Atlanta acquired offensive tackle Wanya Morris and a 2027 seventh round pick from Kansas City for a 2027 sixth round pick. The Falcons get a young, experienced tackle with real NFL starting experience while only sliding down one late-round tier in a future draft. Kansas City clears a depth-chart piece and improves its 2027 draft slot, but Atlanta receives the more useful football asset.

Philadelphia acquired a 2027 5th round pick and a 2028 1st round pick from New England Patriots for A.J. Brown.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Myles Garrett from Cleveland Browns for Jared Verse, a 2027 1st round pick, a 2028 2nd round pick and a 2029 3rd round pick. This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Seattle acquired Irvin Charles from New York Jets on 2026-05-27, sending 2028 conditional 7th round pick in return. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired Irvin Charles and gave up 2028 conditional 7th round pick, with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Atlanta acquired 2026 4th round pick (134th overall, Kendal Daniels); 2026 6th round pick (208th overall, Anterio Thompson) from Las Vegas Raiders for 2026 4th round pick (122nd overall, Mike Washington)

Buffalo acquired 2026 4th round pick (102nd overall, Jude Bowry) and a 2027 7th round pick from Las Vegas Raiders for 2026 4th round pick (101st overall, Jermod McCoy). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Buffalo acquired 2026 7th round pick (239th overall, Tommy Doman) and 2026 7th round pick (241st overall, Ar'maj Reed-Adams) from Chicago Bears for 2026 6th round pick (213th overall, Jordan van den Berg). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Carolina moved up five spots in the fourth round and added a fifth by trading a fifth to Chicago. A cost-effective move-up with extra capital retained

Cincinnati acquired 2026 4th round pick (128th overall, Connor Lew) and 2026 4th round pick (140th overall, Colbie Young) from New York Jets for 2026 4th round pick (110th overall, Cade Klubnik) and 2026 6th round pick (199th overall subsequently traded, Emmanuel Henderson). A future draft-pick reshuffle with no realized NFL outcomes yet

Denver acquired 2026 5th round pick (152nd overall, Justin Joly) from Cleveland Browns for 2026 5th round pick (170th overall, Joe Royer) and 2026 6th round pick (182nd overall, Taylen Green). This was a modest Day 3 move-up, with the grade held near neutral until the players' NFL roles become clearer.

Jacksonville moved up five spots in the fourth round and added a sixth-rounder from Carolina. The Jaguars improved position for Wesley Williams while keeping an extra late pick in the exchange. It is a small board-management win, not a major swing

Jacksonville moved from picks 196 and 245 to pick 191 with New England. This was a minor late-round consolidation to secure Josh Cameron. The cost was small, and the outcome should be treated as neutral until the player result is known

The Chargers acquired 2026 4th round pick (117th overall, Travis Burke) from Houston Texans for 2026 4th round pick (123rd overall, Wade Woodaz) and 2026 6th round pick (204th overall, Lewis Bond). The trade was not a franchise-shifter, but the player-value exchange supports a modest directional verdict.

Minnesota acquired 2026 6th round pick (198th overall, Demond Claiborne) from New England Patriots for 2026 7th round pick (234th overall, Behren Morton) and a 2027 6th round pick. The value curve favors Minnesota. The Vikings received the stronger overall return after weighing player value, draft capital, roster impact, and what each side gave up.

New Orleans acquired Tyree Wilson and 2026 7th round pick (219th overall, TJ Hall) from Las Vegas Raiders / Oakland Raiders for 2026 5th round pick (150th overall, Dalton Johnson). New Orleans received Tyree Wilson and 2026 7th round pick (219th overall, TJ Hall) and sent 2026 5th round pick (150th overall, Dalton Johnson). The standard profile, available production record, and low confidence level supports a conservative grade

Pittsburgh acquired 2026 5th round pick (169th overall, Riley Nowakowski) and 2026 6th round pick (210th overall, Gabriel Rubio) from Kansas City Chiefs for 2026 5th round pick (161st overall, Emmett Johnson) and 2026 7th round pick (249th overall, Garrett Nussmeier). This 2026 transaction with Kansas City Chiefs registered as a roughly balanced exchange. Both clubs addressed their stated roster or draft-board priorities without a clear winner emerging from the historical record. The assets involved were comparable in tier and subsequent career value

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2026 6th round pick (197th overall, CJ Daniels) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2026 6th round pick (207th overall, Micah Morris), 2026 7th round pick (251st overall, Uar Bernard) and 2026 7th round pick (252nd overall, Keyshawn James-Newby). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Seattle acquired 2026 5th round pick (148th overall, Beau Stephens) from Cleveland Browns on 2026-04-25, sending a 2027 4th round pick in return. The value case for Seattle comes down to the direct asset exchange: 2026 5th round pick (148th overall, Beau Stephens) for a 2027 4th round pick. There is no clear evidence of a major downstream swing, so the grade stays modest rather than inflated. For TradeVerdicts, this row matters because it preserves the transaction trail without overstating the long-term Seahawks impact.

Seattle acquired later 2026 sixth- and seventh-round selections from the Jets for an earlier sixth-round pick. The move exchanged pick positioning for quantity, but it is too recent for a true hindsight winner. Even Trade is the safest treatment.

Seattle acquired 2026 7th round pick (236th overall, Andre Fuller); 2026 7th round pick (255th overall, Michael Dansby) from Green Bay Packers on 2026-04-25, sending 2026 6th round pick (216th overall, Trey Smack) in return. From a hindsight view, the Seahawks neither created a defining win nor suffered a major loss here. The important public-facing detail is the actual exchange — 2026 7th round pick (236th overall, Andre Fuller); 2026 7th round pick (255th overall, Michael Dansby) for 2026 6th round pick (216th overall, Trey Smack) — rather than a forced storyline. That makes the row useful for database completeness while keeping it below the major-trade tier.

San Francisco came out slightly behind in a close exchange, with 2026 4th round pick (133rd overall, Matthew Hibner) carrying a bit more value than 2026 5th round pick (154th overall, Jaden Dugger) and a 2027 6th round pick

Tampa Bay acquired 2026 6th round pick (185th overall; Bauer Sharp) The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Chicago acquired 2026 3rd round pick (69th overall, Sam Roush) and 2026 5th round pick (144th overall subsequently traded, Sam Hecht) from Tennessee Titans for 2026 2nd round pick (60th overall, Anthony Hill). Both sides received roughly equivalent value when weighing production and cost.

Cleveland acquired 2026 4th round pick (105th overall subsequently traded, Brenen Thompson), 2026 5th round pick (145th overall subsequently traded, Nick Barrett) and a 2027 4th round pick from New York Giants for 2026 3rd round pick (74th overall, Malachi Fields). Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

Denver traded down with Buffalo from the second round into the early third, adding a sixth-round pick while selecting defensive tackle Tyler Onyedim. The Broncos chose volume and board management over staying at No. 62. This kind of trade is hard to grade immediately because its value depends heavily on Onyedim’s development and how the sixth-round pick is ultimately used. The process was reasonable if Denver viewed the talent gap as modest

Houston acquired 2026 2nd round pick (36th overall, Kayden McDonald).

The Chargers acquired 2026 2nd round pick (63rd overall, Jake Slaughter), 2026 4th round pick (131st overall, Genesis Smith) and 2026 6th round pick (202nd overall, Logan Taylor) from New England Patriots for 2026 2nd round pick (55th overall, Gabe Jacas). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. The Chargers addressed a roster or draft-board preference, while New England Patriots received comparable value in return.

The Chargers acquired 2026 4th round pick (105th overall, Brenen Thompson), 2026 5th round pick (145th overall, Nick Barrett) and 2026 6th round pick (206th overall, Alex Harkey) from Cleveland Browns for 2026 3rd round pick (86th overall, Austin Barber). The trade was not a franchise-shifter, but the player-value exchange supports a modest directional verdict.

Minnesota moved down two spots in the second round while adding fifth-round value. The Vikings gained the cleaner draft-capital side of the exchange.

Minnesota moved Jonathan Greenard and a seventh-round pick for a third-rounder and a future third. The draft return was real, but Philadelphia received the proven impact player.

The Jets acquired 2026 second- and fourth-round selections from Detroit for an earlier 2026 second-round pick. Because this is a recent or future-facing draft-value exchange, there is not enough NFL outcome data for a firm winner. Even Trade is the safest public verdict.

Pittsburgh acquired 2026 second- and seventh-round value from Indianapolis for a later package of 2026 picks. The trade is too recent for real hindsight, and the value appears balanced from the current record. Even Trade is the cleanest verdict.

Seattle acquired 2026 3rd round pick (99th overall, Julian Neal); 2026 6th round pick (216th overall subsequently traded, Trey Smack) from Pittsburgh Steelers on 2026-04-24, sending 2026 3rd round pick (96th overall, Gennings Dunker) in return. Seattle's side of this 2026 draft-capital exchange was straightforward: the Seahawks received 2026 3rd round pick (99th overall, Julian Neal); 2026 6th round pick (216th overall subsequently traded, Trey Smack) and surrendered 2026 3rd round pick (96th overall, Gennings Dunker). The grade reflects the known return, while Pittsburgh Steelers's grade accounts for the countervalue. The trade belongs as a minor database entry because its documented impact was real but not franchise-shaping.

The exchange of 2026 5th round pick (152nd overall subsequently traded, Justin Joly) for Dee Winters stayed close enough in realized value to remain a true even verdict

San Francisco came out slightly behind in a close exchange, with 2026 2nd round pick (58th overall, Emmanuel McNeil-Warren) and 2026 5th round pick (152nd overall subsequently t. carrying a bit more value than 2026 3rd round pick (70th overall, Romello Height) and 2026 4th round pick (107th overall, Gracen Halton)

Tampa Bay acquired 2026 3rd round pick (84th overall; Ted Hurst); 20 Tampa Bay Buccaneers gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Buffalo acquired 2026 1st round pick (28th overall subsequently traded, Caleb Lomu), 2026 3rd round pick (69th overall subsequently traded, Sam Roush) and 2026 5th round pick (167th overall, Jalon Kilgore) from Kansas City Chiefs for 2026 1st round pick (26th overall, Keylan Rutledge) and 2026 3rd round pick (91st overall subsequently traded, Trey Zuhn). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Buffalo acquired 2026 1st round pick (31st overall subsequently traded, Keldric Faulk) and 2026 4th round pick (125th overall, Skyler Bell) from New England Patriots for 2026 1st round pick (28th overall, Caleb Lomu). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Buffalo acquired 2026 2nd round pick (35th overall, T.J. Parker), 2026 3rd round pick (66th overall subsequently traded, Tyler Onyedim) and 2026 4th round pick (101st overall subsequently traded, Jermod McCoy) from New York Jets for 2026 1st round pick (31st overall, Keldric Faulk), 2026 3rd round pick (69th overall subsequently traded, Sam Roush) and 2026 5th round pick (165th overall, Nicholas Singleton). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Dallas acquired 2026 1st round pick (11th overall, Caleb Downs) from Miami Dolphins for 2026 1st round pick (12th overall, Kadyn Proctor), 2026 5th round pick (177th overall, Kevin Coleman) and 2026 5th round pick (180th overall, Seydou Traore). Dallas receives a slight edge because the Cowboys gained the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

Houston acquired 2026 1st round pick (26th overall, Keylan Rutledge).

Kansas City acquired 2026 1st round pick (6th overall, Mansoor Delane) from Cleveland Browns for 2026 1st round pick (9th overall, Spencer Fano), 2026 3rd round pick (74th overall subsequently traded, Malachi Fields) and 2026 5th round pick (148th overall subsequently traded, Beau Stephens). Kansas City paid two extra picks to climb three spots for Mansoor Delane, a targeted premium-position move. The value depends heavily on Delane’s development, so an even provisional grade is safer than calling it a win now

Philadelphia acquired 2026 1st round pick (20th overall, Makai Lemon) and a 2027 7th round pick from Dallas Cowboys for 2026 1st round pick (23rd overall, Malachi Lawrence), 2026 4th round pick (114th overall, Devin Moore) and 2026 4th round pick (137th overall, LT Overton).

San Francisco moved slightly down in the 2026 first round with Miami and added third-round value. The Dolphins received the higher first-round slot, but the 49ers gained the better overall asset spread. San Francisco gets a provisional edge.

The exchange of 2026 2nd round pick (33rd overall, De'Zhaun Stribling) and 2026 5th round pick (179th overall, Enrique Cruz) for 2026 1st round pick (30th overall, Omar Cooper) stayed close enough in realized value to remain a true even verdict

Cincinnati acquired Dexter Lawrence from New York Giants for 2026 1st round pick (10th overall, Francis Mauigoa). Acquiring an elite interior defender for one first-round pick is strong on paper, but the final verdict is provisional

Philadelphia acquired Dontayvion Wicks from Green Bay Packers for a 2027 6th round pick and 2026 5th round pick (153rd overall, Jager Burton).

New England acquired a 2027 6th round pick from Houston Texans for Marte Mapu and a 2027 7th round pick. Even; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

Atlanta acquired Sydney Brown, 2026 4th round pick (122nd overall subsequently traded, Mike Washington); 2026 6th round pick (215th overall, Harold Perkins) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2026 6th round pick (197th overall subsequently traded, CJ Daniels); 2026 4th round pick (114th overall subsequently traded, Devin Moore). Atlanta reshuffled Day 3 value and added Sydney Brown in a 2026 pick/player exchange still too recent for a firm winner

Carolina moved on from Andy Dalton, recouping a seventh-round pick in a routine bridge-quarterback transaction as the team transitioned to its 2026 roster configuration

Denver acquired Jaylen Waddle and a 2026 fourth-round pick from Miami for a first-round pick, a third-round pick, and a fourth-round pick, giving Sean Payton’s offense a proven wide receiver at a premium price. This is a major modern roster bet, not a neutral pick shuffle. Denver paid first-round-level capital for a known explosive receiver while also receiving a fourth-rounder back. The Broncos grade is cautiously positive because Waddle fit an immediate offensive need and arrived with prime years left, but the price keeps the deal from grading higher until the on-field return is known. Miami’s grade is strong because it converted a veteran wideout into premium draft flexibility

Kansas City acquired Justin Fields from New York Jets for a 2027 6th round pick. The Chiefs used a late future pick to secure a high-upside backup and contingency quarterback in Justin Fields. For a team built around Patrick Mahomes, the value comes from insurance, practice utility, and optionality rather than a projected starting role

Pittsburgh acquired Michael Pittman Jr. and a 2026 seventh-round pick from Indianapolis for a 2026 sixth-round pick. This is a clear talent-for-pick exchange in Pittsburgh's favor on paper: the Steelers turned a sixth-rounder into a starting-caliber veteran receiver and a seventh-rounder. The hold status remains appropriate until the contract value, player performance, and downstream draft outcomes are fully known

Dallas acquired 2026 7th round pick (218th overall, Anthony Smith) from Tennessee Titans for Solomon Thomas and 2026 7th round pick (225th overall, Jaren Kanak). Tennessee Titans receives a slight edge because Dallas gave up the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

San Francisco came out slightly behind in a close exchange, with 2026 3rd round pick (92nd overall, Jaishawn Barham) carrying a bit more value than Osa Odighizuwa

New Orleans acquired a 2028 6th round pick from Houston Texans for Kai Kroeger and a 2028 7th round pick. New Orleans received a 2028 6th round pick and sent Kai Kroeger and a 2028 7th round pick. The standard profile, available production record, and low confidence level supports a conservative grade

New York Jets acquired Geno Smith and 2026 7th round pick (228th overall, VJ Payne) from Las Vegas Raiders for 2026 6th round pick (208th overall subsequently traded, Anterio Thompson). clear hindsight edge for the Jets; the return materially outperformed the assets surrendered.

Dallas acquired Rashan Gary from Green Bay Packers for a 2027 4th round pick. The deal grades toward Dallas because the incoming side carried stronger durable value, better draft conversion, or more meaningful roster impact than the outgoing package.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2026 6th round pick (214th overall, Caden Curry) from Pittsburgh Steelers for Michael Pittman and 2026 7th round pick (230th overall, Eli Heidenreich). Pittsburgh Steelers gets the edge because the Colts surrendered the stronger long-term asset or received limited return. Outcome remains early; the row is public-visible but should be revisited after additional seasons.

New York Jets acquired Minkah Fitzpatrick from Miami Dolphins for 2026 7th round pick (238th overall, Max Llewellyn). major hindsight edge for the Jets based on star-level return, premium draft value, or sharply better realized asset value.

Buffalo acquired 2026 6th round pick (182nd overall subsequently traded, Taylen Green) from Las Vegas Raiders for Taron Johnson and 2026 7th round pick (228th overall subsequently traded, VJ Payne). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Chicago acquired Garrett Bradbury from New England Patriots for a 2027 5th round pick. Both sides received roughly equivalent value when weighing production and cost.

Buffalo acquired D.J. Moore and 2026 5th round pick (165th overall subsequently traded, Nicholas Singleton) from Chicago Bears for 2026 2nd round pick (60th overall subsequently traded, Anthony Hill). Buffalo added a proven receiver in D.J. Moore while receiving a fifth-rounder back, making the headline value attractive. Because this is a 2026 move, it should stay provisional until the production and pick outcomes settle

Kansas City acquired 2026 1st round pick (29th overall, Peter Woods), 2026 5th round pick (169th overall subsequently traded, Riley Nowakowski), 2026 6th round pick (210th overall subsequently traded, Gabriel Rubio) and a 2027 3rd round pick from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for Trent McDuffie. Kansas City converted Trent McDuffie into a first-round pick, two additional 2026 picks, and a future third, a massive haul for a premium defender. Because the trade is future-facing, the grade should remain provisional until Peter Woods and the later assets develop

Cleveland acquired Tytus Howard from Houston Texans for 2026 5th round pick (141st overall, Kamari Ramsey). Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

Detroit acquired Juice Scruggs, 2026 4th round pick (128th overall subsequently traded, Connor Lew) and a 2027 7th round pick from Houston Texans for David Montgomery. Houston acquired the proven back; Detroit received useful pieces but took on more projection risk.

New York acquired 2026 3rd round pick (74th overall, Malachi Fields) from Cleveland Browns for 2026 4th round pick (105th overall subsequently traded, Brenen Thompson), 2026 5th round pick (145th overall subsequently traded, Nick Barrett) and a 2027 4th round pick.

New York sent All-Pro DT Dexter Lawrence to Cincinnati for 2026 #10 (Francis Mauigoa). Lawrence was a 27-year-old foundational defender, while a single mid-first, even for a top tackle prospect, rarely returns equivalent impact.

Cincinnati moved Logan Wilson to Dallas for late-round draft value. The Bengals may have had contract and fit reasons, but Dallas received the clearer football asset. The Cowboys get a provisional edge.

Cleveland acquired 2026 6th round pick (206th overall subsequently traded, Alex Harkey) from Chicago Bears for Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and 2026 7th round pick (239th overall subsequently traded, Tommy Doman). Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

Dallas acquired Quinnen Williams from New York Jets for Mazi Smith, 2026 2nd round pick (44th overall subsequently traded, Derrick Moore) and a 2027 1st round pick. The deal strongly favors New York Jets because Dallas surrendered far more durable value than it received.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired Sauce Gardner from New York Jets for Adonai Mitchell, 2026 1st round pick (16th overall, Kenyon Sadiq) and a 2027 1st round pick. Hindsight favors the Colts side the edge because the incoming value produced more lasting franchise value than the package surrendered. The grade is still scaled to the trade tier so minor cash or depth moves do not receive exaggerated treatment. Outcome remains early; the row is public-visible but should be revisited after additional seasons.

Jacksonville acquired Jakobi Meyers from Las Vegas for future fourth- and sixth-round picks. Meyers is a proven receiver, but the price is real for a veteran target. The move makes sense if Jacksonville needed immediate reliability, though the draft cost keeps it from becoming a bargain

The Chargers acquired Trevor Penning from New Orleans Saints for a 2027 6th round pick. The trade grades in the Chargers' favor because the incoming side carried stronger long-term value, better draft leverage, or more useful roster impact than the outgoing package.

Seattle paid mid-round picks for speed and return value, but the final verdict depends on Shaheed’s health and role. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired Rashid Shaheed and gave up 2026 4th round pick (132nd overall, Jeremiah Wright); 2026 5th round pick (172nd overall, Lorenzo Styles), with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Baltimore received Dre'Mont Jones; sent 2026 5th round pick (142nd overall, Fernando Carmona) (would have converted to 4th round if Jones recorded 2 sacks and Ravens made playoffs).

Philadelphia acquired Jaelan Phillips from Miami Dolphins for 2026 3rd round pick (87th overall, Will Kacmarek).

Philadelphia acquired Jaire Alexander and a 2027 7th round pick from Baltimore Ravens for 2026 6th round pick (211th overall, Ryan Eckley).

Philadelphia acquired Michael Carter and a 2027 7th round pick from New York Jets for a 2027 6th round pick and John Metchie.

Pittsburgh acquired Kyle Dugger and 2026 7th round pick (224th overall, Robert Spears-Jennings) from New England/Boston Patriots for 2026 6th round pick (202nd overall subsequently traded, Logan Taylor). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while New England/Boston Patriots received comparable value in return.

San Francisco acquired Keion White and a non-conveyed conditional pick from New England for a 2026 sixth-round pick. White gave the 49ers the clearer football asset, making this a San Francisco win.

The Rams acquired Roger McCreary and a 2026 sixth-round pick from Tennessee for a 2026 fifth-round pick. Hindsight leans toward Tennessee because the outgoing Rams value or the partner return proved stronger than what Los Angeles kept.

Jacksonville swapped Tyson Campbell and a future seventh for Greg Newsome and a future sixth. This is a notable cornerback reset rather than a simple salary dump. Newsome gives Jacksonville a comparable starting-caliber option, while Cleveland gets the higher-upside long-term corner if Campbell rebounds

Cleveland acquired 2026 5th round pick (149th overall, Justin Jefferson) from Bengals for Joe Flacco and 2026 6th round pick (199th overall subsequently traded, Emmanuel Henderson). Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

The Chargers acquired a 2027 7th round pick and Odafe Oweh from Baltimore Ravens for Alohi Gilman and 2026 5th round pick (162nd overall, Chandler Rivers). The trade grades in the Chargers' favor because the incoming side carried stronger long-term value, better draft leverage, or more useful roster impact than the outgoing package.

