Its possible Joe D. would have made more of an effort to keep Big Ben if Nazr was not available at the time, but he didn't make the effort because he didn't think that Ben was worth the $5 million plus more a year than it would take to sign Nazr.
So that is like a trade, or more precisely an "opportunity cost trade off"
