Dallas Cowboys and Detroit Lions

Detroit Lions Win Tier: landmark Confidence: high

Dallas acquired Roy Williams and a seventh-round pick for first-, third-, and sixth-round selections. Williams never became the No. 1 receiver the Cowboys expected, while Detroit used the first-round pick on long-term starting tight end Brandon Pettigrew and gained two more draft opportunities. The Lions sold at peak value and won clearly.

  • Player Roy Williams
