“I’ve listened to a TON of pods, most of which I have stopped, and this one has remained at the top of my playlist. Heath has some awesome perspectives that I haven’t heard elsewhere. Absolutely a must tune pod!
My question is more philosophical but I think it applies to lots of people trying to rebuild. Value is determined by the league you are in and you really don’t have any value until you’ve actually sold. I picked up an orphan that didn’t have many pieces to move. Top pieces were Kelce, McLaurin, Lockett, and Deebo. I’m trying to balance age and risk with value and trying to move these pieces. I fielded tons of offers and counters for Kelce and every single one was a ridiculous low-ball offer, which tells me the league isn’t willing to pay my value. And starting a rebuild I cannot afford to have Kelce die on my roster or get injured.
That being said, I sold pretty low on Kelce and McLaurin, moving them in a package for a Jalin Hyatt, a 24 1st and 2nd, and a 25 2nd. Now I’ve seen McLaurin get injured, although doesn’t sound too bad.
How do you handle these situations? Do you do what I did and sell low to get anything while you can? Do you worry about injury possibilities? Do you hold and demand more value for them, disregarding their age and injury history? Appreciate any insight.”
