What would it take?

A fair package each interested team would have to send for Natasha Cloud — assembled and priced by the same engine that grades trades, most valuable pieces first until the outgoing value matches hers. The percentage is what that package is worth on the trade-value scale: 100% is an even match for Natasha Cloud, above 100% a slight overpay to get there. Open one in the machine to tweak it.

A starting point, not a prediction — each package is the fewest fair pieces by model value, and a real deal would flex around roster fit and both front offices. “Needs a filler” means the salaries don't yet fit under the cap without another piece.
