Bengals/Chargers (Approved 3-2)

[Bengals GM (Darryl)]

Chargers will give;
Charcandrick West (RB-KC) $650,000 (2016) RFA

Bengals will give:
Andy Dalton (CIN) $ 1,891,000 (2015)


Bengals accept with this post. Makes sense after obtaining Charles, who may (hopefully) or maynot bounce back from his latest injury. One thing is apparent. The rebuild for this organisation isn't working too well, especially after trying to become somewhat competitive ahead of time. Good luck too Ethan and his Chargers.

Proposed on MFL.

I accept. Since I do not have Charles, I could be looking at a useless asset a season from now if he's healthy. Dalton is significantly better from a fantasy perpective and I will hope to leverage that into something for my future. Good dealing with Darryl.

Also, Dalton is immediately OTB along with Romo.

[Bills GM (Greg)]

This seems way too light for a Top 5 QB on a low cost contract. I know Dalton is at the end of his contract and would have to be franchised next year at a ridiculous price, but he's worth a lot more than a back-up RB. While West is the initial replacement for Charles, there is no indication that he has a long-term hold on the position. I respect that this trade reflects the desires of two seasoned owners to re-build, but I have to veto this one.

I have to agree with Bills, I don't see how a back up RB (Yes he's starting for the last 5 games of our season probably) but once Charles is back he's a handcuff. I think Dalton could pull in way more.

Considering Dalton is on a one year deal, and will be expensive to retain after this year, I'm fine with this. I definitely prefer the Dalton side, but nothing too insane that's worth a veto IMO, considering its veteran owners who have both been here a while and know what they're doing, and I trust that they both have plans.

I had to really think on this cause at first glance it seems like one of this year's top players is being given away. As I thought more, fronting the cost for Dalton when there's already money invested at the position and only one qb starts doesn't add up. Getting a rb who'll start for the rest of this season and back up your other back coming off his second season ending knee injury, makes sense. West also has rfa status... I had to talk myself into it but two owners who know what they're doing, each gets what they want, Chargers might be getting an absolute steal but I'm not going to stand in the way. Approve (2-2).

[Patriots GM (Daniel)]

Horrific value for Dalton but with him being a 1yr guy and no guarantees he will fetch two 1sts in TT