Cleveland acquired Cam Robinson and a 2027 7th round pick from Houston Texans for a 2027 6th round pick. Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

Jets acquired Jarvis Brownlee and 2026 7th round pick (238th overall subsequently traded, Max Llewellyn) from Tennessee Titans for 2026 6th round pick (194th overall, Pat Coogan).

New Orleans acquired Ja'Lynn Polk and a 2028 7th round pick from New England Patriots for a 2027 6th round pick. New Orleans received Ja'Lynn Polk and a 2028 7th round pick and sent a 2027 6th round pick. The standard profile, available production record, and low confidence level supports a conservative grade

Jacksonville traded Tank Bigsby to Philadelphia for future fifth- and sixth-round picks. That is a strong return for a running back with a crowded role and uneven early production. The value leans toward Jacksonville unless Bigsby becomes a clear rotational weapon in Philadelphia

Dallas acquired Kenny Clark, 2026 1st round pick (20th overall subsequently traded, Makai Lemon) and a 2027 1st round pick from Green Bay Packers for Micah Parsons. The deal strongly favors Green Bay Packers because Dallas surrendered far more durable value than it received.

Jacksonville acquired Tim Patrick from Detroit for a 2026 6th-round pick. Patrick gave Jacksonville veteran receiver depth, but sending a sixth for an aging receiver profile keeps the grade modest. The move is more situational patch than long-term value

Minnesota brought Adam Thielen back but paid meaningful future draft value to do it. The emotional fit made sense, but Carolina extracted the better asset return.

The Chargers acquired Austin Deculus from Houston Texans for a conditional 2027 pick (7th round). The record is incomplete, but the identifiable assets create a slight directional lean rather than a true dead-even verdict.

New Orleans acquired Asim Richards and a 2028 7th round pick from Dallas Cowboys for a 2028 6th round pick. New Orleans received Asim Richards and a 2028 7th round pick and sent a 2028 6th round pick. The standard profile, available production record, and low confidence level supports a conservative grade

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired a 2028 7th round pick from Cleveland Browns for KT Leveston. Hindsight leans toward Cleveland Browns because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Seattle acquired a conditional 2027 pick (7th round) from Atlanta Falcons on 2025-08-26, sending Michael Jerrell in return. From a hindsight view, the Seahawks neither created a defining win nor suffered a major loss here. The important public-facing detail is the actual exchange — a conditional 2027 pick (7th round) for Michael Jerrell — rather than a forced storyline. That makes the row useful for database completeness while keeping it below the major-trade tier.

Cleveland acquired 2026 5th round pick (141st overall subsequently traded, Kamari Ramsey) from Las Vegas/Oakland Raiders for Kenny Pickett. Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

Minnesota moved Mekhi Blackmon for a 2026 sixth-round pick. Blackmon still carried young cornerback value, making the return too light for the Vikings.

Jacksonville traded Fred Johnson to Philadelphia for a 2026 7th-round pick. The Jaguars converted a depth offensive lineman into late draft capital. It is a small win if Johnson was outside their plans, though the return is naturally limited

Minnesota moved Sam Howell and a 2026 sixth for a 2026 fifth and a future seventh. The Vikings improved their draft position, while Philadelphia added quarterback depth, leaving the value close.

Jets acquired a conditional 2027 pick (6th round) from Kansas City Chiefs for Derrick Nnadi and a conditional 2027 pick (7th round). Depth move with limited long-term impact; historical production on both sides was marginal, supporting an even grade.

Philadelphia acquired a 2027 6th round pick from Green Bay Packers for Darian Kinnard.

San Francisco created clear positive trade value by turning 2026 6th round pick (209th overall, Matt Gulbin) into Brian Robinson. The outcome favors the 49ers

Cleveland acquired 2026 6th round pick (182nd overall, Taylen Green) from New York Jets for Jowon Briggs and 2026 7th round pick (242nd overall subsequently traded, Deven Eastern). Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

Denver traded wide receiver Devaughn Vele to New Orleans for a 2026 fourth-round pick and a 2027 seventh-round pick, turning a young depth receiver into future draft capital. This was a value-driven move. Denver converted a non-core receiver into a future fourth-rounder, which is meaningful compensation for a player who had not become a central offensive piece. New Orleans paid for immediate receiving depth, while Denver prioritized roster flexibility and future pick value

Kansas City acquired a 2027 6th round pick from San Francisco 49ers for Skyy. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Minnesota moved Harrison Phillips and a future seventh for late-round draft return. Given Phillips’ proven defensive value, the Jets received the stronger side of the exchange.

Philadelphia acquired John Metchie and 2026 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, CJ Williams) from Houston Texans for 2026 5th round pick (167th overall subsequently traded, Jalon Kilgore) and Harrison Bryant.

New York acquired 2026 6th round pick (192nd overall, J.C. Davis) from Miami Dolphins for Darren Waller and a conditional 2027 pick (7th round). The standard designation reflects the available asset quality, career impact, and certainty of the historical record. Status:.

Pittsburgh traded Minkah Fitzpatrick to Miami along with a seventh-round pick, receiving Jalen Ramsey, Jonnu Smith, and a seventh in return. Fitzpatrick had requested a release; Ramsey is a former All-Pro cornerback. Pittsburgh restructured an exit situation into useful contributors. Ramsey, though past his peak, brought legitimate press-man experience, and Jonnu Smith provides a receiving tight end option. Miami absorbed Fitzpatrick's contract while Pittsburgh refreshed two roster spots. Given that Fitzpatrick was essentially a departing asset, extracting two contributors plus picks is an above-average outcome. Slight upgrade from "Miami Dolphins Lean" to slight Pittsburgh edge

This archival trade record has been withheld from normal public verdict handling because the source data appears incomplete, fused, voided, conditional, or team-contaminated.

Pittsburgh moved George Pickens and a 2027 sixth-round pick to Dallas for a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round pick. Pittsburgh sold a talented but volatile receiver for solid draft value while modestly improving a future Day 3 pick. Dallas took on the upside and the behavioral/contract risk. The verdict remains a Pittsburgh lean, but the row should stay provisional until the picks and Pickens's Dallas tenure are easier to evaluate

Arizona acquired 2025 5th round pick (174th overall, Denzel Burke) and 2025 6th round pick (211th overall, Hayden Conner) from Dallas Cowboys for 2025 5th round pick (152nd overall, Shemar James). Cardinals Win. Arizona converted 2025 5th round pick (152nd overall, Shemar James) into useful contributors while the return to Dallas Cowboys was minimal

Baltimore received 2025 5th round pick (141st overall, Carson Vinson) and 2025 6th round pick (178th overall, Bilhal Kone); sent 2025 4th round pick (136th overall, Elic Ayomanor) and 2025 6th round pick (183rd overall, Marcus Harris).

Buffalo acquired 2025 4th round pick (109th overall, Deone Walker) from Chicago Bears for 2025 4th round pick (132nd overall, Ruben Hyppolite) and 2025 5th round pick (169th overall, Zah Frazier). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Denver acquired 2025 6th round pick (216th overall, Jeremy Crawshaw) and 2025 7th round pick (241st overall, Caleb Lohner) from Houston Texans for 2025 6th round pick (197th overall, Graham Mertz). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Detroit acquired 2025 5th round pick (171st overall, Miles Frazier) from New England Patriots for 2025 6th round pick (182nd overall, Andres Borregales) and 2025 7th round pick (228th overall subsequently traded, Brashard Smith). Strict hindsight favors Detroit. The Lions' incoming side carried meaningfully stronger realized value than the assets sent to New England Patriots, either through premium player production, better draft conversion, or a cleaner long-term roster outcome.

Houston acquired 2025 4th round pick (116th overall, Woody Marks) an.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired Undisclosed / not specified in raw record from unidentified partner for 2025 4th round pick (117th overall, Jarquez Hunter), 2025 4th round pick (127th overall subsequently traded, Jalen Travis) and 2025 6th round pick (190th overall subsequently traded, Tim Smith) to Rams for. Strict hindsight does not create a decisive winner. The exchange reads as a balanced roster, draft-position, cash, or administrative move, with neither side receiving clearly superior long-term value. Outcome remains early; the row is public-visible but should be revisited after additional seasons.

Kansas City acquired 2025 7th round pick (228th overall, Brashard Smith) from. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

The Chargers acquired 2025 5th round pick (165th overall, Oronde Gadsden) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2025 6th round pick (181st overall, Kyle McCord) and 2025 6th round pick (209th overall, Antwaun Powell-Ryland). The trade grades in the Chargers' favor because the incoming side carried stronger long-term value, better draft leverage, or more useful roster impact than the outgoing package.

Minnesota acquired Sam Howell and a 2025 fifth-round pick while sending Seattle a higher fifth-rounder. The Vikings gained quarterback depth and preserved useful draft value.

Minnesota acquired 2025 6th round pick (201st overall, Kobe King) and 2025 6th round pick (202nd overall, Gavin Bartholomew) from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for 2025 5th round pick (172nd overall, Chris Paul). The deal grades as balanced. Neither side clearly separated after weighing player value, draft capital, roster impact, and what each team gave up.

New York Jets acquired 2025 5th round pick (176th overall, Tyler Baron) and 2026 6th round pick (194th overall subsequently traded, Pat Coogan) from Baltimore Ravens for 2026 5th round pick (142nd overall subsequently traded, Fernando Carmona) and 2025 6th round pick (186th overall, Tyler Loop). Jets-positive hindsight result; the acquired value beat the outgoing package without reaching franchise-changing territory.

Philadelphia acquired 2025 5th round pick (145th overall, Mac McWilliams) and 2025 6th round pick (207th overall, Cameron Williams) from New York Jets for 2025 4th round pick (130th overall, Malachi Moore).

Pittsburgh acquired 2025 5th round pick (164th overall, Yahya Black) and 2025 7th round pick (226th overall, Carson Bruener) from Kansas City Chiefs for 2025 5th round pick (156th overall, Jeffrey Bassa). The trade grades against Pittsburgh because the outgoing side carried more durable value, stronger draft upside, or a better long-term return for Kansas City Chiefs.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2025 5th round pick (148th overall, Ty Hamilton) from Chicago Bears for 2025 6th round pick (195th overall, Luke Newman) and 2026 4th round pick (129th overall subsequently traded, Will Lee). Hindsight leans toward Chicago Bears because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Seattle acquired 2025 5th round pick (144th overall subsequently traded, Shedeur Sanders); 2025 7th round pick (238th overall, Ricky White) from New England Patriots on 2025-04-26, sending 2025 4th round pick (137th overall, Joshua Farmer) in return. Seattle's side of this 2025 draft-capital exchange was straightforward: the Seahawks received 2025 5th round pick (144th overall subsequently traded, Shedeur Sanders); 2025 7th round pick (238th overall, Ricky White) and surrendered 2025 4th round pick (137th overall, Joshua Farmer). The grade reflects the known return, while New England Patriots's grade accounts for the countervalue. The trade belongs as a minor database entry because its documented impact was real but not franchise-shaping.

Seattle acquired 2025 5th round pick (166th overall, Tory Horton); 2025 6th round pick (192nd overall, Bryce Cabeldue) from Cleveland Browns on 2025-04-26, sending 2025 5th round pick (144th overall, Shedeur Sanders) in return. This transaction fits Seattle's broader roster-building record for 2025: targeted asset movement, limited known aftershocks, and no obvious franchise-altering result. The Seahawks' grade is tied to receiving 2025 5th round pick (166th overall, Tory Horton); 2025 6th round pick (192nd overall, Bryce Cabeldue) while parting with 2025 5th round pick (144th overall, Shedeur Sanders). Cleveland Browns's side is graded C because the exchange appears roughly balanced from the available record.

Atlanta acquired 2025 3rd round pick (96th overall, Xavier Watts) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2025 3rd round pick (101st overall subsequently traded, Sai'vion Jones); 2026 5th round pick (153rd overall subsequently traded, Jager Burton). Atlanta moved up modestly for Xavier Watts, a targeted board move with outcome still pending

Buffalo acquired 2025 2nd round pick (41st overall, T.J. Sanders), 2025 3rd round pick (72nd overall, Landon Jackson) and 2025 7th round pick (240th overall, Kaden Prather) from Chicago Bears for 2025 2nd round pick (56th overall, Ozzy Trapilo), 2025 2nd round pick (62nd overall, Shemar Turner) and 2025 4th round pick (109th overall subsequently traded, Deone Walker). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Princely Umanmielen was selected 77th overall as a developmental edge rusher, giving Carolina a mid-round prospect while trading back with a fifth added

Denver acquired 2025 2nd round pick (57th overall subsequently traded, Tate Ratledge), 2025 3rd round pick (74th overall, Pat Bryant), 2025 4th round pick (111th overall subsequently traded, Ty Robinson) and 2025 7th round pick (230th overall subsequently traded, Dan Jackson) from Carolina Panthers in exchange for 2025 2nd round pick (51st overall, Nic Scourton), 2025 3rd round pick (85th overall subsequently traded, Nohl Williams), 2025 4th round pick (122nd overall, Lathan Ransom) and 2025 6th round pick (208th overall, Jimmy Horn). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Denver acquired 2025 2nd round pick (60th overall, RJ Harvey) and 2025 4th round pick (130th overall subsequently traded, Malachi Moore) from Detroit Lions in exchange for 2025 2nd round pick (57th overall, Tate Ratledge) and 2025 7th round pick (230th overall, Dan Jackson). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Denver acquired 2025 3rd round pick (101st overall, Sai'vion Jones) and 2025 4th round pick (134th overall, Quandarrius Robinson) from Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for 2025 4th round pick (111th overall, Ty Robinson), 2025 4th round pick (130th overall subsequently traded, Malachi Moore) and 2025 6th round pick (191st overall, Myles Hinton). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Jacksonville moved down from pick 70 to pick 102 while adding two future third-round picks from Detroit. This is a classic delayed-value trade. The Jaguars sacrificed immediate draft position but added two future Day 2 assets, making the final grade dependent on how those future picks develop

Jacksonville moved from pick 102 to pick 89 with Houston, adding a seventh-rounder while sending a fifth. The Jaguars used accumulated draft capital to climb back up for Wyatt Milum. The move is reasonable, but the value is close enough that player development will decide the final winner

Kansas City acquired 2025 3rd round pick (85th overall, Nohl Williams) from New England Patriots.

Minnesota acquired 2025 3rd round pick (102nd overall, Tai Felton) and 2025 5th round pick (142nd overall subsequently traded, Rylie Mills) from Houston Texans for 2025 3rd round pick (97th overall, Jaylin Smith) and 2025 6th round pick (187th overall, Jaylen Reed). The value curve favors Houston Texans. Minnesota either surrendered the stronger asset package or failed to generate enough durable return from what came back.

Seattle used a two-for-one move to climb for Nick Emmanwori, betting on a specific defensive fit. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired 2025 2nd round pick (35th overall, Nick Emmanwori) and gave up 2025 2nd round pick (52nd overall, Oluwafemi Oladejo); 2025 3rd round pick (82nd overall, Kevin Winston), with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Houston acquired 2025 2nd round pick (48th overall, Aireontae Ersery) from Las Vegas Raiders for 2025 2nd round pick (58th overall, Jack Bech) and 2025 3rd round pick (99th overall subsequently traded, Charles Grant). Houston moved up ten spots to secure offensive tackle help, while Las Vegas added an extra third-round pick and still selected Jack Bech at No. 58. This profiles as a balanced draft-capital exchange pending long-term player outcomes.

Atlanta acquired 2025 1st round pick (26th overall, James Pearce); 2025 3rd round pick (101st overall subsequently traded, Sai'vion Jones) from Los Angeles Rams for 2025 2nd round pick (46th overall, Terrance Ferguson), 2025 7th round pick (242nd overall, Konata Mumpfield); 2026 1st round pick (13th overall, Ty Simpson). Atlanta paid future premium capital to move into Round 1 for James Pearce, a high-variance bet still awaiting outcome

Cleveland acquired 2025 5th round pick (166th overall subsequently traded, Tory Horton) and a 2027 5th round pick from Houston Texans for 2025 6th round pick (179th overall subsequently traded, Ollie Gordon), 2025 6th round pick (216th overall subsequently traded, Jeremy Crawshaw) and 2025 7th round pick (255th overall, Luke Lachey). Recent or future-pick transaction; public row retained while final career value remains open.

Jacksonville paid a premium package to move from No. 5 to No. 2 in the 2025 draft for Travis Hunter, also receiving fourth- and sixth-round picks. Hunter's two-way upside is generational and gives Jacksonville a rare ceiling bet. The price, however, included a second-rounder, a fourth-rounder, and a future first, making this a true premium buy rather than a clean steal

Kansas City acquired 2025 1st round pick (32nd overall, Josh Simmons) and 202. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Dallas acquired Joe Milton and 2025 7th round pick (217th overall, Jay Toia) from New England Patriots for 2025 5th round pick (171st overall subsequently traded, Miles Frazier). Dallas receives a slight edge because the Cowboys gained the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

Minnesota added Jordan Mason as a useful backfield piece while moving down in 2025 draft value and sending a future sixth. The Vikings get the edge because Mason had clearer immediate roster value.

Minnesota acquired 2026 6th round pick (198th overall, Demond Claiborne) from Houston Texans for Ed Ingram. The value curve favors Houston Texans. Minnesota either surrendered the stronger asset package or failed to generate enough durable return from what came back.

Buffalo acquired 2025 5th round pick (170th overall, Jordan Hancock) and 2026 7th round pick (228th overall subsequently traded, VJ Payne) from Dallas Cowboys for Kaiir Elam and 2025 6th round pick (204th overall, Ajani Cornelius). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Dallas acquired Kenneth Murray and 2025 7th round pick (239th overall, Phil Mafah) from Tennessee Titans for 2025 6th round pick (188th overall, Kalel Mullings). Dallas receives a slight edge because the Cowboys gained the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

Philadelphia acquired Kenyon Green and 2026 5th round pick (167th overall subsequently traded, Jalon Kilgore) from Houston Texans for C.J. Gardner-Johnson and 2026 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, CJ Williams).

New Orleans acquired Davon Godchaux from New England Patriots for 2026 7th round pick (224th overall subsequently traded, Robert Spears-Jennings). New Orleans received Davon Godchaux and sent 2026 7th round pick (224th overall subsequently traded, Robert Spears-Jennings). The standard profile, available production record, and low confidence level supports a conservative grade

Philadelphia acquired Dorian Thompson-Robinson and 2025 5th round pick (164th overall subsequently traded, Yahya Black) from Cleveland Browns for Kenny Pickett.

Washington acquired Laremy Tunsil and a fourth-round pick from Houston for a package of 2025 and 2026 draft assets. Washington received a premium left tackle, while Houston gained meaningful draft volume. This remains an even high-value trade for now.

Seattle traded WR D.K. Metcalf and a 2025 sixth-round pick to Pittsburgh for second- and seventh-round picks. Moving Metcalf ended a major offensive era and reset Seattle's receiver-room timeline. The return gave the Seahawks draft flexibility before a contract decision, but losing a rare physical WR1 without a proven replacement keeps the grade modest until the downstream picks mature. This deserves historic tier because of Metcalf's stature, even if the verdict remains incomplete.

Seattle traded QB Geno Smith to Las Vegas for a 2025 third-round pick later used on QB Jalen Milroe. Smith's Seahawks revival was one of the best veteran quarterback stories of the 2020s, so moving him signaled a major roster pivot. The return gave Seattle a Day 2 swing at quarterback upside and cap flexibility, but the long-term grade depends on whether Milroe becomes more than a developmental bet. B- is appropriately cautious for a post-peak veteran trade with an unfinished outcome.

Jacksonville traded Christian Kirk to Houston for a 2026 7th-round pick. The move cleared a veteran receiver contract, but the football return was thin for a player who had produced as a legitimate WR2 in Jacksonville. Getting only a 7th for a former major free-agent signing makes this a disappointing exit unless the cap flexibility becomes more valuable than the public record shows

Kansas City acquired 2026 4th round pick (125th overall subsequently traded,. Chicago Bears gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2025 6th round pick (202nd overall subsequently traded, Gavin Bartholomew) from Chicago Bears for Jonah Jackson. This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

San Francisco surrendered more long-term value than it recovered, with Deebo Samuel proving more meaningful than 2025 5th round pick (147th overall, Jordan James)

New York acquired 2025 1st round pick (25th overall, Jaxson Dart) from Houston Texans for 2025 2nd round pick (34th overall, Jayden Higgins), 2025 3rd round pick (99th overall subsequently traded, Charles Grant) and 2026 3rd round pick (69th overall subsequently traded, Sam Roush). Status:.

The fourth-round pick became Trevor Etienne, who rushed for 431 yards and five touchdowns as a rookie backup. Carolina extracted a functioning contributor for a wideout who had underperformed

Cincinnati acquired Khalil Herbert from Chicago Bears for 2025 7th round pick (233rd overall, Kyle Monangai). Outcome remains thin and role-dependent, so this stays neutral until the later pick and player value settle. Cincinnati receives a measurable edge on realized value, roster utility, or pick efficiency rather than a flat neutral verdict

Cleveland acquired 2026 6th round pick (199th overall subsequently traded, Emmanuel Henderson) and 2025 5th round pick (164th overall subsequently traded, Yahya Black) from Detroit Lions for Za'Darius Smith and 2026 7th round pick (222nd overall, Tyre West). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

New Orleans acquired 2025 3rd round pick (93rd overall, Jonas Sanker), 2025 4th round pick (131st overall, Quincy Riley) and 2025 6th round pick (184th overall, Devin Neal) from Washington Commanders for Marshon Lattimore and 2025 5th round pick (147th overall subsequently traded, Jordan James). The Lattimore trade reflects a rebuilding pivot; the pick return is meaningful, but the final verdict depends on the selected players

Pittsburgh traded a fifth-round pick to the Jets for receiver Mike Williams. Williams was injury-prone and contributed minimally before departing in free agency. Mike Williams had legitimate big-play ability but his chronic knee issues limited his effectiveness in Pittsburgh. The Jets received a fifth-round pick for a player they were moving on from anyway. Francisco Mauigoa (Pittsburgh's fifth, used by NY) has developmental potential. Given Williams's minimal production in Pittsburgh, the original "New York Jets Win" overstates the outcome — this is closer to even, a fair market transaction

Pittsburgh acquired Preston Smith from Green Bay for a seventh-round pick. Smith gave the Steelers veteran edge depth for minimal draft cost, while Green Bay received only late-round value. Pittsburgh wins the trade.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2026 7th round pick (232nd overall, Tim Keenan) from Baltimore Ravens for Tre'Davious White and a 2027 7th round pick. Hindsight leans toward Baltimore Ravens because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

The exchange of Khalil Davis for 2026 7th round pick (243rd overall, Aiden Fisher) stayed close enough in realized value to remain a true even verdict

Denver traded Baron Browning to Arizona for a 2025 sixth-round pick, moving a former third-round linebacker/edge defender before his next contract decision. The Broncos chose draft value and roster flexibility over waiting on Browning’s long-term fit. A sixth-round pick was not a premium return, but it reflected the market for a rotational pass rusher with contract considerations approaching. Arizona bought a useful defensive flyer at a manageable price

Carolina received a 2025 fifth-round pick — eventually Mitchell Evans — after releasing a receiver who had become a locker-room problem. Getting any return was a win relative to outright release

Minnesota acquired Cam Robinson for needed tackle help and paid a future fourth-round pick. Robinson gave the Vikings useful short-term protection value, while Jacksonville’s return was modest.

