Managers have been paying more than this

In 7 Redraft half trades since September where he went alone, what they gave for him came to about 1.59× his value here (the middle half of them 1.14× to 2.33×). The market prices Josh higher than Swindlr does.

What managers actually gave for Josh in completed trades in public Sleeper leagues, leagues like Redraft half first. Each shows the date and the league's settings; the price is what was agreed then, and the line under it is today's value, a different thing. Two-team trades of up to four pieces a side; none is left out for disagreeing with Swindlr. No league or manager names. 5 of them look lopsided at today's values (values move after a trade, with injuries and role changes, so a fair price then can look lopsided now); none is left out.
