I just ignore these. I mean to say that when I have a deal in place, ready to go, I will then do the deep dive as to why the AI team might make this deal. When I cant find a good reason for what I consider a "big deal", involving established players I will occasionally do a back up, do the deal and then advance a day or two. Most times a decent/acceptable reason can appear.

I once had a team in the division trade me their # 2 SP, mid season, and they were contending. I would not have made the deal in reverse and I couldnt find a reason they would. So, i did the above and the next day they used the $$ saved to sign their # 1 draft pick (around $7M/it was cash they didn't have otherwise). I let it stand. so, you never know.