Kansas City acquired Josh Uche from New England/Boston Patriots for 2026 6th. New England Patriots gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Kansas City acquired DeAndre Hopkins from Tennessee Titans for 2025 5th round. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Seattle acquired Ernest Jones from Tennessee Titans on 2024-10-23, sending Jerome Baker; 2025 4th round pick (120th overall, Gunnar Helm) in return. The value case for Seattle comes down to the direct asset exchange: Ernest Jones for Jerome Baker; 2025 4th round pick (120th overall, Gunnar Helm). There is no clear evidence of a major downstream swing, so the grade stays modest rather than inflated. For TradeVerdicts, this row matters because it preserves the transaction trail without overstating the long-term Seahawks impact.

Buffalo acquired Amari Cooper and 2025 6th round pick (204th overall subsequently traded, Ajani Cornelius) from Cleveland Browns for 2025 3rd round pick (94th overall, Dillon Gabriel) and 2026 7th round pick (242nd overall subsequently traded, Deven Eastern). Buffalo bought veteran receiver help during a contender window, but the price included a future third. This should remain provisional until Cooper’s full Bills impact and the pick outcome are known

Minnesota acquired Cam Akers and 2026 7th round pick (244th overall subsequently traded, Cole Wisniewski) from Houston Texans for 2026 6th round pick (198th overall subsequently traded, Demond Claiborne). The deal grades as balanced. Neither side clearly separated after weighing player value, draft capital, roster impact, and what each team gave up.

The Jets acquired Davante Adams from Las Vegas for conditional 2025 draft value. The Raiders received a pick package, but Adams carried the stronger immediate football value. New York wins the trade.

Seattle acquired Roy Robertson-Harris from Jacksonville Jaguars on 2024-10-14, sending 2026 6th round pick (213th overall subsequently traded, Jordan van den Berg) in return. Seattle's side of this 2024 draft-capital exchange was straightforward: the Seahawks received Roy Robertson-Harris and surrendered 2026 6th round pick (213th overall subsequently traded, Jordan van den Berg). The grade reflects the known return, while Jacksonville Jaguars's grade accounts for the countervalue. The trade belongs as a standard database entry because its documented impact was real but not franchise-shaping.

The Chargers acquired Elijah Molden from Tennessee Titans for 2026 7th round pick (238th overall subsequently traded, Max Llewellyn). The trade grades in the Chargers' favor because the incoming side carried stronger long-term value, better draft leverage, or more useful roster impact than the outgoing package.

The Chargers acquired Taylor Heinicke from Atlanta Falcons for 2025 7th round pick (218th overall, Jack Nelson). The trade grades in the Chargers' favor because the incoming side carried stronger long-term value, better draft leverage, or more useful roster impact than the outgoing package.

New Orleans acquired John Ridgeway and 2025 7th round pick (248th overall, Moliki Matavao) from Washington Commanders for 2025 6th round pick (184th overall subsequently traded, Devin Neal). New Orleans received John Ridgeway and 2025 7th round pick (248th overall, Moliki Matavao) and sent 2025 6th round pick (184th overall subsequently traded, Devin Neal). The standard profile, available production record, and low confidence level supports a conservative grade

Buffalo acquired Brandon Codrington and 2026 7th round pick (220th overall, Toriano Pride) from New York Jets for 2026 6th round pick (208th overall subsequently traded, Anterio Thompson). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Kansas City acquired Peyton Hendershot from Dallas Cowboys for 2026 7th round. Dallas Cowboys gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

The Rams acquired a 2026 fifth-round pick from Tennessee for Ernest Jones and a 2026 sixth-round pick. Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired draft value carried more weight than the outgoing package.

Green Bay acquired Malik Willis from Tennessee Titans for 2025 7th round pick (239th overall subsequently traded, Phil Mafah). The Packers side produced stronger hindsight value, either through the better player outcome, better draft conversion, or a superior capital return. Green Bay gets the higher grade because the retained value and on-field return outweighed the cost.

Kansas City acquired Cameron Thomas from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2025. Arizona Cardinals gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Seattle acquired Trevis Gipson from Jacksonville Jaguars on 2024-08-26, sending 2025 6th round pick (194th overall, Jalen McLeod) in return. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired Trevis Gipson and gave up 2025 6th round pick (194th overall, Jalen McLeod), with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Cleveland acquired 2025 6th round pick (192nd overall subsequently traded, Bryce Cabeldue) from Chicago Bears for Chris Williams and 2025 7th round pick (240th overall subsequently traded, Kaden Prather). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Seattle acquired 2025 6th round pick (185th overall subsequently traded, Will Howard) from Chicago Bears on 2024-08-23, sending Darrell Taylor in return. From a hindsight view, the Seahawks neither created a defining win nor suffered a major loss here. The important public-facing detail is the actual exchange — 2025 6th round pick (185th overall subsequently traded, Will Howard) for Darrell Taylor — rather than a forced storyline. That makes the row useful for database completeness while keeping it below the major-trade tier.

Cleveland acquired a conditional 2025 pick (7th round; not conveyed) from Commanders for Cade York. The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Washington acquired 2025 3rd round pick (79th overall subsequently traded, Jaylin Noel), 2025 7th round pick (236th overall subsequently traded, LeQuint Allen) and 2025 7th round pick (248th overall subsequently traded, Moliki Matavao) from Philadelphia Eagles for Jahan Dotson and 2025 5th round pick (165th overall subsequently traded, Oronde Gadsden). The asset path gave Washington the stronger return, with the stronger side reflected in the grade cards.

Atlanta acquired Matt Judon from New England Patriots for 2025 3rd round pick (77th overall subsequently traded, Princely Umanmielen). Atlanta paid a Day 2 pick for Matt Judon, a high-upside veteran swing whose final value depends on short-term impact

Dallas acquired Jordan Phillips and 2026 7th round pick (221st overall subsequently traded, Jack Endries) from New York Giants for 2026 6th round pick (193rd overall, Jack Kelly). Dallas receives a slight edge because the Cowboys gained the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

Seattle acquired 2026 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Anez Cooper) from Cleveland Browns on 2024-08-11, sending Nick Harris; 2026 7th round pick (248th overall, Carsen Ryan) in return. The value case for Seattle comes down to the direct asset exchange: 2026 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Anez Cooper) for Nick Harris; 2026 7th round pick (248th overall, Carsen Ryan). There is no clear evidence of a major downstream swing, so the grade stays modest rather than inflated. For TradeVerdicts, this row matters because it preserves the transaction trail without overstating the long-term Seahawks impact.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2026 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Micah Morris) from Houston Texans for Ben Skowronek and 2026 7th round pick (245th overall subsequently traded, Jam Miller). Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired value, role, or draft outcome carried more weight than the outgoing package.

Buffalo acquired 2025 4th round pick (109th overall, Deone Walker) from Chicago Bears for 2024 5th round pick (144th overall, Austin Booker). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Denver acquired defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers from the Jets for a future sixth-round pick, adding a proven front-seven contributor at a low acquisition cost. This was a sharp value play. Franklin-Myers brought established NFL production and versatility for the price of a late future pick, giving Denver immediate defensive-line help without sacrificing premium draft capital. The Jets’ side was more about cap and roster flexibility than pure player value

Detroit acquired 2024 6th round pick (189th overall, Mekhi Wingo) from Houston Texans for 2024 6th round pick (205th overall, Jawhar Jordan) and 2024 7th round pick (249th overall, LaDarius Henderson). Strict hindsight favors Detroit. The Lions' incoming side carried meaningfully stronger realized value than the assets sent to Houston Texans, either through premium player production, better draft conversion, or a cleaner long-term roster outcome.

Green Bay acquired 2024 5th round pick (163rd overall, Jacob Monk) from Buffalo Bills for 2024 5th round pick (168th overall, Javon Solomon) and 2024 6th round pick (219th overall, Daequan Hardy). The hindsight value tilted toward Buffalo Bills. Green Bay either surrendered the better long-term asset, paid premium capital for limited return, or failed to turn the incoming value into comparable production.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2024 5th round pick (164th overall, Jaylin Simpson) and 2024 6th round pick (201st overall, Micah Abraham) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2024 5th round pick (155th overall, Jeremiah Trotter). Strict hindsight does not create a decisive winner. The exchange reads as a balanced roster, draft-position, cash, or administrative move, with neither side receiving clearly superior long-term value.

The Jets moved down from No. 111 to No. 126 and added No. 190, while Green Bay moved up for Evan Williams. The Jets gained quantity, but Williams gave the Packers the clearer player value. Green Bay gets the modest hindsight edge.

New York Jets acquired 2025 3rd round pick (92nd overall subsequently traded, Jalen Milroe) from Detroit Lions for 2024 4th round pick (126th overall, Giovanni Manu). slight partner lean after regrade; the outgoing side shows a modest but real value edge rather than a true even.

Philadelphia acquired 2024 4th round pick (127th overall, Will Shipley) and 2025 5th round pick (161st overall, Smael Mondon) from Houston Texans for 2024 4th round pick (123rd overall, Cade Stover).

Philadelphia acquired 2024 5th round pick (164th overall subsequently traded, Jaylin Simpson), 2024 6th round pick (201st overall subsequently traded, Micah Abraham) and 2025 4th round pick (134th overall subsequently traded, Quandarrius Robinson) from Detroit Lions for 2024 4th round pick (132nd overall, Sione Vaki) and 2024 6th round pick (210th overall, Christian Mahogany).

Philadelphia acquired 2024 6th round pick (185th overall, Johnny Wilson) and 2024 6th round pick (190th overall, Dylan McMahon) from New York Jets for 2024 5th round pick (171st overall, Jordan Travis).

Seattle acquired 2024 4th round pick (121st overall, AJ Barner), 2024 5th round pick (136th overall, Nehemiah Pritchett); 2024 6th round pick (207th overall, Michael Jerrell) from Denver Broncos on 2024-04-27, sending 2024 4th round pick (102nd overall, Troy Franklin); 2024 7th round pick (235th overall, Devaughn Vele) in return. Seattle's side of this 2024 draft-capital exchange was straightforward: the Seahawks received 2024 4th round pick (121st overall, AJ Barner), 2024 5th round pick (136th overall, Nehemiah Pritchett); 2024 6th round pick (207th overall, Michael Jerrell) and surrendered 2024 4th round pick (102nd overall, Troy Franklin); 2024 7th round pick (235th overall, Devaughn Vele). The grade reflects the known return, while Denver Broncos's grade accounts for the countervalue. The trade belongs as a minor database entry because its documented impact was real but not franchise-shaping.

San Francisco traded two fifth-round picks to the Jets to move up for Isaac Guerendo. The Jets received useful pick volume, but Guerendo gives the 49ers the cleaner upside case. San Francisco gets a provisional edge.

Atlanta acquired 2024 2nd round pick (35th overall, Ruke Orhorhoro); 2024 6th round pick (186th overall, Jase McClellan) from Arizona Cardinals for 2024 2nd round pick (43rd overall, Max Melton); 2024 3rd round pick (79th overall subsequently traded, Matt Goncalves). Atlanta made a change-of-scenery swap involving Ruke Orhorhoro, with long-term value still unsettled

Jonathon Brooks was selected 46th overall and missed his rookie season with a torn ACL suffered in college. The pick represented a need-based reach during the rebuild

Carolina turned the Jets trade into Trevin Wallace and Chau Smith-Wade value, while New York landed Malachi Corley. Wallace became the more useful early contributor, giving the Panthers the current edge.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2024 3rd round pick (79th overall, Matt Goncalves) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2024 3rd round pick (82nd overall, Tip Reiman) and 2024 6th round pick (191st overall, Tejhaun Palmer). Hindsight favors the Colts side the edge because the incoming value produced more lasting franchise value than the package surrendered. The grade is still scaled to the trade tier so minor cash or depth moves do not receive exaggerated treatment.

Kansas City acquired 2024 2nd round pick (63rd overall, Kingsley Suamataia) a. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

The Chargers acquired 2024 2nd round pick (34th overall, Ladd McConkey) and 2024 5th round pick (137th overall, Tarheeb Still) from New England Patriots for 2024 2nd round pick (37th overall, Ja'Lynn Polk) and 2024 4th round pick (110th overall, Javon Baker). Early returns favor the Chargers: Ladd McConkey and Tarheeb Still outweighed the modest cost to move up.

New Orleans acquired 2024 2nd round pick (41st overall, Kool-Aid McKinstry) from Green Bay Packers for 2024 2nd round pick (45th overall, Edgerrin Cooper), 2024 5th round pick (168th overall subsequently traded, Javon Solomon) and 2024 6th round pick (190th overall subsequently traded, Dylan McMahon). New Orleans received 2024 2nd round pick (41st overall, Kool-Aid McKinstry) and sent 2024 2nd round pick (45th overall, Edgerrin Cooper), 2024 5th round pick (168th overall subsequently traded, Javon Solomon) and 2024 6th round pick (190th overall subsequently traded, Dylan McMahon). The standard profile, available production record, and low confidence level supports a conservative grade

Philadelphia acquired 2024 3rd round pick (86th overall subsequently traded, Dominick Puni) and 2024 4th round pick (123rd overall subsequently traded, Cade Stover) from Houston Texans for 2024 3rd round pick (78th overall, Calen Bullock).

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2024 2nd round pick (39th overall, Braden Fiske) from Carolina Panthers for 2024 2nd round pick (52nd overall subsequently traded, Adonai Mitchell), 2024 5th round pick (155th overall subsequently traded, Jeremiah Trotter) and 2025 2nd round pick (57th overall subsequently traded, Tate Ratledge). Hindsight leans toward Carolina Panthers because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Washington acquired 2024 2nd round pick (50th overall, Mike Sainristil), 2024 2nd round pick (53rd overall, Ben Sinnott) and 2024 5th round pick (161st overall, Dominique Hampton) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2024 2nd round pick (40th overall, Cooper DeJean), 2024 3rd round pick (78th overall subsequently traded, Calen Bullock) and 2024 5th round pick (152nd overall, Ainias Smith). The asset path gave Washington the stronger return, with the stronger side reflected in the grade cards.

Buffalo traded down from No. 28, acquiring the No. 32 pick, a third-round pick, and a seventh-round pick from Kansas City for No. 28 plus lower selections. The Chiefs selected Xavier Worthy at No. 28. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation yet, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players create a clear outcome gap

Xavier Legette caught 48 passes for 702 yards and five touchdowns as a rookie, giving Bryce Young a needed perimeter target

Dallas moved down from No. 24 to No. 29 in the 2024 first round and added third-round value, landing Tyler Guyton and Cooper Beebe while Detroit moved up for Terrion Arnold. Arnold gives Detroit a premium defensive asset, but Dallas received the stronger total pick package.

Minnesota moved up for Dallas Turner, a premium defensive prospect, but Jacksonville moved down and still landed Brian Thomas Jr. while adding extra draft capital. The total return gives the Jaguars the better value.

Minnesota moved up one slot to secure J.J. McCarthy and added Will Reichard, but the Jets collected extra draft capital while still landing Olumuyiwa Fashanu. The added pick value gives New York the slight edge.

Denver acquired Zach Wilson and a seventh-round pick from the Jets for a sixth-round pick, taking a low-cost quarterback flyer after Wilson’s New York tenure collapsed. This was a cheap upside attempt rather than a franchise-quarterback solution. Denver paid little to add a former No. 2 overall pick to the quarterback room, while the Jets cleared a failed developmental investment. The grade stays modest because the acquisition carried name value but limited proven on-field reliability

Cleveland acquired 2024 7th round pick (227th overall, Myles Harden) from Titans for Leroy Watson. Cleveland converted a player asset into draft capital without a clear major partner-side outcome.

Buffalo acquired a 2025 second-round draft pick from the Houston Texans for Stefon Diggs, a 2024 sixth-round pick, and a 2025 fifth-round pick. Buffalo traded a productive but aging, high-cap veteran receiver for future draft capital during a roster-refresh window. The second-round pick provided meaningful long-term flexibility; immediate on-field impact was replaced via other moves. The process was sound cap-and-asset management, though the final player-value chain remains connected to Buffalo’s 2025 draft maneuvering

Kansas City acquired 2025 3rd round pick (66th overall, Ashton Gillotte) and. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Philadelphia acquired 2026 3rd round pick (68th overall, Markel Bell) (would have converted to 2nd round if Reddick played 67.5% of snaps and recorded 10+ sacks OR if subsequently traded to a NFC team) from New York Jets for Haason Reddick.

Pittsburgh acquired Justin Fields from Chicago for a conditional 2025 sixth-round pick; the pick would have improved to a fourth-rounder if Fields played 51% of the 2024 snaps. The cleaned record is a straightforward low-cost quarterback upside swing. Pittsburgh avoided premium draft capital while adding a former first-round passer with starting experience, making the trade a defensible Steelers win at the sixth-round price

Minnesota acquired 2024 1st round pick (23rd overall subsequently traded, Brian Thomas) and 2024 7th round pick (232nd overall, Levi Drake Rodriguez) from Houston Texans for 2024 2nd round pick (42nd overall, Kamari Lassiter), 2024 6th round pick (188th overall, Jamal Hill) and 2025 2nd round pick (56th overall subsequently traded, Ozzy Trapilo). The deal grades as balanced. Neither side clearly separated after weighing player value, draft capital, roster impact, and what each team gave up.

Pittsburgh acquired 2024 3rd round pick (98th overall, Payton Wilson), 2025 7th round pick (223rd overall subsequently traded, Damien Martinez) and 2025 7th round pick (229th overall, Donte Kent) from Philadelphia Eagles for Kenny Pickett and 2024 4th round pick (120th overall subsequently traded, Jaylen Wright). Pittsburgh came away from this 2024 transaction with the stronger side of the exchange. The assets acquired from Philadelphia Eagles provided meaningful roster value — either through direct on-field contribution, draft capital, or positional need addressed — that outpaced what was sent away

The Chargers sent Keenan Allen to Chicago for a 2024 fourth-rounder. Cap-driven fire sale. Allen remained a high-volume WR1. A Day 3 pick for a six-time Pro Bowler is poor football value.

Seattle acquired Sam Howell, 2024 4th round pick (102nd overall subsequently traded, Troy Franklin); 2024 6th round pick (179th overall, Sataoa Laumea) from Washington Commanders on 2024-03-14, sending 2024 3rd round pick (78th overall subsequently traded, Calen Bullock); 2024 5th round pick (152nd overall subsequently traded, Ainias Smith) in return. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired Sam Howell, 2024 4th round pick (102nd overall subsequently traded, Troy Franklin); 2024 6th round pick (179th overall, Sataoa Laumea) and gave up 2024 3rd round pick (78th overall subsequently traded, Calen Bullock); 2024 5th round pick (152nd overall subsequently traded, Ainias Smith), with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Buffalo acquired 2024 5th round pick (144th overall subsequently traded, Austin Booker) from Chicago Bears for Ryan Bates. Buffalo converted a player or rights asset into draft capital, which is usually sound portfolio management unless the player became a major contributor elsewhere. Without a clear star outcome attached, the Bills receive a modest value edge for gaining flexible future capital

Carolina used the capital to select Xavier Legette and add a fifth-round depth piece, beginning a post-Burns rebuild

Cincinnati traded Joe Mixon to Houston for a 2024 seventh-round pick. The Bengals had age, salary, and roster-direction reasons, but Houston received the immediate starting-caliber back. The Texans get the edge.

Denver traded Jerry Jeudy to Cleveland for fifth- and sixth-round picks, ending a first-round receiver investment that never fully broke through with the Broncos. The return was modest for a former first-round pick, but Denver was moving on from an inconsistent fit and recouped usable draft capital before a larger contract decision. Cleveland took the upside swing on Jeudy’s talent, while Denver accepted a reset that reflected how far his value had fallen from draft day

Jacksonville acquired Mac Jones from New England Patriots for 2024 6th round pick (193rd overall, Joe Milton). Jacksonville used a sixth-round pick on a backup quarterback with starting experience. The cost was modest enough to make the bet defensible

New York Jets acquired Morgan Moses and 2024 4th round pick (134th overall, Braelon Allen) from Baltimore Ravens for 2024 4th round pick (113th overall, Devontez Walker) and 2024 6th round pick (218th overall, Devin Leary). major hindsight edge for the Jets based on star-level return, premium draft value, or sharply better realized asset value.

Pittsburgh acquired 2024 6th round pick (178th overall, Logan Lee) and Donte Jackson from Carolina Panthers for Diontae Johnson and 2024 7th round pick (240th overall, Michael Barrett). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while Carolina Panthers received comparable value in return

San Francisco acquired Maliek Collins from Houston for late-round draft value. Collins gave the 49ers immediate defensive-line help at a manageable cost, making this a modest San Francisco win.

Tampa Bay acquired 2024 3rd round pick (92nd overall; Jalen McMillan Detroit Lions gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Buffalo acquired Rasul Douglas and 2024 5th round pick (160th overall, Edefuan Ulofoshio) from Green Bay Packers for 2024 3rd round pick (91st overall, Ty'Ron Hopper). Buffalo paid a third-round pick but received Rasul Douglas and a fifth, adding immediate cornerback help for a contender. The trade made sense competitively and returned meaningful snaps

Chicago acquired Montez Sweat from Washington Commanders/Redskins for 2024 2nd round pick (40th overall subsequently traded, Cooper DeJean). Hindsight favors the partner based on greater cumulative production and roster impact.

Cleveland acquired 2025 6th round pick (204th overall subsequently traded, Ajani Cornelius) from Detroit Lions for Donovan Peoples-Jones. Cleveland converted a player asset into draft capital without a clear major partner-side outcome.

