sorry to MK
when i voiced my opionion about the watson deal from the former gm that was denied

when a trade is processed or approved you cannot change your mind after cause of a better deal came along you you just don't like it

so since its already approved i say let it be

Thats a COMPLETELY different situation, that GM agreed to a bad trade, all the ratings were correct it was just an unfair trade. In this trade a players OVERALL was incorrect and it led to the Falcons getting screwed pretty badly.

Well, on one had, Yes, Falcons got screwed over by 4 OVR, my point is this: we made the trade before Groves' rating was revealed (84) and his contract length (5 year). Now, I would be possibly willing to renegotiate this slightly, seeing how Bruce went down 4 OVR, what I suggested was removing Floyd 77 WR. Now, once Sox gets on and tells us what happened, we can figure out what to do next. I am currently negotiating with the falcons for another trade, so it is likely that maybe we can rework this one into that one as well. However, my point is this: No matter what we do, I think that I should still end up with Groves. Whether it be drop Floyd for a 6th round pick, or me add something extra, or combine this deal with another, I could possibly be willing to do it. While I understand it is not fair for the Falcons, you must see this through my point of view as well: I trade for a player I have no idea what his rating or contract is, in hopes of benefiting. We post the trade, Sox himself voted on it I believe, and the TC approved. If Sox screwed up, why should the entire trade be scratched, especially now that Groves' rating and contract is shown?

Hey Ruskie, stop trying to blame me so you can get your trade. I just told Falcons that he was a 83, cuz I saw it in my game.

We are going to re-vote, but I am curious. How the hell could this be my mistake? Because I MIGHT have missed a progression (which is very unlikely).

And by the way, there might be offseason progressions.

I'd also like to another trade in our history. I made a trade with the Giants in which I believed Sean Locklear to be an 85 OT, when in fact he was only an 83. I gave Brandon Marshall and Jeff King (a 77 TE) for Locklear and a 5th, believing that Locklear was an 85. However, when I went to the game he was only an 83. Many members agreed that if he was an 83, the trade should not have been approved. But it was approved, and processed, and we moved on.

These things happen, and I now realize that all of you might doubt the ratings in your depth chart. I'd like to say about 97% of them are accurate, so you don't have much to worry about.

In any case, I will be posting teams' depth charts up soon.

Will you be posting those Depth charts today?

Before UFA starts.

This trade was denied on a revote.
