Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints

New Orleans Saints Win Tier: minor Confidence: high

New Orleans acquired Chris McCain from Miami for a conditional 2017 seventh-round pick that did not convey. McCain appeared in only two games for the Saints, recording one tackle and no sacks before New Orleans waived him in November. Miami therefore received no draft asset, while the Saints received only brief depth service. New Orleans still holds the narrow hindsight edge because two regular-season appearances are more than the Dolphins realized, but the original B-range framing is too generous.
