Was this an insulting offer?

This is the place for team advice - should I make this trade, should I draft that player, etc.

Was this an insulting offer?

Postby Prison_Mike » Tue Nov 05, 2019 12:12 pm

(Team 3 in signature) - 10tm | PPR| 1QB

A leaguemate only has 1 QB on his roster (Watson, who's about to be on bye) and is fighting for a playoff spot

I offered him the following trade:

Goff + Drake
for
Guice

He countered with:
2020 1st (currently 1.01) for Guice

He was trolling, because he immediately took to the group chat and said: "send me an offer when you're serious"

Was this really that far off?

No, not insulting, but I can understand turning it down. His response definitely wasn't warranted.

Sure, I don't blame him for turning it down. His players: his choice/price
But calling me out in the group chat when I made a reasonable offer for a guy who is certainly talented, but carries a lot of risk? C'mon

Haha, not insulting at all . . . but you have to understand that anyone who has held Guice this long likely values him at near-Saquon levels given all the hype, disappointment, hype, disappointment, etc. OK, not really near Saquon but I've found most Guice owners are currently holding him with a vice-grip (while praying desperately).

I however am a non-Guice believer (due to knee, not ability) and would have kindly accepted your offer. :lol:

Didn't he counter with giving Guice and getting a 2020 pick which is now 1.01?

Goff and drake isn’t great but it is not insulting

The 1.1 for Guice is ludicrous at this point I’d be happy if someone even offered me a late 1st.

OP is trying to buy Guice, the owner of Guice wants the 1.1 from the OP

Correct, I own the 1.01
He countered by offering me Guice for the 1.01, but was trolling because my offer was apparently so insulting

I apologize, read that wrong. I thought he was willing to give up the 1.01 for Guice.

Yep, I'm learning that this is the case with most owners. This isn't the first time it's happened with this owner either
Earlier in the season I sent him:

Parris Campbell + Royce + an early 2020 2nd for Guice (which was arguably an overpay)
He countered with (x2) 2020 1sts for Guice

Overvalue your players all you want, but don't call guys out in the group chat unless someone is frequently sending you TERRIBLE offers lol
