The lions would be idiots to extend a contract with either player and Decker is still on his rookie deal for 2 more years if the lions pick up his option. As if the Broncos would want Decker anyway, he’s not a quality starter. Not to mention Harris is old, even if JE thought it was worth it the Lions would be trading someone on a rookie deal for an old corner and would HAVE to get THEIR GUY on the o-line, relying on a rookie right tackle and leaving the hole at RG. Peterson trade is basically taking an old corner as your first round pick making team older in the process. Neither of these deals are feasible.
This is click bait, if you see this don’t bother reading this garbage article

The deal for Harris makes no sense. Denver used a first round pick on Bolles in 2017 and Bolles graded higher than Taylor Decker did last year. Denver just spent huge free agent cash on Juwaan James to play RT and he also grades higher than Decker. Denver is not in the market for a tackle. They have two starters that are better than Decker already and Bolles is still young, improving and playing on his rookie contract, so he is cheap. Denver is not even remotely going to consider this offer. Denver does not want to trade up. There is no player they are chasing, and two spots does nothing. Denver would rather trade down and add picks. Denver gets literally nothing out of this deal. They would be more likely to release Harris and save the cap space - but that will not happen. Seriously makes zero sense. Honestly, I could see Denver and AZ swapping Harris for Peterson and sending AZ some picks for Rosen in the deal. That scenario makes more sense than these.

I like both but I think u can get Peterson cheaper cause he wants out and it will be a distraction for a new head coach
