Dallas Cowboys and Washington Commanders
Washington traded picks 37 and 67 to Dallas in 1996 to move into the first round at No. 30 and select Penn State tackle Andre Johnson. Johnson never played a regular-season game for Washington and appeared in only three NFL games. Dallas drafted defensive end Kavika Pittman and center Clay Shiver, both multi-year contributors, making the Cowboys the overwhelming winner despite neither becoming a star.
