Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints
New Orleans Saints Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
New Orleans swapped linebacker Chris Bordano for defensive back Kevin Mathis on April 26, 2000. Mathis went on to play 115 NFL games and intercepted 11 passes, while Bordano’s career ended after 33 games and he did not become a Dallas regular. The Saints gained the more durable and productive player without adding draft capital, giving New Orleans the clear edge.
