If that's the case I still don't set a deadline as you suggest, but I lower my price when circling back to teams.
If the market hasn't changed why give yourself an artificial deadline and hurt your return?
They're also assessing the value of the player now vs September vs December vs the deadline.
To suggest they're not acting on what they think is the best course is silly in my mind.
I think fans that want action concoct false deadlines to get things moving and more to talk about.

Is it silly? Is a late 1st worth so much more than a 2nd? I have 15 years of data that says that it's about 1-2% better and about 5% chance you get someone that is an impact player vs 3%. I think it is silly to hold out for an extra 1-2%.
