I took a bit of flac for drafting back-to-back QB's with my 1st and 2nd picks.....but it WAS Rodgers and Vick I thought I had what I wanted(trade vick for Greg Jennings and a few other studs)but the guy backed out before it went final.
Well,I just traded Vick,Ahmad Bradshaw,TE Gronkowski and Brandon Lloyd.............................for Kevin Kolb-Vincent Jackson-Antonio Gates and Eddie Royal.
New Team-QB's Aaron Rodgers/Kevin Kolb.......RB's McFadden/Benson/Michael Bush/Thomas Jones......WR's Vincent Jackson/Brandon Marshall/Kenny Britt/Hines Ward/Deon Branch/Donald Driver and Royal......TE's Jermaine Gresham andAntonio Gates................DEF's Redskins/Dolphins.....K Nick Folk
Barring a major injury.....I'm VERY confident I did the right thing-especially looking at the BEAST I just assembledGOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE TODAY!!!!!!!

By the way-----I already know I gave up a BUNCH.....but I really only wanted Gates and Jackson....and Kolbs a decent Backup..........plus-even WITH the players I just sent him-the"other guy's" team isn't a threat-so the lineup will be

Your thread title made it seem like you had some wow factor but it doesnt. My 12 man league team has a WR (Fitzgerald) better than ur top and 2 RB's (Rice and Forte) better than ur top and my QB (Stafford) will get close to Rodgers this year. And I am that confident with my team. PLus you just traded for a wr and TE on the same team. Not a fan of that at all.
Sorry buddy but you hav no team to brag about.
Just being honest.

I mean, I know you basically got backed into a corner by your friend flaking on you, but that's pretty much robbery. I got Kolb in like the 9th round.
So.... you traded:
the #1 fantasy player overall last year,
the #1 producing TE in the league over the past 2 weeks (that will only get more with Hernandez injury)
the #1 WR in catches and yards I believe last year
and a solid #2 RB or at worst high end flex option
for a backup quarterback you will only use once this year, a tight end just off the PUP list, a competing WR on the same team as your tight end, and arguably someone who belongs on the waiver wire.
I'm not trying to be a complete asshole here, but that is probably the worst trade I have read so far this season. I understand you may have had no choice with your friend faking, but you coulda pieced out your team and gotten so much more.
