It will obviously be a worse deal as the EU's aim is to attract member states not make it better for them to leave. And many of the trade deals the EU has signed with third countries have revision clauses in them meaning that those deals can be revised in the third country's favour if the EU signs a more favourable deal with another third country eg the UK.
