Initially you could brush off 23-24 as just "one bad season"
Now his 24-25 season is trending even worse...
The lack of big RH centers around the league will prop his value up for sure. But I still think the value he's probably being offered by most teams is some like 1st round pick + prospect. If teams were offering drastically more than that he'd be moved already I think.
I'd be shocked if Andersson + Pospisil + pick isn't the best deal they've been offered by far...but Andersson just didn't want to waive.
What other teams are probably looking for a center like Cozens...Nashville, Montreal, Utah, Chicago, Boston, Minnesota, Detroit, Calgary.
So there is a market but I bet it's largely based on futures with any of those teams.

I don't disagree, but Frost was traded for peanuts. Cozens isn't quite there yet. I'd still consider Frost and Cozens as two different classes of assets. Give Cozens two more years with .5 PPG play and they'd be at the same level.
I agree that Andersson + Pospisil + pick is a great package for Cozens. If that pick is more than a 3rd, it starts to look like an overpayment pretty quickly.
