    Stop trying to make it sound like you just gave away the 6th pick. You packaged it with another pick to move up. Do you think you would have been able to do the same trade without the extra pick? :rolleyes:

    The funniest part is, had that guy not picked Rudy T, EVERYBODY would be angry about how one team has 9 guys and demand that he drop a player for Arjun to pick up. Smh.

    I wouldn't. I thought he was stupid for taking Rudy and tried to get that extra pick from him.

    Yeah, I tried getting both extra picks that were available (RowdyRicky and RocketsRed (I think)).

    I'm putting Delfino on your roster when I make the polls, but it's going to be subject to VBG's approval. And I disagree with it.

    But it's ultimately not my call.

    Why do I doubt that you would have been okay with a team having 9 players?

    Regardless, forefiting his 9th pick was the right thing to do just like letting Arjun take somebody place of the forefitted pick is the right thing to do.

    Think of it as Arjun getting that 8th rounder and it being skipped and him making his pick now.



    I don't get why you want to screw this guy over.

    If I was aware we could have picked up undrafted players at the end of the draft I would have traded my 2 and 3rd for a first, or my 3rd and 5th for an extra 2nd.

    By now its pretty easy to understand, if you have two really good players on your team, there's almost a guarantee you'll be voted the winner. Even if the other 3 positions are well below the other teams, you'll still be voted just by name recognition.

    I think it's unfair. That's all. I'm not trying to screw him over. I just think he made his bed, and he should sleep in it. Whatever, I'm putting Delfino on his roster.

    I just think VBG made it pretty clear what his intentions were when he said, "I'd prefer if trades were 1-for-1, but you can go top-heavy if you want" (or something like that), and then specifically stated that FA pick ups had to be 1-for-1. Again, I'm leaving it up for him to decide.
