Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
San Francisco converted the No. 42 pick into two selections: No. 126 in 2007, used on Dashon Goldson, and No. 29 in 2008, used on Kentwan Balmer. Balmer never started a game for the 49ers, but Goldson developed into a multi-year starting safety and later an All-Pro-caliber player. That high-end Goldson outcome outweighed Tony Ugoh's shorter starting run in Indianapolis.
Trade 2 of 2
Tampa Bay sent safety Dashon Goldson and a 2016 seventh-round pick, No. 232, to Washington for a 2016 sixth-round pick, No. 197. The Buccaneers turned No. 197 into Danny Vitale, gaining younger draft capital and salary flexibility. Goldson nevertheless gave Washington the more useful immediate football return, so Tampa Bay's side grades as respectable but weaker in hindsight.
