Need some advice. I'm sure this probably happens all the time, but some guys in my league are giving me crap for a trade.

During the draft I got the following
QB: Brady & Eli Manning
WR: Welker (I know, I know), Cruz, Nicks & Kenny Stills
TE: Witten and Charles Clay
RB: Foster, Jamaal Charles, Chris Johnson and Blount
DEF: San Fran & Buffalo
K: Gostkowski

Anyway, I thought I was really lacking in the WR spot. I saw that one other team drafted Cam Newton and Webb....the back-up to Cam Newtons back-up. Bad call on his part, but it looked like he was doing some damage control after the draft. I figured it was a long shot trade, but I sent the offer anyways. I offered Eli Manning for Antonio Brown. He's a Giants fan and it was worth offering. I thought he'd counter, but he took the trade straight up. Maybe it was just to mess with me, but he knew what he was doing and even says he has faith in Eli. Trade went through pending any veto's. No veto's and it was finalized a few days ago.

Here's where it gets messy. Yesterday, certain people started complaining to the commissioner that it was an unfair trade...that my team is stacked now. Some are even threatening to leave if there isn't a revote...which is BS. I moved maybe one spot up and I'm rank sixth overall in the projections. I guess my question is, how is any of this even an issue? They're not screaming re-draft because some people had less than ideal picks. Heck, I wouldn't mind a re-draft now knowing Welker is out for at least four games. ...but that wouldn't be fair. I just don't think all this anger is justified and I don't want them using this an excuse if I beat them. There's absolutely no collusion going on and now some people want a revote!? Because some weren't paying attention? wtf? I thought the purpose of the veto was to stop collusion between two players, not to prevent other teams from being too strong to protect your own interest. The draft results have some teams stacked to begin with, which makes all this all the more absurd.

What do you guys think? Am I wrong for not backing down on this? I wasn't taking advantage of anyone and he accepted the trade on purpose.
