Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 3
Chicago sent its 2010 second-round pick to Tampa Bay for defensive end Gaines Adams in October 2009. Adams played only 10 games for the Bears before his unexpected death in January 2010, an outcome no team could have foreseen. Tampa Bay later packaged the No. 42 pick with No. 153 to move up for Arrelious Benn, so the Buccaneers gained value without turning the deal into a franchise-changing haul.
Trade 2 of 3
Tampa Bay moved from No. 42 to No. 39 in 2010 for receiver Arrelious Benn, sending Oakland an additional fifth-round pick. Benn's career was derailed by injuries. Oakland turned No. 42 into picks 44 and 190, selecting Lamarr Houston and Travis Goethel, and used the fifth-round asset in the Kirk Morrison deal that helped produce Jacoby Ford. The Raiders converted the trade-down into substantially more value.
Trade 3 of 3
Philadelphia acquired wide receiver Arrelious Benn and Tampa Bay’s 2013 seventh-round pick on March 14, sending back a sixth-rounder and a conditional 2014 choice. The Eagles used No. 218 on Jordan Poyer, but he played only three games for Philadelphia before being waived. Benn tore his ACL that August and never appeared in a regular-season game for the Eagles.
