Honestly, I think that's the wrong way to look at it.

New England traded a 4th to Chicago for Martellus Bennett and a 6th in 2016 and he had 55 catches for 700 yards and 7 TDs because Gronk happened to get hurt that year. Bennett was every bit as productive in Chicago as Rudolph in Minnesota, so flipping a 5th for him or something is hardly not worth it.

I suggested, basically, trading a 2nd for Trae Waynes at CB and trying to get Rudolph as part of the package. That would help the Vikings cap situation immensely and give KC 2 huge pieces they need.
