Bloodsuckers and Floyds swing a deal

[Burt the Butcher]

Insects give Brian Westbrook
Floyds give Deshaun Foster, Darnell Dockett, London Fletcher and Bryan Scott.

Scott and Foster get 2 year deals, Fletch and Dockett one each.

[Flaxwless]

Agreed.

Assign Westbrook a 1 year deal.

Frank, I think you got an UNBELIEVABLE deal to unload a grossly overpaid Westy, and to a division rival no less. Well done!

Burt, I'm disappointed in you! ;)

You didn't even unload garbage like Julian Peterson. Fletcher is overpaid, but big whoop. You gave Frank 4 decent players AND saved him 500 in cap space on a guy he HAD NO TAKERS FOR! It was totally a buyers market and.... ah, I'll :stfu

But seriously, I take it the main reason you all feel I got took was because I had to upper hand because the Insects HAD to do something, so I should have tried to take advantage of him, and gotten more. Well, when I make a trade, I try to not only get what I want/need, but also offer a deal that would help the other team. I didn't give Frank the deal he wanted, he pretty much took the deal I offered, with some tweaking to his liking, but I still did not include the players he really wanted. And another thing is I am happy with the deal, and that matters more than what anyone else thinks. Through my neglect of checking schedules, I had 3 of 4 LB's off the same week, and 3 of 4 RB's off the same week. So I NEEDED to do something. Granted WB is overpaid, but I really don't like Foster (ask Sally), and was glad to get someone more reliable. Foster has not played a full season in 5 years, and chances are he won't this year. So there you have it, in a nut shell. We'll see at end of year whether I made a good move or not.

:GoodPost , though admitting to being :Owned woulda been more fun! :rockon

I think it's a fair deal. Like Burt said most felt like I HAD to trade Westy but I was content with having all 3 RBs. I had enough to fill the minimum number of players. In the case that I did keep all three I would've had no problems fielding a crappy team... recieving a high 1st rounder... tagging all three of thems as RFAs and getting pick/picks in return.

Now that I unloaded some space I can actually focus on winning this year with a fairly solid team.
