What trades did you think were unfair but ended up being pretty fair in hindsight?

Fred Jackson + Reggie Bush for Giovani Bernard. Initial reaction from the rest of the league? Complete and total Herscheling. But it was week 4, he had Lynch on bye and Foster potentially injured; he needed a pair of starting RBs.
Fast forward to two weeks later, and Action Jackson's the #9 ranked RB in PPR. Sure, Gio's #5, but it's not an awful deal.

I've got Le'Veon Bell as my RB1. I'm not worried about losing Reggie.

Bell and fjax is a nice combo

At the beginning of the season, I offered a guy in our league who ended up being WR starved early on Alshon Jeffery for Adrian Peterson. He didn't bite.
He's still hurting for WRs to this day...I guess that trade never ended up "fair" but didn't play out the way anyone had expected.

Dodged a bullet there.

Pre-season trade: Jamaal Charles and Roddy White for Dez Bryant and Andre Ellington.
I got the Charles/White side of the deal and was super pleased... until Charles has missed mots of the season, and White's been dinged up and ineffective.
Probably ends up a lot more fair than I was expecting it to be, heh, or even in other dude's favor.

I traded Asiata for Watkins before Week 6. It was definitely in his favor to begin but it wasn't after he completed the trade and Asiata became the 2nd RB to MIN. Completely fair Nobody knew about how they were going to play MIN's RBs.
