Ownership across leagues does not tell us whether he is free in yours. A big game can create demand without creating a lasting job. Compare expected opportunities, the weeks you need covered and the value of the player you would drop.
What would justify paying more?
Pay more when his playing time and target involvement persist and you need a starting receiver.
When should you bid less—or walk away?
Reduce the bid if you already have stronger starters or the receiver rotation remains unstable. An unused bench upgrade is worth less than a player who actually changes your starting lineup.
Win the right claim.
Use these ranges as a planning aid. Your league’s bidding habits, roster size, remaining budget, scoring and alternatives can change the sensible price.
