But it DOES take into account player position and contract value, as well as 2nd contract value⦠Itās puts a MUCH higher value on later round picks.
So guess what, look at who the Lions got and look who the Cardinals got then tell me who won that trade.
Lions by far. So the F&S model was actually correct
The best trade chart is the ones NFL teams use. Iām fairly sure nobody in the league uses a chart made by the OTC guys, firstly because very few trades balance out using their chart which suggests it isnāt being used, and secondly because some of their analytics are wild (they have Shedeur Sanders as the second most valuable QB in the league https://overthecap.com/valuation) so anyone should be wary of using any of their analytics tools.
OK I will use this one then, sounds fair
Rams #13 - 276.8
Lions #17, #118, #128 - 254+82.6+76.2 = 412.8
Lions would be crazy to do that, again terrible trade value
BTW the 412.8 is 149% over the 276.8
The OTC has 1700 to 2687, which is 158%
Pretty damn close to the same delta % wise
I read that article and he is using statistical date to come up with his values
The JJ chart were just arbitrary numbers , he even states that in the article āThese values are completely arbitrary: there is no statistical evidence to back up the relative values of these draft picks.ā
