Every player's value comes from VORP — the same scarcity-aware engine behind Football Machine and Keeper Edge — so every trade is judged by the same standard as the rest of the site.

Trades don't always add up the way the raw numbers suggest. The calculator looks past simple value totals, rewarding the side that lands a true difference-maker with a value boost — and keeping deals honest with a value discount when one side is padded out with extra depth instead of real impact.

The bar shows each side's share of the value on the table. Even This Up suggests a player the trailing side could ask for to close the gap.

PPG and wins/season (under View Details) give you the real-world payoff — actual points and wins this trade is worth over a season, straight from on-field production.
