Trade 1 of 2
New York Giants and Pittsburgh Steelers
New York acquired Ross Cockrell for a 2018 seventh-round pick and immediately received starting-caliber cornerback play. Cockrell appeared in all 16 games, started nine, intercepted three passes, and broke up 11 in 2017. Pittsburgh later packaged the No. 220 pick with No. 79 to move up to No. 76, where it drafted Mason Rudolph. The pick had real trade-up utility, but Rudolph's entire career cannot be credited solely to that seventh-rounder, leaving the Giants with the clearer direct return.

Pittsburgh Steelers and Seattle Seahawks
Pittsburgh Steelers received 2018 3rd round pick (76th overall, Mason Rudolph) in the 2018-04-27 exchange with Seattle Seahawks. Mason Rudolph supplied useful backup and spot-starting quarterback value, making Pittsburgh's side respectable rather than empty. The direct return and the football value it produced drive the hindsight judgment. Against the assets Pittsburgh Steelers surrendered, the result supports Seattle Seahawks Win and a C+ grade for Pittsburgh Steelers.
