If the wheel on the BOB trailer was the same as the wheels on the bike then it probably wouldn't make much difference and the rolling resistance is proportional to the load carried by the tire.

But a BOB trailer has a 16" wheel with a fat tire which will have higher rolling resistance that won't be offset by the lowered resistance of the bike tires. I would guess the difference would be less than 10W.
