Decision rule

Price the current market difference first; use personal conviction only after the calculator shows what the name premium costs.

Not at the baseline price. Patrick Mahomes holds the larger current value, so a straight swap gives up a 26.9% 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.