Minnesota acquired Joshua Dobbs and 2024 7th round pick (230th overall, Michael Jurgens) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2024 6th round pick (186th overall subsequently traded, Jase McClellan). The value curve favors Minnesota. The Vikings received the stronger or more useful side of the exchange after accounting for draft position, player value, and long-term roster return. Confidence is reduced because part of the record is conditional, lightly documented, recent, or dependent on future pick/player outcomes.

Minnesota received 2024 6th round pick (177th overall, Walter Rouse) and sent Ezra Cleveland

San Francisco came out slightly behind in a close exchange, with 2024 3rd round pick (100th overall, Luke McCaffrey) carrying a bit more value than Chase Young

Atlanta acquired Kentavius Street; a conditional 2025 pick (7th round; not conveyed) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2025 7th round pick (229th overall subsequently traded, Donte Kent). Atlanta gained more usable capital or player value on paper, making this a modest Falcons win in the historical ledger

Seattle acquired DL Leonard Williams from the Giants for a 2024 second-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick. The cost was aggressive for a midseason defensive-line addition, but Williams immediately raised Seattle's front-seven ceiling and later became part of the team's longer-term defensive plan. This is not a bargain-bin deal; it is a contender-style investment in a proven interior disruptor. The grade reflects real player quality balanced against premium draft cost.

Philadelphia acquired Kevin Byard from Tennessee Titans for Terrell Edmunds, 2024 5th round pick (146th overall, Jarvis Brownlee) and 2024 6th round pick (182nd overall, Jha'Quan Jackson).

Kansas City acquired Mecole Hardman and 2025 7th round pick (225th overall su. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2025 6th round pick (190th overall subsequently traded, Tim Smith) from Atlanta Falcons for Van Jefferson and 2025 7th round pick (242nd overall subsequently traded, Konata Mumpfield). Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired value, role, or draft outcome carried more weight than the outgoing package.

Chicago acquired 2025 6th round pick (192nd overall subsequently traded, Bryce Cabeldue) from Miami Dolphins for Chase Claypool and 2025 7th round pick (224th overall subsequently traded, Kyonte Hamilton). Chicago gets the slight hindsight edge once actual careers, pick conversions, and roster value are weighed. This is no longer treated as a default Even merely because the compensation was modest; the grade reflects the better realized football asset.

Denver acquired 2024 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Michael Jerrell) from San Francisco 49ers for Randy Gregory and 2024 7th round pick (232nd overall subsequently traded, Levi Drake Rodriguez). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

The Chargers acquired 2025 6th round pick (181st overall subsequently traded, Kyle McCord) from New England Patriots for J.C. Jackson and 2025 7th round pick (238th overall subsequently traded, Ricky White). The trade grades in the Chargers' favor because the incoming side carried stronger long-term value, better draft leverage, or more useful roster impact than the outgoing package.

Minnesota acquired Cam Akers and a conditional 2026 pick (7th round; did not convey) from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for a conditional 2026 pick (6th round; did not convey). The value curve favors Minnesota. The Vikings received the stronger overall return after weighing player value, draft capital, roster impact, and what each side gave up.

Buffalo acquired 2025 6th round pick (177th overall, Dorian Strong) from New York Giants for Boogie Basham and 2025 7th round pick (246th overall, Korie Black). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Ihmir Smith-Marsette contributed on kick returns and as a depth receiver for Carolina. The seventh became Tommy Akingbesote, who earned a roster spot

Denver acquired Wil Lutz from New Orleans Saints for 2024 7th round pick (239th overall, Josiah Ezirim). Denver paid draft capital for Wil Lutz, making this a targeted personnel acquisition instead of a pure pick shuffle. The Broncos grade reflects the balance between immediate roster help and the opportunity cost of the pick sent to New Orleans Saints

Denver acquired 2025 6th round pick (208th overall subsequently traded, Jimmy Horn) from Philadelphia Eagles for Albert Okwuegbunam and 2025 7th round pick (236th overall subsequently traded, LeQuint Allen). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

New England acquired 2025 7th round pick (217th overall subsequently traded, Jay Toia) from Tennessee Titans for Nick Folk. Patriots Lean; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

Pittsburgh acquired 2025 6th round pick (202nd overall subsequently traded, Gavin Bartholomew) from Houston Texans for Kendrick Green. The trade grades against Pittsburgh because the outgoing side carried more durable value, stronger draft upside, or a better long-term return for Houston Texans

The Raiders-Kansas City Chiefs exchange brought 2024 6th round pick (208th overall, Dylan Laube) to Las Vegas Raiders and sent out Neil Farrell. On hindsight value, this lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

The Chargers acquired 2025 7th round pick (218th overall subsequently traded, Jack Nelson) from Cleveland Browns for Dustin Hopkins. The Chargers converted a player asset into draft capital, creating the cleaner value path.

Miami acquired 2024 6th round pick (184th overall, Malik Washington) from Bears for Dan Feeney. Miami added quantity and flexibility, a sensible process win unless the outgoing asset became clearly superior. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Minnesota acquired 2024 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Jamal Hill) from New England Patriots for Vederian Lowe. The value curve favors New England Patriots. Minnesota either surrendered the stronger asset package or failed to generate enough durable return from what came back.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Kevin Dotson, 2024 5th round pick (155th overall subsequently traded, Jeremiah Trotter) and 2025 6th round pick (195th overall subsequently traded, Luke Newman) from Pittsburgh Steelers for 2024 4th round pick (120th overall subsequently traded, Jaylen Wright) and 2025 5th round pick (162nd overall subsequently traded, Francisco Mauigoa). Hindsight leans toward Pittsburgh Steelers because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

San Francisco moved Trey Lance to Dallas for a 2024 fourth-round pick that became Malik Mustapha. Lance did not become the Cowboys answer, while the 49ers recovered real draft value. San Francisco wins decisively.

Arizona acquired 2024 5th round pick (162nd overall, Christian Jones) from Houston Texans for Josh Jones and 2024 7th round pick (224th overall subsequently traded, Daijahn Anthony). Even. This remains a true draw because the confirmed assets do not create a reliable value gap after accounting for player impact, draft slot value, and incomplete historical detail

Cleveland acquired 2024 5th round pick (156th overall, Jamari Thrash) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for Joshua Dobbs and 2024 7th round pick (230th overall subsequently traded, Michael Jurgens). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

New York acquired Isaiah Simmons from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2024 7th round pick (226th overall, Jaden Davis). The standard designation reflects the available asset quality, career impact, and certainty of the historical record. Status:.

New York Jets acquired a conditional 2025 pick (6th-round; conveys if Mims makes DET 53-man roster (did not convey)) from Detroit Lions for Denzel Mims and a conditional 2025 pick (7th-round; conveys if Mims makes DET 53-man roster (did not convey)). slight partner lean after regrade; the outgoing side shows a modest but real value edge rather than a true even.

Jacksonville acquired 2026 7th round pick (233rd overall, Zach Durfee) from Detroit Lions for Riley Patterson. Jacksonville converted a roster piece into draft capital. The return was modest, but the move created usable asset value

Minnesota received 2025 5th round pick (139th overall, Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins) and 2024 5th round pick (157th overall subsequently traded, Chau Smith-Wade) and sent Za'Darius Smith, 2025 6th round pick (200th overall subsequently traded, Rayuan Lane) and 2025 7th round pick (240th overall subsequently traded, Kaden Prather)

Buffalo acquired 2023 5th round pick (150th overall, Justin Shorter) and 2023 6th round pick (215th overall subsequently traded, Zach Evans) from Washington Commanders for 2023 5th round pick (137th overall, K.J. Henry). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Cleveland acquired 2024 6th round pick (206th overall, Nathaniel Watson) from Baltimore Ravens for 2023 7th round pick (229th overall, Andrew Vorhees). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Denver acquired Adam Trautman and 2023 7th round pick (257th overall, Alex Forsyth) from New Orleans Saints for 2023 6th round pick (195th overall, A.T. Perry). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2023 5th round pick (174th overall, Warren McClendon) and 2023 7th round pick (259th overall, Desjuan Johnson) from Houston Texans for 2023 5th round pick (167th overall, Henry To'oTo'o). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Houston acquired 2023 6th round pick (205th overall, Xavier Hutchins. Houston Texans gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Jacksonville acquired 2023 7th round pick (227th overall, Raymond Vohasek), 2024 4th round pick (116th overall, Jordan Jefferson) from New Orleans Saints for 2023 4th round pick (127th overall, Jake Haener). Jacksonville converted a roster piece into draft capital. The return was modest, but the move created usable asset value

Kansas City acquired 2024 5th round pick (159th overall, Hunter Nourzad) from. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Minnesota acquired 2023 4th round pick (134th overall, Jay Ward) and 2024 5th round pick (167th overall subsequently traded, Keilan Robinson) from Kansas City Chiefs for 2023 4th round pick (119th overall, Chamarri Conner). The value curve favors Minnesota. The Vikings received the stronger or more useful side of the exchange after accounting for draft position, player value, and long-term roster return. Confidence is reduced because part of the record is conditional, lightly documented, recent, or dependent on future pick/player outcomes.

Minnesota acquired 2023 5th round pick (141st overall, Jaquelin Roy) from Baltimore/Indianapolis Colts for 2023 5th round pick (158th overall, Daniel Scott) and 2023 6th round pick (211th overall, Titus Leo). The deal grades as balanced. Neither side clearly separated after weighing player value, draft capital, roster impact, and what each team gave up.

New Orleans acquired 2023 4th round pick (103rd overall, Nick Saldiveri) from Chicago Bears for 2023 4th round pick (115th overall, Roschon Johnson) and 2023 5th round pick (165th overall, Terell Smith). New Orleans received 2023 4th round pick (103rd overall, Nick Saldiveri) and sent 2023 4th round pick (115th overall, Roschon Johnson) and 2023 5th round pick (165th overall, Terell Smith). The standard profile, available production record, and medium confidence level supports a conservative grade

Jets acquired 2023 4th round pick (120th overall, Carter Warren) and 2023 6th round pick (184th overall, Zaire Barnes) from New England Patriots for 2023 4th round pick (112th overall, Chad Ryland).

Philadelphia acquired 2023 4th round pick (105th overall, Kelee Ringo) from Houston Texans for 2024 3rd round pick (86th overall subsequently traded, Dominick Puni).

Philadelphia acquired D'Andre Swift and 2023 7th round pick (249th overall, Moro Ojomo) from Detroit Lions for 2023 7th round pick (219th overall, Antoine Green) and 2025 4th round pick (134th overall subsequently traded, Quandarrius Robinson).

The Raiders-Houston Texans exchange brought 2023 4th round pick (104th overall, Jakorian Bennett) and 2023 6th round pick (203rd overall, Amari Burney) to Las Vegas Raiders and sent out 2023 4th round pick (109th overall, Dylan Horton) and 2023 5th round pick (174th overall subsequently traded, Warren. On hindsight value, this lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Las Vegas Raiders received 2023 4th round pick (135th overall, Aidan O'Connell) in the transaction with New England Patriots, with 2023 5th round pick (144th overall, Atonio Mafi) and 2023 6th round pick (214th overall, Ameer Speed) leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Las Vegas Raiders added 2023 5th round pick (170th overall, Christopher Smith) while sending 2023 6th round pick (204th overall, Jarrick Bernard-Converse) and 2023 7th round pick (220th overall, Zack Kuntz) to New York Jets. the final grade reflects that the deal lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2023 5th round pick (175th overall, Davis Allen) and 2023 7th round pick (252nd overall subsequently traded, Alex Austin) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for 2023 5th round pick (171st overall, Payne Durham). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2023 6th round pick (215th overall, Zach Evans) from Buffalo Bills for 2023 7th round pick (252nd overall, Alex Austin) and 2024 6th round pick (189th overall subsequently traded, Mekhi Wingo). Hindsight leans toward Buffalo Bills because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Tampa Bay acquired 2023 6th round pick (191st overall; Trey Palmer) The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Arizona acquired 2023 2nd round pick (41st overall, BJ Ojulari), 2023 3rd round pick (72nd overall, Garrett Williams) and 2024 3rd round pick (71st overall, Isaiah Adams) from Tennessee Titans for 2023 2nd round pick (33rd overall, Will Levis) and 2023 3rd round pick (81st overall, Tyjae Spears). Cardinals Win. The talent acquired (2023 2nd round pick (41st overall, BJ Ojulari), 2023 3rd rou) provided more impact than what Arizona surrendered

Atlanta acquired 2023 2nd round pick (38th overall, Matthew Bergeron) from Indianapolis Colts for 2023 2nd round pick (44th overall, Julius Brents); 2023 4th round pick (110th overall, Adetomiwa Adebawore). Atlanta surrendered more value than it received on paper, so the verdict tilts against the Falcons

Denver acquired 2023 2nd round pick (63rd overall, Marvin Mims) and 2023 6th round pick (183rd overall, JL Skinner) from Detroit Lions in exchange for 2023 3rd round pick (68th overall, Hendon Hooker) and 2023 5th round pick (139th overall subsequently traded, Clayton Tune). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Detroit acquired 2023 3rd round pick (96th overall, Brodric Martin) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2023 4th round pick (122nd overall, Jon Gaines), 2023 5th round pick (139th overall, Clayton Tune) and 2023 5th round pick (168th overall, Owen Pappoe). Strict hindsight favors Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals.

Green Bay acquired 2023 2nd round pick (48th overall subsequently traded, Cody Mauch) and 2023 5th round pick (159th overall, Dontayvion Wicks) from Detroit Lions for 2023 2nd round pick (45th overall, Brian Branch). The Packers side produced stronger hindsight value, either through the better player outcome, better draft conversion, or a superior capital return. Green Bay gets the higher grade because the retained value and on-field return outweighed the cost.

Jacksonville acquired 2023 2nd round pick (61st overall, Brenton Strange), 2023 5th round pick (136th overall, Yasir Abdullah) from Chicago Bears for 2023 2nd round pick (56th overall, Tyrique Stevenson). The available record points to a balanced exchange. Jacksonville addressed a roster or draft-board preference, while the partner received comparable value in return

Kansas City acquired 2023 2nd round pick (55th overall, Rashee Rice) and 2023. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Kansas City acquired 2023 3rd round pick (92nd overall, Wanya Morris) from Ci. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Minnesota traded down and collected three selections, landing Mekhi Blackmon, Jaren Hall, and DeWayne McBride. Blackmon showed useful cornerback traits, but Hall and McBride supplied limited early value. The added volume helped, though the trade lacks a major Vikings payoff so far

Philadelphia acquired 2023 3rd round pick (65th overall, Tyler Steen), 2023 6th round pick (188th overall, Tanner McKee) and 2023 7th round pick (230th overall subsequently traded, Nick Broeker) from Houston Texans for 2023 2nd round pick (62nd overall, Juice Scruggs).

Pittsburgh acquired 2023 3rd round pick (93rd overall, Darnell Washington) and 2023 4th round pick (132nd overall, Nick Herbig) from Carolina Panthers for 2023 3rd round pick (80th overall, DJ Johnson). Pittsburgh came away from this 2023 transaction with the stronger side of the exchange. The assets acquired from Carolina Panthers provided meaningful roster value — either through direct on-field contribution, draft capital, or positional need addressed — that outpaced what was sent away

Las Vegas Raiders received 2023 2nd round pick (35th overall, Michael Mayer) from Indianapolis/Baltimore Colts for 2023 2nd round pick (38th overall subsequently traded, Matthew Bergeron) and 2023 5th round pick (141st overall subsequently traded, Jaquelin Roy). This grades as D+ for the Raiders because the package sent away carried substantially more hindsight value than the return

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2023 3rd round pick (73rd overall subsequently traded, Jalin Hyatt) and 2023 5th round pick (161st overall, Nick Hampton) from Houston Texans for 2023 3rd round pick (69th overall, Tank Dell). Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired value, role, or draft outcome carried more weight than the outgoing package.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2023 3rd round pick (89th overall, Kobie Turner) and 2023 4th round pick (128th overall, Stetson Bennett) from New York Giants for 2023 3rd round pick (73rd overall, Jalin Hyatt). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Seattle acquired 2023 4th round pick (108th overall, Anthony Bradford); 2024 3rd round pick (81st overall, Christian Haynes) from Denver Broncos on 2023-04-28, sending 2023 3rd round pick (83rd overall, Riley Moss) in return. This transaction fits Seattle's broader roster-building record for 2023: targeted asset movement, limited known aftershocks, and no obvious franchise-altering result. The Seahawks' grade is tied to receiving 2023 4th round pick (108th overall, Anthony Bradford); 2024 3rd round pick (81st overall, Christian Haynes) while parting with 2023 3rd round pick (83rd overall, Riley Moss). Denver Broncos's side is graded C because the exchange appears roughly balanced from the available record.

Tampa Bay acquired 2023 2nd round pick (48th overall; Cody Mauch) fr Green Bay Packers gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Arizona traded No. 3, used on Will Anderson, and No. 105 to Houston for Nos. 12 and 33 plus 2024 first- and third-round picks. Cardinals Loss. The package was strong and helped Arizona reshape the roster, but Anderson immediately became Defensive Rookie of the Year and an elite edge piece. Outcome note: Paris Johnson and Darius Robinson may still make this closer, but Anderson is the best known asset

Detroit acquired 2023 1st round pick (12th overall, Jahmyr Gibbs), 2023 2nd round pick (34th overall, Sam LaPorta) and 2023 5th round pick (168th overall subsequently traded, Owen Pappoe) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2023 1st round pick (6th overall, Paris Johnson) and 2023 3rd round pick (81st overall subsequently traded, Tyjae Spears). Strict hindsight favors Detroit. The Lions' incoming side carried meaningfully stronger realized value than the assets sent to Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals, either through premium player production, better draft conversion, or a cleaner long-term roster outcome.

Jacksonville traded down from #24 to #25, receiving a 5th (Antonio Johnson, 160th) and 7th (Derek Parish, 240th) from the Giants. Moving down one spot and picking up a 5th and 7th is textbook trade-down value. The picks at 25 (Dalton Kincaid, subsequently traded to Bills) and 24 (Deonte Banks for Giants) were close in value. Jacksonville netted two additional picks without meaningfully changing their position. This was a solid structural move by the Jaguars' front office, part of a two-step trade-down strategy that ultimately landed Anton Harrison

Jacksonville moved down from No. 25 to No. 27 and added fourth-round value, while Buffalo moved up for Dalton Kincaid. The Jaguars landed Anton Harrison and extra capital, and the Bills landed a productive tight end. This grades as even for now.

Philadelphia acquired 2023 3rd round pick (66th overall, Sydney Brown) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2023 3rd round pick (94th overall, Michael Wilson) and 2024 5th round pick (156th overall subsequently traded, Jamari Thrash).

Philadelphia acquired 2023 1st round pick (9th overall, Jalen Carter) from Chicago Bears for 2023 1st round pick (10th overall, Darnell Wright) and 2024 4th round pick (122nd overall, Tory Taylor).

Pittsburgh moved up from 17th to 14th overall in the 2023 draft, sending a fourth-round pick to New England to select offensive tackle Broderick Jones. Christian Gonzalez, taken at #17 by New England, became a 2023 Pro Bowl cornerback as a rookie. Pittsburgh paid a fourth-round premium to move up three spots for Broderick Jones, an athletic but raw tackle. Gonzalez turned out to be the better player in year one — a clear-cut first-team All-Pro rookie season cornerback. However, Jones has upside as a long-term blindside protector, and the trade was modest in cost. Original verdict of "Slight New England Edge" was appropriate but slightly generous to New England. Calling this Even with slight New England advantage is fair

Jets acquired QB Aaron Rodgers, #15, and #170 from Green Bay for #13, #42, #207, and a conditional 2024 second. Rodgers tore his Achilles four snaps into 2023 and went 5-12 in a mediocre 2024 season before retirement. Packers received extra premium picks and transitioned to Jordan Love. High-cost veteran gamble failed to deliver a playoff win.

Pittsburgh acquired Allen Robinson and 2023 7th round pick (251st overall, Spencer Anderson) from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for 2023 7th round pick (234th overall, Jason Taylor). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams received comparable value in return

Atlanta acquired Jeff Okudah from Detroit Lions for 2023 5th round pick (159th overall subsequently traded, Dontayvion Wicks). Atlanta took a modest-cost flyer on Jeff Okudah, a defensible bet with limited downside

Carolina moved Zane Gonzalez for a conditional seventh-round pick that was never conveyed, effectively releasing a veteran kicker for nothing of return

Cleveland acquired Elijah Moore and 2023 3rd round pick (74th overall, Cedric Tillman) from New York Jets for 2023 2nd round pick (42nd overall subsequently traded, Luke Musgrave). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Dallas acquired Brandin Cooks from Houston Texans for 2023 5th round pick (161st overall subsequently traded, Nick Hampton) and 2024 6th round pick (200th overall subsequently traded, Jaden Crumedy). Dallas receives a slight edge because the Cowboys gained the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

Dallas acquired Stephon Gilmore from Indianapolis Colts for 2023 5th round pick (176th overall, Evan Hull). The deal grades toward Dallas because the incoming side carried stronger durable value, better draft conversion, or more meaningful roster impact than the outgoing package.

Las Vegas Raiders received 2023 3rd round pick (100th overall, Tre Tucker) in the transaction with New York Giants, with Darren Waller leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split leans to the Raiders on long-term football value. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Tampa Bay acquired 2023 6th round pick (179th overall subsequently t Houston Texans gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Atlanta acquired Jonnu Smith from New England Patriots for 2023 7th round pick (245th overall, Isaiah Bolden). Atlanta acquired Jonnu Smith for a late-round pick and received useful offensive production

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams traded Jalen Ramsey to Dolphins for Hunter Long and a 3rd (Byron Young). Balanced in hindsight. Rams shed salary and landed starting edge Byron Young, while Dolphins got two high-level seasons from Ramsey. Not a clear win for either side.

Bryce Young has started 48 games through 2025, showing flashes but posting a 17-31 record with uneven efficiency

New York Jets acquired Chuck Clark from Baltimore Ravens for 2024 7th round pick (228th overall, Nick Samac). Jets-positive hindsight result; the acquired value beat the outgoing package without reaching franchise-changing territory.

Denver sent premium draft compensation to New Orleans for the right to hire Sean Payton. Payton gave the Broncos an accomplished Super Bowl-winning coach to reset the program, but New Orleans converted a former coach's rights into first- and second-round value. The Saints hold the cleaner asset win, while Denver's final grade remains tied to the long-term coaching outcome.

