Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints
Indianapolis Colts Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Indianapolis and New Orleans swapped linebacker Andre Royal for tight end Scott Slutzker at the end of the 1998 preseason. Royal stepped directly into the Colts defense, appearing in 13 games with nine starts that season and making 51 tackles. Slutzker played only three games for New Orleans in 1998 and 11 in 1999. Indianapolis received the more substantial immediate return.
