Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Carolina moved from No. 32 to No. 22 in the first round of the 1995 draft and also received pick 188, sending Green Bay picks 32, 65 and 173. The Panthers selected cornerback Tyrone Poole, who had a long NFL career but spent only three seasons in Carolina. Green Bay used No. 32 on Craig Newsome, a starter on its Super Bowl XXXI championship team, and added two more picks. The Packers’ broader return earns the edge.
Trade 2 of 2
Green Bay Packers received 2000 5th round pick (132nd overall subsequently traded, Paul Smith) in the deal with San Francisco 49ers. Green Bay later used the fifth-round asset as part of a move from pick 108 to 98, where the Packers selected linebacker Na'il Diggs. Diggs played 84 Packers games with 40 starts, giving Green Bay a durable downstream return. That outcome supports a A- for Green Bay Packers. The Green Bay Packers Win verdict weighs documented games, starts, production and connected draft value.
