Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Denver acquired former All-Pro cornerback Mark Haynes from New York on April 29, 1986, for three draft choices: 1986 Nos. 51 and 139 plus a 1987 second-rounder at No. 55. Haynes gave Denver four seasons and 27 starts, including strong work on Super Bowl teams. The Giants, however, turned the top 1986 pick into linebacker Pepper Johnson, a long-term starter and two-time champion, giving New York the better return.
Trade 2 of 2
New England acquired safety Adrian White from Green Bay in April 1993 for a conditional 1994 seventh-round pick. White played five games with four starts for the Patriots, providing short-term defensive help. The exact conditional pick cannot be tied safely to Butler By'not'e because Denver records trace No. 212 to a different Packers trade. With modest value on both sides, an even C/C is most defensible.
