Zeke for Barkely proposal

Postby TroyH » Fri Jul 06, 2018 8:09 am

For team in sig. The 1.01 owner has approached me multiple times about Zeke and OBJ. Below are the only notable players on his team:

Newton, Mariota, Hunt, CMC, MT, AJ Green, Diggs, KB, and OJ Howard

I was thinking of proposing:

Send: OBJ and Zeke
Receive: MT, Green, Hunt, and 1.01

To be upfront I do not want to trade OBJ or Zeke and am happy with my team. He has asked multiple times so I was thinking of sending him an offer that was so ridiculous that he would either stop asking me about them or accept a drastic overpay. Would this be a high enough overpayment for you guys, or should I add more? He is adamant about getting Zeke and OBJ so if I send him an offer (no matter how ridiculous) I have to assume he might actually accept it, which is why I am coming to you guys for advice.

This guy keeps telling me he wants a player but never makes an offer, and he reminds me almost everyday about his interest too. Does anyone have a good way of handling someone like this?

Doubt that gets accepted, but go for it.

You're asking way too much, of course. I doubt it gets accepted, but like the others said, go for it. I would want a huge overpay for those guys as well

lots of owners want the best players, most wont pay the price though.

by simply telling us that he has yet to offer anything, tells me that you arent likely to get a deal done. likely just looking to buy for pennies if you will let him. id let him know that your taking offers for obj and ee, but you arent sending them (assuming that you dont want to move them). your obviously asking for a haul and rightfully so imo since they are inquiring but cant even send an offer.

i would do that deal if he wants it....but again....its a huge overpay imo and he likely laughs it off and you receive some ridiculous counter. owners like this can be a pain in arse....set the price and walk away. if he wants either player, they can come back to you with something realistic.

i'll add here also, sometimes....we just dont want to trade our players. you have every right to hold tight to obj and ee if you want.

either thomas or hunt needs to be removed from the side you'd be getting to have a chance of getting accepted
