What they cost today

Everything above is priced on the day each deal happened, which is the only honest way to grade a completed trade. It is not what they cost now. Today CeeDee Lamb prices at 9,034 and Saquon Barkley at 3,304, so the market currently rates CeeDee Lamb about 2.7x the other. A pair can lean one way across its history and price the opposite way now; that gap is the whole reason to check the deal in front of you rather than the deal someone made in 2023.

Read each row as: CeeDee Lamb, plus anything in the third column, was traded for Saquon Barkley plus anything in the fourth. An em dash means that side sent nobody else. Margin is the value gap at that day’s prices from the side that received CeeDee Lamb; positive means that side came out ahead.

The whole-deal margin

Why this beats a calculator on this exact question

A calculator answers “is CeeDee Lamb for Saquon Barkley fair” by subtracting one number from another, and it gives every manager in your league the same answer. That tells you nothing about whether the trade closes. What closes it is whether one side has to attach a piece, and which side that usually is. The 22 deals above are the record of what leagues actually agreed to when these two were on the table together.
