Is this absurd?

[zarathustra]

Was offered gus, Ingram, boyd, deebo for saquon

I laughed and said it would take Hopkins, bell, and a first.

Answer: that's absurd, good luck.

[bjd5211]

The offer you received was far more absurd

[TimeWillTell]

Yeah his offer was awful. Since you own him you can basically set the price at whatever you want. I'd say absurd is not accurate, but maybe a little heavy, but honestly that's probably about what it'd take to get Barkley away from me.

[FiremanEd]

His offer was awful. Yours is heavy, as Hopkins/Bell is likely in the range, but no worse than his was.

[Gator Sens]

Awful offer from him.

[LMS123]

yours was heavy yes, but the other owners offer was terrible. If they're going to get insulted from your offer and think theirs is fair then the owner is clueless. Some people are jus impossible to trade with because they value their players 10x higher than they should and devalue others players 10x less

[tom14cat14]

Awful for him and bad from you. Nuk is very close to Barkely so the 2020 1st would be as much as you could hope for. But his was very bad. Yours was the correct response in that situation.

[bjd5211]

An offer for Barkley needs to be heavy, I'm not moving him for "equal value", I'm better off just keeping him in that case. You want Barkley off me you need to force me to change my mind. I would even reject the Hopkins/Bell/1 offer because I just don't trust Bell enough going forward.

This. See Hopkins = Barkley

[ninotoreS]

Your counter-offer was bad. Their offer was comedy.

I agree with BJD. I believe workhorse RBs are a dime a dozen and should be worth gold. Yes, Hopkins is close in value where your counter seems “heavy”, as others have said. I don’t agree. Gase has already said it was a waste of money spent on Bell. I believe we are going to witness a weekly feud between Bell and Gase this season because of his lack of usage. Bell is one player I want nothing to do with. You want Barkley, you better come swinging. If he really wanted a fair deal he would have responded to your offer with a counter by adding something to your side to balance things out. He clearly was looking for a heavy win on his side.

[smbkrypt24]

I think your counter was fine. Like others have said I wouldn't part with Barkley unless it was an overpay. The counter you sent would be something I would consider.

[ninotoreS]

Hopkins and Bell would already be overpay. Hopkins, Bell, and a 1st thrown in is overpay plus.

So the guy puts out an outrageous and absurd offer and then gets insulted when you counter. Another example of a clueless dynasty owner
