Decision rule

Start with Christian McCaffrey's edge.

Use redraft and the actual reception setting together, then discount the offer only as much as the published dynasty market already supports.

Not at the baseline price. Christian McCaffrey holds the larger current value, so a straight swap gives up a 12.3% market edge before roster fit is considered. Recent usage and listed availability provide context, but starting-lineup need and manager-specific preference remain outside the model.
