I wasn't involved and cannot directly verify, but the guy is a good friend and I trust him. He was offered the opportunity to:


Give Jonathan Taylor
Get Benny Snell Jr.

...and he's a Badger fan.

I get: M Thomas 5yr deal
Give: Julio jones 1 yr deal and 2 firsts, (1 early mid, 1 late)

Owners have the right to match high bid and retain their players.
Please explain why this is a bad offer
Because I'm a building team. Could be pick 1 and 12 plus Julio (who I could match, or they could match) for Thomas. Why would u send 2 1sts for a player who averaged 3 points per game higher last yr.

I mean saying you can match Julio as an FA means nothing. He's an FA anyone can match any bid by just bidding higher. It's two firsts for 3 more ppg on a guy five years younger with a contract four years longer.

No, I don't have to bid, I have the right to match the highest bid from the other teams

I'm sorry but I still don't see how this is a benefit. Im in leagues with a similar function to this and it doesn't change anyone's values on players when they have that option as the contract is still determined by the process of FA, you just simply have the ability to "bid" whatever the highest bid is.

EX I think Julio is worth 20, market decides 10. I can match 10 v bidding 10.5 and winning anyway. Or I think julio is worth 10 market decides 20, I'm not matching anyway.

I dont understand how you can't see the hype on Taylor. His athleticism is off the charts. He is a big back. He had the college production to go with the athleticism. He is running behind a top offensive line. His qb loves to dump the ball to his running backs. If you don't see it then you must not have done any research on him.

By don't see the hype I mean I don't already have him as an early 2nd or first round startup pick. Not saying I don't think he'll be good or would love to have him, but just lower on him than consensus.

To each their own. I don't think it belongs in this thread but I like both Slayton and Diontae more than any one piece on the other side

I offered a 3rd for Logan Thomas. He countered asking for a 1st

12 team ppr starting 1 RB with an RB/TE flex. Had the opportunity to trade away Barkley. In return, I would have received Bryan Edwards, Gurley, a 2021 2nd and 4th. I declined.

What was most galling was there was no attempt to make it even somewhat appealing by including one of his 3 1sts or putting a 3rd instead of the 4th.
