Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Chargers
Arizona Cardinals Win Tier: landmark
Confidence: high
The Ryan Leaf trade-up became one of the most infamous quarterback draft failures in NFL history. The Chargers moved up to No. 2 overall and selected Leaf, while Arizona received a major package that included players and premium picks. Leaf's career collapsed quickly, making the Cardinals the clear value winner. It remains a priority indexing page because the Ryan Leaf trade is permanently tied to NFL draft-bust history.
Los Angeles Chargers Win Tier: standard
Confidence: high
Miami acquired wide receiver David Boston from San Diego in 2004 for cornerback Jamar Fletcher and a 2005 sixth-round pick. Boston missed the entire 2004 season with a knee injury and caught only four passes for 80 yards in five games for Miami in 2005. Fletcher played 30 games for the Chargers over two seasons, while the pick became Wes Sims. Modest value was enough for San Diego to win clearly.
