Arizona Cardinals and New England Patriots
Arizona/St. Louis Cardinals Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
New England acquired veteran corner Duane Starks and pick 145 from Arizona for picks 95 and 168. Starks started six games but struggled, landed on injured reserve and was released after one season. Arizona did not turn its two selections into stars, yet Darryl Blackstock supplied several seasons of linebacker depth, giving the Cardinals the better direct return from a deal that disappointed both sides.
Detroit Lions acquired 2005 5th round pick (145th overall, Dan Orlovsky) and 2005 6th round pick (206th overall, Jonathan Goddard) from New England Patriots for 2006 4th round pick (106th overall, Garrett Mills). The available record does not show enough separation to call a clear long-term winner.