New York acquired 2023 3rd round pick (73rd overall, Jalin Hyatt) from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for 2023 3rd round pick (89th overall, Kobie Turner) and 2023 4th round pick (128th overall, Stetson Bennett).

New York acquired 2023 1st round pick (24th overall, Deonte Banks) from Jacksonville Jaguars for 2023 1st round pick (25th overall subsequently traded, Dalton Kincaid), 2023 5th round pick (160th overall, Antonio Johnson) and 2023 7th round pick (240th overall, Derek Parish).

Atlanta acquired 2023 7th round pick (245th overall subsequently traded, Isaiah Bolden) from Buffalo Bills for Dean Marlowe

Atlanta acquired Rashad Fenton from Kansas City Chiefs for a conditional 2023 pick (7th round; not conveyed). Atlanta took a low-cost short-term swing on Rashad Fenton, but the conditional value was minimal and the impact limited

Buffalo acquired Nyheim Hines from Indianapolis Colts for Zack Moss and 2023 5th round pick (162nd overall, Will Mallory). Buffalo spent draft capital for a player or rights asset. That can be justified by immediate roster need, but the default value curve favors the team receiving the pick unless the acquired player clearly changed Buffalo’s trajectory

Denver traded Bradley Chubb to Miami for a first-round-centered package, cashing out a talented edge rusher before a major contract decision. The Broncos made a disciplined roster-value move by converting Chubb into premium capital instead of carrying the full long-term risk of a major extension. Miami acquired a real pass-rush piece, but injuries and contract cost made the Dolphins’ side riskier. Denver’s return also became part of the broader Sean Payton compensation chain, giving the trade additional franchise-building significance

Denver acquired Jacob Martin and 2024 5th round pick (145th overall, Kris Abrams-Draine) from New York Jets for 2024 4th round pick (113th overall subsequently traded, Devontez Walker). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Jacksonville acquired WR Calvin Ridley from Atlanta (while Ridley was suspended for the entire 2022 season) for a 2023 5th-round pick and a conditional 2024 3rd-round pick. Jacksonville gambled on Ridley's return from suspension. He played one solid season in 2023 (1,016 yards), then departed in free agency. Paying a 3rd and 5th for one productive season and then losing the player for nothing is a poor long-term return. Atlanta received picks for a player they effectively had to move. The trade is better characterized as a slight Atlanta win — they sold high on a suspended player and got draft capital. Jacksonville's grade was too generous in hindsight; the grade cards reflect the revision. Atlanta sold high on a suspended star; Jacksonville's one-year rental ultimately cost a third-round-level return for limited long-term value

Miami acquired Jeff Wilson from 49ers for 2023 5th round pick (155th overall, Darrell Luter). The original C- already leaned against Miami, and the second pass treats that slight disadvantage as a narrow loss rather than leaving it buried as an Even. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

Minnesota paid meaningful picks but acquired a top tight end in his prime who immediately upgraded the offense

Pittsburgh traded Chase Claypool to Chicago for a 2023 second-round pick that became Joey Porter Jr. Claypool did not become the Bears contributor Chicago needed, while Porter quickly became a promising cornerback for Pittsburgh. The Steelers win this trade decisively.

Pittsburgh acquired William Jackson III and a conditional 2025 pick (7th round; not conveyed) from Washington Redskins/Commanders for a conditional 2025 pick (6th round; not conveyed). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while Washington Redskins/Commanders received comparable value in return

Chicago traded Roquan Smith to Baltimore for Gervon Dexter, Noah Sewell, and A.J. Klein value. The Bears received useful rebuilding assets, but Baltimore landed an elite linebacker who immediately became a core defensive piece. The Ravens win clearly.

Kansas City acquired Kadarius Toney from New York Giants for 2023 3rd round p. New York Giants gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Philadelphia acquired Robert Quinn from Chicago Bears for 2023 4th round pick (133rd overall, Tyler Scott).

The Raiders-Dallas Cowboys exchange brought 2023 6th round pick (204th overall subsequently traded, Jarrick Bernard-Converse) to Las Vegas Raiders and sent out Johnathan Hankins and 2024 7th round pick (233rd overall, Nathan Thomas). On hindsight value, this lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Jacksonville acquired 2023 6th round pick (185th overall, Parker Washington) from New York Jets for James Robinson. Jacksonville extracted a sixth-round pick for a running back who was no longer central to the plan. The Jets took the short-term roster swing

The picks returned Jonathan Mingo and three players who were later flipped, none of whom became Pro Bowlers in Carolina

Carolina received two late-round picks for Robbie Anderson after releasing him mid-game. The sixth was traded; the seventh became Dan Jackson, a special-teams contributor

Atlanta received only a 2024 sixth-round pick for Deion Jones, a two-time Pro Bowl linebacker who had been a franchise cornerstone for six seasons. The sixth-round return reflects Jones's age (28) and his 2022 contract situation, but represents minimal compensation for one of the better linebackers of his generation during his prime Atlanta years

Las Vegas Raiders added Justin Herron and 2024 7th round pick (223rd overall, Trey Taylor) while sending 2024 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Jamal Hill) to New England Patriots. the final grade reflects that the deal lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Minnesota received Jalen Reagor and sent 2023 7th round pick (219th overall subsequently traded, Antoine Green) and 2024 5th round pick (146th overall subsequently traded, Jarvis Brownlee)

Denver acquired 2023 6th round pick (195th overall subsequently traded, A.T. Perry) from Pittsburgh Steelers for Malik Reed and 2023 7th round pick (241st overall, Cory Trice). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Minnesota acquired Ross Blacklock and 2023 7th round pick (219th overall subsequently traded, Antoine Green) from Houston Texans for 2023 6th round pick (201st overall, Jarrett Patterson). The deal grades as balanced. Neither side clearly separated after weighing player value, draft capital, roster impact, and what each team gave up.

Minnesota received a conditional 2025 pick (7th round; not conveyed) and sent Jesse Davis

New Orleans acquired 2023 5th round pick (165th overall subsequently traded, Terell Smith) and 2024 6th round pick (199th overall, Khristian Boyd) from Philadelphia Eagles for C.J. Gardner-Johnson and 2025 7th round pick (223rd overall subsequently traded, Damien Martinez). New Orleans received 2023 5th round pick (165th overall subsequently traded, Terell Smith) and 2024 6th round pick (199th overall, Khristian Boyd) and sent C.J. The standard profile, available production record, and high confidence level supports a conservative grade

Las Vegas Raiders received 2023 7th round pick (220th overall subsequently traded, Zack Kuntz) in the transaction with Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals, with Trayvon Mullen leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Tampa Bay acquired 2023 6th round pick (181st overall; Josh Hayes) f The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Carolina received a fifth-round pick from Tennessee that was later traded, extracting a Day 3 pick for a backup tackle and a late-round asset

Jacksonville acquired 2023 7th round pick (226th overall, Cooper Hodges), 2024 6th round pick (177th overall subsequently traded, Walter Rouse) from Carolina Panthers for Laviska Shenault. Jacksonville converted a roster piece into draft capital. The return was modest, but the move created usable asset value

Philadelphia acquired 2024 6th round pick (182nd overall subsequently traded, Jha'Quan Jackson) from Tennessee Titans for Ugo Amadi and 2024 7th round pick (242nd overall, James Williams).

Jacksonville acquired Cole Van Lanen from Green Bay Packers for 2023 7th round pick (242nd overall, Anthony Johnson). This was a late-round or depth-chart exchange with limited franchise impact. The value difference is small enough to treat as essentially even

Arizona acquired Cody Ford from Buffalo for a 2023 fifth-round pick that was later traded and became K.J. Henry. Buffalo gained draft flexibility, but Arizona received the more immediate roster asset in Ford. The edge is modest, but the Cardinals hold the better practical value.

Minnesota acquired Nick Mullens from Las Vegas/Oakland Raiders for 2024 7th round pick (229th overall, M.J. Devonshire). The value curve favors Minnesota. The Vikings received the stronger or more useful side of the exchange after accounting for draft position, player value, and long-term roster return. Confidence is reduced because part of the record is conditional, lightly documented, recent, or dependent on future pick/player outcomes.

Las Vegas Raiders added a conditional 2024 pick (7th round; not conveyed) while sending Tyree Gillespie to Tennessee Titans. the final grade reflects that the deal stands as a clear Raiders win on the final curve. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Chicago acquired N'Keal Harry from New England Patriots for 2024 7th round pick (231st overall, Jaheim Bell). Hindsight favors the partner based on greater cumulative production and roster impact.

Baker Mayfield started 13 games, threw for 2,242 yards with a 57.8% completion rate, and was cut after one season. Carolina paid almost nothing but received almost nothing in return

Atlanta acquired Bryan Edwards; 2023 7th round pick (224th overall, DeMarcco Hellams) from Las Vegas Raiders for 2023 5th round pick (144th overall subsequently traded, Atonio Mafi). Atlanta's Bryan Edwards flyer cost a fifth-round pick and did not produce meaningful return

The Raiders-New England Patriots exchange brought Jarrett Stidham and 2023 7th round pick (231st overall, Nesta Jade Silvera) to Las Vegas Raiders and sent out 2023 6th round pick (184th overall subsequently traded, Zaire Barnes). On hindsight value, this lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Houston acquired a conditional 2024 pick (7th round; not conveyed) f.

Buffalo acquired 2022 2nd round pick (63rd overall, James Cook) and 2022 6th round pick (209th overall, Luke Tenuta) from Cincinnati Bengals for 2022 2nd round pick (60th overall, Cam Taylor-Britt). Buffalo moved down slightly and still landed James Cook, adding a dynamic long-term offensive contributor while collecting an extra pick. That is strong draft-board management

Buffalo moved up in the 2022 fifth round for Khalil Shakir, while Chicago received Braxton Jones and Trestan Ebner value. Shakir became a useful receiver, and Jones became a starting left tackle. This grades as an even late-round win for both sides.

Brandon Smith started 35 games at linebacker over three seasons. Amare Barno recorded 4.5 sacks over two seasons as a situational rusher

Green Bay acquired 2022 5th round pick (179th overall, Kingsley Enagbare) and 2022 7th round pick (234th overall, Jonathan Ford) from Denver Broncos for 2022 5th round pick (171st overall, Luke Wattenberg). The Packers side produced stronger hindsight value, either through the better player outcome, better draft conversion, or a superior capital return. Green Bay gets the higher grade because the retained value and on-field return outweighed the cost.

Houston acquired 2022 5th round pick (150th overall, Thomas Booker). The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Jacksonville acquired 2022 5th round pick (154th overall, Snoop Conner) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2022 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Malcolm Rodriguez), 2022 6th round pick (198th overall, Grant Calcaterra). Jacksonville converted a roster piece into draft capital. The return was modest, but the move created usable asset value

Jacksonville acquired 2023 4th round pick (121st overall, Ventrell Miller) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for 2022 5th round pick (157th overall, Zyon McCollum), 2022 7th round pick (235th overall subsequently traded, Daniel Hardy). Jacksonville converted a roster piece into draft capital. The return was modest, but the move created usable asset value

The Chargers acquired 2023 6th round pick (200th overall, Scott Matlock) from Chicago Bears for 2022 7th round pick (254th overall, Elijah Hicks) and 2022 7th round pick (255th overall, Trenton Gill). The trade was not a franchise-shifter, but the player-value exchange supports a modest directional verdict.

Minnesota acquired 2022 4th round pick (126th overall subsequently traded, Neil Farrell) and 2022 7th round pick (227th overall, Nick Muse) from Las Vegas/Oakland Raiders for 2022 4th round pick (122nd overall, Zamir White) and 2022 7th round pick (250th overall, Brittain Brown). The updated review gives Las Vegas/Oakland Raiders the cleaner value side. Minnesota's return was thinner after the asset, player, and pick outcomes were weighed against what left the organization.

Minnesota received 2022 4th round pick (118th overall, Akayleb Evans) and sent 2022 5th round pick (156th overall, Jerome Ford) and 2023 4th round pick (126th overall, Isaiah McGuire)

Philadelphia acquired 2022 6th round pick (181st overall, Kyron Johnson) from Detroit Lions for 2022 6th round pick (188th overall, Malcolm Rodriguez) and 2022 7th round pick (237th overall, Chase Lucas).

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2022 5th round pick (164th overall, Kyren Williams) from Las Vegas Raiders for 2022 5th round pick (175th overall, Matthew Butler) and 2022 7th round pick (238th overall, Thayer Munford). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2022 7th round pick (235th overall, Daniel Hardy) and 2022 7th round pick (261st overall, AJ Arcuri) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for 2022 6th round pick (218th overall, Ko Kieft). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Troy Hill from Cleveland Browns for 2023 5th round pick (140th overall, Dorian Thompson-Robinson). Hindsight leans toward Cleveland Browns because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Seattle acquired 2022 5th round pick (158th overall, Tyreke Smith); 2022 7th round pick (233rd overall, Dareke Young) from Kansas City Chiefs on 2022-04-30, sending 2022 5th round pick (145th overall, Darian Kinnard) in return. Seattle's side of this 2022 draft-capital exchange was straightforward: the Seahawks received 2022 5th round pick (158th overall, Tyreke Smith); 2022 7th round pick (233rd overall, Dareke Young) and surrendered 2022 5th round pick (145th overall, Darian Kinnard). The grade reflects the known return, while Kansas City Chiefs's grade accounts for the countervalue. The trade belongs as a minor database entry because its documented impact was real but not franchise-shaping.

Atlanta acquired 2022 2nd round pick (38th overall, Arnold Ebiketie) from New York Giants for 2022 2nd round pick (43rd overall, Wan'Dale Robinson); 2022 4th round pick (114th overall, Dane Belton). Atlanta surrendered more value than it received on paper, so the verdict tilts against the Falcons

Buffalo acquired 2022 2nd round pick (60th overall subsequently traded, Cam Taylor-Britt) and 2022 6th round pick (180th overall, Matt Araiza) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for 2022 2nd round pick (57th overall, Luke Goedeke). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Matt Corral missed his rookie year with a Lisfranc injury and was waived without ever playing a snap

Cleveland acquired 2022 3rd round pick (68th overall, Martin Emerson), 2022 4th round pick (108th overall, Perrion Winfrey) and 2022 4th round pick (124th overall, Cade York) from Houston Texans for 2022 2nd round pick (44th overall, John Metchie). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Denver acquired 2022 5th round pick (179th overall subsequently traded, Kingsley Enagbare) and 2023 3rd round pick (67th overall, Drew Sanders) from Baltimore/Indianapolis Colts in exchange for 2022 3rd round pick (96th overall, Nick Cross). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Houston acquired 2022 3rd round pick (75th overall, Christian Harris. Houston Texans gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Kansas City acquired 2022 2nd round pick (54th overall, Skyy Moore) and 2022. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Minnesota acquired 2022 2nd round pick (53rd overall subsequently traded, Alec Pierce) and 2022 2nd round pick (59th overall, Ed Ingram) from Green Bay Packers for 2022 2nd round pick (34th overall, Christian Watson). The value curve favors Green Bay Packers. Minnesota either surrendered the stronger asset package or failed to generate enough durable return from what came back.

Minnesota acquired 2022 2nd round pick (42nd overall, Andrew Booth) and 2022 4th round pick (122nd overall subsequently traded, Zamir White) from Baltimore/Indianapolis Colts for 2022 2nd round pick (53rd overall, Alec Pierce), 2022 3rd round pick (77th overall, Bernhard Raimann) and 2022 6th round pick (192nd overall, Andrew Ogletree). The value curve favors Minnesota. The Vikings received the stronger or more useful side of the exchange after accounting for draft position, player value, and long-term roster return. Confidence is reduced because part of the record is conditional, lightly documented, recent, or dependent on future pick/player outcomes.

New York Jets acquired 2022 2nd round pick (36th overall, Breece Hall) from New York Giants for 2022 2nd round pick (38th overall subsequently traded, Arnold Ebiketie) and 2022 5th round pick (146th overall, Micah McFadden). slight partner lean after regrade; the outgoing side shows a modest but real value edge rather than a true even.

Oakland/Los Angeles/Las Vegas Raiders received 2022 3rd round pick (90th overall, Dylan Parham) and 2022 5th round pick (169th overall subsequently traded, Ty Chandler) and gave up 2022 3rd round pick (86th overall, Malik Willis). The partner side held the directional advantage in this exchange after hindsight review.

Arizona acquired Marquise Brown and a third (Myjai Sanders) for a first (23rd, Kaiir Elam). Even. Brown flashed as a WR1 in 2022 before injuries and inconsistency, while Elam busted in Buffalo and Sanders washed out quickly. Both teams paid a premium for disappointing returns, resulting in a wash

Buffalo acquired 2022 1st round pick (23rd overall, Kaiir Elam) from Baltimore Ravens for 2022 1st round pick (25th overall, Tyler Linderbaum) and 2022 4th round pick (130th overall, Jordan Stout). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

Jacksonville traded back into Round 1 (from 33rd to 27th overall) to select LB Devin Lloyd, sending Tampa Bay a 2nd (Logan Hall, 33rd), 4th (Cade Otton, 106th), and 6th. Lloyd became a useful starting linebacker but not a dominant force. The package sent — a 2nd and 4th — is a legitimate price to move into the back of Round 1. Tampa Bay received Logan Hall and Cade Otton, both of whom became starters. Both sides received fair value; neither dramatically outperformed. C+/C+ even trade is accurate

Kansas City acquired 2022 1st round pick (21st overall, Trent McDuffie) from. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Minnesota traded far down with a division rival and the return produced little early value, with Lewis Cine failing to become a core player

New Orleans acquired 2022 1st round pick (11th overall, Chris Olave) from Washington Commanders for 2022 1st round pick (16th overall, Jahan Dotson), 2022 3rd round pick (98th overall, Brian Robinson) and 2022 4th round pick (120th overall subsequently traded, Brandon Smith). Chris Olave has provided real receiving value, but the layered 2022 pick cost keeps this from becoming a clean win

The Jets acquired the picks that became Jermaine Johnson and Jeremy Ruckert from Tennessee for picks that became Roger McCreary, Nicholas Petit-Frere, and Kyle Philips. New York landed useful upside, but Tennessee received the deeper realized package. The Titans hold the modest hindsight edge.

Philadelphia acquired 2022 1st round pick (13th overall, Jordan Davis) from Houston Texans for 2022 1st round pick (15th overall, Kenyon Green), 2022 4th round pick (124th overall subsequently traded, Cade York), 2022 5th round pick (162nd overall subsequently traded, Montrell Washington) and 2022 5th round pick (166th overall subsequently traded, Tycen Anderson).

Philadelphia acquired A.J. Brown from Tennessee Titans for 2022 1st round pick (18th overall, Treylon Burks) and 2022 3rd round pick (101st overall subsequently traded, Jeremy Ruckert).

New England acquired 2022 6th round pick (183rd overall, Kevin Harris) and 2022 7th round pick (245th overall, Andrew Stueber) from Houston Texans for 2022 5th round pick (170th overall, Teagan Quitoriano). Even; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

New Orleans acquired 2022 1st round pick (16th overall subsequently traded, Jahan Dotson), 2022 1st round pick (19th overall, Trevor Penning) and 2022 6th round pick (194th overall, Jordan Jackson) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2022 1st round pick (18th overall subsequently traded, Treylon Burks), 2022 3rd round pick (101st overall subsequently traded, Jeremy Ruckert), 2022 7th round pick (237th overall subsequently traded, Chase Lucas), 2023 1st round pick (10th overall subsequently traded, Darnell Wright) and 2024 2nd round pick (50th overall subsequently traded, Mike Sainristil). The 2022 first-round maneuvering produced Trevor Penning at a price that remains difficult to defend given the outgoing premium capital

Miami acquired 2023 3rd round pick (77th overall subsequently traded, Byron Young) from Patriots for DeVante Parker and 2022 5th round pick (158th overall subsequently traded, Tyreke Smith). Even. Both sides exchanged comparable depth pieces with limited long-term impact

Tyreek Hill delivered immediate All-Pro production with multiple 1,700-yard seasons and transformed the offense. The substantial draft cost is balanced against elite receiver output

Atlanta received a third-round pick (DeAngelo Malone) for a 37-year-old quarterback

Buffalo acquired Case Keenum from Cleveland Browns for 2022 7th round pick (246th overall, Dawson Deaton). Buffalo spent draft capital for a player or rights asset. That can be justified by immediate roster need, but the default value curve favors the team receiving the pick unless the acquired player clearly changed Buffalo’s trajectory

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2023 6th round pick (189th overall, Ochaun Mathis) from Tennessee Titans for Robert Woods. This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Cleveland acquired Deshaun Watson and 2024 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, Will Reichard) from Houston Texans for 2022 1st round pick (13th overall subsequently traded, Jordan Davis), 2023 1st round pick (12th overall subsequently traded, Jahmyr Gibbs), 2024 1st round pick (23rd overall subsequently traded, Brian Thomas), 2023 3rd round pick (73rd overall subsequently traded, Jalin Hyatt), 2024 4th round pick (123rd overall, Cade Stover) and 2022 4th round pick (107th overall, Dameon Pierce). Houston received a massive draft haul while Cleveland absorbed a historically expensive and controversial quarterback bet.

Las Vegas Raiders acquired Davante Adams from Green Bay for the picks that became Quay Walker and, after trade movement, Alec Pierce. Adams delivered elite early production, including an All-Pro season in 2022, but the premium-pick cost, massive contract, and later forced exit leave the deal near-even with a slight partner lean

Houston acquired Blake Cashman from New York Jets for 2023 6th round. Houston Texans gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Tampa Bay acquired Shaq Mason from New England Patriots for 2022 5th New England Patriots gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Dallas acquired 2022 6th round pick (193rd overall, Devin Harper) and 2022 5th round pick (155th overall, Matt Waletzko) from Cleveland Browns for Amari Cooper and 2022 6th round pick (202nd overall, Michael Woods). The deal strongly favors Cleveland Browns because Dallas surrendered far more durable value than it received.

The Chargers acquired Khalil Mack from Chicago for a 2022 second-round pick that became Jaquan Brisker and a 2023 sixth-round pick. Mack delivered real pass-rush production for Los Angeles, but the Bears moved an expensive veteran contract and landed a young defensive starter. Chicago gets the slight hindsight edge on value and roster timing.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2022 2nd round pick (42nd overall subsequently traded, Andrew Booth), 2022 3rd round pick (73rd overall, Jelani Woods) and 2023 3rd round pick (79th overall, Josh Downs) from Washington Redskins/Commanders for Carson Wentz, 2022 2nd round pick (47th overall, Phidarian Mathis) and 2022 7th round pick (240th overall, Christian Holmes). Hindsight favors the Colts side the edge because the incoming value produced more lasting franchise value than the package surrendered. The grade is still scaled to the trade tier so minor cash or depth moves do not receive exaggerated treatment.

