his other one. This is a good trade for Houston because he got a first for a 2nd rounder at best.

It's a good possibility they are the same. The first trade kinda proved that

Beercloud-- reasoning behind the void?

Reasoning behind my madness:
Trade is unbalanced. LB with 59 speed, 900 trade value and avg 3 tackles per game including pre-season not worth a 1st rounder. He looks like he's gonna be a good pass defender but still not anywhere close to a first.

Couple that with Tennessee having already traded away their first rounders for the next 2 seasons. Ya better bring the house for the league to allow Tennessee to trade their 1973 1st rounder.

Yeah... No. I feel like the league already agreed that we'd let trades go however unless it was clearly unbalanced or collusion. I don't think this trade should've been rejected simply because you can argue that it's unfair. The trade Washington made with NYG could be argued as unfair. The trade Atlanta made with the Chargers could equally be as unfair. This is one you needed to let go through.

I also had several other offers from a few different teams, that involved their first round pick swap in exchange for the same player as well. As childish as it is to say, I feel that both Campton and I are being antagonized due to the suspicious nature that we joined on the same day and because of our prior trade. If this trade were with any of the other teams that offered me their first for my player, this would have been accepted by all. Beercloud, hopefully you are able to access my trade offers and verify that I could have potentially received a first, not just from Campton.

I realize that though I may not have as much experience in MFN as the rest of you, but my reasoning behind trading Tennessee is that they are in the same division. I play Tennessee twice, and am confident that in the long term, the picks will help me win the division. Even now, I feel as it is possible to win twice, since we are both new, league is "fresh", and still learning, albeit I don't have many star players left. And I figure, if I beat Tennessee, I can get a lower pick. No offense to Campton, who I'm sure has his own strategy, but this is my reasoning behind the trades I've made with him so far.
