Who Wins This Hypothetical Trade?

After working the numbers, essentially you are getting 2 years of Gilmore at 23m for the value of the 14th pick in the draft. That seems like a pretty strong value for the Lions.

That assumes the contract is just a straight trade and I just put NE at 23 next year. That could change and give the Lions more value.

I'm not a huge fan of trading picks for players but this is a great deal for the Lions imo.


NE
#3 (2020) - 2200

DET
#23 (2020) - 760
#23 (2021) ~ 350 (devalued a round)
Gilmore ~ 1090 (equivalent to about the 14th pick)
