Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints
Miami acquired Ricky Williams and moved up 11 spots in the fourth round, while New Orleans received Miami's 2002 first-rounder, the lower fourth-round pick and a conditional 2003 selection that became a first-rounder. Williams immediately led the NFL with 1,853 rushing yards in 2002 and remained highly productive in 2003. New Orleans turned the premium picks into Charles Grant and part of the package used to draft Johnathan Sullivan.

Arizona Cardinals and New Orleans Saints
New Orleans paid an enormous package to move from picks 17 and 18 to No. 6 in 2003, also exchanging second- and fourth-round value with Arizona. The Saints selected defensive tackle Johnathan Sullivan, while Arizona's return produced Bryant Johnson, Calvin Pace and Anquan Boldin. Sullivan became a major first-round disappointment and Boldin became a franchise star, creating one of the widest draft-trade gaps of the era.
Assets Received
New Orleans Saints
- Pick 2003 1st round pick (6th overall, Johnathan Sullivan), 2003 2nd round pick (37th overall, Jon Stinchcomb) and 2003 4th round pick (102nd overall, Montrae Holland)
Arizona Cardinals
- Pick 2003 1st round pick (17th overall, Bryant Johnson), 2003 1st round pick (18th overall, Calvin Pace) and 2003 2nd round pick (54th overall, Anquan Boldin)