Seattle traded QB Russell Wilson and a 2022 fourth-round pick to Denver for two first-round picks, two second-round picks, a fifth-rounder, QB Drew Lock, TE Noah Fant, and DL Shelby Harris. Wilson's departure ended the most important quarterback era in Seahawks history and launched a rapid roster reset. Denver absorbed the contract and decline risk, then went 11-19 with Wilson before releasing him after two seasons. Seattle used the haul to replenish premium positions, including the picks that helped add Charles Cross and Devon Witherspoon, while avoiding a full teardown. Winner: Seattle Seahawks, significantly.

New York acquired 2022 2nd round pick (38th overall subsequently traded, Arnold Ebiketie) and 2022 5th round pick (146th overall, Micah McFadden) from New York Jets for 2022 2nd round pick (36th overall, Breece Hall).

New York acquired 2022 2nd round pick (43rd overall, Wan'Dale Robinson) and 2022 4th round pick (114th overall, Dane Belton) from Atlanta Falcons for 2022 2nd round pick (38th overall, Arnold Ebiketie).

Denver traded Von Miller to the Rams for second- and third-round picks, ending the franchise icon's Broncos tenure while adding meaningful draft capital. A disciplined move by a franchise recognizing a championship window had closed. Miller delivered a Super Bowl for the Rams, making their side look elite in hindsight. Denver's return — a second and third — was fair market value at the time, and the Broncos moved on without absorbing a large contract extension

Pittsburgh acquired 2022 6th round pick (208th overall, Connor Heyward) from Kansas City Chiefs for Melvin Ingram. The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while Kansas City Chiefs received comparable value in return

San Francisco acquired Charles Omenihu from Houston for a 2023 sixth-round pick. Omenihu became a useful defensive-line contributor, making this a strong value win for the 49ers.

New Orleans acquired Mark Ingram from Houston Texans for 2024 7th round pick (238th overall, Solomon Byrd). Mark Ingram's return was sentimental and cheap enough to avoid a loss, but the football value was modest

Philadelphia acquired 2022 6th round pick (206th overall subsequently traded, Matt Henningsen) from New York Jets for Joe Flacco.

Denver acquired Kenny Young and 2024 7th round pick (239th overall subsequently traded, Josiah Ezirim) from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for 2024 6th round pick (189th overall subsequently traded, Mekhi Wingo). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Minnesota received 2022 7th round pick (250th overall subsequently traded, Brittain Brown) and sent Stephen Weatherly and 2023 7th round pick (241st overall subsequently traded, Cory Trice)

Philadelphia acquired Tay Gowan and 2022 5th round pick (166th overall subsequently traded, Tycen Anderson) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for Zach Ertz.

Stephon Gilmore played eight games in 2021, recording two interceptions and stabilizing a secondary hit by injuries

Miami acquired 2023 6th round pick (178th overall subsequently traded, Eric Scott) from Bears for Jakeem Grant. Miami found an explosive return specialist with a small trade maneuver, creating useful late-round value. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Jacksonville traded CB C.J. Henderson — the 9th overall pick in 2020 — and a 5th to Carolina for TE Dan Arnold and a 3rd-round pick (Chad Muma, 70th). Henderson had been a significant bust as a top-10 pick. Jacksonville turned him into a 3rd-round pick and Dan Arnold, who provided tight end depth. Muma became a starting linebacker. This is a well-executed exit from a failed first-round investment. grade is appropriate — the Jaguars salvaged real value from a draft miss

New Orleans acquired Bradley Roby from Houston Texans for 2022 3rd round pick (80th overall subsequently traded, Greg Dulcich) and 2023 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Tanner McKee). New Orleans received Bradley Roby and sent 2022 3rd round pick (80th overall subsequently traded, Greg Dulcich) and 2023 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Tanner McKee). The standard profile, available production record, and medium confidence level supports a conservative grade

Seattle acquired 2023 5th round pick (151st overall, Mike Morris) from Pittsburgh Steelers on 2021-09-03, sending Ahkello Witherspoon in return. From a hindsight view, the Seahawks neither created a defining win nor suffered a major loss here. The important public-facing detail is the actual exchange — 2023 5th round pick (151st overall, Mike Morris) for Ahkello Witherspoon — rather than a forced storyline. That makes the row useful for database completeness while keeping it below the major-trade tier.

Minnesota received Chris Herndon and 2022 6th round pick (184th overall, Vederian Lowe) and sent 2022 4th round pick (117th overall, Micheal Clemons)

Denver acquired 2022 5th round pick (145th overall subsequently traded, Darian Kinnard) and a conditional 2022 pick (7th round; not conveyed) from Detroit Lions for Trinity Benson and 2023 6th round pick (183rd overall subsequently traded, JL Skinner). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Denver acquired Jonas Griffith and 2022 7th round pick (250th overall subsequently traded, Brittain Brown) from San Francisco 49ers for 2022 6th round pick (187th overall, Nick Zakelj) and 2023 7th round pick (222nd overall subsequently traded, DeWayne McBride). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Green Bay acquired Corey Bojorquez and 2023 7th round pick (235th overall, Lew Nichols) from Los Angeles Rams for 2023 6th round pick (191st overall subsequently traded, Trey Palmer). Green Bay produced the clearer hindsight value through the better realized asset, cleaner capital conversion, or more useful on-field return.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired Matt Pryor and 2022 7th round pick (240th overall subsequently traded, Christian Holmes) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2022 6th round pick (194th overall subsequently traded, Jordan Jackson). Strict hindsight does not create a decisive winner. The exchange reads as a balanced roster, draft-position, cash, or administrative move, with neither side receiving clearly superior long-term value.

Kansas City acquired 2022 7th round pick (243rd overall, Jaylen Watson) from. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

New York acquired Ben Bredeson, 2022 5th round pick (173rd overall, Marcus McKethan) and 2023 7th round pick (240th overall subsequently traded, Derek Parish) from Baltimore Ravens for 2022 4th round pick (110th overall, Daniel Faalele).

Seattle acquired Sidney Jones from Jacksonville Jaguars on 2021-08-31, sending 2022 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Malcolm Rodriguez) in return. This transaction fits Seattle's broader roster-building record for 2021: targeted asset movement, limited known aftershocks, and no obvious franchise-altering result. The Seahawks' grade is tied to receiving Sidney Jones while parting with 2022 6th round pick (188th overall subsequently traded, Malcolm Rodriguez). Jacksonville Jaguars's side is graded C because the exchange appears roughly balanced from the available record.

Darryl Johnson recorded 3.5 sacks over three seasons as a situational edge rusher and special-teams contributor

Cincinnati acquired B.J. Hill and 2022 7th round pick (226th overall subsequently traded, Ja'Tyre Carter) from New York Giants for Billy Price. The Bengals turned Billy Price into B.J. Hill and a pick, a major roster win for a former first-round miss. Hill, a major defensive-line contributor, while moving on from Billy Price and also gaining late draft capital

Houston acquired 2022 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Doug Kramer) from New York Jets for Shaq Lawson.

Jacksonville acquired 2022 6th round pick (197th overall, Gregory Junior) from Philadelphia Eagles for Gardner Minshew. Jacksonville received a late pick for a useful backup quarterback. Philadelphia got more practical value from the player than the pick cost suggested

Miami acquired Greg Mancz and 2022 7th round pick (224th overall, Cameron Goode) from Ravens for 2022 6th round pick (196th overall, Tyler Badie). The move up for Liam Eichenberg cost meaningful capital and did not produce the level of line play Miami needed. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

Ryan Santoso won a roster spot and played eight games as a kicker for Carolina in 2021, hitting 9 of 11 field goals

Cade Mays appeared in 14 games as a backup lineman before being waived, providing depth but little impact

New England acquired Shaun Wade from Baltimore Ravens for 2022 7th round pick (224th overall subsequently traded, Cameron Goode) and 2023 5th round pick (148th overall subsequently traded, Noah Sewell). Lean; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Sony Michel from New England Patriots for 2023 4th round pick (107th overall, Jake Andrews) and 2022 6th round pick (210th overall, Chasen Hines). Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired value, role, or draft outcome carried more weight than the outgoing package.

Seattle acquired John Reid from Houston Texans on 2021-08-24, sending a conditional 2023 pick (7th round; not conveyed) in return. The value case for Seattle comes down to the direct asset exchange: John Reid for a conditional 2023 pick (7th round; not conveyed). There is no clear evidence of a major downstream swing, so the grade stays modest rather than inflated. For TradeVerdicts, this row matters because it preserves the transaction trail without overstating the long-term Seahawks impact.

Green Bay acquired 2022 7th round pick (228th overall, Tariq Carpenter) from Houston Texans for Ka'dar Hollman. The available record points to a balanced exchange, administrative move, or low-leverage transaction without a clear long-term winner. Both sides receive comparable grades.

Miami acquired Greg Little from Panthers for 2022 7th round pick (242nd overall, Kalon Barnes). The original C- already leaned against Miami, and the second pass treats that slight disadvantage as a narrow loss rather than leaving it buried as an Even. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

New York acquired Keion Crossen from Houston Texans for 2023 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, Amari Burney).

Pittsburgh acquired Joe Schobert from Jacksonville Jaguars for 2022 6th round pick (198th overall subsequently traded, Grant Calcaterra). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while Jacksonville Jaguars received comparable value in return

Green Bay acquired Randall Cobb from Houston Texans for 2022 6th round pick (205th overall, Austin Deculus). The Packers side produced stronger hindsight value, either through the better player outcome, better draft conversion, or a superior capital return. Green Bay gets the higher grade because the retained value and on-field return outweighed the cost.

Chicago acquired 2022 5th round pick (148th overall subsequently traded, Khalil Shakir) from Houston Texans for Anthony Miller and 2022 7th round pick (228th overall subsequently traded, Tariq Carpenter). Both sides received roughly equivalent value when weighing production and cost.

Atlanta received a 2022 second-rounder (LB Troy Andersen) and a 2023 fourth-rounder for an aging star with a massive contract

Jacksonville acquired Jameson Houston, 2023 6th round pick (208th overall, Erick Hallett) from Philadelphia Eagles for Josiah Scott. This was a late-round or depth-chart exchange with limited franchise impact. The value difference is small enough to treat as essentially even

Minnesota acquired 2022 6th round pick (191st overall, Jalen Nailor) from Kansas City Chiefs for Mike Hughes and 2022 7th round pick (233rd overall subsequently traded, Dareke Young). The updated review gives Minnesota the cleaner value side. The Vikings either extracted useful roster return, recovered usable draft capital, or avoided the heavier long-term cost in a close exchange.

Arizona traded Tay Gowan and a 2022 fifth-round pick to Philadelphia for Zach Ertz. Cardinals Win. Ertz became a useful receiving tight end and helped stabilize the offense, while the surrendered assets were modest. Outcome note: Arizona got immediate offensive utility for a low-to-mid-level price

Buffalo acquired 2021 6th round pick (203rd overall, Marquez Stevenson) and 2021 6th round pick (212th overall, Damar Hamlin) from Kansas City Chiefs for 2021 5th round pick (174th overall subsequently traded, Earnest Brown). Buffalo moved down and still added Marquez Stevenson plus the pick used on Damar Hamlin. For a modest fifth-round slide, the extra value made the Bills side stronger

Chuba Hubbard rushed for 1,408 yards over four seasons as the team's primary back after Christian McCaffrey's departure. Keith Taylor and Phil Hoskins added depth on special teams and defense

Cleveland acquired 2021 5th round pick (153rd overall, Tony Fields) and 2022 4th round pick (107th overall subsequently traded, Dameon Pierce) from Detroit Lions for 2021 4th round pick (113th overall, Derrick Barnes) and 2021 7th round pick (257th overall, Jermar Jefferson). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Houston acquired 2021 5th round pick (174th overall subsequently tra. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

Indianapolis Colts acquired 2021 6th round pick (218th overall, Sam Ehlinger) and 2021 7th round pick (229th overall, Mike Strachan) from New Orleans Saints for 2021 6th round pick (206th overall, Landon Young). Re-audit moved this off pure even. Hindsight favors the Colts side a real but tier-scaled edge because the incoming package proved more useful than the assets surrendered.

Kansas City acquired 2021 5th round pick (162nd overall, Noah Gray) and 2021. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Miami acquired 2022 4th round pick (125th overall, Erik Ezukanma) from Steelers for 2021 5th round pick (156th overall, Isaiahh Loudermilk). Miami paid a steep price to move back up for Jaylen Waddle, but Waddle became an explosive core receiver and justified much of the investment. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

Las Vegas Raiders received 2021 4th round pick (143rd overall, Tyree Gillespie) in the transaction with New York Jets, with 2021 5th round pick (162nd overall subsequently traded, Noah Gray) and 2021 6th round pick (200th overall, Brandin Ec. leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2021 4th round pick (130th overall, Robert Rochell), 2021 5th round pick (170th overall subsequently traded, Garret Wallow) and 2021 7th round pick (249th overall, Ben Skowronek) from Jacksonville Jaguars for 2021 4th round pick (121st overall, Jordan Smith) and 2021 6th round pick (209th overall, Jalen Camp). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2021 5th round pick (174th overall, Earnest Brown) and 2021 7th round pick (233rd overall, Jake Funk) from Houston Texans for 2021 5th round pick (170th overall, Garret Wallow). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Seattle acquired 2021 4th round pick (137th overall, Tre Brown); 2021 6th round pick (217th overall subsequently traded, Khalil Herbert) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers on 2021-05-01, sending 2021 4th round pick (129th overall, Jaelon Darden) in return. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired 2021 4th round pick (137th overall, Tre Brown); 2021 6th round pick (217th overall subsequently traded, Khalil Herbert) and gave up 2021 4th round pick (129th overall, Jaelon Darden), with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Seattle acquired 2021 6th round pick (208th overall, Stone Forsythe) from Chicago Bears on 2021-05-01, sending 2021 6th round pick (217th overall, Khalil Herbert); 2021 7th round pick (250th overall, Khyiris Tonga) in return. Seattle's side of this 2021 draft-capital exchange was straightforward: the Seahawks received 2021 6th round pick (208th overall, Stone Forsythe) and surrendered 2021 6th round pick (217th overall, Khalil Herbert); 2021 7th round pick (250th overall, Khyiris Tonga). The grade reflects the known return, while Chicago Bears's grade accounts for the countervalue. The trade belongs as a minor database entry because its documented impact was real but not franchise-shaping.

Washington acquired 2021 6th round pick (225th overall, Camaron Cheeseman) and 2021 7th round pick (240th overall, William Bradley-King) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2022 5th round pick (154th overall subsequently traded, Snoop Conner). The asset path gave Washington the stronger return, with the stronger side reflected in the grade cards.

Tommy Tremble started 32 games at fullback/tight end over three seasons. Shi Smith contributed on special teams. The second-round pick was traded and eventually connected to Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah

Carolina moved through the 2021 draft and landed Terrace Marshall value, but Cleveland's side produced Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah and stronger downstream value. The Browns win the trade.

Brady Christensen started 20 games at tackle for Carolina before being released Philadelphia Eagles gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Daviyon Nixon played three seasons as a rotational defensive tackle, recording 8 sacks. The other picks were flipped for future capital

Cincinnati acquired 2021 2nd round pick (46th overall, Jackson Carman), 2021 4th round pick (122nd overall, Tyler Shelvin) and 2021 4th round pick (139th overall, D'Ante Smith) from New England Patriots for 2021 2nd round pick (38th overall, Christian Barmore). Cincinnati traded away the Christian Barmore slot and did not get enough from the extra picks. note: downgraded the Jackson Carman/Christian Barmore maneuver because Barmore became the more valuable player and Cincinnati’s larger return did not offset missing him

Denver traded up with Atlanta for Javonte Williams, paying a mid-round premium to target a physical running back. Williams flashed legitimate starting ability before injuries complicated the long-term grade. The process was aggressive for a running back, but the player was talented enough to keep the grade positive

Denver acquired 2021 3rd round pick (76th overall subsequently traded, Paulson Adebo) and 2021 5th round pick (164th overall, Jamar Johnson) from New York Giants in exchange for 2021 3rd round pick (71st overall, Aaron Robinson). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Denver moved down with New Orleans in 2021 and still landed Quinn Meinerz, adding another third-round pick in the process. The deal aged well because Meinerz developed into a high-end interior lineman. Denver combined value trading with a real hit at the selected spot

Green Bay acquired 2021 3rd round pick (85th overall, Amari Rodgers) from Tennessee Titans for 2021 3rd round pick (92nd overall, Monty Rice) and 2021 4th round pick (135th overall, Rashad Weaver). The hindsight value tilted toward Tennessee Titans. Green Bay either surrendered the better long-term asset, paid premium capital for limited return, or failed to turn the incoming value into comparable production.

Miami acquired 2021 2nd round pick (42nd overall, Liam Eichenberg) from Giants for 2021 2nd round pick (50th overall, Azeez Ojulari) and 2022 3rd round pick (81st overall, Cordale Flott). Miami turned the No. 3 pick into a future-heavy package from San Francisco and avoided the Trey Lance miss, creating enormous surplus value. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

Las Vegas Raiders received 2021 2nd round pick (43rd overall, Tre'von Moehrig) and 2021 7th round pick (230th overall, Jimmy Morrissey) from San Francisco 49ers for 2021 2nd round pick (48th overall, Aaron Banks) and 2021 4th round pick (121st overall subsequently traded, Jordan Smith). This grades as D+ for the Raiders because the package sent away carried substantially more hindsight value than the return

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2021 4th round pick (117th overall, Bobby Brown) and 2021 4th round pick (121st overall subsequently traded, Jordan Smith) from San Francisco 49ers for 2021 3rd round pick (88th overall, Trey Sermon). Hindsight leans toward San Francisco 49ers because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Chicago acquired 2021 1st round pick (11th overall, Justin Fields) from New York Giants for 2021 1st round pick (20th overall, Kadarius Toney), 2021 5th round pick (164th overall subsequently traded, Jamar Johnson), 2022 1st round pick (7th overall, Evan Neal) and 2022 4th round pick (112th overall, Daniel Bellinger). Hindsight favors the partner based on greater cumulative production and roster impact.

Dallas acquired 2021 1st round pick (12th overall, Micah Parsons) and 2021 3rd round pick (84th overall, Chauncey Golston) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2021 1st round pick (10th overall, DeVonta Smith). The deal strongly favors Dallas because the incoming value became a major roster, draft, or franchise-building advantage compared with the outgoing package.

Minnesota traded down and still landed Christian Darrisaw, a premium left tackle, though the added picks largely disappointed

Denver acquired Teddy Bridgewater from Carolina for a sixth-round pick, adding a veteran quarterback option at a low acquisition cost. The move did not solve the long-term quarterback problem, but it was inexpensive and gave the Broncos a credible bridge starter. The grade is modestly positive because the price was low

Kansas City acquired Orlando Brown Jr., 2021 2nd round pick (58th overall, Ni. Kansas City Chiefs gets the verdict based on the stronger recorded return.

Washington acquired Ereck Flowers and 2021 7th round pick (258th overall, Dax Milne) from Miami Dolphins for 2021 7th round pick (244th overall, Gerrid Doaks). The asset path gave Washington the stronger return, with the stronger side reflected in the grade cards.

Sam Darnold started 13 games in 2021 with a 4-7 record, posting a 67.8 passer rating before Ben McAdoo's offense stalled. He was released the following year without a second start in Carolina

Miami acquired 2021 1st round pick (12th overall subsequently traded, Micah Parsons), 2022 1st round pick (29th overall subsequently traded, Cole Strange), 2023 1st round pick (29th overall subsequently traded, Bryan Bresee) and 2022 3rd round pick (102nd overall, Channing Tindall) from 49ers for 2021 1st round pick (3rd overall, Trey Lance). Miami added quantity and flexibility, a sensible process win unless the outgoing asset became clearly superior. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Miami acquired 2021 1st round pick (6th overall, Jaylen Waddle) and 2021 5th round pick (156th overall subsequently traded, Isaiahh Loudermilk) from Eagles for 2021 1st round pick (12th overall subsequently traded, Micah Parsons), 2021 4th round pick (123rd overall, Zech McPhearson) and 2022 1st round pick (15th overall subsequently traded, Kenyon Green). This future-dated trade should remain provisional until the acquired pick package and Waddle's post-trade value have meaningful NFL outcomes. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Minnesota acquired Mason Cole from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2021 6th round pick (223rd overall, Tay Gowan). The updated review gives Minnesota the cleaner value side. The Vikings got immediate interior-line utility for a late pick, making the practical roster return stronger than the outgoing asset.

Cincinnati acquired 2021 6th round pick (202nd overall, Chris Evans) from Houston Texans for Ryan Finley and 2021 7th round pick (233rd overall subsequently traded, Jake Funk). Cincinnati modestly improved draft position and landed a useful depth back

Jacksonville acquired 2022 7th round pick (235th overall subsequently traded, Daniel Hardy) from Baltimore Ravens for Josh Oliver. Jacksonville converted a roster piece into draft capital. The return was modest, but the move created usable asset value

New England acquired 2022 7th round pick (224th overall subsequently traded, Cameron Goode) from Houston Texans for Ryan Izzo. Patriots Lean; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Matthew Stafford from Detroit Lions for Jared Goff, 2021 3rd round pick (101st overall, Ifeatu Melifonwu), 2022 1st round pick (32nd overall subsequently traded, Lewis Cine) and 2023 1st round pick (6th overall subsequently traded, Paris Johnson). Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired value, role, or draft outcome carried more weight than the outgoing package.

Seattle acquired Gabe Jackson from Las Vegas Raiders on 2021-03-18, sending 2021 5th round pick (167th overall, Nate Hobbs) in return. From a hindsight view, the Seahawks neither created a defining win nor suffered a major loss here. The important public-facing detail is the actual exchange — Gabe Jackson for 2021 5th round pick (167th overall, Nate Hobbs) — rather than a forced storyline. That makes the row useful for database completeness while keeping it below the major-trade tier.

Atlanta acquired Lee Smith from Buffalo Bills for 2022 7th round pick (231st overall, Baylon Spector)

Detroit acquired Michael Brockers from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for 2023 7th round pick (235th overall subsequently traded, Lew Nichols). The partner side holds a modest edge. Detroit received usable value, but the better realized production or draft conversion landed with Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams.

