FFPC SuperFlex not involved (although I was haggling with one of them all day)
Team A gave Tua, D Jones, Akers, Lamb, 2023 2nd x3 (don't ask me if they're early/late)
Team B got Herbert, Amon-Ra, 2023 3rd

Sounds like Team A fell for the old "If it's heads, I win; if it's tails, you lose" trick.
In all seriousness, I have never played Superflex or FFPC, so it's hard for me to gauge. But it feels like a lot to give up to get Herbert.
Herbert, Mahomes and Josh Allen are the top 3 assets in SuperFlex and regularly go 1, 2, 3 in startups. It's a big get for sure. On paper those three are each worth more than say Chase, Jefferson, Taylor, etc.
I think the reasoning is solid in that Akers might be another achilles victim, D Jones might be a bust, Tua is a question mark, Lamb is a big piece and then three 2nds is the cost of doing business.
On the other side Herbert *is* bonafide without question marks and many of use are really big on Amon-Ra. I think he and Herbert are the two best players in the deal and they saved 2 roster spots on the eve of cutdowns.
I was offering Waddle, Toney and Zamir White for Tua, Akers and Burks, and I think they were about to take it but I would have absolutely taken the Herbert deal as well.
