Carson Wentz

Indianapolis Colts (franchise now Indianapolis Colts) acquired 2022 2nd round pick (42nd overall subsequently traded, Andrew Booth), 2022 3rd round pick (73rd overall, Jelani Woods) and 2023 3rd round pick (79th overall, Josh Downs) from Washington Redskins/Commanders for Carson Wentz, 2022 2nd round pick (47th overall, Phidarian Mathis) and 2022 7th round pick (240th overall, Christian Holmes). Hindsight favors the Colts side the edge because the incoming value produced more lasting franchise value than the package surrendered. The grade is still scaled to the trade tier so minor cash or depth moves do not receive exaggerated treatment.

Indianapolis Colts acquired Carson Wentz from Philadelphia Eagles for 2021 third-round pick and 2022 conditional first-round pick. One-year rental that cost a playoff berth. Eagles clearly won the value exchange.

Philadelphia acquired 2016 1st round pick (2nd overall, Carson Wentz) and 2017 4th round pick (139th overall subsequently traded, Jehu Chesson) from Cleveland Browns for 2016 1st round pick (8th overall subsequently traded, Jack Conklin), 2016 3rd round pick (77th overall subsequently traded, Daryl Worley), 2016 4th round pick (100th overall subsequently traded, Connor Cook), 2017 1st round pick (12th overall subsequently traded, Deshaun Watson) and 2018 2nd round pick (64th overall subsequently traded, Tyquan Lewis).
