The 3rd pick last year was probably either Stewart or Mendanhall (I have both of them is different dynasty leagues...both are RBBCs as well) Also, for every chance you take on a rather unknown RB in a good situation like Matt Forte...there is a Brandon Jackson.

That makes it even worse.... at least before you could claim ignorance, now you're just an

J/K by the way
I hear ya. If you think Barber will be a perennial Top 10 back for the next 4/5 years than it's a fair deal. He's young enough to still be a long term value and his under-performance thus far would mean a lower salary in the future.
I just happen to think Barber will be in an RBBC and would rather keep the 3rd and take my chances on one of the rookie RBs. We value Barber differently and that's how it is in fantasy football. If everyone valued each player the same no trades could get done.
So now we'll just wait and see who's right... and I'm willing to wager I'll be. ;)
Just pissed that I was never contacted for a possible deal. Next time let me know if you have a deal brewing, I'm always willing to make a deal and I could either bring you a better deal or force the other guy to give you a better deal. In the end, I get to feel special and that's what it's really all about.
Glad to have you on board.
