I think this trade also stresses the benefit of talking to other GMs about deals before the trade is finalized. When I joined there were 3-4 GMs that I consistently asked for advice to determine value of players, picks, and contacts.

I will echo JonDuke in that we have all made trades that you look back on and regret, however most of those trades were made with little or no consultation with other GMs before pulling the trigger.

This league is like no other fantasy league I’ve been involved with previously. For all the good elements and some bad. But one of the best things is the willingness of GMs to provide help or advice to others. Whether it is a newb GM or a veteran GM, better to ask for info than make a deal that sets your team back years. Just ask Scorp. Or probably better if you don’t ask Scorp.
