Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 4
Houston sent wide receiver Keshawn Martin and its 2016 sixth-round pick No. 196 to New England for the Patriots' 2016 fifth-round pick No. 166. The Texans used No. 166 on D.J. Reader, who developed into the best long-term NFL player tied directly to the exchange. Martin offered New England short-term depth, but Reader's sustained interior-line value gives Houston the clear hindsight edge.
Trade 2 of 4
Miami moved back ten spots in the sixth round and added Jakeem Grant at No. 186, sending Minnesota No. 196 and No. 227. Grant became a dangerous return specialist and useful receiver for the Dolphins. Minnesota turned the two incoming choices into Stephen Weatherly plus part of the package used to move up for tight end David Morgan.
Trade 3 of 4
Miami sent No. 147 to New England for Nos. 196, 204 and 250. The Dolphins used No. 204 on Jordan Lucas and recycled the other choices through later moves, including a separate trade that helped them reach Jakeem Grant. New England immediately packaged No. 147 with No. 243 to Seattle and ultimately obtained the future fourth-round pick used on Deatrich Wise Jr., a long-term Patriots defender. New England's downstream return lasted longer.
Trade 4 of 4
Minnesota sent Philadelphia picks No. 196 and No. 240 in the 2016 draft to move up to No. 188 for tight end David Morgan. The Eagles selected Blake Countess and Alex McCalister. Morgan played 38 NFL games and became a useful run-game tight end for the Vikings, giving Minnesota the best direct return in the exchange.
