What has been the most unrealistic trades you have seen

[Sprewell1508]

Because I want to start a franchise but I don't want to keep starting over because of trades.

Usually the trades arent too bad. The players that they trade are pretty equal, mostly just stupid though. Like Miami usually always trades or puts Jason Taylor on the trading block which is soemthing you wouldnt see happen in the NFL, but they do get equal or close to equally rated players in return. The WORST trade ive ever seen was Jphn Lynch (96 overall) for Mike Minter (80 overall) straight up.

Rating wise, yes thats horrible. But as for real life ... I would take Minter.

Mike Vick for Trevor Price was soooo stupid (IMO) that I restarted my 'chise...

I don't see why you guys would restart a season because of a trade that the AI made amongst itself. But, to each his own. It's your ~$50

If you are going to argue that it ruins the game and that those players would never be traded, then the first year of Free Agency will screw up your franchises too. So just play season play.

I have seen many un-balanced trades. I let them go. I figure I am the GM of my team, and I can't control what the GM's of other teams do, so if they decide to make some bone-headed trade, so be it.

In Free Agency, I have seen stars like Jevon Kearse sit there for an entire season because he is asking for too much money and nobody can afford to pay him what he is asking. Or, if they can, they won't and obviously don't need him.

Was Vick the starting QB or 3rd string QB. I have downloaded some rosters where Vick is the 3rd string QB because of his injury. The AI sees an overpaid 3rd string QB so they trade him. Most unrealistic trades seem to be of high paid players. I think the AI is trying to make cap room.

This might not be the place for this, (forgive me if it's not ) but I guarantee you that this will happen in real life. From what I hear, here in Nashville, Jevon is asking to be the top paid DE in the league......That's not gonna happen.
