The NFL trade deadline is right around the corner on Nov. 4.\u00a0We know that the Detroit Lions are already making calls looking for an edge rusher.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, we will be taking a look at each edge rusher that could be available for trade, and we\u2019ll put together a proposal and go over what the cost of each deal could be and what the Lions could get from each player. So far,\u00a0we\u2019ve covered Titans edge rusher Arden Key.<\/p>\n

Lions trade proposal for Miami Dolphins edge rusher Jaelan Phillips<\/h2>\n

\"Dolphins<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with the why and the fit. It\u2019s really simple for that. This is the best edge rusher available for trade right now without a doubt. The former 18th overall pick is just 26 years old, and there is still a lot of upside for him as a starter opposite Aidan Hutchinson. This is the Lions\u2019 chance to grab a guy they can look to re-sign and that can grow with the team over time. They\u2019re not getting that elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Yes, Phillips has some injury history, and I know that turns Lions fans off, but he is not Marcus Davenport. These were freak injuries that were somewhat related to each other. They actually do the Lions a favor in the re-signing process, too, because that drives his value down.<\/p>\n

They could get away with something like a four-year deal worth up to $80 million, where there\u2019s a lot of injury incentives and protections for the Lions laid out in the deal. They could also backload it because of that, and that allows them to still get other big deals done. Let\u2019s get to the trade proposal.<\/p>\n

Lions get:<\/strong>\u00a0Jaelan Phillips
\nDolphins get:<\/strong>\u00a02026 4th round pick<\/p>\n

The Lions are going to have to give a high day three pick to get it done, but what they get back is a player who has racked up 22 pressures this season and is just begging to take advantage of the one-on-one opportunities that Aidan Hutchinson and Alim McNeill provide. In my opinion, this is the deal the Lions should do at the deadline because there\u2019s a chance for a future here, and it doesn\u2019t cost a first-round pick, and you don\u2019t have to break the bank.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
