Ben Baldwin’s non-quarterback draft worth chart makes an attempt to put a quantity on what every choose within the draft is value. If we function conservatively and assume that the Packers will ship the twenty fourth choose within the 2026 and 2027 drafts to the Cowboys, with none future draft reductions, that’s an extra $18.2 million per 12 months in alternative prices that the Packers are assuming by making this commerce. You possibly can quibble with the determine, after all, however one factor I can say for positive is that valuing the picks as being value $0 is unsuitable.
It’s a must to embody the worth of what it took to accumulate Parsons as a part of these numbers. And with the price of these picks added on prime of his deal, Parsons will price the Packers greater than $65 million per season over the following 4 years. The four-time Professional Bowler will make extra, a minimum of implicitly, than another participant within the sport — his previous teammate Prescott included — and twice as a lot as Bosa, who was the highest-paid edge rusher within the NFL a number of months in the past.
