Atlanta Falcons and Minnesota Vikings

Vikings Win Tier: major Confidence: high

Minnesota moved up three spots in the 2007 second round and selected wide receiver Sidney Rice at No. 44, sending Atlanta Nos. 41 and 121. Rice developed into Brett Favre's top deep threat during the Vikings' 2009 NFC Championship run, posting 1,312 yards and eight touchdowns that season. Atlanta used No. 41 on cornerback Chris Houston, whose uneven three-year Falcons tenure left Minnesota with the stronger payoff.

Assets Received

Minnesota Vikings
  • Pick 2007 2nd round pick (44th overall, Sidney Rice)
  • Pick 2007 4th round pick (121st overall subsequently traded, Marcus Thomas)
Atlanta Falcons
  • Pick 2007 2nd round pick (41st overall, Chris Houston)