Indianapolis Colts acquired Carson Wentz from Philadelphia Eagles for 2021 third-round pick and 2022 conditional first-round pick. One-year rental that cost a playoff berth. Eagles clearly won the value exchange.

Jacksonville acquired Malcom Brown from New Orleans Saints for 2021 7th round pick (229th overall subsequently traded, Mike Strachan). This was a late-round or depth-chart exchange with limited franchise impact. The value difference is small enough to treat as essentially even

Miami acquired Isaiah Wilson and 2022 7th round pick (247th overall, Skylar Thompson) from Titans for 2021 7th round pick (232nd overall subsequently traded, Phil Hoskins). Miami took a low-cost swing on Wilson, but the reclamation never materialized. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Miami acquired Benardrick McKinney and 2021 7th round pick (231st overall, Larnel Coleman) from Texans for 2021 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, Marquez Stevenson) and Shaq Lawson. Even. Both sides exchanged comparable depth pieces with limited long-term impact

New England acquired 2021 4th round pick (122nd overall subsequently traded, Tyler Shelvin) and 2021 6th round pick (188th overall, Joshuah Bledsoe) from Houston Texans for Marcus Cannon, 2021 5th round pick (158th overall subsequently traded, Daviyon Nixon) and 2021 6th round pick (195th overall, Roy Lopez). Even; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

The Raiders-New England Patriots exchange brought 2022 5th round pick (164th overall subsequently traded, Kyren Williams) to Las Vegas Raiders and sent out Trent Brown and 2022 7th round pick (243rd overall subsequently traded, Jaylen Watson). On hindsight value, this lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Las Vegas Raiders received 2021 3rd round pick (79th overall, Malcolm Koonce) in the transaction with Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals, with Rodney Hudson and 2021 7th round pick (247th overall, Michal Menet) leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split stands as a clear Raiders win on the final curve. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

New York acquired 2021 2nd round pick (50th overall, Azeez Ojulari) and 2022 3rd round pick (81st overall, Cordale Flott) from Miami Dolphins for 2021 2nd round pick (42nd overall, Liam Eichenberg).

New York acquired 2021 3rd round pick (71st overall, Aaron Robinson) from Denver Broncos for 2021 3rd round pick (76th overall subsequently traded, Paulson Adebo) and 2021 5th round pick (164th overall, Jamar Johnson).

New York traded 2021 #11 (Justin Fields) to Chicago for #20 (Kadarius Toney), a 2021 5th, 2022 #7 (Evan Neal) and 2022 4th (Daniel Bellinger). Fields struggled in Chicago, while Toney and Neal underwhelmed in New York, making the massive pick swap essentially a wash with both teams missing on premium talent. The standard designation reflects the available asset quality, career impact, and certainty of the historical record.

Miami acquired DeAndre Washington and 2021 7th round pick (258th overall subsequently traded, Dax Milne) from Chiefs for 2021 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Jonathan Marshall). Even. Both sides exchanged comparable depth pieces with limited long-term impact

Miami acquired 2022 6th round pick (200th overall subsequently traded, Sam Roberts) from Patriots for Isaiah Ford. Miami added quantity and flexibility, a sensible process win unless the outgoing asset became clearly superior. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

The Chargers acquired 2021 6th round pick (185th overall, Nick Niemann) from Tennessee Titans for Desmond King. The trade grades against the Chargers because the outgoing side carried more durable value, stronger draft upside, or a better long-term return for Tennessee Titans.

Pittsburgh acquired Avery Williamson and 2022 7th round pick (225th overall, Mark Robinson) from New York Jets for 2022 5th round pick (163rd overall subsequently traded, Kyle Philips). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while New York Jets received comparable value in return

San Francisco traded Kwon Alexander to New Orleans for Kiko Alonso and a fifth-round pick that became Deommodore Lenoir. The Saints got linebacker help, but Lenoir became the best long-term asset. San Francisco wins the trade.

Dallas acquired Eli Ankou from Houston Texans for 2022 7th round pick (245th overall subsequently traded, Andrew Stueber). Houston Texans receives a slight edge because Dallas gave up the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

Seattle acquired DE Carlos Dunlap from Cincinnati for B.J. Finney and a seventh-round pick, immediately boosting the pass rush. Dunlap arrived during a season when Seattle desperately needed edge pressure and gave the defense a credible closer. The cost was minimal, and his production helped stabilize a unit that had been leaning too heavily on coverage and blitz volume. This is a clean A-grade in-season veteran acquisition: narrow need, low cost, immediate return.

Dallas acquired 2021 6th round pick (192nd overall, Quinton Bohanna) from Detroit Lions for Everson Griffen. Dallas receives a slight edge because the Cowboys gained the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

New York acquired 2021 6th round pick (201st overall, Rodarius Williams) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for Markus Golden.

Minnesota acquired 2021 3rd round pick (90th overall, Patrick Jones) and 2022 5th round pick (156th overall subsequently traded, Jerome Ford) from Baltimore Ravens for Yannick Ngakoue. The value curve favors Baltimore Ravens. Minnesota either surrendered the better asset package or failed to generate enough on-field return from what came back.

The exchange of Jordan Willis and 2021 7th round pick (230th overall subsequently traded, Jimmy Morrissey) for 2022 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Doug Kramer) stayed close enough in realized value to remain a true even verdict

Tampa Bay acquired Steve McLendon; 2023 7th round pick (230th overall subsequently traded; Nick. from New York Jets for 2022 6th round pick (206th overall subsequently traded; Matt Henningsen). The regrade gives Tampa Bay the clearer football value. The Buccaneers either turned modest capital into the better useful return, recovered value from a replaceable asset, or landed the more meaningful player/pick outcome once the full hindsight is applied

Jacksonville acquired Kamalei Correa, 2021 7th round pick (249th overall subsequently traded, Ben Skowronek) from Tennessee Titans for 2021 6th round pick (185th overall subsequently traded, Nick Niemann). This was a late-round or depth-chart exchange with limited franchise impact. The value difference is small enough to treat as essentially even

Miami acquired Lynn Bowden and 2021 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, Marquez Stevenson) from Raiders for 2021 4th round pick (121st overall subsequently traded, Jordan Smith). Miami paid a fourth-round-level asset for a gadget player who did not become a long-term contributor. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Jacksonville acquired 2021 5th round pick (170th overall subsequently traded, Garret Wallow) from Cleveland Browns for Ronnie Harrison. Jacksonville converted a roster piece into draft capital. The return was modest, but the move created usable asset value

Denver acquired 2021 7th round pick (239th overall, Jonathon Cooper) from New York Giants for Isaac Yiadom. Denver converted Isaac Yiadom into draft capital, a practical roster-management decision rather than a franchise-shaping swing. The Broncos grade remains conservative because the return was useful but limited, while New York Giants lands at C based on the player value it acquired

Las Vegas Raiders received 2021 6th round pick (203rd overall subsequently traded, Marquez Stevenson) in the transaction with Football Team, with David Sharpe and 2021 7th round pick (244th overall subsequently traded, Gerrid Doaks) leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Andre Smith played 31 games on defense and special teams for Carolina before being traded to Buffalo. The conditional seventh was never conveyed

Minnesota received Yannick Ngakoue and sent 2021 2nd round pick (45th overall, Walker Little) and 2022 5th round pick (157th overall subsequently traded, Zyon McCollum)

The Raiders-Miami Dolphins exchange brought Raekwon McMillan and 2021 5th round pick (162nd overall subsequently traded, Noah Gray) to Las Vegas Raiders and sent out 2021 4th round pick (121st overall subsequently traded, Jordan Smith). Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Detroit acquired a conditional 2022 pick (7th round; not conveyed) from New England Patriots for Michael Jackson. Detroit comes out slightly ahead on the hindsight curve. The Lions' return offered the better practical roster value, although the margin was not large enough to classify the deal as a runaway win.

Miami acquired Adam Shaheen from Bears for 2021 6th round pick (208th overall subsequently traded, Stone Forsythe). The original C+ already leaned Miami, and the second pass treats that slight edge as a narrow win rather than hiding it inside the Even bucket. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

Seattle surrendered two first-round picks — 2021 #23, later used on OT Christian Darrisaw, and 2022 #10, later used on WR Garrett Wilson — plus a 2021 3rd-rounder and S Bradley McDougald to acquire All-Pro S Jamal Adams from the Jets. Adams had a spectacular 2020 debut but injuries limited him to 34 games across four seasons. The Adams trade created a draft and cap deficit that constrained Seattle for years. Adams delivered a spectacular 2020 pass-rushing season from safety, but the injury run that followed erased most of the value. The picks attached to the deal became the type of young cornerstone talent Seattle badly needed. Winner: New York Jets, decisively.

Miami acquired 2021 7th round pick (232nd overall subsequently traded, Phil Hoskins) from Falcons for Charles Harris. Miami added quantity and flexibility, a sensible process win unless the outgoing asset became clearly superior. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Dallas acquired 2020 4th round pick (146th overall, Tyler Biadasz) from Philadelphia Eagles for 2020 5th round pick (164th overall subsequently traded, Curtis Weaver) and 2021 5th round pick (156th overall subsequently traded, Isaiahh Loudermilk). The deal grades toward Dallas because the incoming side carried stronger durable value, better draft conversion, or more meaningful roster impact than the outgoing package.

Houston acquired 2021 6th round pick (212th overall subsequently traded, Damar Hamlin) from New Orleans Saints for 2020 7th round pick (240th overall, Tommy Stevens).

Indianapolis Colts acquired 2020 6th round pick (212th overall, Dezmon Patmon) and 2020 6th round pick (213th overall, Jordan Glasgow) from New England Patriots for 2020 6th round pick (182nd overall, Michael Onwenu). Re-audit moved this off pure even. New England Patriots gets the edge because the Colts surrendered the stronger or more durable asset package.

Miami acquired 2020 4th round pick (111th overall, Solomon Kindley) from Texans for 2020 4th round pick (136th overall subsequently traded, Brycen Hopkins) and 2020 4th round pick (141st overall, John Reid). The original C+ already leaned Miami, and the second pass treats that slight edge as a narrow win rather than hiding it inside the Even bucket. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

Miami acquired Matt Breida from San Francisco for a 2020 fifth-round pick that became Colton McKivitz. Breida never became a major Dolphins piece, while the 49ers turned a running back into useful draft value. San Francisco wins the trade.

Miami acquired 2020 5th round pick (164th overall, Curtis Weaver) from Eagles for 2020 5th round pick (173rd overall subsequently traded, Darnell Mooney) and 2020 7th round pick (227th overall subsequently traded, Lachavious Simmons). The pick swap did not produce a lasting Dolphins contributor, leaving the result tilted away from Miami. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Minnesota acquired 2020 7th round pick (225th overall, Kenny Willekes) and 2021 5th round pick (168th overall, Zach Davidson) from Baltimore Ravens for 2020 6th round pick (201st overall, James Proche) and 2020 7th round pick (219th overall, Geno Stone). The updated review gives Baltimore Ravens the cleaner value side. Minnesota's return was thinner after the asset, player, and pick outcomes were weighed against what left the organization.

Minnesota received 2021 4th round pick (125th overall, Camryn Bynum) and sent 2020 5th round pick (155th overall, Trevis Gipson)

Jets acquired Quincy Wilson from Indianapolis Colts/Baltimore Colts for 2020 6th round pick (211th overall, Isaiah Rodgers).

Philadelphia acquired 2020 6th round pick (196th overall, Shaun Bradley), 2020 6th round pick (200th overall, Quez Watkins) and 2020 7th round pick (233rd overall, Casey Toohill) from Chicago Bears for 2020 5th round pick (173rd overall, Darnell Mooney) and 2020 7th round pick (227th overall, Lachavious Simmons).

Las Vegas Raiders added 2020 4th round pick (109th overall, John Simpson) while sending 2020 4th round pick (121st overall, Logan Stenberg) and 2020 5th round pick (172nd overall, Jason Huntley) to Detroit Lions. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2020 4th round pick (136th overall, Brycen Hopkins), 2020 7th round pick (248th overall, Sam Sloman) and 2020 7th round pick (250th overall, Tremayne Anchrum) from Houston Texans for 2020 4th round pick (126th overall, Charlie Heck). This grades as close to even or administrative because the exchange was balanced, uncertain, reversed, conditional, or too minor to justify a directional win.

Seattle acquired 2020 7th round pick (251st overall, Stephen Sullivan) from Miami Dolphins on 2020-04-25, sending 2021 6th round pick (208th overall subsequently traded, Stone Forsythe) in return. Seattle's side of this 2020 draft-capital exchange was straightforward: the Seahawks received 2020 7th round pick (251st overall, Stephen Sullivan) and surrendered 2021 6th round pick (208th overall subsequently traded, Stone Forsythe). The grade reflects the known return, while Miami Dolphins's grade accounts for the countervalue. The trade belongs as a minor database entry because its documented impact was real but not franchise-shaping.

San Francisco traded Marquise Goodwin and a seventh-round pick to Philadelphia for the sixth-round pick used on Charlie Woerner. The 49ers received the more useful realized value in a small exchange.

Kansas City Chiefs received 2020 7th round pick (237th overall, Thakarius Keyes) and gave up 2021 6th round pick (215th overall, Brady Breeze).

Washington acquired 2020 5th round pick (156th overall, Keith Ismael) and 2021 3rd round pick (74th overall, Benjamin St-Juste) from San Francisco 49ers for Trent Williams. The cost and downstream value favored the trade partner, leaving Washington on the weaker side of the exchange.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2020 2nd round pick (41st overall, Jonathan Taylor) from Cleveland Browns for 2020 2nd round pick (44th overall, Grant Delpit) and 2020 5th round pick (160th overall, Nick Harris). Hindsight favors the Colts side the edge because the incoming value produced more lasting franchise value than the package surrendered. The grade is still scaled to the trade tier so minor cash or depth moves do not receive exaggerated treatment.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2020 3rd round pick (85th overall, Julian Blackmon), 2020 5th round pick (149th overall, Danny Pinter) and 2020 6th round pick (182nd overall subsequently traded, Michael Onwenu) from Detroit Lions for 2020 3rd round pick (75th overall, Jonah Jackson) and 2020 6th round pick (197th overall, John Penisini). Strict hindsight does not create a decisive winner. The exchange reads as a balanced roster, draft-position, cash, or administrative move, with neither side receiving clearly superior long-term value.

Minnesota received 2020 4th round pick (130th overall, James Lynch), 2020 5th round pick (169th overall, Harrison Hand), 2020 6th round pick (203rd overall, Blake Brandel) and 2020 7th round pick (244th overall, Nate Stanley) and sent 2020 3rd round pick (105th overall, Adam Trautman)

New England acquired 2020 2nd round pick (60th overall, Joshua Uche) and 2020 4th round pick (129th overall subsequently traded, Cameron Clark) from Baltimore Ravens for 2020 3rd round pick (71st overall, Nnamdi Madubuike) and 2020 3rd round pick (98th overall, Malik Harrison). Even; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

New Orleans acquired 2020 3rd round pick (74th overall, Zack Baun) and 2020 7th round pick (244th overall subsequently traded, Nate Stanley) from Cleveland Browns for 2020 3rd round pick (88th overall, Jordan Elliott) and 2021 3rd round pick (91st overall, Anthony Schwartz). New Orleans received 2020 3rd round pick (74th overall, Zack Baun) and 2020 7th round pick (244th overall subsequently traded, Nate Stanley) and sent 2020 3rd round pick (88th overall, Jordan Elliott) and 2021 3rd round pick (91st overall, Anthony Schwartz). The standard profile, available production record, and medium confidence level supports a conservative grade

Jets acquired 2020 4th round pick (125th overall, James Morgan), 2020 4th round pick (129th overall, Cameron Clark) and 2021 6th round pick (186th overall, Hamsah Nasirildeen) from New England Patriots for 2020 3rd round pick (101st overall, Dalton Keene). Depth move with limited long-term impact; historical production on both sides was marginal, supporting an even grade.

Las Vegas Raiders received 2020 3rd round pick (100th overall, Tanner Muse), 2020 4th round pick (139th overall, Amik Robertson) and 2020 5th ro. in the transaction with New England Patriots, with 2020 3rd round pick (91st overall, Devin Asiasi) and 2020 5th round pick (159th overall, Justin Rohrwasser) leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split leans to the Raiders on long-term football value. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Seattle acquired 2020 2nd round pick (48th overall, Darrell Taylor) from New York Jets on 2020-04-24, sending 2020 2nd round pick (59th overall, Denzel Mims); 2020 3rd round pick (101st overall subsequently traded, Dalton Keene) in return. From a hindsight view, the Seahawks neither created a defining win nor suffered a major loss here. The important public-facing detail is the actual exchange — 2020 2nd round pick (48th overall, Darrell Taylor) for 2020 2nd round pick (59th overall, Denzel Mims); 2020 3rd round pick (101st overall subsequently traded, Dalton Keene) — rather than a forced storyline. That makes the row useful for database completeness while keeping it below the major-trade tier.

Seattle acquired 2020 3rd round pick (69th overall, Damien Lewis); 2020 5th round pick (148th overall, Alton Robinson) from Carolina Panthers on 2020-04-24, sending 2020 2nd round pick (64th overall, Jeremy Chinn) in return. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired 2020 3rd round pick (69th overall, Damien Lewis); 2020 5th round pick (148th overall, Alton Robinson) and gave up 2020 2nd round pick (64th overall, Jeremy Chinn), with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

The Chargers acquired 2020 1st round pick (23rd overall, Kenneth Murray) from New England Patriots for 2020 2nd round pick (37th overall, Kyle Dugger) and 2020 3rd round pick (71st overall subsequently traded, Nnamdi Madubuike). The Chargers spent premium capital to move up for Kenneth Murray, who did not justify the cost.

Miami acquired 2020 1st round pick (30th overall, Noah Igbinoghene) and 2020 4th round pick (136th overall subsequently traded, Brycen Hopkins) from Packers for 2020 1st round pick (26th overall, Jordan Love). Miami moved down from Jordan Love territory and landed a corner who did not provide meaningful return. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Minnesota traded down and received three players: Jeff Gladney, D.J. Wonnum, and K.J. Osborn. Wonnum and Osborn became useful contributors, while Gladney’s Vikings tenure ended quickly and he later died tragically. The return had volume, but Minnesota passed on Brandon Aiyuk

San Francisco came out slightly behind in a close exchange, with 2020 1st round pick (13th overall, Tristan Wirfs) and 2020 7th round pick (245th overall, Raymond Calais) carrying a bit more value than 2020 1st round pick (14th overall, Javon Kinlaw) and 2020 4th round pick (117th overall subsequently traded, D.J

Tampa Bay acquired Rob Gronkowski; 2020 7th round pick (241st overal. evidence: Rob Gronkowski became an immediate 2020 championship contributor, giving Tampa Bay premium short-term value for modest draft capital

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2020 2nd round pick (57th overall, Van Jefferson) from Houston Texans for Brandin Cooks and 2022 4th round pick (137th overall subsequently traded, Bailey Zappe). Hindsight favors the Rams side because the acquired value, role, or draft outcome carried more weight than the outgoing package.

Washington acquired Kyle Allen from Carolina Panthers for 2020 5th round pick (148th overall subsequently traded, Alton Robinson). The cost and downstream value favored the trade partner, leaving Washington on the weaker side of the exchange.

Washington acquired 2020 5th round pick (162nd overall, Khaleke Hudson) from Seattle Seahawks for Quinton Dunbar. The asset path gave Washington the stronger return, with the stronger side reflected in the grade cards.

Pittsburgh acquired Chris Wormley and 2021 7th round pick (254th overall, Pressley Harvin) from Baltimore Ravens for 2021 5th round pick (168th overall subsequently traded, Zach Davidson). This 2020 transaction with Baltimore Ravens registered as a roughly balanced exchange. Both clubs addressed their stated roster or draft-board priorities without a clear winner emerging from the historical record. The assets involved were comparable in tier and subsequent career value

Philadelphia acquired Darius Slay from Detroit Lions for 2020 3rd round pick (85th overall subsequently traded, Julian Blackmon) and 2020 5th round pick (166th overall, Quintez Cephus).

Denver acquired Jurrell Casey from Tennessee for a seventh-round pick, buying a decorated defensive lineman at minimal draft cost. The injury outcome limited the payoff, but the acquisition price made the process attractive. It was a smart low-cost upside swing that simply did not fully land

Detroit acquired Duron Harmon and 2020 7th round pick (235th overall, Jashon Cornell) from New England Patriots for 2020 5th round pick (172nd overall subsequently traded, Jason Huntley). Detroit comes out slightly ahead on the hindsight curve. The Lions' return offered the better practical roster value, although the margin was not large enough to classify the deal as a runaway win.

Jacksonville traded QB Nick Foles to Chicago for a 4th-round pick (Shaquille Quarterman, 140th). Foles had been a expensive, disappointing starter in Jacksonville. Getting a 4th-round pick for a failed starter while clearing cap space was a solid outcome. Quarterman played meaningful defensive snaps for Jacksonville. grade is appropriate — Jacksonville cleaned up a roster mistake while recovering usable draft capital

Denver acquired 2021 7th round pick (253rd overall, Marquiss Spencer) from Cleveland Browns for Andy Janovich. Denver converted Andy Janovich into draft capital, a practical roster-management decision rather than a franchise-shaping swing. The Broncos grade remains conservative because the return was useful but limited, while Cleveland Browns lands at C based on the player value it acquired

Arizona acquired DeAndre Hopkins and a fourth-round pick from Houston for David Johnson, a second-round pick, and a future fourth. Cardinals Win. Hopkins immediately gave Arizona elite WR1 production, including a huge 2020 season, while Houston’s return did not come close to matching his impact. Outcome note: even with a shorter peak than hoped, the initial value gap was enormous

Atlanta acquired Hayden Hurst; 2020 4th round pick (143rd overall subsequently traded, Ben Bredeson) from Baltimore Ravens for 2020 2nd round pick (55th overall, J.K. Dobbins); 2020 5th round pick (157th overall subsequently traded, Daniel Thomas). Atlanta used premium draft value on Hayden Hurst and received only modest short-term production

Minnesota turned Diggs into Justin Jefferson and extra picks, a franchise-saving result

Indianapolis acquired DeForest Buckner from San Francisco for a first-round pick tied to the Javon Kinlaw return. Buckner became the proven All-Pro impact player, while San Francisco did not replace his value. The Colts win the trade.

