Every year, FF players get more crazy

I'm in a league where I know no one. I've been negotiating with this guy for days now on a deal for Trent Richardson.

Richardson is his 4th RB. He has MJD, CJ2k, Doug Martin and T-Rich.

His WRs are Steve Johnson and Amendola.

I offered him DeMariyus Thomas, Martellus Bennett for Ryan Williams and T-Rich. Counters with Philip Rivers, Williams, MaGahee, Amendola for Cam Newton, DeMariyus, Martellus Bennett and Isaac Redman.

I tell him to pound sand.

Then I sent him an offer of Demariyus and Bennett for Williams and Richardson. No dice. Counters with Andre Johnson/Bennett for Amendola and T-Richardson.

That's lunacy. I personally think Thomas has a huge year and he should be enough for Richardson at this stage of the game. Richardson could have a good year, but there's tons of questions right now surrounding him.

To think I'd trade a PPR machine like Andre Johnson is nuts for a back who's not even on his radar. I politely in an email told him not happening, so of course he says he has other offers, which I know is shit to get me to panic.

I can understand the art of negotiation, but if I was in that position, I'd take Thomas when my WRs look like that.

How is it in your leagues? Are owners just out of their minds this year or am I being crazy?
