Los Angeles Rams and Washington Commanders
The Robert Griffin III trade remains one of the most famous quarterback gambles of the modern draft era. Washington moved a massive package to select Griffin, who delivered a spectacular rookie season but not long-term stability. The Rams turned the pick into a haul of premium assets, giving St. Louis the stronger long-term result. The deal remains a priority evergreen page because RGIII's rookie season, injury arc, and the Rams' asset haul still draw major trade-history interest.