Jacksonville traded DT Calais Campbell — a three-time Pro Bowler at the time — to Baltimore for a 5th-round pick (Daniel Thomas, 157th). Campbell was 33 but had been the best defensive player on the Jaguars for years and was still highly productive. He immediately became a team captain and defensive anchor in Baltimore, earning Pro Bowl honors in 2020. A 5th-round pick for a player of this caliber is egregiously below market value, regardless of age or salary. F is not overstated — this is a salary dump masquerading as a trade, and the football value loss was enormous

Denver acquired A.J. Bouye from Jacksonville Jaguars for 2020 4th round pick (137th overall, Josiah Scott). Denver paid draft capital for A.J. Bouye, making this a targeted personnel acquisition instead of a pure pick shuffle. The Broncos grade reflects the balance between immediate roster help and the opportunity cost of the pick sent to Jacksonville Jaguars

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired 2022 7th round pick (238th overall subsequently traded, Thayer Munford) from Miami Dolphins for Aqib Talib and 2020 5th round pick (173rd overall subsequently traded, Darnell Mooney). Hindsight leans toward Miami Dolphins because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Miami acquired 2020 5th round pick (153rd overall subsequently traded, Colton McKivitz) from Cardinals for Kenyan Drake. The Laremy Tunsil blockbuster gave Miami multiple premium picks and Jevon Holland-level value, one of the franchise’s largest asset wins. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move. Outcome supported by championship impact, awards recognition, and clear superiority over the assets surrendered

New York acquired Leonard Williams from New York Jets for 2020 3rd round pick (68th overall, Ashtyn Davis) and 2021 5th round pick (154th overall, Michael Carter). The standard designation reflects the available asset quality, career impact, and certainty of the historical record.

Philadelphia acquired Genard Avery from Cleveland Browns for 2021 4th round pick (110th overall, James Hudson).

Dallas acquired Michael Bennett from New England Patriots for 2021 6th round pick (195th overall subsequently traded, Roy Lopez). Dallas receives a slight edge because the Cowboys gained the cleaner or more useful side of a modest exchange.

Atlanta flipped Mohamed Sanu (eight games remaining on his deal) for a 2020 second-round pick

Denver traded Emmanuel Sanders and a fifth-round pick to San Francisco for third- and fourth-round picks. The Broncos did well to get Day 2/early Day 3 capital for a veteran receiver in a reset year. San Francisco also benefited from Sanders' immediate role in a Super Bowl push

The Raiders-Houston Texans exchange brought 2020 3rd round pick (91st overall subsequently traded, Devin Asiasi) to Oakland Raiders and sent out Gareon Conley. On hindsight value, this leans to the Raiders on long-term football value; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation-. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Kenny Young and 2020 5th round pick (173rd overall subsequently traded, Darnell Mooney) from Baltimore Ravens for Marcus Peters. Hindsight leans toward Baltimore Ravens because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis Rams acquired Austin Corbett from Cleveland Browns for 2021 5th round pick (169th overall, Richard LeCounte). Hindsight leans toward Cleveland Browns because the outgoing Rams value or the partner's eventual return proved stronger than what Los Angeles/Cleveland/St. Louis kept.

Buffalo acquired 2021 5th round pick (161st overall, Tommy Doyle) from Las Vegas Raiders for Zay Jones. Buffalo converted a player or rights asset into draft capital, which is usually sound portfolio management unless the player became a major contributor elsewhere. Without a clear star outcome attached, the Bills receive a modest value edge for gaining flexible future capital

Atlanta acquired Johnathan Cyprien; 2020 7th round pick (228th overall, Sterling Hofrichter) from Philadelphia Eagles for Duke Riley; 2020 6th round pick (190th overall subsequently traded, Charlie Woerner)

Seattle acquired 2020 5th round pick (162nd overall subsequently traded, Khaleke Hudson) from Pittsburgh Steelers on 2019-09-25, sending Nick Vannett in return. The value case for Seattle comes down to the direct asset exchange: 2020 5th round pick (162nd overall subsequently traded, Khaleke Hudson) for Nick Vannett. There is no clear evidence of a major downstream swing, so the grade stays modest rather than inflated. For TradeVerdicts, this row matters because it preserves the transaction trail without overstating the long-term Seahawks impact.

Oakland Raiders received Trevor Davis in the transaction with Green Bay Packers, with 2020 6th round pick (192nd overall, Jon Runyan) leaving the Raiders side. The grade reflects that the final value split lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade. The surrendered draft-capital component is central to the final grade

Pittsburgh acquired All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick from Miami mid-season in exchange for a first-round pick and two other picks. Fitzpatrick transformed Pittsburgh's secondary and made multiple Pro Bowls. Fitzpatrick was arguably the NFL's best safety in 2019 and continued to be one of Pittsburgh's most impactful defenders for years. Miami's #18 pick became Austin Jackson, who contributed modestly. The 2020 fifth and 2021 sixth added minimal value for Miami. Pittsburgh essentially acquired a perennial All-Pro for the equivalent of a single first-round pick in a weak draft class — outstanding value. Upgrading from A- to A

Jets acquired Demaryius Thomas from New England Patriots for 2021 6th round pick (186th overall subsequently traded, Hamsah Nasirildeen). Depth move with limited long-term impact; historical production on both sides was marginal, supporting an even grade.

Pittsburgh acquired 2020 5th round pick (154th overall subsequently traded, Jason Strowbridge) from Jacksonville Jaguars for Joshua Dobbs. The trade grades against Pittsburgh because the outgoing side carried more durable value, stronger draft upside, or a better long-term return for Jacksonville Jaguars

New York acquired a conditional 2020 pick (7th-round; not conveyed) from Green Bay Packers for B.J. Goodson and a conditional 2020 pick (7th-round; not conveyed).

Laremy Tunsil became a multi-time Pro Bowl left tackle. The acquisition cost was modest relative to his talent, while the later trade generated premium draft capital that helped reshape the roster

Seattle acquired DE Jadeveon Clowney from Houston for Jacob Martin, Barkevious Mingo, and a 2020 3rd-round pick. Clowney was a short-term rental, but Seattle paid a modest package for a former #1 overall pick and three-time Pro Bowler at a premium defensive position. Houston had little leverage, and Seattle exploited it. Clowney was not a long-term Seahawk, but the cost was light for a former #1 overall pick who still affected games when healthy. The deal was a reasonable win-now swing even though it did not create sustained value. Winner: Seattle Seahawks on price, with short-term-only value.

Cleveland acquired Taywan Taylor from Titans for 2020 7th round pick (224th overall, Cole McDonald). Cleveland spent draft capital for a player without enough hindsight evidence for a stronger win.

Cleveland acquired Jordan McCray and 2020 7th round pick (244th overall subsequently traded, Nate Stanley) from Green Bay Packers for 2020 7th round pick (236th overall, Vernon Scott). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Miami acquired Evan Boehm and 2020 7th round pick (227th overall subsequently traded, Lachavious Simmons) from Colts for 2020 6th round pick (197th overall subsequently traded, John Penisini). Josh Rosen failed to become Miami’s quarterback answer, making the second-round investment a major miss. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

Minnesota acquired Mark Fields from Kansas City Chiefs for a conditional 2021 pick (7th-round; not conveyed). The deal grades as balanced. Neither side clearly separated after weighing the assets, draft slots, player outcomes, and the transaction context. Confidence is reduced because part of the record is conditional, lightly documented, recent, or dependent on future pick/player outcomes.

New England acquired 2020 6th round pick (204th overall, Cassh Maluia) from Houston Texans for Keion Crossen. Patriots Lean; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

Pittsburgh acquired 2021 6th round pick (216th overall, Quincy Roche) from Tampa Bay Buccaneers for Jerald Hawkins and 2021 7th round pick (251st overall, Chris Wilcox). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while Tampa Bay Buccaneers received comparable value in return

Seattle acquired Parry Nickerson from New York Jets on 2019-08-31, sending a conditional 2021 pick (7th-round; not conveyed) in return. The trade is best understood as a narrow roster or draft-position move. Seattle acquired Parry Nickerson and gave up a conditional 2021 pick (7th-round; not conveyed), with the available evidence supporting a grade rather than a stronger verdict. It should remain in the public database, but the analysis should not pretend it changed the arc of Seahawks history.

Buffalo acquired 2020 6th round pick (207th overall, Isaiah Hodgins) from New England Patriots for Russell Bodine. Buffalo converted a player or rights asset into draft capital, which is usually sound portfolio management unless the player became a major contributor elsewhere. Without a clear star outcome attached, the Bills receive a modest value edge for gaining flexible future capital

Cleveland acquired 2022 7th round pick (223rd overall, Isaiah Thomas) from Detroit Lions for David Blough and 2022 7th round pick (234th overall subsequently traded, Jonathan Ford). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Denver acquired Duke Dawson and 2020 7th round pick (237th overall subsequently traded, Thakarius Keyes) from New England Patriots for 2020 6th round pick (195th overall, Justin Herron). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Miami acquired Danny Isidora from Vikings for 2020 7th round pick (219th overall subsequently traded, Geno Stone). Second-pass grading moved this from C- to B because the deal now reads as a favorable Dolphins result rather than a neutral exchange. The 2020 second-rounder eventually became Raekwon Davis, giving Miami a stronger return than a simple 2019 trade-down suggested. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move.

Buffalo acquired 2020 5th round pick (155th overall subsequently traded, Trevis Gipson) and 2020 6th round pick (188th overall, Tyler Bass) from Cleveland Browns for Wyatt Teller and 2021 7th round pick (257th overall subsequently traded, Jermar Jefferson). Buffalo moved Wyatt Teller before he developed into an elite guard in Cleveland. Tyler Bass softened the return through the related pick value, but the player outcome makes this a painful miss

Green Bay acquired 2020 6th round pick (208th overall, Jake Hanson) from Tennessee Titans for Reggie Gilbert. The Packers side produced stronger hindsight value, either through the better player outcome, better draft conversion, or a superior capital return. Green Bay gets the higher grade because the retained value and on-field return outweighed the cost.

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired a conditional 2020 pick (6th-round; not conveyed) from New York Jets for Nate Hairston. Strict hindsight does not create a decisive winner. The exchange reads as a balanced roster, draft-position, cash, or administrative move, with neither side receiving clearly superior long-term value.

New England acquired Jermaine Eluemunor and 2020 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Isaiah Hodgins) from Baltimore Ravens for 2020 4th round pick (129th overall subsequently traded, Cameron Clark). Even; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

New England acquired Korey Cunningham from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for 2020 6th round pick (202nd overall, Evan Weaver). Lean; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

Minnesota acquired Kaare Vedvik from Baltimore Ravens for 2020 5th round pick (170th overall, Broderick Washington). Minnesota paid a fifth-round pick for a specialist who did not solve the kicking situation, leaving little retained value.

Cleveland acquired 2020 3rd round pick (90th overall subsequently traded, Jonathan Greenard) from Houston Texans for Duke Johnson. Cleveland converted a player asset into draft capital without a clear major partner-side outcome.

Jets acquired Alex Lewis from Baltimore Ravens for 2020 7th round pick (225th overall subsequently traded, Kenny Willekes). Depth move with limited long-term impact; historical production on both sides was marginal, supporting an even grade.

Kansas City acquired Darron Lee from New York Jets for 2020 6th round pick (2. The result stays even because the known return does not separate enough to justify a winner.

The Raiders-Chicago Bears exchange brought 2021 7th round pick (247th overall subsequently traded, Michal Menet) to Oakland Raiders and sent out Eddy Pineiro. On hindsight value, this lands as a true even result rather than a default neutral grade; the assigned Raiders grade reflects the same valuation. Draft-capital value drives most of the Raiders-side read

Seattle acquired Jacob Hollister from New England Patriots on 2019-04-29, sending 2020 7th round pick (241st overall subsequently traded, Chapelle Russell) in return. From a hindsight view, the Seahawks neither created a defining win nor suffered a major loss here. The important public-facing detail is the actual exchange — Jacob Hollister for 2020 7th round pick (241st overall subsequently traded, Chapelle Russell) — rather than a forced storyline. That makes the row useful for database completeness while keeping it below the major-trade tier.

Seattle acquired 2019 7th round pick (236th overall, John Ursua) from Jacksonville Jaguars on 2019-04-27, sending 2020 6th round pick (206th overall, Tyler Davis) in return. This transaction fits Seattle's broader roster-building record for 2019: targeted asset movement, limited known aftershocks, and no obvious franchise-altering result. The Seahawks' grade is tied to receiving 2019 7th round pick (236th overall, John Ursua) while parting with 2020 6th round pick (206th overall, Tyler Davis). Jacksonville Jaguars's side is graded C because the exchange appears roughly balanced from the available record.

Chicago acquired the picks that became David Montgomery and Duke Shelley from New England for a package built around Damien Harris, extra draft value, and a future fourth-rounder. Both sides got something, but Montgomery became the strongest realized asset. The Bears win the trade.

Miami acquired multiple picks from New Orleans, while the Saints moved up for Erik McCoy. The Dolphins gained quantity, but McCoy became a high-quality interior offensive-line starter and the best realized asset in the deal. New Orleans wins the trade.

Miami acquired Josh Rosen from Cardinals for 2019 2nd round pick (62nd overall, Andy Isabella) and 2020 5th round pick (153rd overall subsequently traded, Colton McKivitz). Miami spent premium capital on a quarterback reclamation that quickly failed, one of the clearer rebuild-era misses. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Denver traded down from No. 10 in 2019, passing on Devin Bush and collecting the pick used on Noah Fant plus additional capital. The Broncos gained value and flexibility, though the full return became mixed. It was a reasonable draft-board trade rather than a franchise-changing win

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2019 2nd round pick (46th overall subsequently traded, Greedy Williams) and 2020 2nd round pick (34th overall, Michael Pittman) from Washington Redskins/Commanders for 2019 1st round pick (26th overall, Montez Sweat). Hindsight favors the Colts side the edge because the incoming value produced more lasting franchise value than the package surrendered. The grade is still scaled to the trade tier so minor cash or depth moves do not receive exaggerated treatment.

Seattle traded DE Frank Clark to Kansas City for a first-round pick, a future second-rounder, and a pick swap. The compensation was strong on paper, but Seattle failed to turn the haul into comparable impact. Kansas City paid Clark and received meaningful playoff pass-rush moments, including during its Super Bowl run. The Seahawks' grade reflects the gap between the value collected and the value actually converted from that draft capital.

Miami traded Robert Quinn to Dallas for a 2020 sixth-round pick. Quinn gave the Cowboys immediate pass-rush production, while Miami received only modest late-round value. Dallas wins the trade.

Philadelphia acquired Jordan Howard from Chicago Bears for 2020 6th round pick (200th overall subsequently traded, Quez Watkins).

Miami acquired 2019 7th round pick (233rd overall, Chandler Cox) and 2020 4th round pick (135th overall subsequently traded, Kevin Dotson) from Titans for Ryan Tannehill and 2019 6th round pick (188th overall, David Long). Miami dealt Tannehill cheaply before he revived his career in Tennessee, making the return look light in hindsight. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative

Denver acquired 2020 6th round pick (181st overall, Netane Muti) from Washington Redskins/Commanders for Case Keenum and 2020 7th round pick (229th overall, James Smith-Williams). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Kansas City acquired 2020 2nd round pick (63rd overall, Willie Gay) from San Francisco 49ers.

Philadelphia acquired 2020 5th round pick (168th overall, John Hightower) from New England Patriots for Michael Bennett and 2020 7th round pick (235th overall subsequently traded, Jashon Cornell).

Tampa Bay acquired 2019 6th round pick (208th overall; Scott Miller) from Philadelphia Eagles for DeSean Jackson; 2020 7th round pick (228th overall subsequently traded; Sterl. The regrade gives Tampa Bay the clearer football value. The Buccaneers either turned modest capital into the better useful return, recovered value from a replaceable asset, or landed the more meaningful player/pick outcome once the full hindsight is applied

Green Bay traded Ty Montgomery to Baltimore for a 2020 seventh-round pick that became Jonathan Garvin. Montgomery gave Baltimore limited value, while Green Bay turned the situation into a usable late pick. The Packers win modestly.

Jacksonville acquired 2019 3rd round pick (98th overall, Quincy Williams), 2020 5th round pick (165th overall, Collin Johnson) from Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams for Dante Fowler. Jacksonville recovered a third-round pick and additional capital for a player who had not fully hit in Jacksonville. The Rams received useful pass-rush help, but the Jaguars return was reasonable

New Orleans acquired Eli Apple from New York Giants for 2019 4th round pick (132nd overall subsequently traded, Ugo Amadi) and 2020 7th round pick (238th overall, T.J. Brunson). New Orleans received Eli Apple and sent 2019 4th round pick (132nd overall subsequently traded, Ugo Amadi) and 2020 7th round pick (238th overall, T.J. The standard profile, available production record, and medium confidence level supports a conservative grade

Marshall Newhouse started five games at right tackle for Carolina in 2018 before season-ending injury, providing veteran bridge depth

Carolina sent a developmental tackle for a conditional seventh-round pick that was never conveyed, effectively releasing a depth player for nothing

Oakland Raiders traded Khalil Mack and two late 2020 picks to Chicago for two first-rounders, a third-rounder, and a sixth-rounder.

Atlanta acquired Jordan Richards from New England Patriots for 2020 7th round pick (230th overall, Dustin Woodard)

Miami acquired 2020 7th round pick (246th overall, Malcolm Perry) from Chiefs for Jordan Lucas. Miami moved Jarvis Landry for mid/late picks; Durham Smythe and Myles Gaskin softened the loss but did not replace the receiver value. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move

San Francisco moved Eli Harold to Detroit and eventually turned the return into the pick used on Jauan Jennings. Jennings became the best realized asset in the exchange, giving the 49ers a clear win.

Buffalo acquired Corey Coleman from Cleveland Browns for 2020 7th round pick (236th overall subsequently traded, Vernon Scott). Buffalo spent draft capital for a player or rights asset. That can be justified by immediate roster need, but the default value curve favors the team receiving the pick unless the acquired player clearly changed Buffalo’s trajectory

Cleveland acquired 2020 6th round pick (187th overall, Donovan Peoples-Jones) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for Jamar Taylor. Cleveland converted a player asset into draft capital without a clear major partner-side outcome.

Denver acquired Su'a Cravens, 2018 4th round pick (113th overall, DaeSean Hamilton) and 2018 5th round pick (149th overall subsequently traded, Michael Dickson) from Washington Redskins/Commanders for 2018 4th round pick (109th overall, Troy Apke), 2018 5th round pick (142nd overall subsequently traded, D.J. Reed), 2018 5th round pick (163rd overall, Tim Settle) and a conditional 2020 pick (7th round; not conveyed). This was primarily a draft-position exchange, with Denver reshaping its pick stack rather than adding an established player. The grades stay conservative because the historical value depends on how the selected players developed after the swap

Pittsburgh acquired 2018 6th round pick (202nd overall subsequently traded, Jack Cichy) from Cleveland Browns for Sammie Coates and 2019 7th round pick (234th overall subsequently traded, Myles Gaskin). The available record points to a balanced exchange rather than a clear steal. Pittsburgh addressed its roster or draft-board preference, while Cleveland Browns received comparable value in return

Pittsburgh acquired Justin Gilbert from Cleveland Browns for 2018 6th round pick (202nd overall subsequently traded, Jack Cichy). The trade grades against Pittsburgh because the outgoing side carried more durable value, stronger draft upside, or a better long-term return for Cleveland Browns

Seattle acquired Mohammed Seisay from Detroit Lions on 2015-08-02, sending 2016 6th round pick (202nd overall, Anthony Zettel) in return. The value case for Seattle comes down to the direct asset exchange: Mohammed Seisay for 2016 6th round pick (202nd overall, Anthony Zettel). There is no clear evidence of a major downstream swing, so the grade stays modest rather than inflated. For TradeVerdicts, this row matters because it preserves the transaction trail without overstating the long-term Seahawks impact.

Cleveland acquired 2015 3rd round pick (96th overall, Xavier Cooper) and 2015 7th round pick (219th overall, Hayes Pullard) from New England Patriots for 2015 4th round pick (111th overall, Tre' Jackson), 2015 5th round pick (147th overall subsequently traded, Brett Hundley) and 2015 6th round pick (202nd overall, A.J. Derby). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Cleveland acquired 2015 6th round pick (202nd overall subsequently traded, A.J. Derby) from Baltimore Ravens for 2014 7th round pick (218th overall, Michael Campanaro). The available record points to a balanced exchange or low-stakes roster churn, not a clear historical win.

Captain Munnerlyn started 69 games at cornerback and made the Pro Bowl in 2013. Greg Hardy earned a Pro Bowl selection in 2013 with 15 sacks before his career ended in controversy

Atlanta acquired 2003 6th round pick (202nd overall, Waine Bacon); 2004 4th round pick (125th overall subsequently traded, Jason David) from Philadelphia Eagles for Mark Simoneau. Atlanta gained more usable capital or player value on paper, making this a modest Falcons win in the historical ledger

Buffalo acquired 1986 eighth round pick (#202-Tony Furjanic); 1986 twelfth round pick (#313-Brian McClure) from Kansas City Chiefs for 1986 eighth round pick (#196-Lewis Colbert). This was primarily a draft-capital exchange. The available record does not show a decisive long-term separation, so the fair treatment is a balanced grade unless the selected players created a clear outcome gap

The exchange of Bob Horn for 1983 eighth round pick (#202-Earnest Jackson); 1985 seventh round pick (#196-Mark Fellows) stayed close enough in realized value to remain a true even verdict

Washington acquired 1978 eighth round pick (possibly #202-Walker Lee) from San Francisco 49ers for Joe Harris. The cost and downstream value favored the trade partner, leaving Washington on the weaker side of the exchange.

Washington acquired Tom Mitchell; 1978 eighth round pick (#202-Walker Lee) from San Francisco 49ers for Larry Jones (Allen). The available record does not show enough durable separation to force a win/loss label, leaving both sides near even with High confidence.

New England acquired 1976 seventh round pick (#202-Perry Brooks) from Tennessee Titans for Bob Adams (b). Patriots Lean; grade reflects realized player value, pick outcomes, uncertainty, and historical context rather than raw asset count.

Baltimore Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 1967 eighth round pick (#202-Lee Anderson) from Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals for Mike Strofolino. Strict hindsight does not create a decisive winner. The exchange reads as a balanced roster, draft-position, cash, or administrative move, with neither side receiving clearly superior long-term value.
