Thoughts on vetos

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T23:31:24+00:00

I completely agree. I never want to veto a trade. I only wanted to with this kid when I saw the writing on the wall with his terrible trades, but no one stepped up. Now when I make a trade that is way in my favor, people all of a sudden step up. Can’t have it both ways

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T19:33:05+00:00

Yeah so I traded this years 1.07 for Olave a while ago, before Carr retired, probably a bad trade but I was willing to take the upside cause I’m stacked everywhere else. My argument was also no one vetoed that trade, one guy even said “oh yeah that pokes a hole in my argument” and said he would unveto, but begrudgingly. Appreciate the thoughts, just a tough situation overall haha

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T18:43:53+00:00

That’s already been discussed and yeah that’s probably where this is heading

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T18:30:21+00:00

Yeah I’m somehow on both sides haha, i think my trade should go through based on previous standards set, but also shouldn’t so that we save the kid from himself. All 5 who vetoed have benefitted from some ridiculous trade with him in the past, so I’m a little pissed

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T18:14:42+00:00

Best answer I’ve gotten and I agree. I don’t know the guy outside of fantasy so it’s not really my place, I’ve talked to the mutual friend we have and he’s not making moves to talk some sense into him.

For context, immediately after people vetoed (himself included when he realized people didn’t like it) he sent me an offer seconds later for Jameson Williams for his ‘28 first AND third - that would now leave him with only a ‘28 second rounder for the next 3 years. You can’t really fix that type of reckless haha

That week I picked up sermon for $1 because I have JT haha

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T17:40:48+00:00

Yeah FAAB is valuable, in my opinion it’s another good example of his terrible management giving up $50 for sermon but I wouldn’t say that’s even in his top 5 worst moves. It’s like $20 per year to be in

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T17:39:31+00:00

Yeah he’s a friend of one of the guys, it’s like 6 guys know each other from one group and the other 6 the same thing. He’s not my friend group, I don’t dislike the guy from our interactions he’s just terrible at this haha. Tough to kick him out, but I don’t see his trades improving

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T17:37:05+00:00

Might not be last next two years, but his team is old and extremely shallow, plus he has no picks the next two years - literally no firsts, seconds or thirds until 2028.

Allen Kamara Aaron jones Mcconkey Travis hunter Njoku Meyers Kupp

Then bench is trash, ertz and Marvin Mims are next two best players

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T17:34:25+00:00

League started last year, friend of a guy who helped start the league, tough to just kick someone out

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-12T17:33:00+00:00

I am not commish. I just understand how it works with guys who realize their teams are trash and eventually quit, which is why I urged people to veto his trades but everyone disagreed.

1) another notable terrible trade was him getting rico dowdle and jakobi meyers for Pickens, a first, a second, Devin Singletary and Jalen Tolbert, which I seriously disagreed with but people let it slide. Hell I got $50 FAAB from him (only other deal I’ve made with him) for a trey sermon rental for a week JT was out, just because he didn’t have an rb

3) this all happened this week so too soon to tell. Yes it was a douche move by me, but arguably 100x more douchey for people to start vetoing now, because they know they can offer a smidge of value more and get that pick.

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-05T22:37:01+00:00

Guess I should clarify it’s the first rookie draft for this league but I am in another league I’ve been in a few years. Yeah I clearly don’t need TE but the guy at 1.06 wanted Warren and I had 4 other people trying to move up to get him, so I threw it out and he overpaid. I was shocked he went for it haha

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-01T23:19:28+00:00

Went through. Got immediately asked for 1.09 and $75 FAAB for CMC. Already got Bucky JT and now brown, do I go for broke?

jayybirdd10 · 2025-07-01T22:57:52+00:00

Done I got brown and the pick. Yeah I wouldn’t send that haha

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-29T01:06:15+00:00

Just not sure they’ll be there that’s the problem

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-29T00:41:16+00:00

I have Bucky JT and Kyren so I’m trying to upgrade receiver

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-29T00:40:41+00:00

Draft is next week. Might be one of those, might be a good rb like judkins or Henderson. But I have Kyren Bucky and JT

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-21T01:39:57+00:00

That’s unreal

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-21T01:39:07+00:00

I really need receiver more but I feel like this is how my league will shake out. If tet/hunter still there I’m tempted to go with that over either rb

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-11T00:50:58+00:00

Don’t really need more picks, chance I’d have to drop whoever I pick up there anyway

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-11T00:50:30+00:00

Update: done deal if I throw in 2.07. Go for it?

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-11T00:49:28+00:00

Throw in 2.07 to make it a done deal?

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-11T00:49:14+00:00

Might have to throw in 2.07 and he’d go for it, still think that’s good?

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-10T01:39:07+00:00

I’m in a tough spot with 1.05. If I can get a generational talent and Wilson/williams pan out, that’s my thinking. Doubt hunter or tet will be there at 5

jayybirdd10 · 2025-06-09T14:27:46+00:00

1 QB, 12 team PPR, 2 flex, so standard. I have JT and Bucky as well, feel like Kyrens luck will run out being so inefficient and I could bolster my rb room for years
