The Detroit Lions and the New England Patriots have agreed on a trade:
Lions send:
DE Zachary Carter (CIN) $850,000 (2024) RFA
S Eric Murray (HOU). $4,200,000 (2022)
2023 Round 1st (DET)
Patriots send:
WR Donovan Peoples-Jones (CLE) $2,000,000 (2022) RFA
DE Brandon Graham (PHI) $6,000,000 (2022)
The Lions are a couple of pieces short of making a deep run this year. This solves two of those issues. Peoples-Jones is a quality young WR with a great future and an RFA designation. He will be a quality addition to the Lions WR Corps for years to come. Graham still puts up the points at DE and is a one year rental. The Pats get a quality rookie DE in Carter and a 1st Rounder. Murray was added to balance the cap. Thanks Bushma for the easy deal.
