A middle of round 2 pick would value at about 415 points, but the difference between the two trades is about 265 points. That indicates a premium for Houston of about 150 points which is about 36%.
I just chose that particular trade because it was very recent. What trades do you consider to be much different in compensation premiums? Let's keep them within the last 5-10 years.

I see how you are doing your math but it's not a convenient way to convey it.
If the 2025 pick is worth 265 points in the trade, then that is about 55% of their current round 2 pick value. That's precisely why I said approximately 50% of the current pick and that's normally how it's stated.
It varies in a range of 35% to 60% of the current year's pick with fair regularity. Those fluctuate based on the model. The Hill model is usually a better representation of trade values too.
