I doubt any team thinks they are a Ras away from winning everything, but they might think they are a RD upgrade away and have a list of guys they would like, Ras being one of them.
This situation won’t resolve CC’s way. He’ll end up taking something similar to what was already offered, and we’ll hear about it through the media grapevine.
Can’t blame CC for trying. He has to maximize the return. I just don’t think Ras is a hot commodity.

Exactly. Nobody has a RD available now...why Ras value is higher now
It's hard to predict who will be having a poor season, but at least 8 teams will. Who those 8 teams are will determine who is available. Also, if this draft is considered very strong with a potential generational talent at the top...we could see 10 maybe 12 teams selling at the deadline and no teams wanting to trade their 1sts. Similar to 2023 draft.
Also, if there is a bunch of top LD available at the deadline that are better than Ras, teams aren't going to go for just Ras simply because he is RD. They will add the best players they can get.
