Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles

Philadelphia Eagles Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

Dallas moved from No. 25 to No. 22 in 1997 for tight end David LaFleur, sending Philadelphia the lower first-rounder, a fifth-round pick and a 1998 third-rounder. LaFleur became a four-year Cowboys starter but produced modest receiving totals. Philadelphia missed on Jon Harris, yet later converted the future third-rounder into Allen Rossum and Clarence Love, giving the Eagles a slight overall edge.

Assets Received

Dallas Cowboys
  • Pick 1997 1st round pick (22nd overall, David LaFleur)
Philadelphia Eagles
  • Pick 1997 1st round pick (25th overall, Jon Harris)
  • Pick 1997 5th round pick (155th overall, Luther Broughton)
  • Pick 1998 3rd round pick (70th overall; subsequently traded to New York Giants)
