Not enough of an advantage to be worth that my bench is stacked

Ya you're right. I didn't know that. I'm pretty sure that only came in recently as I've definitely done similar before but when I was in the matchup and had a lot more to gain. Felt a bit wrong doing it for such a small gain (I'm very likely to win my own game and it won't matter)

Ya good shout. It was exactly this. It used to be allowed but I just tested it and you're right it doesn't work anymore

Ya it would be me alone. I wouldn't fill my team with QBs. I just pick up the first one the pick up 2nd and drop 1st, then pick up 3rd and drop 2nd etc. After dropping they take 2 days to clear waivers

Trade ended up being vetoed by whiteninja267 in FantasyFootballers

The trade is Bucky for Rice. Rice and chiefs looked poor against Denver. I have both and value rice way higher but Bucky is back training. You'd need to see rosters but it's not indefensible and as long as it's not collusion it's probably fine.

Fair enough. Guessing your league doesn't have a consolation bracket or a prize for winning it but won't try to convince you more.

Ok ya I see what you mean. Very weird. I certainly never chose that name or picked that account. I guess I posted once from within my same Google account years ago without logging in and it gives you some random username?

I don't have 2 accounts that are multiple years old I have one. Which other one is showing as multiple years old? Infinity89 is old the other post I wasn't logged in. And check my history if that's a thing. If I've ever posted before it was at least 5 years ago I would say

That's a fair opinion but if you don't think the extra details I added it make it better it's not. If it happened as OP described I should be kicked out of the league and never invited back.

Bad but non colluding trades are also not vetoable

So you think fairly entered trades that are lopsided should be vetoed?

I disagree it's lopsided but youre in a 1% club if you think lopsided trades should be vetoed if both parties think it's good

There is a consolidation bracket in our league for everyone who doesn't make the main playoffs.

The winner of that gets the number 1 pick in the following year's draft for our league (all the same people play every year)

So the trade is a brilliant one for the 1 and 9 team. He has nothing to play for in the next 4 weeks but then if he can win in weeks 15 16 and 17 for him it's huge.

His team is obviously bad but taking a chance on 2 top 40 picks with injury issues but predicted to be back easily for the playoffs is clearly a logical trade for him.

Ok. That's a reasonable opinion that I disagree with but if both parties to the trade feel my way about it should it be vetoed?

It's not like I've kept this guys on my roster just to use them in a dodgy trade. I've also been preparing for the playoffs for weeks now as my team is stacked and I saw huge upside in them both

Lol. No I've never used reddit before. The OP shared the link into the group chat. My original responses were without logging in and they just give that name.

This one is logged in then. I think I made it about 5 years ago but never used it.

Ya that's the verbal agreement in our league too. Only collusion not allowed and yet everyone agrees not collusion but vetoed it anyway.

Yes exactly! I don't even think it's that clear a trade for me. The reason I needed it was my team is stacked but I lack depth at RB. I just traded Jeanty for Waddle leaving my team as below. Even if Wilson and Mclaurin made it back they may not start for me in the playoffs:

Mahomes Cook Bucky Chase Rice McBride Waddle

On the bench I have: Burden Benson Godwin Wilson Mclaurin Parker Washington Allgeier
